    Increasing the reaction time of Windows links/shortcuts


    Hi there,

    I've just joined this forum (I was a member of the Win8 forum) and don't know if this question has arisen before.

    I have a number of links (shortcuts) to our 2 NAS devices in various folders on my PC. These NAS devices go to standby to conserve power after about 30sec of non-use. Whenever I drag a file across these links en route to somewhere else, I have to wait until the drive(s) power up before I can complete the drag operation. Rather than turn off the NASs' power conservation, is there a way of having these links require at least 0.5 sec before activating? (Currently they seem to be almost instantaneous.)

    Yes, I know I could look for an alternative route to drag my file that misses these links, but when I am focused on the destination as a step in a multi-step action, I just don't see those links sitting there in my path.

    Any advice would be helpful, so thanks in advance,
    Paul.

    :)

    Increasing the font size of the time in the status bar

    Thank you for your suggestion. I will try the player.



    I don't want to lock the phone just to see the time - I wish to see the time when I am using the phone, so I will hold out for some other ideas.

    Increasing the font size of the time in the status bar

    Hi I am new to Nokia and the 1020. I increased the font size but it does not change the size of the clock time in the status bar.



    Is anyone aware of a way of doing that or perhaps an app that allows a bigger font and stays on top somewhere on screen?



    I have the magnifier set on but it makes it way too big and I cannot work out what I have to do to reduce the level of magnification to normal + 30%ish. I sthere anything like a registry and a commeand I could enter instead of the fancy finger work?



    Lastly, if anyone can recommend a music player app for the 1020 that does music folders (not playlists or genre lists), I would be most grateful.



    Many thanks.
