The Composition APIs come with a robust animation engine that provides quick and fluid motion running in a separate process from your Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app. This provides a consistent 60 frames per second when running your app on an IoT device as well as on a screaming gaming...
Hey!
I'm new here, but if anyone could tell me if they know of any apps that serve the same general purpose as Activator does on a jailbroken iOS device? (If you don't know, it allows you to set up an almost infinite amount of gestures and macros to your liking, so you can, say, if you're...

Hey Gang!
This is a mystery to me. I, primarily, use Firefox as my browser in win 7x64. Yesterday I noticed that the mouse gesture extension stopped working! So, I uninstalled / re-installed..., nothing! Then I tried installing a different gesture extension for Firefox and nothing still...
If I tap on my touchpad 2 times, it registers as a double click. If I tap more than 2 times, it registers as a double click when I am done tapping. Normally, I would expect, say, 4 taps to register as a double click after tapping twice and a second double click after the fourth tap. Instead...
Funny how some of the coolest projects come my way. Today project by Evan Cohen came via a "first time poster" on an internal Microsoft Distribution List, that happened to be subscribed to by a Channel 9 dev, who happened to read and realized it would be great of the Coding4Fun blog. Got to love...
A few weeks ago we highlighted a new Kinect video on Channel 9, Hello Channel 9 and Hello Kinect. Since then we've had not only one but two new videos added by another Niner!

Since installing windows 10 on my packard bell laptop, the mouse pad will no longer scroll with just one finger, im forced to use 2 finger scroll. How can I go back to 1 finger? It seems unfair for this to be forced on you.

I have a windows 7 computer with a stylus pen and I often use the pen like I would use a piece of scratch paper (sometimes with someone looking on). I've been using "paint.exe" - a program created around the time of the dinosaurs, but it still works. As simple as this program is, it still has 3...
