    2 Fax Modems on a Windows 10 Pro PC


    We have a lot of incoming faxes and outgoing faxes. Sometimes the outgoing faxes cannot be delivered since the incoming faxes tie up the line.

    So we thought about having one fax line for incoming faxes, and one fax line for outgoing faxes.

    However WIN 10 Pro only allows one fax modem. There does not seem any way around this in Windows 10.


    If I connected a 2nd fax modem on a second PC, I could designate that as the outgoing fax. And have all the incoming faxes received on the first PC.


    However our software places the created Outgoing faxes in the outbox on the Incoming Fax PC.

    I could create a share on the Incoming FAX PC outbox located at "c:\programdata\microsoft\window nt\msfax\queue" as say Z:.


    But my problem remains how to get the Outgoing Fax Server, MSFAX program to find the outgoing faxes on the z: drive.


    Is there a registry change I could make to the MSFAX program to use the z: drive instead of "c:\programdata\microsoft\window nt\msfax\queue"?


    Thank you.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  3. ZTE MODEM is not working on Creators update.

    Hi,

    Your modem's driver may not be compatible with the Windows 10 Creators Update, thus the error message you're receiving. Here are our suggestions for fixing the issue:

    1) Update the modem driver through Device Manager.

    • Press your Windows key and type Device Manager.
    • Right-click on it then look for the driver related to your ZTE
      modem.
    • Once located, click on the drop down button and choose Update driver.

    2) Contact the modem's manufacturer.


    • Since this issue also deals with a third-party product, contacting the support team of your manufacturer would also be a good step to take.

    Let us know if you need more help.

    Cellular Modem Windows 10 Creators Update

    Hello Brian,

    A stop error (also called a "blue screen" error) can occur if a problem causes your PC to shut down or restart unexpectedly. These errors can be caused by both hardware and software issues.

    For us to better assist you, we'd like to know the following:

    • Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:
    • Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.
    • Click OK.
    • What is the exact error message you're getting when you encounter the blue screen?
    • Have you tried updating your cellular modem to its latest driver? You can contact the modem manufacturer to check the latest compatible driver for Windows 10.

    Meanwhile, we suggest performing the steps on this article
    on how to troubleshoot blue screen errors on Windows 10.

    We look forward to your response.

    Regards.
