Apps :: How To Force Export To Certain Version Of Excel
Jan 11, 2016I have both Excel 2000 and Excel 2013 on my Windows 10 machine for reasons that don't need enumeration here. I am working with a program now that will export/import to Excel, but it looks like it might work only with Excel 2013.
However, when I do the export from the program it always exports to 2000. There is not an options or preferences within the program to choose which version of Excel to direct the export.
Is there some way in Windows 10 short of uninstalling Excel 2000 to make 2013 the default choice?

View 2 RepliesApps :: Recent Folders In Explorer Jump List Are Not Updating
Aug 9, 2015I am using Win 10 x64 Pro, clean installation.
1. Recent folders in explorer jump list are not updating. They seem to be random folders from my second HDD and clicking on them says the folder has been moved (which is not true) and it offers to delete the shortcut. Deleting also does nothing, item still remains. Disabling recent folder in settings > personalization > start also has no effect
2. If I tick 'show recently used files in quick access' in folder options it also has no effect. When I open folder options after this it is unticked again.
3. I can't pin anything to quick access, I get 'parameter is incorrect' error.

View 9 RepliesHow To Check And Force A Upgrade
Jul 28, 2015To check whether your download is coming, look for a folder called:
$WINDOWS.~BT
In the root of your C:
If its not there, check there are folders dated with todays date, here:
C:WindowsSoftwareDistributionDownload
Files start here, before being unpacked into the location above.
If those folders don't exist, type this at the command line:
wuauclt.exe /updatenow
(This worked for me, and my download has started)
If you have to hit Windows Update with a hammer, try this:
1.Uninstalled the KB2976978
(In an elevated cmd prompt)
1.net stop wuauserv
2.rd /s /q C:WindowsSoftwareDistribution

How To Force 99% Usage Max On A Computer
Dec 16, 2015So I really feel like using my bluetooth keyboard now, but whenever my computer reaches 100% cpu usage, it just disconnects and reconnects and make it laggy. I'm on the hp stream 11 by the way, so yeah... intel celeron n2840 processor. Like that it will make the bluetooth experience better. Or maybe it won't because I didn't ''allocate'' the bluetooth service to the 1% or whatever.
View 1 RepliesApps :: Photos App Doesn't See Images Located In Google Drive Folders
Feb 10, 2016I backup photos from my phone to Google Photos which then automatically syncs them to my hard drive to a folder in Google Drive. The folder containing these images in Google Drive has been included in the Pictures library, but the Photos app doesn't see them and says "No readable photos, videos or folders found." I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Photos app. The pictures show up fine in Windows Photo Gallery. Does the Photos app has always ignored images in Google Drive or is this a recent development?
View 5 RepliesCan't Startup After Freeze And Force Shut Down
Dec 4, 2015Windows 10 froze suddenly when I went through the search results tabs of a search done on torrent-finder.info. I was using Firefox (latest version). My fear is that I may have come across a dodgy website which caused the freeze. My Keepass Passwords Database was open at the time so I was even more apprehensive. This type of freeze had never happened before. The CPU light on my laptop turned on full-time and the interface became generally unresponsive. I could use the mouse but could not access task manager. So I saw no other option than to force shut down by holding down the power button.
When attempting to boot up again the CPU light was on full-time again at the beginning. Then, after a little longer than usual CPU goes dead (no light) and I am left with the black screen with the blue windows logo and the spinning circle. At this step the boot process gets stuck.
How To Force Program To Start In IE Rather Than Edge
Aug 17, 2015I have a program that came with an IP cam I use for remote viewing that will display the video in IE but not in Edge. The program correctly displays the internal parameter screens from the camera ie-resolution settings, alarm settings et-al. just not the video.
When I use Edge to view the camera directly by typing in the IP address I get the normal sign in screen from the camera and everything I would normally expect but no video image. Just a blank black screen within the camera software border. When I use IE the video is fine.
I have viewed the " How to Change Default Programs" article and it only shows how to force an IE start for "groups" of programs not a specific program.
Is there a way to force a SPECIFIC program to use IE in Windows 10 rather than Edge?
Force To Remember Where To Open Windows?
Dec 12, 2015I upgraded to Win 10 few weeks ago and I have a small issue with it.I can't make Win 10 open windows where i want them to open.
Previously with Win 7 I had the Explorer open on the right side of the screen, taking about half of the screen. My browser would open on the left side taking up the rest of the screen. It was very easy to set up. I just resized it to what I wanted, placed it where I wanted and closed it down. After reopening it would open in the same place, same size.
I tried the same with Win 10 and it doesn't work... Every time I reboot and open my browser and Explorer I have to readjust them. I know that's a very minor thing, but it bothers me every time I turn my PC on. how I can force Win 10 to remember where to open windows?

PC Force Reboot When Playing Game
Oct 4, 2015My PC sometimes restarts when I am playing game. This occurrence is sporadic and is spread between long periods of time. Once it starts to happen, every time I try to play a game after the restart it reboots almost instantly & then reboots before anything else would show up on the screen or just switch off when I press the power button.
After I leave the PC & unplug everything it works again until the next time after I played a few games. Almost all of the time it would reboot the PC but rarely it would crashed to desktop. Other times Geforce experience has stopped working and would crash. Once when my pc force restarted the screen showed a few vertical red, white and blue pixelated lines across the screen.
The most recent problems was when I was not playing any games at all and the pc just shutdown. To try and resolve my problem I have swapped my RAM with new RAM. Removed one of the monitors, changed the graphics card checked to see if my motherbored bios was up to date.
When trying all of the above my PC still force reboots when playing games at times. I have also used my onboard video card for a day and no force reboot has occurred. But this was for one day and I have gone for a day with my GTX 980 or asus 560ti without having a my pc rebooted when playing games.
