  1. Is a hold time for over an hour normal?


    I'm having a windows activation problem. I had to call in because the troubleshooting tool is useless. I have a legit key. I called in and was told my key is legit and that i needed to be transferred to perform remote login work. I dont know why. I'm perfectly capable of this kind of thing.

  3. Quiet Hours in Windows 10 Mobile

    HAH, found my own solution, I'm leaving the documentation in case someone else will recognize it.

    THE SOLUTION, is the second best-ever solution for implementing QH (The first best-ever will be when MS documents it!!!)

    Step 1

    Go to the notifications Icons,

    Step 2

    Push and HOLD the Quite hours notification Icon

    Voila!

    -----

    If you do not see a QH icon, you can make it appear in the notification list by this one-time action ...

    Step 1

    System Settings (wheel icon)>> Notifications and Actions >> Add or Remove quick actions.

    Step 2

    Flick through the list to find the Quiet House Icon. and switch it ON (right column).

    Is a hold time for over an hour normal?

    Is this normal?

    I have a 5870 and i get that some times. I think is because of the SSD's speed or at list that didn't happened wen i was on a normal HDD.

    Still not sure if it's normal or not.
