Whenever I “double click” on an Excel file and another Excel file is open, the newly opened file automatically opens in the same application window as the previously opened Excel file. This isn’t limited to just Excel, as I’ve seen Word do this as well. This poses a problem when wanting to compare documents side…
I use a batch file to start up a few of the programs I need running in the background. Up until now, I had used the pause command to execute it after some of the other start-ups finished. I would prefer to use the wait or sleep commands but they do not appear to be…
How do I open a remote desktop session on a secondary monitor (in full-screen)? It always seems to want to open on the primary one and I cannot find a switch which lets me choose. Is there a known solution or workaround for this? Solution: I don’t know if this helps, but in my experience,…
I want to record a sound that comes from a program in my computer, directly from my sound card, not using a crappy microphone to record it! I was able to do this easily on Windows XP by choosing “what u hear” (yes, it really had “u” in it!) device from the recording options. But on…

My school is trying to provide HTML5 video to students. The computers are locked down so that nothing can be done except Internet Explorer 9, and even Internet Explorer 9 is locked down with a proxy. These are computers that we can do anything to to lock them down, so this isn’t just a JavaScript…
I’m suffering from the dreaded Radeon mouse cursor corruption. The problem is intermittent and can be “solved” by putting the computer to sleep or restarting it. I hope simply restarting the graphics drivers will remove the symptoms of the problem. This question would seem to indicate that restarting the graphics drivers is possible in Windows…

On my old XP machine I would simply copy shortcuts into the %userprofile%SendTo folder. On Windows-7 this folder is hidden, and I don’t have access to it (which surprised me, it is my SendTo folder after all). Is there an “approved” way of adding to my Send To menu that I’m unaware of? Or do…
