  1. Is there a way to change from mouseover to click-to-open?


    My mouse is so sensitive, and I've done everything I can to fix that. I'm so sick of dropdown & popout windows opening if my mouse gets anywhere close to them, plus now if the cursor gets anywhere near it, it OPENS things on my bookmark bar.



    I just want to go back to having to click to open menus on sites and on my desktop. There has to be a way! This drives me crazy! It wasn't like this before Windows 10, so something changed. I just want to change it back.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

  3. Application/Tab Mouseover Tooltip

    Using Windows 10 Version 1903:

    A small box appears over my applications providing information on the application. It looks like a simple mouseover, and when I left click on it and then left click anywhere on the screen it moves to that location on the screen. It opens with any application, and it first showed up immediately after a restart so I'm not sure restarting my computer will help. How do I get rid of it?

    Thanks.

    Update: I also notice that a notification sound plays whenever I switch apps or click on a different app. I'm assuming its part of the same setting as the mouseover as this is the first time I've noticed it.

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Is there a way to change from mouseover to click-to-open? :)

    In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

    • Open powershell as administrator
    • Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
    • Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)
