Thanks for your response, I will look into those and see if there is anything that can help. I do use Google Chrome, but I don't think it's related at all. It feels like a Windows thing, more than...

My laptop has been a constant victim of these godforsaken programs that run every 5 minutes when idle, and it's starting to make me angry.

It's either the Windows Modules Installer Worker, or...

I have an old Windows XP Dell Dimension E520 computer that's now running Windows 10 on 32-bit architecture. The CPU is a 64-bit processor. I want to know if the CPU is fully compatible with Windows...

You know, I just realized it's probably the 3$ VGA cable I'm using.

I followed your instructions, but during the setup of the old driver, my monitor went black. I wasn't able to get back into Windows so I had to shut it down and reboot.. I don't know what damage this...

I recently upgraded a Dell Dimension E520 from XP to Windows 10. I'm having trouble getting an Acer AL2016W monitor to fit in its maximum resolution of 1680x1050. When i choose this resolution in the...

I want to control my music from the right-click context menu using play/pause, next, previous and stop... is this possible? I also wouldn't mind adding some keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+F, and...

Earlier today I was downloading files from my browser and my computer went to sleep halfway in. This random sleeping happens occasionally. The event viewer doesn't mention anything about overheating,...

I second MBAM Pro and Windows Defender. Malwarebytes has this new thing out called Anti-Exploit, but I don't know why anti-exploit is a thing all of a sudden.. kinda feels like a business tactic.

Doesn't work, shows only the 'Close Window' option

I will have to try this ;]


I like this way but my bluetooth button isn't showing up there, probably because the dongle needs enabled first.....

That's what I've been doing, but is there a quicker alternative to doing it the Task Manager way? I wouldn't mind a desktop shortcut if it was possible to restart it from there. I actually created a...

Is there any way to add the Device Manager to the taskbar or start menu? I have a bluetooth dongle that I always need to disable/enable from that menu.

Hmm.. seems that when Windows Explorer freezes up, the right-click menu is inaccessible, just when I need it most. I wonder if there are any alternatives or workarounds to this.

Thanks for your help guys, I finally managed to get it working! Shutting down or restarting didn't seem to help any, but unplugging/replugging while awake caused the donger to come alive! Disabling...

I looked through this and some Amazon reviews...

I bought this super cheap generic bluetooth dongle. The reviews gave me the feeling it wouldn't work, but i thought how hard could it possibly be? The reviews were right, it doesn't want to work...

Great tutorial. Sometimes when Windows Explorer crashes, ctrl+alt+delete doesn't always open the Task Manager in time, or may it be unresponsive altogether when i need it most. This is a great...

Hey that's a better alternative, this way you don't have to look at, or rely on a shortcut the whole time. This is great, thanks :]

Sometimes when Windows Explorer crashes, opening Task Manager with Ctrl+Alt+Delete takes awhile and sometimes i don't think it will pull up. I would like to create a shortcut to restart explorer.exe...

I decided to install them and after doing so I realized I installed the wrong files, I actually needed something called "Nvidia cuDNN" lol

I can't tell the...

As far as i know the only Nvidia driver installed is the graphics driver, which i think was auto installed by Windows Update. I just updated it to 341.95, but the CUDA installer wants to update it...

I'm trying to install the Nvidia CUDA driver for an image upscaling program. My computer is an older laptop with Nvidia Geforce G105M graphics card, but looks likes its CUDA capable..? :]

I turned off Disk Defragging as shown below, but nothing has changed.

Every 5 minutes the computer still acts up. Why?

I'm having the same problems. A decent workaround, assuming you're going to share them anyway, is to upload them to a service like Imgur that automatically strips away the properties for you.

Thanks, I never knew this existed here. I could only find the Disk Defragmenter program.


Good point. If that's the case, it's unfortunate that it's never able to finish because I don't give it...
