I collected videos for about 10 years, so I still have years worth of VHS and DVD to watch before getting rid of it. That includes many DVD box sets for TV shows that I binge watch. No real difference really, except that I've missed out on anything recent.

Is that a captcha message?

Those with pets know about daylight savings, or the fact that their animals who expect them to be home or fed at a certain time get weird until they adjust to the fact that you decided to leave/come home from work and feed them at a different time for some reason all of a sudden.

Win7 Pro 64 Suddenly Reports as "....not genuine"
Tripredacus replied to WalksInSilence's topic in Windows 7
I can't make use of an edited output. If you are wary about sharing the full output of the two tools, you can PM me the full information. EDIT: since you used rearm (should not have been done) now you are in grace period. You can run the slmgr /ato as suggested above, and if you get an error, relay that error here. -
I never got one of those boxes at the time either. As back then there was a satellite TV setup at my house, but I had gotten rid of it sometime in 2011 or 2012. At that point in time, I did end up getting a digital converter box that I had used sparingly, but I found without having a million channels at my disposal, I ended up not watching very much. Now it is only to watch sports that are on broadcast TV. I have still resisted having purchased any streaming subscriptions, but there are enough DVDs I can watch if I want to become a couch potato.

Those converter boxes are worthless now in many areas, including my own. As they were from the 2010s they do not support ATSC 3.0 which some operators have changed to. Even my primary HD TV cannot get most channels anymore because of this change so you have to buy a new OTA receiver (or new TV I suppose) to be able to receive them.

I suspect that this type of reasoning is made up by people who aren't or haven't any farming experience. I did work (and live) on a farm for some time and I can say that it makes no different if there is DST or not. You work from sunrise to sunset (or beyond but indoors) and you determine what time to wake up based on what time the sunrise is the next day.

Win7 Pro 64 Suddenly Reports as "....not genuine"
Tripredacus replied to WalksInSilence's topic in Windows 7
Send to me the output of slmgr -dlv as well as run the MGADiag program and use the copy button to output the data to a text file and send that along also. @Mr.Scienceman2000 never recommend a change of product key when troubleshooting activation issues, as it can cause problems for determining cause. -
Times out for me.

I still have CRT TVs in my house.

Installing Windows 7 on a 10th Gen Comet Lake Laptop
Tripredacus replied to Artisary's topic in Windows 7
Going through the email archives it seems I can come up with some sort of response. BUT remember that my experience is in manufacturing and not necessarily in real world regarding this, And also, this is from a long time ago and someone may have come up with some new tricks. Of course there isn't a blanked "Windows 7 doesn't work on NVME" as there are examples of it working, even in my own experience. It isn't a cut and dry situation, as there are many factors involved: - whether UEFI is enabled or not - whether the M2 socket runs on SATA or PCIe lanes, or whether the board uses separate controllers for modes like AHCI, RAID or if it detects an NVME or NVME capabilities. - the NVME itself may not support booting an OS or the board may not allow booting an OS on NVME And all of the above includes the various firmware settings, ones you can set, ones that are locked, firmware versions, controller capabilities, board capabilities using UEFI/MBR options. When I started testing Win7 on NVME it was 2016. The typical issue we'd see was getting an 0x7B bugcheck and adding the storage drivers didn't fix it. I had seen issues where a Samsung NVME would boot an OS (Windows 8.1 and 10) on certain boards but not be bootable on other boards. Never got Windows 7 to boot on a Samsung NVME. Was able to get Windows 7 to boot on an Intel NVME on some boards but not all. Also, performance issues were observed on this Intel testing. Other instances where Windows 7 on Intel NVME would hard lock at POST. So for the production environment (which trickles down to personal preference) was to use NVME on Windows 7 only as storage drive, and only use M2 SATA for booting the OS. With the large amount of things that are involved with whether it will work or not is why I decided to not bother with it at all. Of course, those who want to run experiments certainly can, but be aware you may well run into the roadblocks that are present in the board or NVME firmware that you likely won't be able to change.- 8 replies

The Explorer shell is the thing everyone has a problem with. Alternate shells would solve the issues.

Installing Windows 7 on a 10th Gen Comet Lake Laptop

The first piece of potential incompatibility I see in the specs is the presence of an NVMe.- 8 replies

So far in my experience, Windows 11 is way worse than Windows 10. Mostly from a usability standpoint. While I have changed to Windows 10 on 2 computers now, I don't see myself changing to Windows 11 unless they fix some issues. First of all, 100% of my Win11 experience so far has been in offline or segregated networks. The UX is extremely slow and some portions do not even work. For example if I were to open an Explorer window (in any way you can think of doing it, like putting c: in the run box, doesn't matter) it will open a blank white window for about 3-4 minutes before it actually will show you the contents of the thing you are looking at. Be is c: or Libraries, doesn't seem to matter. I've considered running a trace on explorer to see what it is trying to do.

Why do USB thumb drives not claim Windows-7 compatibility?
Tripredacus replied to Nomen's topic in Windows 7
Many times, the compatibility or requirements text on a peripheral speaks directly to any particular software that the vendor has for the device, either packaged with it or from their website. And the OSes listed also tie directly to their support policy. As we know, not supported doesn't mean it doesn't work. -
How do I customize the menu for WinSetupFromUSB ?

MSFN will be online as long as donations allow
Tripredacus replied to Tripredacus's topic in General Discussion
Now will be the time to revisit and validate any archiving that needs to be done. -
Not sure where this topic was supposed to go (it was posted into GD), if it is wrong, we can move it again later.

I had used KB2868725, KB4474419 v3 and KB4490628 The system is completely isolated on the network so it can't do things like update the root certificate list. Which I did download but there is no instruction on how to use it. I had gotten the link from Event Viewer as a log was made every time I looked at the cert on the file in question. These updates made that event log go away also.

I suppose it depends on what they mean by "less secure technology" If you are using POP3 or IMAP I have doubts that their servers can tell what client you are using.

Don't post about politics or wars on MSFN, do that on other forums.

A little from both, I have now resolved this issue. It is weird because I'm certain I had previously installed some SHA2 support on that system already. I can read the certs now on the driver but still having an issue using them, it must be unrelated.
