  1. %userprofile% is wrong


    After changing my username from Jerol to Jerold using netplwiz on Windows 10, and frebooting, %username% is Jerold BUT other environment variables, like userprofile, still use Jerol. How do I fix this?

    :)

    Why update the original 7970 BIOS to the Ghz edition? It OC's to that anyway...

    Have you tried flashing it back to default?

    Cannot paste into Windows Mail

    Hi,

    To help you with your concern, we suggest that you follow the steps below on how to clear the clipboard in Windows 10:

    • On the search box, kindly type or copy and paste, cmd.exe /c cd 2>"%UserProfile%\empty.txt" & clip < "%UserProfile%\empty.txt".
    • Click on cmd.exe /c cd 2>"%UserProfile%\empty.txt" & clip < "%UserProfile%\empty.txt"
      (Run command).
    • Try to use the copy and paste function again.

    If the issue still persists, we suggest that you repair or reset the Mail app. To do so, follow the steps below:

    • Open Settings, and select Apps.
    • On the Apps & features tab, find the name of the missing app. Click the app and select
      Advanced options (if available).
    • If a Repair option is available, click Repair. If this option is not available, or if Repair does not resolve the issue, you may also try the
      Reset option, though you might lose any app data that was saved.

    Let us know how it goes.

    %userprofile% is wrong

    Stuck on converting ESD to WIM File using a script tool


    The error may indicate that the install.esd was built using the Recovery compression option. Faster and smaller in size build but cannot be mounted. Using this option, the conversion takes about 20 seconds, with Max compression will take 4 minutes but can be mounted.

    If you wish, you can try:
    Copy install.esd to desktop. Open Admin command and copy/paste each step below to run.

    1. cd %USERPROFILE%\Desktop
    2. Get the source index for Windows edition to use in step 3:
      dism.exe /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\install.esd
    3. dism /Export-Image /SourceImageFile:"install.esd" /SourceIndex:8 /DestinationImageFile:"install.wim" /Compress:Max
    4. Verify:
      dism.exe /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\install.wim

    NOTE:
    In step 3. The install.esd used is from the MCT ISO. Index: 8 is for Windows 10 Pro
