  1. how to stop auto adding shortcut on one device.


    I have two devices: a desktop and a surface. The two devices serve separate functions. I do not want whatever is in the desktop in the surface and vice versa. However, whenever I add a shortcut on the desktop, it is also added on the surface. When I delete it from the surface, it is also deleted from the desktop. How do I stop this from happening? Please help.

    :)

    ad blocker doesnt run for my website shortcuts

    first off, im using IE11, yes I know boo hiss its the devil, its too unsafe, but anyway....

    I have adblocker and I cant find any reports on this issue but if I open the browser with the browser link adblock runs and its protected, but lets say I have a desktop shortcut to go to my email or here, well when you use a desktop shortcut to the websites, the browser opens without adblock running. I confirmed this in task manager that it is indeed still off and not a running process. I also noted that adblock is not listed in the services list but im not sure if it should be or not.

    so any help or advice on this would be great, I use desktop shortcuts for stuff and this means adblocker isn't running for nearly half of my online activities, maybe more. if it cant run anytime the browser is open then why have it, I see nothing in the way of settings or preferences options except a website block list or allow ads for this site.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    How to stop a program from adding a Quick access shortcut?

    The rationale is that Quick Access shows a list of all recently accessed folders just in case you'd find it useful. Your Google drive appears because you recently accessed it, as will other folders as you visit them.

    Only by unticking 'show frequently used folders in Quick access', but that will turn it off for all folders, not just your Google drive.
