  1. General Save Search Query in Windows 11

    As I needed a list that I could refer to on other days, the saved search, of only the search method, meant that the next time I could use it, but had to wait almost as long for it to do it again - no help at all I am afraid. I am using a key file that I include in new folders since 2007 to make...
  2. General Save Search Query in Windows 11

    It appears to be a bit faster, but not by much! Pity but thanks
  3. General Save Search Query in Windows 11

    I have saved a query as in your screenshots but i seems as if the query is saved but NOT the results. So opening the saved search file simply causes the search to be repeated. Is that right? (As I am searching the whole of a 4TB drive, doing it again rather misses the point I would have thought.)
  4. General Save Search Query in Windows 11

    Another thing I didn't know! Am I right in thinking that if the dispaly is shut down, after the set time, then the Search stops? If so, how can it be restarted at the same stage without having to start over?
  5. Personalization Restore Classic File Explorer with Ribbon in Windows 11

    I have been reading about the 24H2 problems and it looks as if the problem of opening files is due to some conflict with that. I have installed a trial of PDF-XChange Editor as suggested and that works without the Adobe problem. I have opened files in every way both with the programme open or...

    I need to make a small addition to my Computer spec. Will do that in a few minutes.
  7. Personalization Restore Classic File Explorer with Ribbon in Windows 11

    When PDF started to become popular I used Acrobat 5 and Distiller. That was with XP that I was sorry to see go! I always thought that if MS had waited a bit the much faster processors together with high capacity storage would have enabled small changes to XP that would have avoided Vista, 7, 8...
  8. Personalization Restore Classic File Explorer with Ribbon in Windows 11

    Yes, admin and I am the only one. I am beginning to think that whatever the fault is, it came as a result of some conflict between the new version of Adobe Acrobate and the new 24H2 update. I am researching and find that there are mnay, many questions being asked online about Acrobat. Here are...
  9. Personalization Restore Classic File Explorer with Ribbon in Windows 11

    I always use OEClassic. I have switched the SwitchEx options back to Win 11 as there have been some other oddities, especially Acrobat Reader DC which no longer opened from its shortcut or direct from the exe file wven though I had set run as as administartor in properties! Of course that may...
  10. Personalization Restore Classic File Explorer with Ribbon in Windows 11

    SwitchExplorer - the original version you suggeseted and then the update from GitHub, Both gave the oddity I describe. I will check again today after restart from updates.
  11. Personalization Restore Classic File Explorer with Ribbon in Windows 11

    But, I did find one oddity today. If I go to the File Explorer link than it opens Win 10 version as I selected. But if I opened a file attachment in an email, then it opened the Win 11 File Exporer even if the Win 10 version was still open! There is a later version on Github but I don't know if...

    That works well. I have become increeasigly annoyed with the way that File Expolrer has been butchered by Win 11 changes. When I got 24H2 today that was the last straw. Now I can get a usable link on Start Menu in my Open-Shell configuration.
  13. General Search in Windows 11 File Explorer

    Interesting reading, but I don't think I would have found even the title :what:
