vinifera

actually they are bound but as that article by mvp(?) said, it wasn't reported enough times and I read few weeks ago article from one of developers from early vista(longhorn), how they do development & bug fixing and IF certain team didn't report on time the bug, they leave it unfixed even if they are aware of it they leave it unfixed for next version of winblows so either they fixed this in w8, and if vista doesn't have this bug then it is limited only to w7 users which explain above situation

this is lame, 7 along with vista is BOUND to get major bugfixes

but it doesn't always run the 2nd one I'd say at least in my case, this happens every 2nd day

for some time I noticed I get 2 explorer.exe running, dunno when it all started, except that 2nd one takes much less memory than original "needed one" when I run Process Explorer I do see it is ran under different services but not much info is revealed except what info baloon shows I can kill it no problem, and nothing happens any ideas ?

so there is no fix for this ? I see article is from 2009

stiff ISO into RAR or ZIP or whatever and put password on it this way only you know password but as told CD/DVD won't be installable as you'd have to extract/de-pack the contents out

nice to know that, ty

which doesn't mean surfing is dead the only disadvantage that older operas like 10 and 11 have is that they don't support 3D models on HTML5 crap as far as CSS 3, with opera 11 I haven't come across a site that shows it all, therefore its again ok as v11 supports about 90% of CSS 3 while v12 supports even more things than v11 and those sites that refuse to make you enter with that horrid message "your browser is obsolete, upgrade to ...." is BS I have hex edited my Opera 11.52 string that now shows Firefox 25 and all those sites let me in now and work just as normal ------------------------------ on another story regarding win8 rants, MVPS HOSTS (winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm) have changed their localhost number from 127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0 explanation:

I even wouldn't be so much against "new" Opera if they optimized the **** program itself this way it behaves exactly as Chrome/Iron, and what bugs me about it/them is: 1. each added extension (plugin) consumes the same amount of RAM as original Process (app) so if Opera by default takes 100 MB RAM, and you add 5 miserable plugins, they will cost you 500 MB + 100 MB of Opera (no tabs) and for what ? , simple plugin as "add download button" to UI takes 100 MB - fantastic I'd rather shoot myself in foot than buying extra 4 Gig's of RAM for this monster, and this worths for Chrome too 2. they call it modern and optimized browser, but it only works fluidly on multi core CPU's, single core ones choke on it is that what is modern these days ? to be unoptimized piece of crap that simply forces people to buy new machine/parts ? using webkit fork aka Blink which I'd rather call Snail doesn't excuse them from having such sluggish browser one my personaly favored ALSO based on webkit is QtWeb, that one is light, portable (bit sucks their forums are fubar but oh well) BUT its also based on webkit and is updated accordingly, so if THEY can have ultra light browser that uses webkit, why can't Opera too ??? as I understand, but maybe I was dropped on head who knows... Layout engine and Shell (which is actually app with hooks to Layout engine) are NOT TOGETHER !!!!

microsoft.... back in the days one would only need to register active-x (.ocx) and it would work

@ tomasz86 its a resource hog just like its clones

think I'll pass

they switched to fast upgrade release cycle instead waiting for bunch of hotfixes to pile up and make service pack

it didn't actually solved the issue but it reduced "the happening" used the 1st one with deleting all the "bags" unfortunately I don't know what makes OS (from time to time now, before it was constantly), to forget changed setting just for that one folder also another weird thing, when I ran yesterday for example after "fix", nirsoft's bag view, it wrote "Icons" view, but when I entered the same folder few minutes later it reverted to thumbs again the only logical explanation I can imagine is that desktop folders share desktop icon size? - as mine on desktop are larger than 32x32

thanks it helped !

its not ripoff of Chrome, it IS Chrome !

I have folder created on desktop I keep only shortcuts in it to all my sys apps but **** folder ALWAYS reverts to thumbnail view no matter what view i set it when i'm init the only thing I did with it is change its icon via properties-customize how to fix this stubborn behavior ?

get yourself Windows 8 Embedded at least during its beta it was possible to remove metro crap components it should be same as finished product too

IMHO your RAM is only problem, especially if you are putting 64bit windows on it increase it to +1 GB and you won't need any tricks for OS now unfortunately increase page file so your HDD covers the shortage of memory

doesn't simply re-inserting things via DISM does the date change ?

the only use of FB what I saw is to find maybe lost relatives who got themself a computer and internet but youngsters lost their ways of living and socialising in somewhat standard way (not saying normal coz even without it aint normal what they do these days)

always hated and always will all this era of "social" crap IRC, e-mail and forums rule !

disable UAC and pufff no Metro

I always go by logic, not feeling if X program (no matter which, there are tons of them) show some file or files are fragmented, then they are fragmented there is no reason why should X company dictate what MEANS to be fragmented by THEIR standard and what doesn't this is the same reason why people are customizing their OS-es because given UI isn't good and because certain components are useless yet again imposed by X company

you can encrypt files or stiff them in encrypted archive but then it won't install by "nature" you can scratch the cd/dvd but then it won't be readable at all
