I just disabled grouping of taskbar icons and then grouped them back. Keep in mind this doesn't happen that often, maybe a few times/week. Most of the time it works fine

I haven't reinstalled Explorer Patcher. IN the middle of the upgrade to 24H2, I saw that it wanted me to uninstall Explorer Patcher, so I did and the install proceeded. After the installation, I was surprised that I still had most of my Quick Launch items on the left like I had them, just like...

I'm finishing up the installation of 24H2 and it got to a window mentioning Explorer Patcher not working right with this version, so I had to uninstall it. I finished the 24H2 update. Can I reinstall Explorer Patcher? It's in my Exclusions. I like the Win 10 type quick launch area on the far...

I bought an Asus Z790-P last August 2024. It doesn't have a wake up feature in the BIOS where I want to have it auto boot at 7am. I talked to their tech support last August and they said it didn't have that feature. Is there a way I can have it wake up and boot at 7am?

I'm using Explorer Patcher and it's working fine, except when I see the file explorer tab on my taskbar and I right click it and choose "close all windows" nothing happens. Is there an alternate way of closing the file explorer windows? Sometimes I have about 10 of them open. I tried Task...

I installed Process Monitor. It seems to only have today's activity. The last time it happened was yesterday. Do I just need to wait until it happens again?

Still getting this irritating chime 5 notes descending then 5 notes ascending. I've tried all the above including turning all notifications off and using the do not disturb mode. Is there a reg edit that will solve this. I have a sound card and this irritating sound is coming out of into big...

I tried this: turning off Notification in Settings > System > Notifications I bet this will work - thanks everyone

Every once in while I get this irritating sound notification 5 note descending melody 1 sec pause and 5 ascending melody. This is a recording studio computer, so it's coming through my loud studio monitors. I went to Control Panel / Sound and on the 2nd tab it says "sound scheme" I put it on no...

So True Launch Bar V8.0 is showing up as a virus. Does it remove it or can you create an exclusion, so it stays intact? Is this what the Quick Launch looks like on the 24H2 desktop with True Launch Bar V8.0 installed? What's wrong with it? With Explorer Patcher the Quick launch is all the...

I'm currently using Explorer Patcher. Underclocked, what does that virus link mean. I see Acronis listed 2x in there. I've used Acronis for many years, but now I prefer Macrium. I make a new image any time I install Win updates, which is sometimes 2 or 3 months other times days.
