Go right back to seven and don't look back ten is trouble in many ways then one as they say, the good, and the terrible and, the ugly that's the case here, regarding this new sleazy win ten os all negative from any Windows forum on the Internet
Can anyone tell where is the "Touch keyboard" icon registry entry located? I tried using RegShot, but it the log file seems useless.
While I admire your work and the tweaks that you have discovered.. .. You realize you are just annoying the majority with the PDF distribution. It's like DRM - it tries to prevent privacy, with cost of usability. However pirates avoid it entirely and the only ones suffering are the normal people. In this case, any "credit thief" will get whatever they want to get, no matter the format you are offering it. It may slow them down few minutes, maybe an hour, but same like its your hobby to create & share tweaks.. it's also their hobby to steal something without giving credit. It won't matter to them. Hence you are only causing the misery for the very people you want to offer your tweaks. I'm not saying credit thieves are good, but it is pointless to try to annoy them like this, when it is annoying everyone else too. In any case, thanks for your work and motivation for the tweaks.
ericgl I found the correct way to disable BackgroundUploadTask. This method can also be applied for other purposes such as making the values into the register. The launch takes place under the rules of the system. Psexec.exe should be in the folder with the bat. Code: @echo cd /d %~dp0 psexec -s cmd /c schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\SettingSync\BackgroundUploadTask" /Disable @pause p.s. Psexec.exe does not work when manual disconnect network adapter in Network Center! But without the Internet works.
mehhhhhhhhh firefox sucks these days. pale moon also sucks now due to bugs and not supporting updated addons like a newer ublock, current legacy version was causing 1gb+ memory usage and slow browsing. now installed chromium and it's super smooth.
Same problem with Firefox (very slow), but just install the Nightly Beta and then it works fine. Only because this bug / slow issue I don’t switch to Chromium or Edge
I refuse to ever use chrome. it should be classed as spyware in my technical opinion. i use a waterfox portable edition that works absolutely perfect. i agree though that firefox itself x86 and x64 versions are just too slow anymore.
imho I think Firefox or some derivative, with config tweaks is still the better choice if some level of autonomy is still important to you. (Side note: Opera was sold to a Chinese consortium back in 2016). I didn't find a topic devoted specifically to browsers. I wonder if there is any interest in beginning a dedicated thread for Firefox (or more generically, Web Browsers?)
