Thanks for the info. Nice find. :thumb:
OK, I've unpinned all of MS metro apps and created my own blocks of tiles, plus found out that Parental Controls doesn't need Family Safety from...
Yep, if I could move my steam games over, then I just might consider it too.
I expect that would be interesting. :o
Just read in another forum that the "talk" at MS suggests they will likely bring back the start menu including full support for it. So I'm going...
OK, I've been working with it since this afternoon, and Win 8 CP may be wearing me down. Went back to Win 7 for an hour and it was nice. :-[
I certainly appreciate where you're coming from. I would rather have Win 7's layout but so far it's not something to prevent me from pursuing Win 8.
I'm going to try 32 bit now. Dual booting with it. Sorry you lost some stuff. :'(
Windows Live Family Safety is broken for me. That may make for a short experiment if I can't figure it out.
Yep, that was mentioned on another forum and made it much easier for me to adjust. Sorry for not mentioning it.
I've installed Win 8 CP and I have to say I'm able to move around in it much better for some reason. I thought here we go again, but after...
You are correct and it happened to me in 2010. We figured out it was probably a waiter at Ihop. Our Bank caught it before they spent 350.00...
No. Why? Much more willing to be behind a standard account in Windows 7 with UAC on full. Plus, I'm fairly careful.
Yep, that's my approach. In fact, I usually install a clean image every six months on my personal computer just to be safe.
Back to Win 7 SP1 64 bit from Win Dev Prev. (needed additional printer and converter program not working in Dev Prev.) 1. Standard Accounts...
I've tried the refresh and it worked nicely. It's one of the reasons I would buy Win 8. This would especially be great for my parents when...
I've used PerfectDisk from version 7 to 12 and several others only to go back to Windows 7's and now Windows Dev. Preview's defrag program. Set...
Good to know. Thanks. :thumb:
Windows 8 Dev. Preview (64 bit) 1. Standard accounts 2. Windows Firewall 3. Firefox 8 beta 2 w/adblock plus 4. UAC on high 5. Windows...
Good questions. When I install Win 7 I usually make the desktop icons smaller, so after installing Metro Win 8 I noticed these huge tiles...
Tried it for 24 hrs. before I almost uninstalled it. Then I read how we could change it to get back the start menu (Win 7). It's still installed.
Windows 8 Dev. Preview 64 bit. According to MS mitigations have been enhanced, kernel safety improved, better WD, secure boot, etc. 1....
You're welcome. I think these W8 security improvements (enhanced mitigation, Smart screen system wide, Windows Defender, new kernel protection)...
Me too. I'm particularly interested in MS thoughts on their security design for Windows 8 (mitigation enhanced). I'm running it for everyday use...
I'm just glad I found out how to bring back Windows 7 classic start menu with the reg edit because I started the morning thinking about returning...
