Hello, TOM. 29 Jul 14 at 06:56, you wrote to me: TW> There is a Registry edit one can do to change it if one needs or wants TW> to do so and no reinstall is necessary. From experience, messing with that low level of a setting on a functioning Windows installation is like throwing a hand grenade in a car: there's going to be damage. Just because you CAN do it doesn't mean you should. TW> It is not for the typical Win user though as you can really mess TW> things up Yeah, it's not for the atypical Windows user either. As has been said before, just because you can do something like that doesn't mean it will work. Windows will break. I've had customers who didn't listen to me then paid me $65 an hour to undo the damage they did, generally by having to reinstall Windows and wipe their hard drive completely. It's amazing how much money you can make off of Windows users who think they know how Windows works...and then break it irrevocably. :) Later, Sean ... There is no limit to how bad things can get. --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20130910* Origin: Outpost BBS * Johnson City, TN, USA (1:18/200) SEEN-BY: 3/0 633/267 280 640/384 712/0 620 848 770/1 @PATH: 18/200 261/38 712/848 633/267 |
