    Wrong sizes of window, Edge, and Excel after restore down


    An error persists in this new Dell Windows 10 desktop. The preferred sizes of

    window ~ 7” wide x 10” long; i.e. full length of monitor

    Edge and Excel (Home and Student 2019) ~ 10” x 10”

    They should all anchor on the monitor’s top left corner.



    However, after clicking Restore Down in Maximize, they are

    window ~ 7” x 8.5”, too short

    Edge ~ 11” x 9”, too wide and short

    Excel ~ 10” x 7”, too short

    They do NOT anchor on the top left corner.



    Google Chrome does NOT have this problem, weird. All Windows updates have been installed. Two methods recommended by the following website don’t help.

    1. In (Tablet mode), (When I sign in) was changed to (Use the appropriate mode for my hardware) and rebooted numerous times.



    2. From Maximize

    a. disable the navigation pane

    b. restore down shrinks to smaller window, Edge, and Excel

    c. resize them to the correct dimensions

    d. enable navigation pane

    e. maximize

    f. restore down

    :)
     

  2. Windows XP PRO error after restore

    System restore is handy when it works like it did for me 2 days ago saving the need to reinstall all of my software as well as windows, id suggest using norton Ghost 12 for an excellent system restore feature.

  3. Edge Search Does Not Permit Change of Region


    I got these suggestions from the Microsoft Community forum.No. 1 worked for me:

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.
    We have reproduce the issue here and we are able to access non-regional search for google using Microsoft Edge.
    I would suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps.
    Step 1:
    Clear browsing data option of Microsoft Edge and check if you face the issue. To do so perform the steps below.

    1. Click on the More actions icon next to the feedback icon present on top right corner of the Project Spartan homepage.
    2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    3. Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files and click on Clear.
    Step 2:
    I suggest you to create a new user account and check if the issue occurs.

    1. Go to Settings.
    2. Choose Accounts and then select Family and other users.
    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.
    5. Click on Finish.
    6. Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.

    Directory Size Utility

    First of all nice utility, Mindweaver!
    Second of all, it's so nice to see that this section ain't dead.

    I have a few questions/suggestions, maybe you'd want to see ...
    • maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that?
    • Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs)
    • maybe you also add export list to excel?
    • there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too?
    • and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories?
