Greetings! I just recently bought a pair of Bluetooth headphones to use with my laptop. Every time I want to use them, which is daily, I have to start up my list of Bluetooth devices and select the headphones and then when the connect window pops up, my headphones are automatically connected as a Telephony device and not connected for listening to music as would like. I then have to disconnect...

Recently a "MICROSOFT TECHNICIAN" gained access to my Dads computer and disabled almost all the services. I'm attempting to reset the services and recover his PC without reloading windows. My question is, is there a list of minimum required services to get back online? Or do I need to reset all of these one by one? Just looking for an easier way. Maybe help someone else down the...

I am a Word/Office Luddite who prefers Office 2000. It does what I want and most often I can do it without spending time 'learning' how an 'improved version' does it 'differently.' I regularly copy and paste text that contains italics, so I do not want to resort to using paste special - unformatted text in this instance. I set Word to display all formatting marks. Recently I encountered a...

Copy, cut & paste question

I move a lot of data on my SSDs, and thus I try to reduce the amount of data that I write to my drives. One method is to cut a file and paste it to the new location where I want it to be. The theory being is that if I cut the file rather than copy it I won't have double the amount of data written on the drive. So with that. Does cut actually move data, or is it still replicating data on the...

The adverts that popup recommending various removal software downloads to buy don't inspire me with any confidence! Does anyone know of a macro that is...
