[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="70" id="3849144"] I'd question whether W11 is HIPAA compliant...it has at least as many holes as a Swiss cheese...after all, MS's OS's are being security patched all the time. I never looked into it, but there are probably more HIPAA compliant OSs than MS's, although I could be wrong about that. [/quote] Technically, that question has not been answered, but our long-trusted tech support guy insists we not allow Win11 upgrades on any of our network

Using 0patch is well & good for personal/individual situations but it gets a little hairier when part of a corporate environment requiring adherence to certain security standards. At present, for instance, if an application or OS is not HIPAA compliant and is used for medical applications, the user could be subject to major fines and exclusion from participation in Medicare. Once MS stops officially providing security updates (OS is at EOL), it is no longer HIPAA compliant and

Start11 is great for Windows10. Highly recommended. For many reasons expounded in other threads on the topic, I plan to avoid Windows11 at all cost.

Hopefully, yours will be as mild as mine was. And Terry's, too. Appears it's only a matter of time until most/all of us acquire it. Pretty sure I got mine while faithfully N95 masking at a concert (1st in 2 years).

Maybe they revive "Clippy" since getting clipped is what 11 is all about.

Check that - he's just been appointed to the Board. This should be quite interesting. Buckle up.

If I understand correctly, Musk's stake is passive, comes with no influence or decision-making power. Influence it, he will, however, even if indirectly.

I've been using Stardock products since 2001 & love 'em but their versioning practices have been weird & unnecessarily confusing from the gitgo.

Anyone calling themselves an environmentalist, or who believes CO2 is killing the plan(e)t, should be advocating for as much nuclear power as possible. And pretty much everyone else, for that matter.

I have received a fair amount of entertainment value from following certain Twitter accounts but have never had an account myself. With those limited exceptions, it's pretty much a load of garbage.

chunkyll - I don't believe betas are available as trials. Usually available only to owners of release versions of standalone apps and/or the Object Desktop suite.

Looks like my tech guy was right. Should rename it MSBook. Or maybe ButtBook, since that's where MS is shoving everything.

Reply to IP and Microsoft 365 in OS Customization JoeUser Forums

By jove, I think you are correct, Doc. Initially, the change icon dialog wouldn't open for any desktop icons but after the reinstall, it is opening normally for non-MS365 icons. Maybe SD can work their magic & get past the block, cause the 365 icons suck and the document icons are almost blinding in Dark Mode and list view which is of course what I deal with all day. (One can hope, right?) Hope all is well with you, Sir.

Took a flyer and tried a standard uninstall, reboot, reinstall, but dialog still fails to appear. IP applies packages normally, just can't change icons individually. Interestingly, it remembered on reinstall the previously chosen individual non-default icons, except for the MS 365 related icons.

For further clarification, here is the dialog that fails to appear (from a different rig without 365):

Got this error attempting to run the bat file as administrator: Do I need to run IP & revert to all default icons before the purge? Do I need to do a standard uninstall first? Thx.

Reply to IP and Microsoft 365 in OS Customization JoeUser Forums

This is the Right Click (Context) Menu in question. Clicking Change Icon no longer brings up the IP change icon dialog. Looked the same prior to installing MS 365.

Desktop icons or in Explorer.

Sorry, should have included this with the post. Win10 Pro 21H1 19043.1466 IP 10.03 Issue is with right-click on an icon, then selecting "Change Icon" - nothing happens now, whereas it was working normally prior to installing Microsoft 365. Thanks.
