  1. can I get help with persistent window placement while using virtual displays?


    Wanted to see if you had any insight on Windows behavior, specifically, do you know of any option or app in windows that would save the app/tab position on virtual screens? After disconnecting and reconnecting my tabs and apps are moved from the screen they were on 2nd screen to the first screen.

    Windows 7 virtual wifi authentication mode

    Hello.

    Just a quick question to whoever is using windows 7 virtual wifi capability - when you type in "netsh wlan show hostednetwork", cmd window displays a list of settings for your hosted virtual wifi.

    I was wondering, is there a way to change authentication method from WPA2-Personal to simple WEP ?

    Cheers.
