Why in the world would you discontinue Windows Live Mesh? The ability to synchronize any folder or file located anyplace on the PC is of great value to many of us. Skydrive seems to require us to move files to be synched to the skydrive folder......just as useless as drop box. Please reconsider, or else modify Skydrive to accommodate View the full article

I am trying to switch from using a Local Account to a Microsoft Account on my recent reinstalled Windows 8 laptop. However, when I use the option 'Switch to a Microsoft account' and then enter my work email address I get the error: &quotThis email address is associated with a primary Microsoft account. Please use that ID.&quot I'm guessing that has happened because previously I'd associated my Domain Account with a Microsoft Account this Domain Account has the Exchange mailbox with my work email address. The computer on which I'd done this failed and was unrecoverable, so I'm unable to check any settings. I've used the link https://account.live.com/ManageAssocIds and logged in with my personal Microsoft Account and checked that my work email address isn't associated with that, it isn't and I don't have any other Microsoft accounts that I'm aware off. I've also tried logging in with my work email address at https://account.live.com/ but it tells me that the Microsoft Account doesn't exist. So what I need, to be able to use my work email address for a new Microsoft Account, is either: (a) Find out the details of the Primary Microsoft Account to which my work email address is associated or if that's not possible (b) have my work email address released/removed from it's association with a Primary Microsoft Account. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? View the full article

I have successfully set up this virtual machine and have 2 questions. 1 - I hate that you have to press CTRL-ALT-LEFT ARROW to free the cursor from the Virtual Machine's window. My wife has limited ability with her hands and I wondered if a function key could be used to replace that ? 2 - I can't figure a way on re-boot to start the virtual machine and CONNECT to it. On reboot I would like the Windows XP machine started, the window for the XP machine opened, and a program inside the XP machine to be started. Is this possible ? Thanks for any help.

Hi, I've recently migrated my data (8,5Tb) from Windows Home Server v1 (Drive Extender) to Windows 8 Pro (Storage Spaces parity mode). The pool is made by 11x2Tb HDs and the Storage Space is 20Tb thin provisoned to ensure me a 8192 cluster size for further expasion. What I've noticed is that I have by now 2,5Gb of Non-Paged-Pool memory locked of my 16 Gb Ram installed! Using poolmon.exe I found that the non paged pool is allocated to a proces with TAG &quotSpBu&quot that it seems to be related to StorageSpaces driver?! It seems also that the more files I add to the SSpace the more non paged pool grows btw, if I free space from the SSpace the non paged pool decreases. So, my question is: Is it a normal behaviour that Storage Spaces needs to allocate so mouch memory (2,5Gb for 8,5Tb of data in parity mode) or I have some other problem maybe related to my additional Promise controller driver?

hi when i right click on start menu to run command prompt,its not running!!! also,cmd not running in metro when click cmd run as administrator? when i right click my computer,not running “manage”. how solving it? tnx View the full article

I'm having trouble getting my wifes laptop to display the proper &quotpictures&quot using the metro &quotpictures&quot application. Let me explain our setup. I have a desktop (my machine) with a dedicated media drive that holds all of our documents, pictures, videos, and music. On my machine I simply included those directories under the various &quotproperty&quot dialogs as additional &quotlibrary locations&quot. So on my machine when I pull up the pictures application it shows them just fine. Next, I shared those same media directories with everyone on the network so she could easily see them using explorer. Once she was given access I did the same thing on her laptop, included those shared folders under the various &quotproperty&quot dialogs as additional &quotlibrary locations&quot. Whenever she pulls up her documents or pictures in explorer she can see the extra &quotshared&quot locations just fine. The problem, however, is when she uses her metro style pictures application it doesn't seem to be including pictures from those additional locations. How can I get this to work so her pictures, documents, music, etc shows exactly the same way? Thanks! - jeff I wish I could program in theory. Everything works there. View the full article

There appears to be a growing crowd of users experiencing BSODs involving the Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouses. I, for example, have the WMM4000 on a Vista 32 bit machine. If the receiver is unplugged, instant BSOD (IRQL-type error). Even then, on occasion, the laptop will just hit the same BSOD error on its own.Is there a definite answer for fixing these mice?
