Do I have sets or not? On settings, it shows I have sets with options. But this does not show sets as enabled????Attachment 190160
Same thing happened with last build. Sometimes sets shows up and sometimes not.

That's odd. I've had SETS enabled since it got introduced, except it took a while for it to appear on first build available.

That screenshot of "Screen sketch" toolbar was made with Screenpresso

But Screen sketch is becoming fine simple alternative (with history etc..)

Hmmm...


Gotta pay to use offline... (and yep I block everything)

Enabled bootmenupolicy legacy and F8 still works but wondering if, and why, safe mode, with networking, is worth going to? On entering safe mode I kept getting worthless popups until I connected to 'net. So I tried running Defender and that was not available? Part of the OS? Malwarebytes not allowed either. I know Defender has an option to run outside 10 but that's not the point. Might as well run Rkill in normal mode if trying to remove malware/virii etc., as I see it.

It's a Video Codec similar to x264 and x265 HEVC, but it's distributed under BSD license and has been developed by Google.

It's a high efficiency codec and YouTube uses it for streaming.

Thanks, Slice.

I had it the first time it came out, but the next update took it away from me and it's been in hiding ever since.

No, I was just joking. @Wynona, I do have sets on one computer. I don't really know why having sets is better than opening your documents that you're working on - say Excel, Word, Powerpoint and the like, and working on them versus having sets which does the same --- or maybe my brain is too limited in its scope and used to the 'old' way of doing things to see an advantage to sets.

So far, I don't really understand what Sets is supposed to do, which is why I want to try it out. I'm kinda old school too.
