About XPs registry
In all fairness to the readers here, it's probably a good time now to

who say to never, ever use a registry cleaner and promise the readers
that it WILL, not might, create problems for them.
ANY application will, over time, create some sort of a pr...

Desktop, Taskbar and Start Button
No matter which side of the desktop I move my taskbar to it stays sideways so
everything reads bottom to top instead of side to side and the icons are
sideways also. I have two games that open up from top to bottom but
everything else is side to side. It happened yesterday when my son quit his
game (NEXXON Maplestory) so I looked up a few things like dragging the

files open slowly
I have two computers with Windows XP Home and Professional connected via
router in a network. Everything seems all right when both of them are in
some work. But if one of them is switched off or hibernated it takes about
30 seconds or even more to open a file on the working computer. There is no
difference on type of the file or if I use a mouse or don't. If anybody has

Reliability of files copied via Windows Explorer

Is there anything in Windows Explorer (a protocol maybe?) that ensures
that the files do not get corrupted during the transfer?
An alternative would be for me ...

4 Myths of Registry Cleaning
Since there seems to be a healthy interest in the registry lately, I
though I'd offer this partial from a white paper I have. It's not new,
but it's still accurate and well worded, IMO. Applicable to all windows
except not sure of Vista or version 7 & 8, which seem to be just more
Vista.

system restore.

Dear Basics Expert,
Suppose I am on the Internet and want to look at some old E-mail
already on Outlook Express. Is there a way to click-open the Outlook
Express (via its icon) WITHOUT Outlook Express starting to download
new E-mails?
Yours Thankfully,
