Nov 5, 2015I was a Windows 7 user and recently updated to 10. And to be honest, I liked it more than Windows 7.Windows 7 used to have this menu option for me,I was able to see the full capacity of my network location's root hard disk. However, in Windows 10, it has such an appearance. And I couldn't find a way to access my Network Path's Space Attributes. How I can make them visible again?

View 1 RepliesCustomization :: Use Different Taskbar Locations On Different Displays
Aug 7, 2015When I first upgraded, the taskbar on my first display was located on the left side of the display and the taskbar on my second display was located on the bottom. I liked this. But I wanted to see how I'd like having both on left hand side. I went into taskbar properties. `Taskbar location on screen` was set to `custom` and I changed it to `left`.
I decided I didn't like this and wanted to change it back. But `custom` no longer appeared in this drop down and I couldn't find any other option to change them separately. Is there any way to change it back? Perhaps a specific registry key?
Customization :: Hide Windows Remove USB Safely Tray Icon?
Oct 8, 2015Any way to hide it for good? Not disabling it, because that could cause some trouble, just that doesn't show in the tray? A .reg file would be awesome.
I want this for 2 reasons: First, I don't use it, I use USB Disk Ejector; and second because it's wasting space. And don't worry, everything in there has a purpose, as myself installed everyone of them.
Customization :: Disable Auto Arrange In Windows Explorer
Nov 29, 2015I have disliked this "feature" since windows 7 and I see they still have not restored the ability to manually sort without having to give every file a "tag". Note: I do not want to use windows live essentials as I hate photo gallery, so this is not an option. I used to be able to arrange my photos by dragging and dropping them next to another similar photo and it would snap to grid where I dropped it. This eliminate duplicate pictures. I found this ink for windows 7:
Windows Explorer Auto Arrange - Disable. However it says very clearly at the beginning not to use it for any other OS versions. Does this works for windows 10 as well or if there is a way to do it in windows 10? I would prefer a 3rd party program as oppose to editing my registry if it can work (all the things that need "fixing" for customization in windows 10 seem to always suggest a reg fix, but I am afraid to edit my registry too much).

View 2 RepliesSecurity :: Windows Defender Won't List Excluded Files And File Locations
Oct 11, 2015I have selected certain file types / folders and locations in Windows Defender on Windows 10 that were added to the exclusions lists...
Previously I could go to Windows Defender and see what files, folders or extensions I had excluded but now they have disappeared....
All I see is the add buttons which work as intended when I want to add a folder etc etc.... But then they are not listed anywhere so that I can remember what I have excluded or not....
How to get that visible again, is there a setting in the registry that needs to be fixed?
This is what I should see where, below the red arrows I should see the excluded files/folders including their path etc etc [see image below]
but I see nothing..
Yet if i go to the registry as indicated below...
File and file location exclusions are stored in the registry key below.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows DefenderExclusionsPaths
File type exclusions are stored in the registry key below.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows DefenderExclusionsExtensions
Processes exclusions are stored in the registry key below.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows DefenderExclusionsProcesses
they are all listed there....?
I have to say that windows defender is excluding folders/files and etc etc, that I have selected during its scans, but I cant see the excluded items in the Windows Defender as per image of my Exclusions section below...

Networking :: Cannot Remove Wireless Network From List
Jan 15, 2016I have two wireless networks at home, and one is faster than the other. This is because the slower one is wired to my desktop, and the modem and router are the same box. So I would like to remove the slower from machines wireless connected. I searched the forum, and got a solution, the command below, but the answer, as can be read, is that the filter does not exist in the system. I am attaching a screen that shows GVT-15DF at the list of connections.
C:Userslarau>netsh wlan delete filter permission=allow ssid="GVT-15DF" networktype=infrastructure O filtro nao existe no sistema.

View 2 RepliesDoes Upgrade Remove Internet Explorer 11?
Sep 16, 2015I know a clean install of Windows 10 gives you the Edge browser, but what happens to IE 11 if you upgrade from Windows 7 or 8.1 to Windows 10? Does the upgrade keep your previous version of Internet Explorer and give you the Edge browser or is the previous browser removed?
I have an app that requires ActiveX and on a fresh install of Windows 10 I was able to download IE 11 and access both browsers. It would be nice if the Internet Explorer instance is left installed on an upgrade.

Networking :: NAS Not Appearing Under Network In File Explorer?
Jan 31, 2016I have been having issues with my WD MyCloud NAS not showing up under Network on the left navigation pane of File Explorer. I am able to access the NAS by entering the host name (WDMYCLOUD) in the address bar in File Explorer. I was able to find a solution that fixes this and makes my NAS appear in Network as expected. The solution involved running Command Prompt as Admin, executing some commands, then restarting the computer.
What I would like to do is automate this process by creating a batch file that will:

Dec 1, 2015I have a NAS (WD MyBookLive) which cannot be accessed in Windows Explorer on my brand new Surface by IP address (or name- though that doesn't work on any of my devices for some reason). I can access the config page in my browser by IP, and two other Win10 devices on my network can access the NAS by IP in Explorer fine, and I can access other devices on my network by IP fine on the Surface but for whatever reason only this computer can't access that NAS in Win Explorer.
I just got the Surface yesterday and was able to access the NAS fine, the only thing that's changed is I renamed the device and restarted and since then haven't been able to connect. I've restarted both the PC again and the NAS but no change.
Customization :: How To Remove Quick Access
Aug 18, 2015How can I remove "quick access", or at least change the option to point to a file in the folder where I save it.

Customization :: How To Remove All Bundled Apps
Aug 3, 2015[URL].... This can be done using the command line tool, PowerShell. To open PowerShell, open the Start menu (press Win key on the keyboard) and type Powershell. When it comes up in the search results, right click on it and choose "Run as administrator". Or you can also press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open it as administrator. Opening PowerShell as administrator is important, otherwise, the commands you run will fail.
Type the following command to remove all Modern apps from the system account:
Code:
Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online
This means that all newly created user accounts will come without built-in Modern apps. This also means that new user accounts will be created faster.
Finally, here's a command that will remove Metro apps for all user accounts:
Code:
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage
This works, I used the last one and every app except Contact Support, Cortana, Edge,Settings and Windows Feedback were removed.
Make a Restore Point and/or Backup your registry before doing this. Caution: Use at your own risk.
