Recently updated to Windows 1903, the update process went well but some of my software have stopped working. Photoshop CS6 stuck at "Initializing". I have done the resetting of preferences to no avail. Even re-installed it several times. Same with my Snagit that freezes every after taking a...

Hi, no matter what I put the files in "Large Icons" status, they go back to "Details" status after some time on their own. I want them to stay as "Large Icons" permanently. That only happens when I access my hard drives through Quick Access Toolbar. My windows version is 1809.

At first I connect a SmartPhone through USB cable to my WinDesktop computer and open a directory on this SmartPhone in my local Windows Explorer. The default view is (presumably) "Media View". Right side of WinExplorer shows columns like Artist, Track number, Type" although I am browsing a pure...

Q. Is there not a way to adjust the default icon for Control Panel, NOT as a shortcut but from the actual original desktop icon in Themes> Desktop Icons? It seems to be the only one that you cannot change the default icon for. I'm wondering if there might be a reghack specific to Windows 10 that...

Hi After Windows updated today I decided to try running Chrome again, as I've posted in the past, after running it for years even on this computer, every time I install it my computer just slows to a crawl the second that I open it. Well It is in and so far my computer seems to be running...

Whenever I download photos off my camera, they go to "libraries" "documents", "my documents" - I want them to go to my C: drive and not to the libraries path. How do I change that? Thanks.

I left GTA V to download overnight last night, but my computer restarted during the download, preventing the game from finishing the download. I'm now looking for a way to turn this off. I still want the updates to download automatically, but I don't want them to install and restart my computer...

When I go in my 64bit Win 7 -->General tab then there are currently two DNS servers entered Preferred DNS server 8.8.8.8 Alternate DNS server: 192.168.0.1 So in case the first google DNS server fails my router will be contacted and the DNS servers entered there will be used. I told my router...

Hi I just started trying to use Windows 10 screen capture. Windows Key + G, and push the red button. It works for capturing the video from both games and the internet, but I'm not getting sound on either one. Like most Windows apps it's very light on settings, I'm not finding any preferences...

When thinking about your app data, one aspect to consider is data lifetime. In general, when it comes to the lifetime of data, you have two options: local data, which exists as long as the app that created it remains installed, and roaming data, that will continue existing online even after your...

Link Removed The user experience for roaming app data is similar to a magic trick. Work is done behind the scenes to create the illusion that data is moving from place to place when, in fact, all that really happens is data gets copied and destroyed, over and over. The data itself never...

Users today are mobile, transitioning from one device to the next throughout the day. Increasingly, these same users expect (or even demand) to take their data with them. Fortunately for us, roaming app data makes this a reality. Today, we kick off a two-post series that explores how to use...
