Many tablet users have been complaint about win 10 ui on tablet mode. Unfortunately Microsoft has been putting desktop ui on tablet mode and it has been a backwards experience for many. I am wondering if  stardock could come to rescue us with a modify start screen for win 10, adding some ui options similar to this post over at windows central forum http://forums.windowscentral.com/windows-10-general-discussion/358984-poll-should-microsoft-add-ui-options-continuum.html

If you have installed a pirate copy (AKA cracked) version of WindowBlinds 5, please be aware that the crack is faulty and WindowBlinds will cease to function correctly on your computer.

To fix this you just need to uninstall WB and if you wish install a purchased copy of WB, or the trial.

To uninstall, you can either wait for your computer to login, unload WB (either using wbconfig, display properties, or from a command prompt calling WBLOAD UNLOAD) and then uninstall WB.  Or you can ...

Hi, I have bought WindowsBlinds in the past, and installed it. It worked fine. I uninstalled it for a little while, and the reinstalled it. Here's the problem:

A windows pops up with the buttons "Enter Product Key","Purchase Product Key"..etc. 3 buttons. As usual. I hit the button to enter my product key, doesn't work. I hit the demo button, doesn't work. When I hit purchase, it opens a mini browser inside the box with the usual purchase cart.

I have tried fully removing ALL of...

"Uncool" as in: I'm not sitting on a monitor as big as a Star Wars Death Star.

 

This means:

1. Forum font size is rather small for me, so not that well readable (esp. if it bigger chunks of text).

Oh, wait, just use Ctrl + in Firefox to make everything bigger. Yup works, but can make forum pages wider than my display - so not that well readable again, as I have to scroll back and forth.

2. The real cool people have biiiiiig displays. I know for sure because in various th...

I have included Ultra Compare Icon into a Fence called "Program". However, every time I needed it I could never find it. Even I extended its board to maximum. I though I forgot, until today I created another shortcut into it. Same filename reported. I opened the desktop, find the original and did drag again. It reports: "The source and destination filenames are the same". But I just can't see it. 

p.s. that shortcut is not marked hidden. I can see it front desktop folder.

If you have created weather widgets in the past and do not have any desire to update them to work I will do it for you in xwidget format. I cannot and will not do any that are not your own creations or that you do not have written permission to do so. xwidget has very good weather coding using accuweather or cnweather. I have never used cnweather but I do know that accuweather is great. With xWidgets coding you can create weather widgets with extensive weather info.Just about any information you...

Since upgrading to Google Chrome 43, I have had this irritating problem with SOME Flash content making the interior of the Google Chrome window flash black and the Flash content not to work correctly.  Mostly this affected videos that autoplay on Facebook (they would play with no video but the audio would play); but, I have seen other Flash issues too.  I really thought it was a problem with the Flash included in this version of Chrome.  I have looked on the net trying to find oth...

I cannot get IconPackager to change my live folders.  I'm using a package that has live folders built-in.  I've rebuilt the icon cache several times.  When I look at the shell icons entry in the registry, it does point to my live folders icon package images. What am I missing???

After the iPhone hack that caused millions of crashed iPhones over the weekend, there is a nasty new bug going around on the video calling App, Skype. It is an 8-letter message that can break the recipient’s app so badly they need to totally reinstall it to get things working hitch-free again.

You thought unified meant one OS across all devices, right? Wrong, or ‘Unified OSino’.

Window10 will ship in three consumer editions and three Enterprise and education editions. Now that’s ‘unified’.

Translation: The three consumer editions Home, Mobile and Pro are designed for the demands of end-users, professionals and small businesses. Home is the equivalent of the Windows 8 edition, a basic edition of Windows 10 that will most likely ship on the ...

The free version of XSplit Broadcaster or OBS. What have people used and what do they like better. I'm considering making the switch to XSplit Broadcater (will not use Gamecaster ever again *shakes fist at BRB everytime I alt tabbed to type in chat and lack of a mouse cursor onscreen*)

I purchased fences 2.0 but when I try to use it a popup appears. When I try to click "input the product key" nothing happens. When I click "purchase product key" the small window shows a section of the Stardock website.

Well my CoolerMaster Cosmos II, ASUS Maximus VII Hero mobo and CPU cooler have arrived... at long fechen last.

Oops, I did say rant off, didn't I?   Still, I waited long enough... and maybe there's a little residual frustration lingering.

Anyway, I unpacked the Cosmos II.... and what a beastie it is, too!  I thought the Thermaltake Level 10 was a beastie, but this beastie beats that beastie by quite a bit.  It's fechen huge!  Put it this way, and not ...

Hi,

 

For a month now (after a Start 8 or Fences update maybe), my Windows 8.1 Dell XPS 21 takes several minutes before I can interact with the desktop. The cusrosr displays a spinning wheel and clicking anywhere is unresponsive.

The same thing happen (spinning wheel and no interaction with desktop or menu bar for a few minutes) if I plug or unplug my secondary monitor.

 

Uninstalling Fences resolves the issue. Re-installing Fences bring back the problem...

My version of MS Word / (on win 7x64bit PC) does not seem to permit Hebrew.  I need to use some Hebrew in my English docs, or, at least be able to type Hebrew.  Anyone with helpful suggestions for free ware or share ware apps that do this.  i don't need anything fancy... just basic text - vowel points optional.   Thanks you all.

 

edit:  i have win 7 home professional... not sure why I typed win 6... silly me.
