MS reveals what data it collects in W10

MS has finally revealed what data it collects from you (if you're using W10). I'm sure they collected data from earlier OSs, but they haven't revealed just what in which OS.

There's a good general picture in the linked article, but if you want the nitty gritty, go here: https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/configure/basic-level-windows-diagnostic-events-and-fields

Being Bad

I was thinking about the casual, everyday evil that we face, wondering how it so often prevails.

Not sure how much time I can realistically devote to this just now, but my inclination is to strike when my muse tells me.

As an Aspy, I am very familiar with the typical experience of being blamed for everything.  Even now, nearing 70, I find that on a daily basis I am the object of suspicion at home and where I work.  No doubt part of this is simply that for me and most Aspies, our ...

Icon / Cursor Image Processing

0
0
In my working with cursors and icons recently, I've had the need to be able to process images created outside of cursor and image editors so they can be imported. I wrote IC Warlock in C# (source code and project files included) to help with cropping, resizing, and aligning images to common icon and cursor dimensions. It includes the ability to automatically outline shapes, and convert background color of an image to transparent (denoted by pixel color at 0,0), etc. Drag-and-drop support, dr...

Disable create new fences

Need the ability to disable creating fences from both right and left, left mouse button, right mouse button.. just provide an option to disable fence creation. 

Fences, wants to create new Fences even when I'm done creating the Fences I wanted. Why should I, and other customers, be constantly spammed with a Fences dialog "Create Fence here," or "Create Folder Portal here" wanting to create a new Fence and the transparent selection window? 

Additionally, I work with multiple d...

Recently went back to VLC player but it leaves much to be desired. The audio output is crappy and Xion's was much better. However, Xion is no longer an option, it breaks easily. Hell...SMX is more robust, it didn't even notice the latest updates to Win 10. It just kept clicking away. I downloaded both Foobar 2000 and Media Monkey. I have not yet installed either one. In your opinions which of the two are best.

Here's what happened when installing Creators Update

Hello all,

After installing CU, everything seemed to be going fine until I got to the point of signing in. The screen then went black with nothing else but a mouse cursor moving around. I noticed the sound of Windows disconnecting something and then reconnecting, then disconnecting again. Not trying to be mean here but figured it might have something to do with Windowblinds, so I backed out to the logon screen and did a shift/restart to get to the troubleshooting menu and then went into safe ...

Fences - STOP icons from auto-arranging

0
0
I have the Sort Fence option set to none and yet every time I try to reposition an icon within a fence they don't stick where I want them. If I have a dozen icons within a fence and I want one or two icons to remain next to each other, it seems like every time I move one icon to where I want it to go, the others all change their order. They seem to want to be in a topdown order any time the fence has multiple columns. So, if I want to take an icon and place it next to another one, everything bel...

Compatibility issue with an app?

0

If you have compatibility issues with WindowBlinds and an application or game, please do let us know in this thread so we can investigate it and hopefully resolve the problem.

Please make sure you are running the latest version of WindowBlinds first and that the problem exists with a theme included with WindowBlinds vs a downloaded one. 

Please provide as much detail as you can, screenshots of the problem, information on the application itself, how to reproduce the problem and if...

Almost three years have gone by since I did an SMX. Now that its up and running again I need to refresh my memory. Time formats...aside from the dd/mm/ss, what I'm looking for are the 'codes' or whatever you call them, to call the hour, minutes and seconds up. They use these signs...%# P or p...something like that. Anyone know what they are?   

Mr. Warmth, Don Rickles, Gone at 90...

Don Rickles is no more...

He was pretty much an unknown until one night in 1957, when Frank Sinatra walked into a club during his act.

“Make yourself at home Frank. Hit somebody.” said Rickles. Sinatra roared — with laughter.

In 1985, when Sinatra was asked to perform at Ronald Reagan’s second Inaugural Ball, he insisted that Rickles accompany him for a comedy routine. Rickles, naturally, did not spare the president (“Am I going too fast for you, ...

Idea for Fences

0
0
IMHO, one of the best (and underrated) "clean desktop" apps was an object dock with multiple tabs. So instead of having multiple fences for each group of related apps, you had a single dock on the desktop and you could click through tabs to get to the grouping you wanted.

If there was some way to integrate that into a Fences option, I think that would be terrific.

Now, some people would tell me to just use the Object dock program. But isn't that no longer supported? I think the latest ...

[Bug] Windows 7 – some of my shortcuts don't have an icon

0
0
Hello.

Purchased Fences resently and found some unusual bug with shortcuts' icons: several shortcuts to some particular .exe files fail to load their icons. It appears that only certain links have difficulties to extract an icon from exe.

1) Tried to detach and reattach an icon – fixed in several places but major number of icons remained with the same blank icon.

2) Cleaning an icon cache doesn't help either.

3) Have no such bug with Fences uninstalled.

Any help?

Hi
I'm having problems with Avast internet security after the 10.6 update.
I can't interact with the program at all, system lags and unresponsive.

Reinstalled windows just now to figure it was conflicting with Windows blinds.
As soon as I choose the default skin, the program pops up and windows back to normal.

Can't use WB now

 

 

Hi

I had problems with Avast too after update to 10.6

perhaps i have a way to fix that ...
