thanks for the info

This only happens using Edge in Win10, on my new Asus laptop.

No other PC has ever had this problem.

Everything else works fine.

I'll see if I can change the cursor design.

Thanks

For some odd reason, when using Gmail on my Asus Win10 laptop, I cannot see the cursor.

So I can't see where I am when writing emails.

This does not happen on any other device, using the Gmail webmail site. 

It happens after clean installing the OS, and I've done this several times.

Is this an Asus thing?


Thanks

I prefer Office 2003 but will upgrade, mostly for security purposes.

Particularly as I've worked out how to get the old CTL S, search function in Office 2016.

Thank you for the info

He is a mulit billionaire, the most powerful man in the world in charge of the worlds most powerful country.

You are an irrelevant nobody, hiding behind a fake name, on a Thai website, making childish insults to someone who has achieved things beyond your capabilitie.

I know who's more intelligent.

Luckily enough - found how to get back to the old search box

https://wordribbon.tips.net/T011389_Making_Ctrl_F_Work_Traditionally.html

In old Office, after searching for a word in a Word file, I could close the Search box using Alt F4, or another Key command easily

But in Office 0 and over, this does not work, I have to close the Search box manually, with the mouse.

Is there any key command that lets me do this.

Its really annoying having to use the mouse to close this every time I search for something on a document.

Thanks

Thanks for this but this problem happens after a clean install of the OS, but useful tool to have in future.

I'll do that, but it still happens after an OS clean install

thanks

OK thanks for this.

Its strange that office 2003 works with all Win10 PCs except on Asus laptop.

I like Word 2003, is simple and quick and works fine with all my Win10 PCs.

But one Asus laptop it won't work with, keeps stopping, then getting the message 

An error occurred and this feature is no longer functioning properly. Please run Setup and select Repair to restore this application.

I reinstall it but more problems, just stops working.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks

>Your deeply ingrained r@@ism just couldn't resist making a derogatory comment, could it? 

Oh dear Lord, always one idiot 

Usually use Zoom, which is an excellent stereo recorder for voice. 

Can I buy a high quality stereo mic for my phone that will produce good quality recordings, better than the inbuilt mic? Or is it limited.

I'm looking for a deeper sound, which the phone does not have.

thanks

I've been sharpening my rotary electric rasor with a glass mirror, it works well.

However, this site claims just using toothpaste is better https://www.instructables.com/id/Sharpening-Rotary-Razor-Blades-Safe-and-Simple-Met/

What have others found best to sharpen electric rasor blades?

Thanks

Thank you

The radiator got damaged and is now leaking water from one of the gills which was bent, and so is letting water out.

Is it possible to fix this gill, can it be tightened up, or does the whole radiator have to be replaced?

Thanks

That's good info KeeTua, I'll give it a go..

thanks

Yes OneMoreFarang, it really annoys me, I have tried since 1996 to explain to people to use the tab key, and the return key instead of using a mouse to click OK,  but the all ignore this advice (almost all women, well, in fact, 100% women).

I have given up.

Thanks KeeTua, I appreciate your suggestion.

Not like the annoying comments above yours.

I use MacroScheduler, but this only works on the F row keys with an F number function 

Can I use AutoHotKey to make Macros for any key on the F row, such as Print? 

Thanks

I like to make Macros that work on the F row, using software that lets me click on a key once.

Asus lets me do this as it has an F row reverse lock, that lets me lock the F row into locking the Fn key down, thus making the F numbers default.

Can I do this on any non-Asus products?

Or, is there an app that will allow me to make Macros for one key (Print, Pause, Scroll lock etc) without having to also use an Alt or other key?


Thanks

> I witnessed an Old Indian Lady the other day haggling the price  of a large amount of " Silk " products she was about to possibly buy from a Small Shopping Mall Stall.

The Thai store owner was really flustered, as this Old Lady was really aggressive in her manner.

I have seen this quite few times. Usually, well actually always women! An unpleasant woman arguing with a Thai over the price of sunglases in Pantip Plaza, he eventually told her to f-off, then gave me a 20Bt discount with a warm smile. 

Come back sexpats, all is forgiven!

You make it sound like they are in favour of these.

Good for Macron standing up to the Israeli goons too!

Damn those security people trying to keep him safe and doing their job!

Yes, its not all bad, I just don't like Search

Thanks for the info - I do miss the Win7 Start Menu, I think the Win10 is just trying to be too clever.

thanks

I like to change the settings on my folders in Win10, removing date, size etc.

But when I transfer folders, my settings disappear and I have to reset everything. 

Is there any way to keep these settings, when transferring folders, or make them default?

Thanks

thank you

I do like it, reminds me of the old Win7 search, which I preferred. 

Is there any way to set up a key command to access this search using keyboard keys - instead of having to click on it manually every time.

I think the Start menu is trying to be smart, but it won't find files unless they have been opened recently.

Very odd
