Re: blog: UAC survival guide

As I had issues with other programs as well (VFP not copying new exe to "program files (x86)") I gave in and: "Run secpol.msc to open the Local Security Policy and navigate to Local Policies > Security Settings. In the right pane you will see a setting User Account Control: Turn on Ad...

Re: blog: UAC survival guide

OK, thats clear. I hope that after your good advise on this it would be left to the users discretion if he wanted this or not. And that something that worked in W7 and got broke in W10 would get some attention in the not too distant future.

Re: blog: UAC survival guide

I tried but it doesn't solve my problem. As stated running in elevated mode makes my networkshares disappear. I wonder very much why that is and if anything can be done about it. I just tested on my old windows 7 PC and there it works. When executing in elevated mode my shares are there and I can ad...

Re: blog: UAC survival guide

In reply to your answer by mail: I would like to run X2 in elevated mode in W10 P 64 (same problem in 32). However, as stated in my mail all my shares disappear so thats pretty useless. I tried to fiddle with all kinds of "trusted locations" and "security settings" to no avail. U...

Re: Junctions again

Sorry, but no. Example: D:\_VG is a junction to H:\VG When I click in the tree on D:\_VG the path H:\VG is shown. Same if I use <enter> in the panel. If I use backspace in the panel I end in H:\. However if I type D:\_VG in the address bar I actually get to D:\_VG and with the backspace I end on D:\...

Junctions again

I take the risk of stirring the wrath of the gods but: I would very much like junctions to not resolve to the target for networkdrives. At least as an (advanced) option. Or am I missing something?

Small remark

I knew there was some way to copy the complete path of a file. Then somehow it sprang to memory: Alt-C. I checked the menu before but couldn't find it because it says "copy names". Maybe "copy path(s)" would be clearer. Furthermore I would like to be able to add it as button and/...

Problem "network adapter settings" W764 explorer replacement

If Xplorer2 is set to replace windows explorer, when trying to access the "change network adapter settings" on the left side of the "configuration>all ...>networkcenter" window (W7 explorer) this is not opened; instead one ends up in xplorer2 in a not to clear way (not the screen...

So tx to Kilmatead. Indeed I created symbolic links as it is impossible to create hardlinks from folders or files not on the same volume. But I had to restudy this because of the remark of Tuxman

Search symbolic links

I post this as a comment for now. I recently installed a NAS and made symbolic links to it to keep things simple and some applications, spreadsheets etc. running. This all works, except that finding files does not work across symbolic links. I am not surprised windows find doesn't but was hoping the...

Thanks for the feedback. I don't like the script solution too much as it will require a mouseclick in stead of a keyboard action. I tried it and it works ok though if I try to do it with a shortcut key it doesn't work. If the W7 prompt was not so big and ugly I probably could live with it. As for th...

Disable confirmation with shift-delete

Although it most probably is a windows(7) hack I would like to know how to disable the shift-delete confirmation dialog. Searched a lot but nobody seems to know. Most people unfortunately even don't understand the question So: No, I don't want to bypass the recycle bin altogether, only when I press ...
