  1. Unhandled exception in SVCHost

    Yes I run the free version of MWB. | Oh! That's interesting a check for updates did find one - maybe 🤞that will fix the issue... Thanks David

  2. Unhandled exception in SVCHost

    If I knew I'd tell you I get a JIT debugger popup for this a few times a day often while I'm not doing anything...

  4. Limit number of active cores at run-time

    Thank you for the suggestion. On consideration, I think that for the use case I have in mind the original approach of MSCONFIG and reboot seems to win. Cheers David

  5. Limit number of active cores at run-time

    I know that I can use MSCONFIG to limit the maximum number of cores that will be used. This takes effect at boot time. Is there any way to adjust the number of cores when the system is in use? If I want to benchmark the performance of some multi-threaded software with differing core counts...

  6. SMB copy still not working well

    I'm copying some 60GB from a W10 machine to this W11 machine. Copy speed drops down to 2-3MB/s and then inexplicably increases after a time to about 100MB/s (or better) and then drops away to next to nothing again. I thought this silliness had been fixed - what should have copied in about 10...

  7. INTEL - System - 10.1.7.4

    Well this is confusing - windows update says I need to install: INTEL - System - 10.1.7.4 and INTEL - System - 10.1.7.4 Really unhelpful - it needs to distinguish what device the driver update is for etc.. David

  8. Unknown publisher prompt

    No that's not the problem - he has run the downloaded installer with no problems after unlocking it. He gets this when he runs the installed application.

  9. Unknown publisher prompt

    A user has installed my application. Every time he starts it he gets an "Unknown publisher prompt". How do I stop this. Thanks, David

  10. Setting default input method

    Settings, Time & Language, Typing, Advanced keyboard settings, Override for default input method was the one that allowed me to force UK Extended Keyboard...

  11. Setting default input method

    English is already above Japanese.

  12. Setting default input method

    I have installed Japanese language support on my system as well as UK English (because I write software that need translation). For UK English I had set the keyboard to the the UK Extended keyboard. Now that Japanese has been installed and even though my current language is set to UK English...

  13. What to use instead of Macrium Reflect

    I loved it but I'm twitching at the ongoing cost of leasing a minimum of 3 licenses (or do I need extra licenses for virtual machines)? So what are the viable alternatives? I don't count Acronis Backup as viable as it is well expensive and never worked properly for me anyway, never mind the...

  14. Windows update down levels Intel Driver

    My Intel P630 video driver has level 30.0.101.1338 which was installed by "Dell Command Update". When I ran Windows Update a short while ago it tried to down-level the driver to (I think) 30.0.101.1225. Naughty Windows Update. How to prevent this? Thanks David

  15. Windows 11 clipboard viewer doesn't show large images

    OK that's disappointing - ho-hum! Thanks for clarification on 4MB limit. David
