    Built-in Administrator Account - Enable or Disable in Windows 8

    OK, thanks for the clarification, but I imagine that if the 'normal' administrative account cannot log in to Windows, it will not be possible to boot to a command prompt with that same ID and password either? In other words: it's best to activate that administer account before any problems with...

    Built-in Administrator Account - Enable or Disable in Windows 8

    OPTION TWO To Enable or Disable Built-in Administrator in Command Prompt at Boot NOTE: This option is great for when you are unable to sign in to Windows 8. I was wondering, in case I won't be able to sign in into Win8 at some time, if one follows this, how do you know the password of the...

    Solved Problem with File History

    @mikiep: thank you for your reaction and confirming it should work on internal HDs too. In the mean time I have spent some hours experimenting and I think I have it all working now, although differently from my initial set-up. Hopefully to help others in the future having similar problems...

    Solved Problem with File History

    Some of you may recall that I have problems with Windows 7 File Recovery creating multiple system images although I had plenty of free space on my internal drive D:. Yesterday, however, I noticed that File History stopped making backups (also on D: on March 22. The Event Viewer displays the...

    Three minor issues w/ Windows 8

    @topgundcp Thanks a lot! 1) Indeed, that's it! Strange that so many people are complaining it's not possible to boot to the desktop... ;) 2) I'm going to try that. The first value was 7, now changed to 3. The second was already 20000. I'll report back if the 'problem' disappears. 3) I no...

    Just to report back: I haven't been able to get multiple images, even though there's enough space available.

    Three minor issues w/ Windows 8

    Besides the problems with not getting multiple system images, as reported elsewhere on this forum and the issue with Task Manager not showing changing CPU frequency when Hyper-V is enabled, I have 3 minor issues with my Win 8 installation: 1) After logging in the Start Screen disappears...

    Hyper-V Remote File Browser Shortcut - Create

    Thanks for the addition but I'm afraid I still only get what you showed in your first screen shot: In other words: an empty screen. I just started experimenting with Hyper-V so maybe I'll find out anyway. ;) Off-topic: I noticed that the CPU frequency displayed in Task Manager stays fixed...

    Corporate (Exchange) email account in Mail app

    When I create a corporate email account in the Mail app I see the message: "To sync a.b@c.com , you'll need to change this PC's settings to match the mail server's security policy. See how." When I click 'See how' the following message comes up: Does anyone know exactly what these security...

    System Image - Create in Windows 8

    There are two more things I would like to try before I go the renaming route. Although very unlikely, it is possible that Backup only checkes the available space at the moment the backup schedule is created, and not when a certain daily backup actually takes place. Thus, Backup could be...

    System Image - Create in Windows 8

    Yes, it's still set at 20% (558.88 GB) on D: I'm still tweaking, installing and changing every day - in fact, that is why I want daily images, so I can easily go back one day, if necessary - so yes, there are certainly changes. Ok, I tried a manual system image. It already gives a warning (see...

    System Image - Create in Windows 8

    Yeah, I know. But the folders do exist, they are linked folders of Music and Photos from the HTPC Public Library, included in the Library of this computer. They are not backed up from this PC (logically) and although I would prefer to see a green bar instead of orange, the only other option...

    System Image - Create in Windows 8

    Hmm, tried it now for two daily backups but I am not sure it now works as advertised: The D:\[computername] folder contains all separate daily backups but as displayed above WindowsImageBackup contains only one image...

    System Image - Create in Windows 8

    I put it at 20%. At first I thought you were asking a strange question, because the System Protection in D: is switched off, as displayed in my previous post. Nevertheless I took a look: Quite a surprise: here's the 27.94 that we saw as the maximum for system images! That can't be...

    System Image - Create in Windows 8

    Thanks for your time Shawn! Here's DM: 1. No, I didn't, everything is still on C: 2. Yes, I did. The page file is 5,627,904 KB, hopefully never used with 16 GB of RAM. 3. No, not on D:, only on C: In addition to all that, I also moved C:'s FileHistory to D: - currently 1.52 GB.

    System Image - Create in Windows 8

    OK, that is clear but then please help me with this: My system disk C: is 238 GB (I deleted the hibernation file so now 54 GB is occupied and 184 GB is free) Please see next screen shot: A system image would then be 54 GB and worst-case 238 GB, correct? So suppose it is now 54 GB and...
