  2. Taskbar takes a while to load in when starting up the computer.

    Your PC specs have nothing to do with this, you have an SSD and good specifications otherwise. It is something to do with software installed on the computer. Have you recently installed anything? Do you recall updating the PC? Do you have any third-party antivirus? What programs autostart?
  3. Daily Refresh Setting of my Bing Wallpaper keeps getting unticked

    I did some research into this and it is a known issue with the software. A way you could fix it is to make a powershell script with the refresh command in it. Set-Itemproperty -path 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\BingWallpaperApp' -Name 'OverrideWallpaper' -value 1 The way you can do this is to...
  4. how do I open command prompt from file manager?

    That is this bit: Just click and type cmd and it will open command prompt into the folder you are currently in
  5. Printers

    Yes, my canon ink cartridges have chips on them which detect whether they are real. These sub £50 printers often cost double that a year to buy the official ink if you do a reasonable amount of printing.
  6. Printers

    Wow, wireless was still fairly sophisticated for printers in 2012 so I am surprised to hear yours has it. Absolutely, I always think if it is such a good product - why did they get rid of it..
  7. Printers

    I had a look & you can get similar printers to yours refurbished around £100/US$125/AU$190 or the newer models for around £200/US$250/AU$390. If they last as long as your one I think this is a good deal.
  8. Printers

    Wasn't sure whether to put this here or in the Devices and Drivers section, but it isn't a query more just a discussion so I decided here is probably best..: Printers are either cheap and last a couple of years, or expensive and commercial. Anyone got any household budget (sub £250/US$300ish)...

    VLC media player, VS Code, MAMP/XAMPP, Ms office/libre office, firefox and Google Earth Pro.
  10. Dark mode run box like StartAllBack does?

    It seems that some people got the dark mode run box with 21h2... I think that the person who saw this dark mode must have been using Startallback. But I'm in dark mode and still have a light run box. Run is a legacy program, so like control panel, the dark mode is non-existent or patchy...
  11. Logitech G810 Orion Spectrum UK layout?

    Oh yes, didn't read the title and just quickly looked at the image.. sorry. I found this on ebay: Logitech G810 Orion Spectrum Gaming Keyboard Faulty #5 | eBay I am not saying to purchase this, but read the description: Whilst more research should be done, perhaps the cable is loose inside...
  12. Logitech G810 Orion Spectrum UK layout?

    When you say your orignal G810 failed, in what way was this? Completely just "stopped working", or some keys dying out? It is possible, since it is a mechanical keyboard, it could be hot swappable. This meaning you can buy some new switches (if you like the old feeling and sound of typing then...

    I found this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/983549/disabling-right-click-on-desktop Was going to rewrite it but it is a long answer, and there is only one so should be easy enough to follow :)
  14. What phones does everyone use?

    The Samsung A series phones seem to be most popular on this forum - and I believe for 2023 atleast after all the flagship iphones, you will find that the samsung A phones were the most popular. And it is for good reason too. They are fast, 5G, easy to purchase, good value for money and now...
