    I've always turned on the Administrator account in case the user forgets or screws up his/her password and is locked out. Administrator provides an alternate way to log in and then fix the problem.

    Win+R, type lusrmgr.msc. Double click on Users. Double click on Administrator. Uncheck the box that says "Account is disabled." Click OK.

    Then in the right side pane, select Administrator, click on more actions, set password. Set a password that you will remember in case the user forgets.

    Now the login screen has two users. You should log in to Administrator to make sure it works and because it needs to set up Windows for the Administrator. It will only take a minute or two.

    Anyone managed to get rid of the Libraries/Folders in My Computer explorer display? The old editing of the reg key that used to work no longer gets rid of all of them correctly.

    You have to leave the original corsairlink.exe and create a 2nd one and rename it to corsairlink1, otherwise you will get those errors.

    I saw that on the tutorial video, but didn't know why he made a copy instead of just renaming the original, cheers :)

    Any way to disable the alphabetical view of "All apps" in the start menu?
