    Windows 8 Custom Icons Recycle Bin

    OK, I firmly believe that the Windows Recycle Bin icons are fuggly. So, I want to change them. I've done it in the past with XP. I've also done it on this machine (Windows 8.1).

    Windows 10 Start List problems

    The situation is I can't add any item to the "start list', which is the list on the left of the start icons. As far as I've read, it's supposed to be as easy as dragging an icon, but it can't be done I get an "x" when I reach the destination at the left. Strange also, is that in my context menu...

    Windows 10 Upgraded to Windows 10. Nothing is working, Everything is wrong.

    Okay, as the title says, I upgraded. But there's a problem: Nothing on this OS seems to be working. Explorer.exe constantly crashes, and a couple of hours ago, the computer itself just froze entirely, with me not even able to do ANYTHING. I fixed the freezing by updating my graphics drivers...

    Windows 8 How To Extract Icons From 16 Bit software On Windows 8.

    As you know when you run a 16 bit program such as Windows 3.1 games on Windows Vista,7 or 8, it does not display the icon. This is because support for 16 bit icon display has been removed from Windows Vista onwards. So you have to choose one of the icons in the "Shell32.dill" folder. But there...

    Windows 8 Desktop Icons Have disappeared

    I have an elderly lady next door that just purchased a laptop with Windows 8. For some reason, she has lost the few icons that were on her desktop (i.e., desktop view as opposed to tiles). Using File Manager, I went to the Desktop folder, right-clicked on the few files there and selected Send...

    Windows 10 Anyone seeing really small control panel icons?

    Like this... Link Removed and these are the large icons... Link Removed I've never had control panel look like this. Large icons used to fill the page. Maybe this goes along with my feeling that everything looks smaller then normal. That's why I increased all my type sizes, but these were...

This has always given me a reasonable size display without things looking to big or having issues with things fitting in windows etc. In the new version of Windows 10 the options on the slider...

    The two attachments show how Net Center looks in W7 (top) and in (bottom) in Win 8. On W8 all icons, the map, and many text options that appear in W7 are missing. Is this what you see in W8? (The same PC here runs both O/S.)

    Windows 10 Just started testing 10056

    I have not had much time with this build, but it is nice to see some of the normal icons coming back, like the Trash bin. They have changed the look of the Weather App but it doesn't look as polished as the Windows 8 one. They have moved the power button and some folks don't like the new...
