    how does the MKLINK command work?

    yes i'd need to ask again. the scenario is clear if both directory A and B are local storage areas. My question assumes that Directory B is in Dropbox. When the physical storage (in A) is mirrored in B (as u claim, not physically stored in B), I can access it freely via the Dropbox servers...

    how does the MKLINK command work?

    with reference to this article: Sync Files and Folders Outside Your My Dropbox Folder i'm trying to backup files/databases which are always in sync - for example, my Evernote notebooks and my lightroom catalogs. as such, i'm trying to understand the mechanics of MKLINK here. Let's say...

    command line to activate focus on application on startup?

    the discussion is going way off-tangent right now. none of the responses match what i was trying to ask. let me try to explain again. typically, i have Chrome and many other background apps launching on startup. Note that Chrome is the only app that launches in the foreground + maximized...

    command line to activate focus on application on startup?

    again, that wasn't my question. i'm on win8.1 x64 using start8 (which means i launch directly to the desktop and i don't use Metro). this question is about the desktop. Hope it clarifies.

    command line to activate focus on application on startup?

    thanks, but that wasn't my question. my question wasn't about having Chrome boot on startup, it was about how to activate focus to Chrome (with 5-6 apps opening on startup at the same time) when everything is loaded and idle.

    command line to activate focus on application on startup?

    i have a variety of apps in the startup folder which is set to launch on startup. eventually, i'd like windows to focus on Chrome (specifically on the address bar) so that i can start using it right away. i remember there's a command which could be added to the shortcut properties but can't...

    After system sleeps and resumes >> runs for 2s >> turnsoff

    Hi, I'm not really sure how the WD software came about - the only WD software i downloaded was the diagnostic utility used to test whether my HDDs were in good condition, and it did pass the extended tests. where should i uninstall that SAM WDM driver then? as for the Razer drivers, i'm...

    how to stop irritating forced-delay of startup programs?

    i totally agree with your statement - especially "it's displaying the desktop a bit too fast", when it has not started loading any programs or none of the desktop functions have started working (e.g. clicking start button, launching a file = unresponsive), till after it has warmed up.

    how to stop irritating forced-delay of startup programs?

    hi guys, it's ironic that after upgrading from w7 x64 to w8 pro x64, my system boots slower than before (from start to finished loading all startup apps). i used Start8 + remove lock screen to skip directly to desktop. While i do reach the desktop pretty damn fast, it pauses there for 5...

    After system sleeps and resumes >> runs for 2s >> turnsoff

    ok, there's new development. when i tried installing new drivers for my Asus Xonar DG soundcard, it always hangs halfway when installing (right before it hanged, there was a brief prompt, seems to ask permission for digitally signed drivers but it was too fast for me to catch it). the same...

    After system sleeps and resumes >> runs for 2s >> turnsoff

    Hi, this is odd - because I really did reformat my Windows boot drive, aka the SSD which contained Daemon tools - hence it shouldn't appear again. i have also updated ssd firmware to latest version, all controllers to latest versions, ram @ default speed, checked integrity of SSDs and HDDs...

    After system sleeps and resumes >> runs for 2s >> turnsoff

    hi, i didn't have daemon tools installed before the problem occurred and it still happened. in any case i followed your instructions to clean it up, still the same issue. there's no memory.dmp file unfortunately :( any other clue?

    After system sleeps and resumes >> runs for 2s >> turnsoff

    hmm, at least that's not the case for mine. i tried running at default and OCed freq (1333 and 1600), no difference in results. btw : sorry for the messy chunk - i tried to space the text out, but it got stuck there. :/

    After system sleeps and resumes >> runs for 2s >> turnsoff

    i got this very weird problem and have been researching it for the longest time. i probably found the most relevant info on this forum, so i thought it might be worth a shot to ask here. it is very similar to the thread here ...
