Thanks. UGH this is so frustrating. I used their reg file, changed it just to point where my PHP is and it still fails to pickup args. I wonder what in the world could be wrong?

Hi. I just rebuilt my box, and I forgot to export my custom file associations. One of them is my configuration to allow PHP files to be ran at a command prompt like EXE files, where I can just type...

Ah well, thanks for the answer!

Hi. I wrote a C# program where I can send keystrokes to Firefox. I can say "next" and have it send the right arrow key and "back" to send left for reading online. Problem is, speech recognition...

Thanks for the suggestions, but my box is really being abstinent - neither option worked to do what I wanted, but I went ahead and used the tool to adjust the "This PC" menu to add most of what I...

Alas, neither of the suggestions had the desired effect. Thanks though.

I find it really annoying that I have to scroll up the left nav bar to quick access when I open a Explorer window. I went to View, Options and set "Open File Explorer to: Quick Access" but it still...

Man it's so annoying. About 3/4 of the time when I reboot Windows forgets that I had turned off the "Always show all icons in the notification area" setting so when the system comes up, I have a...

Yep, operations are identical. After the brouhaha with TrueCrypt I switched to VeraCrypt and didn't notice any UI changes. Great software.

I love the Corsair Carbide series Air 540 case. I didn't do much in the way of snazzy design of the insides though, I've never been particularly interested in crazy light setups.

I just built a new machine a month ago:

Core i7-7700K @ 5.2ghz
Corsair water cooling
ASUS ROG Maximus IX Hero mobo

ASUS GTX1080 STRIX-OC video

Well, I'm not sure as I don't use sleep but I do use hibernate and when my system is hibernating, tapping the keyboard will wake it up and make it boot.

What are you trying to accomplish? Are you referring to a hard drive or a USB stick? If the former, I'm not sure what you mean to accomplish by marking inactive. If the latter, do you mean making...

Is this PC a member of a domain? There is a GPO setting that can prevent the use of toolbars; perhaps it is being applied to your PC.

Rather than fiddle with the Windows format settings, you'd be better off just building a date code from the current %date% results. Changing the Windows setting is a large, full range change. For...

Bump

Ahh, thanks. I didn't make a registry change, I had followed a website instructions on renaming a folder in systemapps to prevent it from running. I had no idea Cortana was that involved in...

Alas, that's not really a solution that's just working around the issue. It worked fine for months like this, so I'd rather not give up my launch bar if I can avoid it. Thanks though.


Nope. ...

Hi. Today, out of the blue, my start menu has started to hide behind the taskbar. It's rather annoying, as the area you type in is obscured by the taskbar now so I cannot see what is being typed:

Hi. I installed the Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 10. I went to appwiz.cpl and to Windows features, scrolled down to the RSAT section and everything is checkmarked. However, when...

Bump. Still an issue. Anyone have any idea how to fix it so the "always show all icons" stays disabled?
