  1. Tabs changing which desktop they live in


    Hello, I’m not sure why this is happening or how to stop it. Basically I created a number of desktops to organize all of my tabs for classes. So for example, for Project A in Class 1 I put a chrome tab that has my research, the PowerPoint presentation, and a specific sticky note. Now times that set up by 5. I originally had all of the tabs in the same desktop, and then moved them around to be organized. BUT THEY WONT STAY WHERE I PUT THEM.

  2. desktop is not listed in Ctrl+Tab toggle

    Thanks for the suggestions, DaveM121 and NikhilPosting.

    Suggestion only :

    Go to Programs and Features > scroll down to Windows essentials (2011 or 2012 ) > right click at it > click Uninstall/Change > click Repair.

    See if Repair can fix it.

    Adding.................... I can show you how to locate the Contacts.edb from your C: drive. But, I do not know how to open it or how to import it back to WLM.

    step #1.
    File Explorer options > View tab > un-check " Hide protected operating system files " > Apply/OK

    step #2.
    C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Contacts\default\DBStore\Contacts.edb

    Tabs changing which desktop they live in

    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
