Hi folks,
1809 broke a few unexpected things and I'll post if interested. A drag I find myself spending 3 hours or so checking the things that [previous versions broke or reset to then list the new issues. But for now, this one seems interesting and is brand new with 1809:
After 15-20 minutes...
Another powershell script. This one is for monitoring systems and to send alerts if a monitored system is no longer pingable. It generates a balloon notification and an email alert. It is similar to my laptop tracking script. Run the script once to configure it then add your hosts you wish...
On a vanilla Gateway PC with 6GB RAM (50%), 500GB available disk space, the HD has started showing a very periodic 100% write usage (~12 sec on, 1 sec off). The Read usage is quite normal. This makes the system extremely slow. Resource Monitor reports many processes with PID 4, but none seem...

U'll, really, like what it gives. (Hint) a lot like its (last) name. Not quite what an Applications folder gives & much along the lines of the old start menu listings. :) & bonus, don't have to reset anything after booting-up, as you do w/ the...

I've noticed several threads discussing some of the annoying "protections" put in place by Microsoft in Win7. On the one hand, at this moment, I share the sentiment that it's my computer, therefore, I ought to be able to access whatever I want. On the other hand, I'm all too aware that rogue...

Hi
When I start Windows, Explorer always starts on it's own. The view downloads box pops up, showing this:
file:///C:/ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/Start%20Menu/Programs/Startup/Ralink%20Wireless%20Utility.lnk
And asks me whether to open it or save it.
Now all of the icons on my desktop and...

In C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs I changed the start menu the way I wanted it to be.
However, when I open the start menu, there are some additional icons e.g internet explorer ( which I do not see in...

I like Vista's and now Win7's search bar within the start menu, but still like to keep my start menu at least a bit organized.
I am able to move stuff around like I want for the individual users start menu but am receiving "file or folder" open error messages whenever I create a new folder and...
