No such options for me: S

Started seeing this creeping into my notebooks recently: It appears if I right click on any free standing page that is part of a standard notebook. I am running Office 2024 Home and Business - so no true "MS365" connection here and no Copilot installed on the machine whatsoever. Really...

Been using this Edge extension for years now - but lately (within the last 6-9 months) it has become a tad unruly. A month or two ago - I would fire it up and it would display as this nasty flashing box that you could not type in to. Now - since March 12 (exactly) this thing is completely dead...

Understood. Clearly it has been this way for a while - but not here. I must have turned something back "on" inadvertently. Because this while unblock thing is all new - like today. S

Well - I have had a folder full of reg files in the same folder for like 3 years and not once have I ever been told to unblock anything. I could right click->Edit to my hearts content and every file (yours or anyone else's) would just open in Notepad - like normal. And suddenly today (of all...

Totally understand. But what I am saying is I have downloaded tons of your files - for years. And not once did I ever need to Unblock anything. Again - this is the first time I even have seen this checkbox - let alone used it. S

Brink I am sure they are all just fine and always have been. But check this out: Here is one of your files previewed - in my preferred File Manager (XYPlorer): All good. And then here is the same file previewed via File Explorer: This is new to me. Just spotted this in the last few...

Here is the file. This will NOT open for me - using right click->EDIT (handing off to Notepad) But if I open Notepad (old school non-Ai version) standalone and choose File-Open - this file does open It will also not open via Explorer if I right click and choose Open With->Visual Studio Code...

Noted - cannot remember where I got the file - but upon examination - it was not a properly formatted "registry" file. Clearly edited by someone as I am well aware that Brinks stuff is always top shelf. No slight to him in the least. Tested 5 more "properly" formatted files and they all open...

And...solved the REG file one as well. Again - it was a specific file. One of Brinks oldies actually. As a test - I created a sample standard registry file with the usual trimmings. Right click - choose Edit and it opens in Notepad Right click on one of Brinks oldies - nothing. Turns out it...

Update. Tried all the suggestions - thank you all. 1. After a restart (sfc/dism run) - went into File Explorer - and noticed some very odd behavior. Looks like I am back with some ISOs: But this one - dead... This one loads perfectly into NT Lite - but has something odd when doing a...

WinRAR is all good - I removed any reference to ISO in there. No change. S

Kinda thought I had maybe gotten close to "seeing it all" with Windows - but here is another one. Yesterday - I needed to "mount" a Win 11 iso for an upcoming NT Lite session next week. I right click on the ISO file and to my surprise - I notice that the "mount" option is nowhere to be seen...

You clearly haven’t seen what is happening to Chrome as far as AI slop is concerned. Was actually watching YT video on just how bad AI is getting in there before I came here to ask this question. From a resource viewpoint,RAM viewpoint and especially a privacy standpoint - I dumped it 4 years...

None of this helps to turn this: Off. I have every setting I can find - set to disabled. And this thing is still visible. S
