Edit: okay I got it, apparently what this does is it switches between the last two themes that you use so I just have to make sure that I'm using my dark theme and then the only than the next one that I use is the high contrast white paint and that it'll switch between them as needed thank you

Sorry, When I said that I am printing a document in Internet Explorer, it's a document to me as it is our accounting reports, however yes truly it is just a webpage being displayed in Internet Explorer of our accounting report. I have the Brother MFC-J6710 DW printer and it has no option to...

Hi, I'm having to use a dark high contrast theme because when I look at normally it makes my eyes want to burn and I don't mean that sarcastically I mean that seriously my eyes start feeling like their burning when I'm staring at a screen that is so bright. So I've used the Microsoft high...

I've got window blinds eight and skin studio, but I seem to remember that there's a problem with window blinds eight can't remember exactly what it is at this point but I remember I had to uninstall it because of it being, then I reinstalled it again when you suggested it since you have to have...

Actually yes I did replace the system files, but then when I rebooted the computer and try to login the user account services was corrupt and wouldn't let me login to Windows 8. I followed the instructions found on this form as to how to go about deleting a corrupt account since there was only...

I'm using the Asus G74 laptop with the 1600 x 900 display and my second monitor as a display of 19 20 x 10 80 and there is no degradation of performance. The GPU chip inside of this laptop is the Nvidia 560 M I've run dual monitors for quite a few years now and never have I had a degradation...

Dark theme for Windows 8? Hi, I hope this is the correct area to ask this question I felt a kind of falls into tweaking or optimization. I need some kind of a Windows 8 theme that is on the dark/black side. But it's also got to actually work as close to 100% as possible. I've got one...

Yeah looks great on a new computer that doesn't have many programs yet installed but just as bad on a computer that's been used for a while and has a lot of programs. It's just a plain bad system that MS came up with for displaying all apps, they should have kept an optional win 7 style start...

Disregard message below, think I figured it out to be that there was a piece of paper sitting on the laptop finger pad and a light breeze from the ceiling fan must have been making it occasionally touch the pad, once I moved the paper off the pad the mouse cursor because solid as a rock again...

That's what I did before starting this topic. There doesn't seem to be a specific listing for printer apps or system apps in the notifications so I disabled all of them for a period of 3 hours but it doesn't seem to disable the one notification that I'm getting about the ink being low. Perhaps...

Hi, Could somebody tell me how to disable those messages that slide out from the upper right corner of the screen please. I've tried disabling notifications for 3 hours but it doesn't disable the notification that pops out every time that I go to print a document. It's basically warning me...

Update: Found instructions how to do this and get it to work at: Add Scan With Windows Defender To Context Menu In Windows 8 For anybody else interested make sure to scroll to the bottom of the page and read what one of the people wrote at the bottom in the comments section. The part about the...

Thanks, when I add that to my registry and try to scan a folder I get the error: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." Edit, I finally got it to get past the error I listed above however instead of opening...

Hi, In Windows 7 I used to be able to right click on a file and one of my choices was to scan with Microsoft security essentials, but that's no longer in my right click menu. How do I go about doing a manual scan on just one file using Microsoft's (I guess it's now Defender) Security Essentials...

Okay, so if I have this correct, I have to make I.E. default browser again to get this to work? If so I guess I'll just do without it, I like having Chrome at my Internet disposal when ever I want to go to the Internet. Thanks though for the info.

So why doesn't the I.E. 10 app version open when I click on my I.E. icon that was on my metro screen from Win 8 installation?

Hi, I was watching videos on the Microsoft I.E. website and notice that when they click on the app icon on the metro desktop, it opens something different than what happens on my computer. On there's it seems to open full screen and the URL bar is at the bottom, mine looks just like I.E. 9...

Now that *IS* truly handy. I don't generally like having to type when I'm searching for something, I'm old school, I'd rather browse in file manager than have to type, in general because I know where everything is on my computer, but this tip truly IS handy for Win 8 and when I can only...

If I came across as looking like I was saying that it makes Windows unusable that is not my intention. It's a frustration to me to not be able to simply press a button to close an app like I've been doing since Windows 3.1 And it's really an unnecessary frustration imposed upon me by Microsoft...

Everything with the exception of the most simple of them all... A simple Close or "X" button for a simple one click close or exit option. In my case this is not evolution in the O.S. it's a step back removing something as simple as a close button on the apps themselves. Truly, I guess what...
