I first tried uninstalling the program, but the phantom PowerDirector still remained in the list. I went to regedit, deleted the PowerDirector entry, but it still showed in the menu. I then used Choose from to manually select the proper PowerDirector .exe and now all is back to normal.

Somehow, it was pointing towards a phantom PowerDirector, by using the Choose from, it redirected it to the correct .exe file.

Went to open a movie in Cyberlink PowerDirector 365 using Open With and got an error msg. Closed explorer, and updated PowerDirector. Now, it shows a generic exe icon and won't open at all. Ran sfc /scannnow and did a restart, don't know what else to do. Program works fine if you open it first...

Almost got their 24" Gaming monitor, but wanted 1440p and HDMI 2.1.

Finally pulled the trigger on

I usually shoot (GoPro, phone) in 1080p, and all my stock images and footage are 1080p (heck, some are old enough they're 768p). Also, I sit in the 15-18 inch range from the monitor, one of the reasons I'm leaning towards 24". Add in the price, and the desktop space, file size of 2k video, and...

I should mention, I'm satisfied with my current Dell. Not really looking to upgrade so much as simply replacing a monitor that's showing signs of age. (I used to live on a boat so components were subjected to high heat, high humidity) So my primary choice is about size, both dimensional and...

I currently use a Dell P2214H 1080p 60Hz. Trying to decide between a 24" 1080p or a 27" 1440p. Primary usage is video editing, youtube, and Sims 4. Read a lot of stuff on the web, but thought I'd ask based on my situation rather than a generic one. Top end of my budget would be $350 (if anyone...

Hadn't thought of that. Thanks, I'll give it a try.

I've done all the suggested stuff I can find, but the switch accounts button in YouTube on Firefox (up to date, no ext./addons) just won't seem to work without several attempts. Happens with either of my pc's and doesn't happen with Chrome or Edge (neither of which I like to use), so it...

My current NAS is a 2 bay WD MyCloud EX2 Ultra that spent it's first 4 years in a high humidity, high summer temps environment (on a boat) and WD is no longer active in NAS enclosures and ended support, so 2 bays for use now (backups), and 2 for when my WD dies (everything else important enough...

Think I've decided on the Asustor Drivestor Pro 4 bay. Doesn't have the greatest specs, but it seems more than sufficient for simple storage that isn't frequently accessed.

Finally, tracking says "Delayed in transit", then an hour later, says it again. Customer Service side is still in shambles, but at least there's no problem buying stuff ;-)

Evidently, their tracking is still messed up. My package left on it's 120 mile journey to the local distribution hub 18 hours ago and has yet to arrive, while it's still marked as arriving today (going on 7pm local time).

What I want to know is how does MS know when most people have their machines set up the way they want, so MS can screw it all up with more updates or upgrades? The worst thing about digital is there's not much money in making it work right, all the money is in new content.
