Yup, did that.....and there it was... an exe file buried a couple of folders deep.

Created a short cut on the desktop, and bingo - opens the maintenance tool!

Many thanks

This is a commercial photo printer. The staff are required to carry out a nozzle check every morning before production.

I have been using just a shortcut to the print icon, but there have been a...

Pretty much a straightforward question. Its easy enough to create a desktop shortcut to the printer itself - just go to Devices & Printers, drag the...

Let me make this clear. I had already done what you suggested before I even posted here.

My post requesting help at the Google Community is still unanswered after.... five weeks...

Yeah, I've given up hope of getting any support from Google. They are worse than useless.

As those of you who have helped me previously will know, we have four near-identical Windows 10 computers, all HP Elite 8000 series, all running Win 10 22H2 64 bit

We have Google Drive for Desktop...

OK, so just to clarify from our standpoint.

The local network would still have to have an internet connection, because Google Drive for Desktop and Dropbox run on all of them as that is how...

This is worth consideration. Here is some clarification (in no particular order)

1. All five computers have Google Drive For Desktop connected to the same account. There is, of course, a Google...

Well, it looks like we'll be unwillingly dragged kicking and screaming into Windows 11.

I have actually used it on a another computer, and there are several aspects I find particular annoying,...

Thanks for the corrected date.

I looked at the possibility of Win 11 on our existing systems, but there didn't seem any point, since we'd be no better off due to the fact that Win 11...

(Those of you who have helped me in the past - and whom I have helped in the past - might remember that I used to own a small Photo Lab business with several computers. That business now belongs to...

This machine has not faulted since I started this thread. Clearly it doesn't want to fault when anyone else it watching. I am beginning to wonder if it was an update issue that has been resolved by a...

I didn't know about this one - thanks for the heads-up

Two Wednesdays ago (I know it was then because the shop staff call Wednesdays "Weird Wednesday" due to the number of issues we seem to have...

OK, so here are some screencaps from Hard Disk Sentinel

Thanks for the advice, and I may eventually be forced to do a clean install, but that has always been a last resort for me, not the first step. There are seven computers where I am at the moment. if...

This is not either of the computers in my profile so here's some specs



A large part of the time, this computer operates quickly and well. A couple of seconds to open Firefox or Chrome to the...

Hmmm, hadn't thought of doing that. I will try it, thank you

OK, I did this, but did not expect the result I got.

I left the laptop on and running overnight with the Task manager...

HP Laptop Model 14-bw027AU

Most of the time, this laptop functions reasonably quickly as long as I am actively using it, but if I leave it...

Yeah, that was the first thing I did. Its set to the top one... "Open each folder in the same window"


In any case, I got around the problem. I have one folder shortcut that I needed users to be...

I know this is an old thread, but I have been experimenting and have some results that might be relevant here

I started experimenting because I have been using QTTab, and was somewhat dismayed...

Yep, I that is one of the results I have seen, but I don't appear to have any trouble browsing the network. When I click on "Network" in the navigation pane, I can see and browse to all computers. I...

While setting up some network shortcuts in our shop network, I discovered two entries in the Explorer address bar that I have never seen before. Among the names of all the other computers on the...

OK guys - just reporting that this worked near-perfectly (and the only imperfection was my bad!)

I did the whole restore offline and changed the PC name to "SpareComputer" so that it would not...

Sorry, I think that perhaps I used poor terminology. Since I am using Macrium Reflect, I thought it would be obvious I was using disk imaging to back up my system disk.



To be clear, I have...

OK




OK, so if I am understanding you both correctly, if I were to image the system disk of Computer A, and restore it to the HDD on Computer B, and even if I had them both connected to the...
