I have a lot of empathy & understanding for my colleagues in the Forum. However, I realise as new folks keep coming to the forum, we must persevere. The point of a forum, as we see it, the aim, is to help people, guide, instruct, offer some insight & enlightenment & maybe, even fix...

In early March, Anthony Graber, a 25-year-old staff sergeant for the Maryland Air National Guard, was humming a tune while riding his two-year-old Honda motorcycle down Interstate 95, not far from his home north of Baltimore. On top of his helmet was a camera he often used to record his...

Here is a point to debate: I have often wanted to know when a particular registry key has been added or even modified. Several times, over successive operating systems, I have asked for these two fields to be added to each key. Unquestionably, there are going to be size and access issues but I...
