As a short-term alternative, you could set the ini file to read-only... though that would probably result in errormessages when someone tries to change settings :huh:

Screenshot Captor / Re: Scroll capture - Errors and Home button
« Last post by Ath on April 16, 2018, 12:53 PM »
A 32 bit application, like Screenshot Captor, can allocate a max of about 1.5GB memory, so setting it to 12GB isn't probably gonna help much...
(unless, ofcourse, mouser added memory handling for > 2GB per process)

A simple google query found a lot of results, I'd try these suggestions: https://windowsrepor...nder-software-tools/

IMHO, no need to 'invent' another popup reminder tool.

They need to strip out all the irrelevant characters before checking, both from the input address and their lookup lists.

AFAIK, that's only applicable for @gmail.* and gmail provided (undetectable as they can have any domain name, I presume) e-mail addresses, and not for 'regular' e-mail providers :huh:, unless you know of other e-mail providers that follow the same policy/structure?

BTW, when replying using either Quick-Reply or Quote, neither appears to offer a means of attaching an image (or other file). I had to use Reply, which doesn't include quotes.  Is that by design?

You can use Quote first, then click Preview to further edit your reply and add attachments as desired.

Well, I don't use XP any longer, so no clue, but you can use NirSoft's wmi view tool to try and find another, similar, attribute that works with XP. Also check the query using Win32_PerfRawData_PerfProc_Process instead of Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfProc_Process, maybe that does hold data?

ProcessTamer / Re: Subfunction from Process Tamer
« Last post by Ath on April 02, 2018, 04:07 AM »
Just to get you started, have a look at these pages:
AHK fetches stuff from WMI : Autohotkey forum
Query WMI for process attributes: Microsoft Social forum (Check the answer)

You'll have to call that repeatedly (few times per second ? ), so you'd probably best limit the 'select *' to something like 'select PercentProcessorTime from Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfProc_Process where Name=<yourprocessname>'
('where' clause does support Name like 'firefox%' etc.)

Use NirSoft's Simple WMI View to determine the Name (or IDProcess) used by your process, and desired attributes to form a comma-separated list instead of just PercentProcessorTime (and improve response time).
NB: Using WMI from AHK through COM will perform (much) better than exporting to text file from SimpleWMIView and processing that text file...

Edit:
Use WMI Explorer (Free for non-commercial use) to test your queries.

Edit 2:
WMI Explorer with this query:
[Select]
select Name,PercentProcessorTime ,IDProcess,ElapsedTime,VirtualBytes,WorkingSet from Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfProc_Process where Name like '%firefox%'

What about the bottom? That could have a nice/fun design for an extra treat to those who pick up the coin+Cody and take a look at the underside.

« Last post by Ath on March 17, 2018, 07:36 AM »
Did you read the 'crippleware' notice after 10 day of use for the free version? It'll significantly slowdown in transferspeed. But I guess it'll still be usable for your occasional use, or you could buy a license. It is quit generous that the free version keeps working, albeit a tad slower.

Is that a one-time task or repetitive?

Edit: Try this http://www.paragon-d...s.com/extfs-windows/
As advertised it allows full access to a Linux-formatted (thumb-)drive from Windows.
Disclaimer: No connections to the product or manufacturer and haven't tried it (yet).

I was thinking of Stick a Note by our member anandcoral, with a small note window showing the desired label (not a jpg though). It has some restrictions I just filed feature requests for.

N.A.N.Y. 2018 / Re: NANY 2018 Release: Stick A Note (Enhancement)
« Last post by Ath on March 10, 2018, 03:13 AM »
Anand,
After using SaN lightly and evaluating it for a while, I have a few feature requests:

  • Note window smaller than the current minimum of 200x200, 50x50 or even less would be nice (I understand you need some space for the edit, settings and X links/buttons, but shortening to a single letter and adding a tooltip would help achieve that)
  • Change text size, it's no problem for me if all text is set to that size, rtf-capability would be nice and also handle the next request
  • Text color changeable, like change text size, no problem for me if all text is set to that color
  • Optional transparent background, so the content behind the note is, at least partially, visible, now it is often blocking important content or UI features (buttons) of websites, and after hiding it I often forget to show it again
  • Configurable display-location, so it can be moved to a less-important-content corner

I hope you can realize some of this before next NANY... ;D

TIA!

Living Room / Re: Problem installing Screenshot Captor,4.27.3
« Last post by Ath on February 26, 2018, 02:08 PM »
Did you receive any message during your attempts to install? It would be really informative to post any messages that are blocking your update here.

You can, as the installer suggests, disable your Antivirus and try to install the update. I've just installed it here without issues, but I'm on Avast (free) antivirus. I've fulminated on the generally poor behavior of AVG in the past, and won't repeat that here, but my best suggestion would be to switch to a different antivirus solution.

Screenshot Captor / Re: Startup win10
« Last post by Ath on February 18, 2018, 03:15 PM »
Personally, I suspect that to be a Win 10 FCU issue/bug. I've had trouble with several programs not autostarting, depending on the day of the week, the updates installed, the number of reboots and probably the temperature of my morning-tea. Currently all is fine, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for after the next updates :tellme:
Oh, and Screenshot Captor always starts fine, it's Skype for business (MS) and/or MS Outlook that's acting up...
