There's a new beta of Screenshot Captor available for brave beta testers, with some early versions of a couple of big features that I will be developing further in the coming weeks.

This is sort of bizarre, and slightly disturbing.
I have a bank account that I rarely use, and the last time was a few years ago. Anyways, they have a kind of wacky login procedure, and I'd forgotten my password. Not wanting to get locked out, I phoned after 2 attempts to have the password reset.
Now, they have security questions, and one was "what kind of account" I have. Now, I had no clue and couldn't remember. But, wiggling around enough, I was able to get what type of account it was from the person on the phone, and I wasn't even trying.

I remember Windows used to have big problems for file type associations. When you set something as the associated app for a file extension it just overwrote the entry. I can remember stuff like WinZip and UltimateZip fighting over the zip file extension. Now I think Windows remembers the previous one so you can uninstall.
But I think it still has that same old default browser bug.
Somebody on this forum may know more about how the registry acts with default browser setting generally:

I'm not going to sit doing macros that you could do. If you don't want to use ahk then get a user level macro tool that clicks the mouse and presses the keys for you. There's plenty of free ones out there. Check the big download sites.-MilesAhead (November 26, 2012, 01:59 PM)
This is my numero uno struggle in life. I don't know how to convince myself of this, yet I know I have to eventually or else I'm going to lose my mind, literally.-superboyac (November 26, 2012, 11:59 AM)

Coming late to this thread too, out of necessity... my "next" computer was bought yesterday when my 5 year old (to the day!) dropped dead. (At least I can salvage some parts...)-x16wda (November 25, 2012, 09:42 AM)
...
1) 'Domestic' desktop and laptop computers will have become much more marginalised than they are now and so will be less interest to their bottom line. If things continue the way they are now most 'consumer' level users will have shifted to tablets in 3 years time and that is where MS's focus market will be - with the lock-in store and data model.
2) ("Maybe" - added by me) Business users will start to see things the MS way. Personally I have my doubts on this and I can see a lot of businesses still using XP and 7 and not making the move.
