17 Φεβρουαρίου 21 02:31 πμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   
I recently had an issue with an older Windows Server 2008 R2 server that couldn’t logout which had resulted to Remote Desktop not connecting to it anymore (not even with the “admin session” option). Luckily I had an admin go and physically cycle its power since it was a physial one without any lower level […]

HowTo: install multiple Corel Painter brushpacks silently
22 Ιανουαρίου 21 11:11 πμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   
I got a nice expression software charity bundle with Corel Painter 2020 (current version is 2021) and a bunch of brushes in it and then noticed that the brush packs where available for download as separate installers than the Painter software. So I launched one of the brush pack installers from the command-line (can give […]

HowTo: Use DISM and SFC tools to check+fix your Windows installation
14 Απριλίου 20 10:28 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   
If you’re having issues with your Windows 7 or newer, you should consider whether its installation has become corrupted (due to malicious software or hard drive errors). After doing a disk check (say by right clicking the appropriate drive under my computer and selecting Properties, then Tools tab and Error checking) and a complete virus […]

HowTo: Fix DVD/CD with Live filesystem (Packet/UDF) on Windows
10 Οκτωβρίου 18 09:33 πμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   
The other day I found how easy it is to use a Live CD/DVD (where packet writing occurs when adding stuff) instead of a Mastered one (where all is kept to be written when you close the disk) on Windows. It feels more like using a USB flash disk and should be more safe regarding […]

Trovigo.com is an unwanted search engine hijacker that renders Internet Options of Windows / Internet Explorer inaccessible. To restore them on an older Windows XP installation, one way that I’ve found to work is to update Internet Explorer to a newer version, aka IE 8 (say via the embedded Windows Update facility or Microsoft Update […]

HowTo: Drop files onto Silverlight controls
27 Μαρτίου 14 05:14 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   
I was recently adding drop-files support to ClipFlair Studio, so I had to do some research on the related API that is available to Silverlight apps. Silverlight supports a limited set of Drag-and-Drop interaction with the operating system (supposedly for security reasons, but most probably because of the classic cross-platform implementation pains). For example it […]

HowTo: Remove Skype from Windows taskbar, keep as Taskbar tray icon
25 Νοεμβρίου 12 10:42 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   
An annoying feature of Skype of recent Skype versions is that by default it shows an icon on the Windows taskbar apart from the one at the taskbar tray while you’re signed in. This also means it shows in the ALT+TAB key sequence when switching between open windows, which you might not always want to [...]
