Darn that SPELLCHECK! It's never there when you need it. >:^(
Good to know! Upon arrival, the next time I go abroad I'll be certain to triple-check my watch!
Thanks for the tip and please update this post with your findings about ROBOCOPY at the ned of the...
Interesting that the UK follows its own DST day. I wonder if other countries do the same.
I can understand that Mother's Day is not universal but DST surprises me.
Dan
There's another DST at the end of March?! I thought we all had the same DST on March 10th?
I look forward to your findings.
Dan
Thanks for sharing your experience. Hard to believe as quick as RC is that it gets confused by DST!?
I love using ROBOCOPY to perform my file backups but just after DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME occurs it appears to no longer perform a DIFFERENTIAL backup. Instead, ROBOCOPY starts copying as if it were the...
Garlin,
The answer was staring right at me!
Thanks for pointing it out,
Dan
Spunk,
I saw this link the other day and it only supports that the 'ddescr:' option should work but as you can see from the error message I provided, it does not.
Thanks anyway,
Dan
When I execute this script using an ADMIN command prompt:
cscript "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" /ddescr:0x8007007B
I get a not-very-helpful error window stating that...
You're probably right about that but it shouldn't be new to them that writing software for an OS has always been a moving target.
Thanks for your BSoD comment; that alone is enough to make me stay...

Sorry, I see what you're saying now, but am still unclear why DELL would put their reputation on the line of writing software that is prone to BSoD crashes. As you well know, there is a ton of...
Not sure why you say Win10/11 is archaic when there are millions of users out there depending on it.
Hard to believe DELL hasn't patched the BSoD issue, so though I'm still curious about the 1603 error, I no longer feel the urgency, so thanks for that.
Dan
Wow! Are you certain the Dell SA was the BSoD culprit? i.e., did you use the SA to perform a task that then caused the BSoD?
I recently used the HP version of SA and it saved me from an occasional...
From what I can tell, there is no old version of SUPPORT ASSIST lingering around to uninstall and there was no Registry entry that mentioned DELL (in the Reg key described in your link).
Maybe my...
Thanks for your reply, but my 1 TB SSD's "C:" drive is only about 25% full.

No - I bought the PC as is from a local repair shop without any documentation/discs. ...
I have HP's version of Support Assist and it informed me of a driver update that did cure a reoccurring BSoD, so I'm in favor of such software.
Dan
Whenever I try to install Dell's SupportAssist software (on my Win 10/22H2 desktop) it returns this unhelpful message: SUPPORTASSIST FAILED. When I search their log, I see a 1603 error (whatever that...
NTN,
Thanks! Your first suggestion worked!
Dan
I created a desktop shortcut (to a website) that I want to delete but cannot do so.
When I attempt to delete it I get this popup Window:

I never had any problems with my INTERNET SECURITY...
I hope you're right but I've heard from different sources that a UNIVERSAL restore is not guaranteed in the free versions of AOMEI, Macrium, etc...only the paid versions. I'm just looking for a...
Nice, but this feature is not valid for the Macrium FREE edition, which is what I use. Still, I'm curious what extra software the paid version has that allows them to do a UNIVERSAL restore. I...
Thanks - these articles (especially the VSS one) were very helpful!

SInce the backup is not UNIVERSAL, in the event that my PC will not boot is there a way to find...
You're probably right since MR is a solid product, but I don't see the downside to cloning and don't want to ever be in a position where a backup failed (all it takes is for one corrupt incremental...
