Reply to All My Programs Are Asking For Activation in Object Desktop JoeUser Forums

Neil is a Stardock software developer who primarily works on Windowblinds. He contributes generously to these forums when he spots things he can help with, but fixing technical issues with activation would normally fall to Stardock Support. The activation code is permanent and activation should always survive a reboot. If the WB10/SKS8 advice fails to get it fixed, SD will get you squared away but it will help them to submit a support ticket so they can sort out your specific is

Lots of deflection, unintended irony and personal attack from TYT, as expected, but as to the fundamental point about the 'masked agitators' we apparently agree - those weren't students. Or 'protesters' for that matter. They were paid rioters, thugs. That they were coming was known beforehand. Whether the student protesters (and there were some) wanted the violence to occur or not, there are groups pushing protests against speakers they don't

"Someone with the 'inability to listen to alternative views and function in the real world'" is practically the definition of a progressive these days. If you think those were just random children whose 'protective bubble of safe spaces' was punctured, I've got a bridge here... So far, only progressive 'subgroups' have acted out in 'fascist' ways. And, given their funding, I question how 'sub' they are.

Don't now who she is (apparently from Arizona, my state), but she seems fun. Backing up a little: Brendan O’Neill on Facebook: “I wonder if those arguing that America has gone fascist and Islamophobia is rampant and Trump is an illegitimate president who should not be indulged by other world leaders realise[sic] how much they are confirming Trump voters&r

[quote who="Borg999" reply="32" id="3665187"] I reiterate my claim of Gestapo tactics. [/quote] Get back to us when you learn/understand the definitions of Gestapo & Fascist and can explain how the article you linked pertains to either. Aside from the use of the words.

Reply to Insecure Adobe Acrobat extension silently installed on Chrome in Personal Computing JoeUser Forums

[quote who="alaknebs" reply="6" id="3664585"] no idea why anyone needs acrobat readers these days.. [/quote] Depends. Reader DC is much more than a 'reader' these days, thanks to the highly useful editing functions now built in, particularly the 'Fill & Sign' feature. I use it every day in the course of my work. Can't do most of what Acrobat can do, but I now need to resort to Acrobat infrequently. Very useful in handling p

Reply to Women Marching in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Things go off the rails when self-interest is equated with selfishness (in the mean-spirited sense). Selfishness is often counter to self-interest, as manifestly demonstrated in the so-called Women's March.

Reply to Trump Inauguration Coming Up in Current Events JoeUser Forums

I was 'naive enough' to think a second rate Harvard-educated 'Constitutional Scholar' about whom we knew virtually nothing might actually pay attention to the document on which he claimed to be an expert and which he took a solemn oath to defend. Twice. We'll see how naive we are about Trump.

Reply to Didn't even realise this was a subscription based service... in Object Desktop JoeUser Forums

There are no 'security' updates to Stardock apps as they pose no security risk to the OS. The release products are by definition stable for the OS intended. The only scenario in which they could become 'unstable' would be when the following are true: The subscription for the SD app has expired. MS makes an unanticipated change to the OS that affects the usability of the SD app. Stardock are good, but they are not the Oracle
