    Restrict an application to one occurrence


    I'd like to restrict my Family History software application to just one one occurrence, to minimise the possibility of making different alts on two different occurrences of the program I'm a home (WIn10 64) user, with a single user, and no network access to the software I want to limit. Is this possible?

    :)

    EDIT : I did what you said and tried without G (second time, didn't take screen shots), same error. I did notice that NTFS Primary 3 (NONE) doesn't have a drive letter associated with it?

    Restrict Internet and SMS operation for certain Applications

    Hi,

    I was wondering if it is possible to restrict any installed application on N97 to restrict accessing Internet or network or sending any sms without asking permission ??



    I have installed VOPIUM client and its automatically keep on sending SMS and huge list of SMS billing for me ot UK .



    Java applications can be disabled by using Java Suit in Application Manager but I am not able to find any settings for SIS files.



    Regards,

    Zeeshan

    Multiple Occurrences for the Same Application in "App Volume and Device Preferences"

    I'm currently trying to configure my audio settings to work as-needed for streaming with OBS, aided by VoiceMeeter Potato (VMP). In VMP I am seeing multiple occurrences of the same application under the same virtual outputs. After confirming with VoiceMeeter
    support that this is not a VMP issue (it's occurring because Windows has the apps listed multiple times under the "App Volume and Device Preferences" menu), I started looking into what I could do to resolve this issue.

    As you'll see from the highlighted items in the attached image, I have multiple occurrences of Discord and Microsoft Edge showing. Edge makes some sense, I suppose, since I have two instances of that application currently running, however, there's no distinction
    in the names and it would make sense (to me) that there should be a dropdown instead of two separate line items or just a single input/output selection for the app "Microsoft Edge."

    However, with Discord, I only have one instance of the application running; there shouldn't be multiple examples of it in this menu if Edge is showing up because there's two windows open.

    This system's just brutal for rerouting my audio and it's making this whole process far more complicated that it really ought to be.

    Any suggestions?
