Windows 10: Is there a way to reduce the delay before this tooltip appears?

Small feature suggestions - About screen tooltip + forums link

Suggestion: When you rest the mouse cursor over the videocard brand, a tooltip to appear, saying "About GPU-Z...".
I think this would be nice. What do you think?

EDIT: Also, having a link to the program forums (these forums *Smile ) in the About screen would be nice - some other programs have that, see the Core Temp About screen, for example.

 

Tooltips displayed in the wrong language

Although my version of Windows is set to English and the GPU-Z "Tooltip Language" appears as "System Default (English (United Kingdom))", the tooltips are appearing in the language corresponding to my system locale (or possibly keyboard layout), not the actual system language. I frequently change the keyboard layout and date format (to match the clients I'm working for and the language I'm writing in), but the system language never changes (and software is supposed to run in that language).

I can manually select "English (United States)", but this basically makes it impossible for me to select the "correct" language (i.e., UK English), because it doesn't appear in the list (other than as "system default" - but is then ignored). Obviously it makes no difference to me if it's in UK or US English, but people with other language combinations might have a problem.

It seems the routine that populates the language list in the options is (correctly) determining the system language, but the routine that actually generates the tooltips is (incorrectly) reading the system locale instead of language.

 

Tooltips in Notification Tray In Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

Were the tooltips available earlier? If so, did you make any changes due to which the issue with tooltip occurred?

If the tooltips were available earlier, I suggest you to perform system restore and check.

System Restore is a feature that allows users to restore their system to a previous state. It offers a way to undo all the changes in the system files, registry keys, installed programs, etc, to a previous
state, without affecting personal files such as documents, photos or e-mails.

• 
  1. Windows key + R to open Run window.
  
  2. On run command type “rstrui.exe” (without double code) and press OK.
  
  3. Select the restore point and follow the onscreen instruction.
  

If it doesn't help, I suggest you to run System File Checker (SFC Scan) as this could be an issue with corrupt system files.

System File Checker is a utility in Microsoft Windows that allows users to scan for and restore corruptions in Windows system files

Perform System File Check (SFC), and then check if this fixes the issue.
Follow the steps:

• Press Windows Key + X.
• Click on Command prompt (Admin).
  
• In Command prompt, type ‘sfc /scannow’ without quotes and hit
  Enter.

Also applies to Windows 10.
