  1. Wow that's comprehensive. Very nice. Thnx @Edwin009! Appreciate the FYI. -S
  2. LOL Time baby, I don't have Time! But yeah, the kids love this stuff. Plus... I like to read... Reading books is probably how I waste time the most... Well, I guess technically, reading is pretty important so scratch that.
  3. Interesting, so moving it around must have reset it? Good find @laaubin & @ShockerSH. At least.... I hope that's what I'm reading from this.
  4. How are you connecting them? Are you using HomeGroup to connect all the systems? For troubleshooting, I would start with the basics. Hit Windows+R and run CMD. This will open a command prompt. From there, do an IPCONFIG to get the IP address for each of your boxes. Ping 10-1 from the 10-2 box and vice versa. Any issues? This will start the process. Ping good?
  5. If you right-click on the Taskbar, do you have any toolbars enabled? Wow, never seen anything like that. Is your start button also gone?
  6. Please tell me you have some backup software running @crossword!
  7. Youch... During the migration I was pretty sure all the content came over with the upgrade.... Yikes, really hope we didn't lose an entire thread on Aero. Sorry man. -S
  8. Way back.... I've been a user of the free Family Tree software called Family.Show. We talked about it on groovyPost however the project was abandoned with no updates since 2009. The UI of Family.Show was really amazing and simple to use. Anyone out there aware of either a PC/Mac based alternative OR an online service? Working on Windows 10 would be a bonus. -S
  9. Got it! Ya know, thinking on it, I have watched a few of these. OK will give them a spin. Catch up.
  10. So yeah - I'm a Star Trek fan however I've not really done any watching other than the Big Screen movies, original series and ST Next Generation. Other than that, I've not watched any of the shows.... What's the best series on Netflix that you would recommend -- considering I have kids who will probably watch with me ages 6-11? -S
  11. Thanks Andre! So far things appear to be looking good. Hopefully they continue that way.
  12. Hi Everyone! As you can see, we have moved to a new Forum Software Platform. In order to login, please use the "I forgot my PW" feature under the login page. Any other questions/problems, please let me know! -Steve
  13. After install, I was asked to update an app called VCLibs 12 in the Microsoft App Store. Anyone have any idea what this is?
  14. Typical Patch Tuesday. Nice to see they didn't pass on this months update. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3081436 The security update for Windows 10 that is dated August 11, 2015, includes improvements to improve the functionality of Windows 10 and resolves vulnerabilities in Windows. Would be nice if they would include a few more details tho.
  15. I have to say -- I'm still learning my way around Windows 10. So far, not bad. But... I can already tell it's going to take time.
  16. FYI - Last night after work I managed to fix the search issue here on the site. If you noticed it, it's fixed. If you didn't.... ignore. -S
  17. FYI - @bBurgess just published a blip on the latest release of Windows 10 - KB3081424. http://www.groovypost.com/news/windows-10-cumulative-update-kb3081424/

  19. The IE version registry change worked to let me run Money!!! I downloaded the .dll from http://www.mediafire.com/download/zj0amk06ax57cfg/mnyob99.dll and now I can import!!!!!!!!!! That's awesome -- thanks for sharing!
  20. If you go into CMD, can you ping any external website? The fact that you can connect to skype, that does not sound like a DNS issue but then again, ya never know. Where have you set your DNS to? Is it pointing to your ISP or your default gateway (home router)? Or are you just pulling it from DHCP?
  21. how did you upgrade? Did you upgrade from Windows 10 Preview or a previous Activated OS like Windows 7 or 8?
