Why was it necessary for the addon author to name his creation with a vulgar title?
Would it not have conveyed the same message with "Don't mess with paste"?
I am sure many more would be willing to install his app with this tamer title.
Personally, I am unwilling to install with its present naming.
Have we really stooped this low for this to be acceptable?

To be blunt - there is no way on god's earth that I would willingly upgrade to WIN 10 (see the probs amply and accurately described below) BUT as another poster mentioned, sooner or later you're going to have to (or go LINUX...nooooo).

This is NOT to decry this article, it is a good headsup, but I would far prefer something on how to get hold of a particular OFFICIAL version of WIN 10 -

Windows 10 LTSB

in which it is said, there are no forced "ads" AND you can stop upgrades or delay them till a time of your choosing (recommended). However obtaining this version is problematic as, it would appear, MS wants to call a halt on user's who want genuine choice on how they run their PC.

I simply cannot afford a system that may be borked with no notice by the WIN 10 policy of forced upgrades.

I started having stability problems with LastPass in Win 7 at least 8 months ago. I found Bitwarden after a search added to Firefox and synced with LastPass without issue.

I haven't looked back since.

I'm a relic. I still prefer separate programs that do what I want and no more. About a month ago, I finally took some time to evaluate UK's Kalendar. It is the closest thing I've found to my first PIM, Windates. This one does exactly what I want, and it's fast and easy to configure as I choose. I'll stick with it. The developer is accessible. http://www.ukrebs-software.de/

Thanks for those patch sites: it's good to know they exist if I ever need them.

I always take the latest updates but I am a confident user of Windows so most of the fears don't bother me. Over many years using Windows, the most intractable problem that I've had with taking the latest updates is not that an update causes me problems but that the update install does not complete and I've been stuck in a loop of repeated attempts to install.

I'm been running on 1809 since it was available for manual install. It has given me a few productivity and performance improvements which I am benefiting from. I would like to install it on my other computers but I had neglected to keep the downloaded files so I'm stuck waiting for Microsoft to re-release it.

After I installed 1809, I was immediately able to confirm that I hadn't lost any files because I use FreeFileSync to keep a local (i.e. on the same computer) copy of my files. All that I needed to do was to run the sync job to confirm that no files needed copying.

I have said for a long time, to avoid mandatory Windows updates. Similarly upgrading your current computer to Windows 10 has a lot of risk, for not much true benefit/productivity improvement
To show that my perpetual caution regarding Windows is well founded:

Google: 'Microsoft pulls Windows 10 October 2018 Update'

Microsoft has stopped distributing its latest Windows 10 October 2018 Update.
“We have paused the rollout of the Windows 10 October 2018 Update (version 1809) for all users as we investigate isolated reports of users missing some files after updating,” says Microsoft on its support site for Windows Update.
Microsoft has struggled with the quality of Windows updates recently.
The company delayed its Windows 10 April 2018 Update earlier this year over Blue Screen of Death issues

I haven't tested it in Windows 10 on all my programs, I like Wizmouse because it works in windows that don't normally support scrolling. If the Windows 10 built in feature will scroll in windows that don't support scrolling I would use that. I'll re-enabled Wizmouse and see if Windows 10 supports scrolling in the same windows.

You can disable Wizmouse from the tray icon, just click on the icon and uncheck Enabled. That will leave the Windows 10 function active.

If you are running Windows 7 or Windows 8, and you are happy with your current hardware and software, I recommend you do not upgrade
There are no productivity benefits to be gained to offset the incompatibilities that can easily arise
Remember that Windows 10 will insist on upgrading you to the latest 2018 version
Microsoft wont then provide you a guarantee that your current hardware or software WONT STOP WORKING COMPLETELY
Have some hardware from 2014 that works perfectly? A new operating system four years later can easily render that printer for example, unusable
Hardware manufacturers want you to buy the latest hardware product, and often do NOT provide drivers for your old software or hardware.
Also assume that the update may erase some of tour personal files and documents. This may not happen, but again Microsoft cannot guarantee against loss of your existing photos, files and data. So before upgrading search your entire C drive for any personal files and make a copy of all these files
You have been warned !
Windows 10 is the future so we all will be using it soon enough. Just upgrade safely without regrets.

I just now had a chance to try this, and it works great. I didn't know that setting was there, thank you. :)

This is weird;works like a charm om my Win10 64b v1803.

Ninja is no longer free. US$19 for 1 year.

I use AlwaysMouseWheel for several years now. It didn't let me down... until recently: The last two versions (4.08 & 4.11) don't work in Edge (at least for me). So I stayed with (portable x64) version 4.04 (until that get fixed)

COPY AND PASTE............................HEAR> www.profitclip.com

I've read about it being a feature on a few tech sites, most had a title something along the lines of "software you won't need in Windows 10". Clicking from window to window used to annoy me no end - one of the things I wished Microsoft would do something about - until I came across these programs. Wizmouse goes on every system I have anything to do with. I don't think anyone notices, but I like to imagine them being a little happier using their Windows systems. :)

I haven't seen anything official from Microsoft about that, but it's been mentioned in several blogs, so I don't know. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The shrug is a unicode emoji (U+1F937). As far as I know there's no way to reproduce it easily in
Windows since it makes use of a character on the Japanese keyboard. I've looked high and low for a way to reproduce this in Windows, if you find one, let me know.
You can use an AutoHotKey script or other text expander to insert it, but I just insert it from the clipboard utility I use.
You can copy and paste the one above, or you can find it some places on the internet where you can copy and paste, like this site: https://emojipedia.org/shrug/
Or you can search for shrug emoji. :)

I'm not sure. I read that it was, but when I uninstalled Wizmouse on my laptop that runs Windows 10 (build 1803) it didn't appear to work even with a reboot. I reinstalled Wizmouse and it works fine. I use a mouse with the laptop. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It is similar and I haven't tried it for some years. I've used it and KatMouse before. I ended up staying with WizMouse because there were windows that the other two programs wouldn't activate when scrolled and I had to click to change the focus. That may have changed in the intervening years, I'll have another look at it. :)

Cool. I use AlwaysMouseWheel for this, but this looks like a similar alternative.

Hi,

Thanks for sharing the informative post. There are lots of information available in the google and dozens of books are available in the market. But being a tester you need a good mentor and your practices for the task you do for your project. I started my blog and writing ethical information for qa professional & people who started their careers in testing. https://seleniumautomationtesting.blogspot.com

It's good to hear you were able to get some help at the MS forum. Learning more and doing what you feel comfortable with is terrific. :)

Have found that my computer's worst enemy can be me as I do not always understand complicated directions to fix/change things...or think I understand and cause a bit (?) of trouble. Altho I have come quite a ways in understanding I do have quite a ways to go...better to be safe than sorry. As for those first times cleaning the Registry, I did not know about backing things up, so there was a bit of cleanup after myself and thank goodness for those few at the MS Forum who helped me straighten everything out. I think I will stay safe for a few more years and not mess with the Registry...Thanx to you who replied.

Over the years I've heard various knowledgeable people say "don't use a registry cleaner" and "yes it's ok to use a registry cleaner". ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's always good to use the backup option in Ccleaner or back up the registry before using another registry cleaner.

I like to use the free version of Resplendence Registrar Registry Manager if I'm making changes in the registry. I'll add that unless you're using a known registry hack that can be undone or know what you're doing it's best not to make any changes in the registry. 

It's probably a good idea not to let any "registry cleaners" touch your registry database. Years ago they said CCleaner was conservative and safe to use (also regarding the registry cleaning part), contrary to some other registry cleaners that are more aggressive. I have used CCleaner (generally and the registry part) for years without any problems (as far as I know ;-)). In CCleaner there is an option shown before making changes to the registry - to backup your registry. I always use that option now.

Thanks for this article!
When I opened Gizmo's site, I was met with this message:

"Oops, it looks like you are using an ad blocker.

I'm using ABP - Ad Blocker Plus - for Chrome, but I thought I had deactivated it for Gizmo's site. Well, it was easy to deactivate it (again). You just have to click on the ABP icon, then click on "Trust site". You don't have to disable your ad blocker completely, you can do it just for this site (and other sites which you want to support). Other ad blockers may do it differently, but I believe all have the option of "white-listing" sites.

A calculator without brackets ( ) is not very useful imho
Apart from functionality, the key feature of a calculator for me, is large buttons, to prevent eyestrain
No point having a calculator with buttons so small you strain your vision everytime you use it !

During my search for a simple free Windows calculator over many years, I was surprised just how many poorly designed calculators there are
And surprised how few good free calculators there are

My recommendation first appeared in 2014 in TechSupportAlert, in the "Best Free Calculator" section
My preference is 'eCalc', which has two Windows versions, a basic calculator, and also a scientific calculator
Both versions are simple to use, with a good layout, and each can do more than just add, subtract, multiply and divide
Google: eeweb .com tools download

In 2014, I recommended both ECalc and Moffsoft FreeCalc (Google: moffsoft .com freecalc)

Both recommendations were free Windows calculators with noncluttered interfaces, and just as important: clear, LARGE BUTTONS, to protect your vision
As with all my recommendations over many years on TechSupportAlert, I have no affiliation to the recommended freeware

Great tip, thanks!

I'm glad you like it. :)

Good to know about the cookies, thanks. I'm not understanding why setting history to not remember would make a difference to the cookies that LastPass sets. I've cleared site history (everything, not just recent) and cache and LastPass still has me logged in.

Simply wanted to inform you that you have people like me who appreciate your work. Definitely a great post. Hats off to you! The information that you have provided is very helpful.

Hi Rhiannon

The LastPass extension sets four cookies, has its own cache and uses a "hidden" cookie-type file under a GUID to store user preferences and probably the trusted device details, so setting the browser to block or remove history and site info would, I think, be bound to interfere wth LastPass functionality.
