    Remove Windows Explorer user folders' shortcuts

    Posted: 31 Aug 2021 06:49 PM PDT

    Thought I'd share this. I found it a few days ago and also added the ability to remove the 3D Objects folder.

    With people like me who have multiple hard drives and don't store anything other than the OS and programs in Drive C:/, those shortcuts are more or less useless.

    There are two scripts. One to remove the icons, and one to restore them. Open notepad, paste the text, save as .reg files - "remove-shortcuts.reg" and "restore-shortcuts.reg" (or whatever you want to call them) and run them.

    Additionally, you can only do it for select items if you remove their code chunks.

    Remove:

    Are you upgrading to windows 11 as soon as possible or are you going to wait a bit?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2021 06:00 PM PDT

    Personally I never cared for windows 10. It's okay not as good as 7 imo, but it is okay. I am excited for windows 11 as I want it to be the best it can be. I'll probably wait about six months as I want to see how stable it is unless I hear it is pretty much perfect. When I upgraded from windows 7 to 10 on my old computer that was a mess and decided that I would just switch over to windows 10 when I built my new PC as it was so much more stable then.

    One thing I am going to miss is windows image backup. I know it's old but I do use it every so often if something goes wrong. I'll just switch to acronis.

    What are you guys doing?

    Helping a friend out with a computer. He's got s mode active on his windows 10 computer and when you go to the switch out and press the download link it says working on it and apparently can say that for up to 1 hour. I've reset the app and reset the computer but nothing. Anyone got any tips?

    I saw people posting their old desktops and remembered that I too have a picture of my old desktop. It's not as old - 2016...but still. What a difference.

    Windows on a Galaxy Tab S6 Lite?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2021 11:02 AM PDT

    Quick question - Is it possible to install Windows on a Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite? I currently have LineageOS on mine and was wondering if it's possible to just install Windows on it like on any other PC now that there is an ARM version of Windows, or is it not possible due to the way ARM systems work? I have never really understood how installing an OS differs from x86 to ARM.

    Best Free/Cheap Software for Image Scanning with OCR with PDF Export

    Posted: 31 Aug 2021 02:30 PM PDT

    Hi everyone,

    I recently got a gig digitizing hundreds of pages of files and I'm working from my room and I have no idea what software to use. All I need to do is scan the files and export them to PDF, preferably with OCR character recognition so it is searchable within Acrobat Reader. I'm trying to find free software that will do such a thing, but I'm having bad luck. There just seems to be a deluge of weird sponsored ad sites that are confusing as hell to navigate. I'm not too knowledgeable in this space and I'm a broke college student. I would preferably not try to get Adobe Acrobat DC, not only cause its expensive, but because I have a general disdain for using Adobe products in general. Any help would be appreciated. Preferably, the software should run on Windows 10, but if you guys have any suggestions for cheap software that may be used or older, I will be able to run programs designed for Windows XP/Vista/7 as well. Thanks!

    Attribute Changer

    My dissertation tutor has been quite strict about my milestone dates. I need to change the 'last modified' property of one of my documents, and I'm planning to use attribute changer. She will definitely check the dates and I wanna make sure there is no way she can see its been modified. Any help?

    Why I Have To Ditch Mac and Stay With Windows

    Posted: 31 Aug 2021 08:00 AM PDT

    Last year (2020) I bought two computers:

    • a 2020 Intel MacBook Air (i5, 8gb RAM, 256 gb storage) and
    • a 2020 Alienware Aurora R11 desktop gaming PC (6-core i5, 8gb RAM, 1 tb SSD storage, liquid cooling)

    I have an iPhone because my wife and kids have iPhones. We have Apple TV, 1 HomePod, AirPods, and an old iPad Mini.

    I also have 2 Echo Dots and an Xbox One.

    So here I am with my 2 computers. I'm a freelance writer, graphic designer, and video content creator. So I thought Mac would be great for the creator in me.

    WRONG!

    My Mac is slow as molasses. Just today the system hung up trying to compress 400 mb into a zip file. I had to force restart the entire system. I've got Clean My Mac keeping it as streamlined as possible yet it still isn't enough.

    Yesterday I filmed a video on my iPhone. I couldn't get the footage off my iPhone to my video editors (I tried a few). I ended up opening each video in QuickTime, exporting them, and then converting them to MP4 and then adding them to video editor. Nothing else would work.

    I have iCloud photos synced to OneDrive on my PC and there I simply dragged each file over to my video editor and BAM! Done.

    My PC will zip large files in the blink of an eye.

    I have to force restart my Mac at least once a week. I haven't had a single issue with my PC.

    I really wanted to love Mac. I was almost all in on the Apple ecosystem and was going to sell my PC at one point. I like streamlining and simplifying my life. I'm a minimalist at heart. I only use things that bring value to me.

    Mac complicates my life. It frustrates me. Surprisingly it's boring old Windows that is easy, reliable, and simple.

    It's sad. Now I need to ditch Apple and get an Android. Oh well.

    Was I allowed to transfer my Windows 10 license to my new computer?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2021 07:12 AM PDT

    I was trying to transfer my license for Windows 10 (OEM license tied to my Microsoft account) to my new PC.

    I uninstalled the activation key on the old PC with some command I found online, which worked. However, Windows wouldn't activate on the new PC.

    I tried the activation troubleshooter and said I made a hardware change, and my new PC wasn't on the list of devices it told me to pick. So I couldn't activate Windows at all on the new PC.

    I then called support and the agent had me read him my installation ID, and he activated it on the new PC. He said Windows should be deactivated on the old PC and activated on the new PC.

    I read online that you aren't allowed to transfer OEM licenses to new computers. But the support agent did it and it worked.

    Was I allowed to do this transfer?
