    Is there a way to use "normal" icons on the taskbar? That tiny little line of pixels symbolizing which programs I have currently opened is not enough for my eyes...

    Cortana works fine on mine, did nothing different, except raise levels as high as they would go and rebooted:worthy:

    For Cortana use:
    In system tray, right click on volume control, click on recording at top, Highlight microphone, then click on properties, click on levels at top, raise all the way, both, then click on listen, Click on listen to this device, click on apply at bottom, now talk and you should be able to hear yourself through your speakers, now uncheck listen to this device, click on apply at bottom. Reboot. Now you mic is setup to talk to Cortana, you have to say [hey Cortana] first, every time you use her, she even said NE is going to win Super Bowl, don't forget to click on microphone next to search box when you first open Cortana.:biggrin:

    This is not "normal" icons, but this setting may help.;)

    Code:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
    "TaskbarGlomLevel"=dword:00000001

    Anyone else get random "COM Surrogate has stopped working" errors mainly when dealing with thumbnails with .mkv videos?

    1) You can, but it's not recommended by MS.
    2) Only MS knows that, and I don't really like guessing.
    3) Late 2015
    4) Only Windows 7 SP1 or Windows 8.1 Update users can upgrade to latest TP, using Windows Update. And the version of Windows they are running must be retail activated!
