    Can I display multiline message?

    I want to display multiple lines of text in a dialog but VBS doesn't acknowledge CR and LF. Is there another way to achieve this? "Truth will sooner come out from error than from confusion." Francis Bacon (1561-1626)

    How do I run a repair of IE11?

    IE11 is playing up badly. It doesn't like opening or downloading PDFs (I use Foxit Reader), and lately it baulks at doing a Google Search. I have a feeling that it needs a tune-up. How can I give it one? "Truth will sooner come out from error than from confusion." Francis Bacon (1561-1626)

    Looking for Vision Training

    I am using Visio 2013 and for me to say, "I'm having trouble with Visio." is to be polite. I can't find practical user training in Visio anywhere, and documentation is even more scarce. Does anyone have any polite suggestions apart from "Use SmartDraw" or something? Thanks "Truth will sooner...

    Windows Ten Icon

    I have been blessed with the arrival of a white 'Windows Flag' icon amongst the little icons at the right of my task bar. If I hover the cursor over it the pop-up reads 'Get Windows 10'. I dare not click on it in case it installs Windows 10 (I shudder at the prospect). [purpleface] Please...

    SearchProtect

    I have a new passenger in my machine called SearchProtect. I can't find it. [rainbow] I can't uninstall it. [flame] I don't know what it is. [curse] I don't know what it does. [hairpull3] The closest I can get is the folders shown in the attachment - neither of which exist in Windows...

    How do I disable Autorun?

    I have had advice that the Autorun functionality is sometimes used as a conduit for infection with Malware. I'd like to turn it off. How do I do that? "Truth will sooner come out from error than from confusion." Francis Bacon (1561-1626)

    Google Chrome seems to be Malware Conduit

    I just ran Malwarebytes on my machine (results attached). Well, that is strange because I uninstalled Chrome ages ago.

    Winsxs sxs

    Watching MalwareBytes at work yesterday made me aware of the huge number of files, many GB of them, in C:\WINDOWS\WINSXS (I am using Windows 7). Looking in that folder it seems to me that most of these files are automatically generated by some software or other. I suspect that most of them are...

    Privileges in Windows 7

    W7 seems to have a thing about privileges. I cannot remember having to set MS Word to "Run as Administrator" under any other O/S, and that is not the only application I have had to treat that way. (Before I did that to Word it could not save templates, for example.) Another little issue on a...
