The problem was solved by doing a Windows Reset. Too bad I selected the wrong option and now I have to reinstall all of my programs and restore all of my lost settings. At least my regular files didn't get clobbered.

I just changed DragHeight and DragWidth both from 4 to 100. It does change more than drag and drop moving files and folders. The same setting also affects dragging windows. So, moving windows a little bit is now a bit clunky. I'll see how I like it.

That's an idea! Now, how do I disable drag and drop?

I saw this. It's not like a green light is displayed once the threshold distance is reached. I'm not sure about making this change.

Right. If you don't have the right window open, you won't even see what just was undone.

I just checked using this method. Windows shows an option to "Undo copy." I'm still flying blind. Specifically, Undo what? Windows should show exactly what undo does. Too many times, Windows does not display enough information.

Is there a way to automatically get a completion message after doing every drag and drop? Occasionally I will accidentally drag and drop. Sometimes I drag and drop to the wrong location. After doing every drag and drop, how do I get the system to tell me what it just did? Alternative request...

I’m having problems getting the file save dialog text to be easier to read, i.e. bigger. I've tried System > Display > Custom Scaling. It has no effect on the file save dialog font size. System > Display > Custom scaling > Text size Is already set to a nice size font. Too bad “Changes you make...

That is the KensingtonWorks software that I don't like.

There is no special driver for the Kensington ExpertMouse trackball. I don’t like KensingtonWorks. I ran Tuneup.bat. I think there were no problems:

I rebooted my computer today. . . and now Enhance pointer precision is off. I re-checked it. :(

“Enhance pointer precision” does not remain checked. I uninstalled all mouse drivers. (That's difficult to complete!) The mouse is wired. I just re-checked "Enhance pointer precision" I'll re-post if it gets unchecked.

“Enhance pointer precision” keeps getting reset. I don’t even have to reboot for it to happen. [Mouse Settings > Additional mouse settings > Pointer Options > Enhance pointer precision] I thought it might be associated with Windows Updates, but I think it happens more often than that… even...

This is definitely risky, but I changed the overall display zoom to 125%. Display Settings > Scale (For some reason, the system always shows a gray "225%" regardless of your current setting.) Everything got bigger! Old: New: This is risky because lots of things get moved off screen and it...

I used Winaero to change the system font to Calibri and increase the size of the font in many uses. (I also made many Office fonts available globally.) The file name field is still the same font and the same size. If need be, I will be changing my display settings. Thanks for the tips!
