Reply to How to undo personalizing a tab accent color as the default for an application? in Groupy Stardock Forums

After further investigation, I have found that the "Quick access Accent colours" in the context menu do not work as expected. However, if you use "Pick Accent colour..." it does work as expected.

Open all the tabs you would like to save and group them as you like. The Groups should be saved on your bookmarks bar and persist opening and closing the browser window. Use the Group Selector (four boxes) to open the groups in any order you like.

DrJBHL has provided some great links above. I use both EaseUS Todo Backup and Acronis True Image, and can testify that they are both very good. The latest Acronis version also include antivirus. Not a big fan of Norton, but that's just my opinion. Good luck. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]

Reply to Software Needed Before Win10 Sunsets in Stardock Software Stardock Forums

You could clone your C: Drive and place it in the new computer, and then do an in place upgrade keeping apps and files intact. I believe there are also third party apps for moving to a new computer. I would recommend an internet search for "how to keep apps and files while moving to a new computer?"

Reply to Blurred edges in CursorFX Stardock Forums

Unfortunately, there seems to be a little blur around the edges which can be more obvious on some cursors. 1) Make sure you have the Mouse Pointer Size set to 1 in the Windows Accessibility Settings when using CursorFX, and adjust the size with the CursorFX settings. 2) Try disabling the Shadow and see if that helps.

Tweaks to drag & drop in Win10/Win11/App/Pro/Launcher menus to make creating folders easier and less like playing chase the item around Thank you for this. This has always been an issue for me. I still think an option to require holding the shift key would be helpful.
