Someone on here kindly gave me the means to install Windows 7 games on Windows 10 quite a while ago. It now no longer works - Windows 10 has had a number of big updates since then.
I am really just whingeing about the demise of the best Chess program (on Windows 7). Yes i still have alaptop with Windows 7 but my main computer is on Windows 10 and Windows 7 won't be supported after 2019. ...
Chess and the future!

"Open File - Security Warning" each time I open WinExplorer on toolbar
The pinned icon on my toolbar has always worked fine. Earlier today, I was having a problem where the folder on the left column wouldn't expand. In the end, rebooting fixed that so I'm not working on that, but in the process of TRYING to fix that, I tried unpinning my icon and recreating it by deleting the icon already there, clicking START, left-clicking "Windows Explorer" and choosing "Pin to...

How to make a notebooks Bluetooth device visible to others? Pairing ?
I have activated the built-in Bluettooth device on a Win7 notebook.
However I cannot pair from some SmartPhones to it.
This was only possible from one Smartphone.
When I scan the Bluetooth devices from other Android smarphones the Notebook Bluetooth is not visible.
I guess I have to make it visible (again) in addition.
But how do I tell Win7 to make it visible?

BSOD double fault, win32k.sys using excessive kernel stack space
Hi all, I unfortunately can't run any 3rd party software or upload raw data from the PCs in question, but we're seeing a large number of BSODs at work and all have a similar signature to this - a double fault when the kernel thread looks like it overruns the 24kb available, and almost all that is being used by win32k.sys apparently recursing. Why on earth win32k seems to be going through the same...
