    Question File wont open, now has "\\?\UNC" before the actual path address - What is "\\?\UNC" and how do I remove it?

    Really I just need to change the file path to delete the "\\?\UNC", not sure how to do that when I can see the file in the right location that does not have "\\?\UNC"

    Question File wont open, now has "\\?\UNC" before the actual path address - What is "\\?\UNC" and how do I remove it?

    Hi I was moving several files around this morning, copy paste, vs move, and I did it a few times, move paste because I did not want to copy it into the new folder, I wanted it moved. So I must have confused something and broke it, because now my file has this path and wont open...

    Question How can make data on a hard drive not recoverable in order to sell?

    I have several used HD I want to sell, but I want to format them in such away that they are still usable but the data is completely gone. I thought that formatting and de-selecting "quick format" so it takes a very long time to format, might be an option. But I really do not know. Anyone know...

    Question 4 Port cat 6 USB Extender Not working, light is "sleeping?" diming and brightening, but nothing works connected to the extender.

    Hi, I have had two of these extenders not work after some time (several months), light dims and brightens, "sleeps" but it does not work... Has nothing to do with the PC going to sleep, in fact the one I am writing this about, went to sleep when I had it in my hands, the PC was not asleep...

    [SOLVED] I have two Windows 10 machines. One acts as a server and the other is the laptop, but the laptop can't see the server anymore ?

    What I am trying to do is establish my old homegroup. I know this setting went away, but I was able to set it up via network sharing. Well for some reason my laptop can't see my PC that has all my files on it. It was working before, but then it went into offline mode. So I disabled offline...

    [SOLVED] Which processor architecture is faster: i7-9850H w/ 16GB RAM w/ Nvidia MX150 graphics OR i7-10850H w/ 32GB RAM w/ onboard graphics

    Thanks Kona, so now we are looking at $100 difference, plus option 2 came with a new docking station which is $50 or so used. So now, really, $50 more for option 2 if I buy the RAM, but with a shorter warranty and no graphics card, but returns accepted

    [SOLVED] Which processor architecture is faster: i7-9850H w/ 16GB RAM w/ Nvidia MX150 graphics OR i7-10850H w/ 32GB RAM w/ onboard graphics

    Yes, that is possible, I would have to buy it myself at $150. I actually already have Option 2 sitting in a box unopened, was delivered yesterday. I saw option 1 on Friday. Option 2 is a much more reputable company on ebay 5000 star seller 100%, returns accepted. Option one is just a 50 item...

    Ok, thank you, now the other half of the equation. Option 1: i7-9850H w/ 16GB RAM single channel and Nvidia MX150 graphics - $1000 + 4 year Dell warranty Option 2: i7-10850H w/ 32GB RAM dual channel and onboard graphics - $1250 + 2.5 year Dell warranty
