With the next patch update looming in 10 days, I wanted to know if it took anyone else's system 40 minutes to an hour just to download and install 2 to 4 patches? Even creating the restore point takes a while.
My system has Windows 7 -64 bit with SP-1 as the OS, 1.86 GHz CPU, and 3 GB RAM.
I'm not very tech savvy and not comfortable doing many software manipulations. I was hoping for an...
Any way to speed up the download and installation of monthly patches?

CCleaner Active Monitoring Returns ... over and over, and over ...
Did I overlook this? I have minimal understanding of these system protection tools. Recently I have noticed ccleaner present as a process (CCleaner64.exe) in Task Manager when I am sure it was not there before. This led me to suspect, then discover it's presence in the Startup tab of Sys Config. So I proceeded to 'hunt down' the cause and I noticed the 'Enable Active Monitoring' box checked. I...

mouse clicks on its own, clicks twice, clicks sporadically
On my Dell Optiplex 780, both the left click and the right click are affected. While I am moving the mouse, things will randomly activate as if I "clicked" it. When I do actually click the mouse, it clicks twice even though I clicked once. When I am trying to click and drag, the mouse just clicks sporadically preventing me from moving what I intended to move. Sometimes when I am not using the...

MSSEssentials Help
I have my windows update configured to notify me and only I can select/choose to update or not. Lately, it seems there is a Windows update for Microsoft Security Essentials everyday. I don't know about others but if I ignore the MSE update long enough it will eventually install itself. So much for my option to choose! Also, at one time I think they were 'optional', but now are coming to me as...

Hi guys. I've been going to great lengths recently trying to install Win 7 HPrem x64 as dual-boot on the machine specified in my details, yet, so far - to no success.
I initially set it up with Win 10 since ASUS provide drivers compatible only with it, yet I wanted to have Seven at least as dual boot. I had disabled 'Secure boot' in UEFI so everything was expected to go smoothly.
At first I...

Change Taskbar font
I am aware that similar questions have been asked, but reading the posts I cannot find the answer.
I have tried the usual options in Windows to change the taskbar font, but nothing seems to work. I have also noted the registry fixes, and still no change. I am happy to edit the registry if I knew what to edit. Does anyone know how to change the font? Would be much appreciated.
