Thanks but what do you mean by "user account"? To investigate this issue one needs to try to send an email with a file attached - to whom? Is there a test recipient for this kind of investigation,...

A mystery wrapped in an enigma.

The file size is similar to the ones that previously could be attached. Would there not be an error message? Anyway, for the time being I think I will use my phone.

In Windows 10 version 22H2 (OS Build 19045, 4046) if I try to attach a file to an email nothing happens. If I make any further clicks the screen goes pale and nothing more can be done without...

Thanks. I attach a screenshot of the version number 22H2 (OS Build 19045.3448) (as opposed to the version number).

I reset Windows Update. On typing "update" in the Windows search box will it then tell me I am "up to date" regardless of whether I am or not? I had been trying to update but it would not complete...

I selected "Update and restart" and went for lunch. When I returned, Windows was up and running. I did not know that the update had failed. Is there a way of finding out if it has failed? This is...

Were you able to stop it by pulling out the USB plug? I have a Rollermouse (wired) so I might try that.

How would this help with an *intermittent* problem?

*Sometimes* when Windows wakes up from sleep and I launch an app, it starts doing all sorts of things such as opening tabs or issuing "enter" commands in a text editor. It does these things so fast I...

Hello -
Many thanks - as far as I know no specific drivers are installed on the computer for the Ergodox.
The phenomenon occurs so rarely now that I cannot reproduce it for investigation.
I do not...

After waking Windows from sleep, *sometimes* the first program I launch relaunches itself about twice a second. Other similar activity may be going on but it is too fast for me to follow. For...

Thanks for all the time you have spent on this, but it is more than I would spend. Life is short for both myself and my client so I have worked round the problem. I do not need the files now.
Now...

[The arrangement for giving replies seems complicated so where this will go I am not sure]
I have run your script and I see both TEMP and TMP environment variables pointing to a folder Temp at...

Malware? I doubt if a bona fide program would delete files without sending them to the recycle bin.
I will have to keep an eye on things on the suspicion that I have a malware infection.

The tmp folder I have is C:\tmp - "Properties" shows nothing else such as it being an alias. Its date is 9 March 2022. I did not create it but I expect it is due to some installation or other. When I...

Does this apply to the folder tmp (not temp)? Where can I find info about what it is for, what it does etc?

I put some PDF files in C:\tmp in order to avoid confusion with existing files. While I was working on them, all but one disappeared. I looked in the recycle bin but they were not there. They are...

Thanks, this might be the thing. Thanks for your time and attention.

Hello -
Thanks, it looks brilliant on the face of it, but I found that it slowed the mouse right down and there seemed to be no working method of restoring the original speed. Closing the app did...

Thanks - I have X-Mouse installed, and the user guide. I thought you were mentioning disk imaging software in connection with mouse speed adjustment, but I could not see the connection. I think there...

Thanks - I don't understand X-mouse and their website has been down for some months, I think. My Web searches have come up with nothing. Why a disk imaging program?

On Windows 10 version 21H2 (OS build 19044, 1766):
Is there a facility of any sort allowing the mouse speed (ratio of mouse movement to cursor movement) to be changed only so long as a button or key...

Many thanks. The X-Mouse has this facility among much else.

Is there a facility of any sort which allows one to press a key on the keyboard to make the mouse cursor move slowly relative to movements of the mouse itself? This is Windows 10.0.19044.
