Can anybody give more insight into what SiSoft Sandra is talking about here with the disk cache size and where to find the system.ini file it refers to?

I've been trying to find a definitive answer to this question on the internet but can't seem to find one! Can you unzip a *password* protected Zip file in Windows 10 *without* using third-party software? The reason for asking is because a colleague of mine is sending these zip files to clients but some of clients are coming back to her saying they can't open them (I don't know if they're...

Windows 1 minute startup delay

Hi there, I initially posted this on the EightForums as this is on a Win8 machine, but got no response because there is little activity there. That should not be an issue though as this is probably not a specific Win8 problem. I'm hoping someone here is willing to guide me through a troubleshooting walk to get this annoyance out of the way ? Something is adding a considerable delay in my...

Solved Create desktop icon for Mail

Wife would like a desktop icon for Mail but it isn't obvious how to do it. I know it can be done as I have one on my own box but can't remember how I did it or find the web post I must have used at the time. There is a well publicised method which opens Mail at a new message but that isn't what she wants, she just wants the Mail interface to open, as it does from Start or from taskbar.

Hi guys, Wondering if anyone can tell me if this is doable. So I bought myself a 250gb m.2 sata ssd, and put it into the Silverstone MS09 m. 2 to USB enclosure to use as a USB thumb drive. My plan was to have a partition of around 10GB that I would use rufus to create a boot media on to do nice quick clean installs when I need to, another partition of around 20gb that will hold all my, notes...

Hi all, I was hoping this screenshot will tell you what the problem could be. Attachment 203320 (https://www.tenforums.com/attachments/drivers-hardware/203320-pci-bus-error-pcibuserror.jpg) I don't know if it is related, but just before that happened, I used this shortcut: Alt + R arrow. Also, when I use Alt + L arrow in a web browser, instead of bringing me back to the previous page, it would lock my Ubuntu account....

Anyway to configure a VM similar to the way Windows 7 did it? Currently we use hyper-v, but the VM will not run if used on a VPN. It has to be used without logging into the VPN, but then we dont get network access. Windows 7 did it perfect, but not windows 10. Any suggestions?

Well, I'm not having success accomplishing what apparently is supposed to be possible using Powershell. I'm running Win10 1803 and Powershell is Major 5, so the "unblock-file" feature is definitely available. I have recently discovered that I have a number of assorted folders (with sub-folders and files underneath each) that apparently has the security "this file came from another...

I'll try real hard to make this understandable. As I mentioned is seems the MS Forums on Windows 10 is a hard place to get any reaction. Issue: I'm gonna say this might have happened 3 or 4 upgrades back. I suspect it anyway. Back then, all of a sudden the desktop will not co-operate. If I have a window up and I click on the taskbar to look at another window previously opened you'd think that...

A few months back, my computer was updating with the Windows 10 "1803" update. The computer froze at 54% with no signs of activity. I rebooted the computer and got it up and running again. I ran all systems tests on the computer and everything checked out fine. The upgrade began again, this was a mistake. This time it locked up at 54% again and I wasn't able to get it to reboot any longer and was...
