    Windows 7 to Pack Virtual Windows XP

    ah! lol. I selected xp from a list and thought that was all that was needed, turns out its just suggesting settings based on the selection. I'll just read up on this. I'm rushing into it without much thought here.

    ya I'm an idiot dude. I thought this would be like the windows mobile emulator in visual studio where everything is loaded already for you. I dont exactly have an xp disc laying around here at work lol.

    I'll just have to play with it when I get home.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  10. Can you select multiple open windows (not all) to close?

    in Windows 10 Support
    Can you select multiple open windows (not all) to close?: In Windows XP, I was able to Ctrl+Click windows on the taskbar to select them, then right click on any one of them & close all (a context menu option). Is there a way to do this in Windows 10? Is there an app that will do this? Thanks in advance? 125873
