Using Reliability Monitor, a tool the the boys of Redmond hid in Vista
One of my pet peeves is Microsoft treats ALL it's customers as blithering idiots and in effect tries to protect users from themselves by hiding built-in features that can be useful in troubleshooting. I hate that! I've mentioned Task Manager and Resource Monitor many times in various threads from which you can learn a lot of what Vista is doing behind the scenes. Did you know you can go a...

Looking for function to resolve VirtualStore paths to physical paths
I'm working on ensuring compatibility with some legacy applications. I need an API function that maps a (possibly virtual) path into a physical path. For example, c:\program files\foo\download ---> c:\users\myusername\appdata\local \virtualstore\program files\foo\download Does Vista provide an API for retreiving these mappings?

Import Into Windows Mail
In trying to fix up my completely screwed Windows Mail install, I've tried Exporting, then Reimporting messages. I can't seem to import a nice, clean copy of the messages and directory structure; it only wants to import a complete Export. Which has dozens of Recovered folders and IMHO is severely messed up.
