    TenForums Saturday Live Chat 03-SEP-2016


     Welcome to TF Saturday Live Chat


    Come and meet your fellow Ten Forums members, Windows Insiders and enthusiasts: next TF Saturday Live Chat will be on Saturday 3rd of September 2016.

    information   Information
    TF Saturday Live Chat will be held in three parts to allow as many members from various time zones as possible to join.You can of course participate in all sessions if you so wish.

    The TF Saturday ive Chat will be recorded, remember it when participating in chat, showing webcam or presenting your desktop. Extracts of recording might be posted on Ten Forums.


    • TF Saturday Live Chat - Part 1


    • TF Saturday Live Chat - Part 2


    • TF Saturday Live Chat - Part 3
      • Start 23:59 (11:59 PM) UTC
      • End 02:00 (2 AM) UTC on September 4th
      • Part 3 Start & End times in your local time zone: Part 3 Start & End
      • Countdown to the start of the Part 3: Part 3 Countdown


    The chat will be online 30 minutes before the start time of each part for you to test the connection and join, and will remain online as long as there are attendees, at least two hours.

    A link to each live chat session will be posted here in this thread 30 minutes before the start of each part. The TF Saturday Live Chat is a group video meeting but to participate with audio and webcam video is optional; if you so decide, you can just listen and participate with text chat.

    See this tutorial for instructions in joining the live chat using the Lync Windows App as a guest if joining from Windows 8 or later: Lync App - Join an Online Meeting as Guest - Windows 10 Forums

    If you will join using Windows 7 or older or any other OS or do not want to install the Lync App you need a small browser plugin. See this Microsoft support article for instructions in joining using the Skype for Business Web App plugin: Join a Skype Meeting with Skype for Business Web App - Skype for Business

    Tip   Tip
    Easy to follow illustrated instructions to join using a browser and Skype for Business Web App plugin​ in less than a minute, see this post: Solved TenForums Saturday Live Chat 03-SEP-2016 - Page 2 - Windows 10 Forums


    You can of course join using Skype for Business app if you have an organisational Skype for Business Account. Please remember that in that case your personal information will be available for and seen by all participants. I recommend to at least disable your contact card showing the phone numbers. As far as I know there's no way to disable showing your account name, avatar and email address when joining with your Skype for Business account.

    Notice that whichever of the above mentioned methods you use to join the chat you will not need any Ten Forums, Skype, Skype for Business, email or MS Account. Simply select a screen name for you and join as a guest. It would be nice if everyone would use their forums username.


    All TF Saturday Live Chat participants can share their desktop and show whatever their want to in live session. If you have a neat Windows 10 trick, tip, workaround or anything else you would like to show to your fellow members, please send me a PM about it latest by Friday evening (July 29th) and we'll make it happen.

    See you geeks on Saturday the 3rd! Please post all your questions, ideas and such about the Live Chat in this thread.

    Cliff you have wrong time or rather wrong date set in your reminder :)

    The sessions start on 3rd at 16:00, 20:00 and 23:59 (4 PM, 8 PM & 11:59 PM) UTC, your CEST time at 18:00, 22:00 and 01:59 (6 PM, 10 PM and 1:59 AM).

    It means that the last part is for you and me (Central European Summer time) early AM hours on Sunday the 4th, your reminder is set to early AM hours on Saturday, 24 hours too early :)

    Ten Forums gives two lucky winners a free license of Macrium Reflect Home edition, courtesy of Macrium Software (one license is at the moment worth €62.95).

    Rules are simple: answer the poll, post your reasoning in this thread before 12 noon UTC Saturday 3rd of September 2016. You must both answer the poll and reply this thread to participate. Posts from Ten Forums admins, mods and team members will not participate in drawing.

    Two winners are drawn in next TenForums Saturday Live Chat on September 3rd, see TF Live Chat thread for schedule. Drawing will be done live during the chat, geeks as we are in a geeky way :)

    TF Live Chat will also include live presentations of Macrium Reflect & viBoot, see post #2 in chat thread for more information.

    OK geeks, start posting about your backup software & strategy :)

    Judging by the interest @Cliff S it's just you and me online on Saturday :). Good to know there's at least one witness for the Macrium Draw!

    @Kari maybe you need to make it clear, using the SfB addon or Lync app also lets them join anonymous if they wish(you know, the shy ones and the TFH(Tin Foil Hat) ones TenForums Saturday Live Chat 03-SEP-2016-tinfoil.gif.
