Hi,
Steps recorder has always been available.

@Edwin is not referring to Steps Recorder - he is talking about a little known tool in Powerpoint to actually record video.

It is possible to record your screen and create a video tutorial right from within PowerPoint! I did not know that!

This has actually been around for years but surprisingly few people know about it - cool eh!

Friggin rights it's cool!!!

I hadn't used PP all that aggressively until I started all this livestream stuff.
I've always been impressed with how powerful the Office Suite is. Hope they don't feck that up too!!!

@Edwin didn't you mention you're on Insider's builds? I just checked mine and there's no updates (I'm NOT on Insider's though)

On the official Microsoft 365 Family subscription, it says Family in the name of the subscription but the description only mentions '... share with others'.

Is there anyone here who has shared their subscription with non-family others? Any security/privacy concerns? Also any thoughts about when the time comes for you to terminate the subscription, but the people you once invited to share, may not agree?

Microsoft calls it Family because that makes some people think it's only household members. If I think it's only for household/family members, I won't be inclined to share with my neighbor/friend. Thus, if the neighbor/friend wants it, they'll have to subscribe on their own.

When I cancel my subscription, everyone I've shared with will lose theirs too. They have no choice.

Oh, that's long sorted. I have shared my MS 365 subscription with someone not in my household, in addition to sharing it with someone in my household (the latter since many, many years)

I would not cancel my MS 365 subscription lightly, but if I do, the others (and I) would not lose their/our files, and they/we can keep working on their/our files using the free web-based Office apps (or they can get their own MS 365 subscriptions)

Thanks, @KYHI! I posted the link on Skype for my students.

SharewareOnSale is a great site; I hadn't thought about it for awhile, since I really don't need anything else on my computers.

I'm exactly the same. I use my OneDrive storage heavily these days, so it's highly unlikely that I am going to cancel my Office 365 subscription. If I were go cancel, I would let the others know. As stated above, they can keep all of their files.

Hi,
Used showkeys on the win-10 pro keys I with the office bundle
They are really both win-8.1 rtm pro retail keys

To use it I had to use the generic 10 pro key and use change key showkeys shows the generic win-10 key still being used not the new key that was supposed to be win-10 pro

Support was useless so them selling win-10 keys is misleading they are not.

Hi (in your inimitable way...)

Showkeys? That's blasphemous to ShowKeyPlus... LOL

Yeah the old versions' keys get tossed with digital.

Thanx for the feedback :wink:

Hi,
That's good to know ms did say again this version is activated after using it

It's just deceptive selling they could just say it's win-8.1 pro key good for win-10 pro activation but nope they still don't acknowledge the real os key it's really for.

Good to know I can use it for windows 8.1 pro though :think:
