    Question Unminimize multiple Paint windows at once that were individually minimized, in Windows 10

    I work in large quantities of MS Paint windows at once. I will usually open fifty at the same time. As I do my thing I minimize the windows one by one, then when I'm done with that task I need to click on each button on the start bar to access the them again, to move onto the next task. I'm...

    [SOLVED] 120mm case fan sounds like a hdd ticking

    To this I agree. No need to have WD-40 in my case at all, in any capacity. My first step was to take the box outside and give it a good cleaning. Vacuum, compressed air, then q-tips and cloth with isopropyl. The fan, and just about everything else, looks almost as good as new. The case hasn't...

    [SOLVED] 120mm case fan sounds like a hdd ticking

    My intake fan is 120mm and sounds EXACTLY like a hard drive ticking. It's not loud but I've been building pc's since 1993 so I hear it... Is there any kind of fix for this, or is it just a replacement? Cooler Master A12025-12CB-3EN-F1 DF1202512SELN and has stamped in red 2013-05-08

    I've been looking since AUGUST of last year. I don't know what search terms you used, but I have never seen that. I sent them an inquiry. Thanks so much!

    Looking for a clamp-to-desk mount with magnet-to-phone gooseneck arm

    Happy new year folks :) I've been looking for something like this for a while and have come up with nothing. I'm at the point where I think I have to buy two items and jerryrig them together to get what I want. What I need is a gooseneck arm for my phone on my desk. The phone needs to be held...

    [SOLVED] Samsung Galaxy S8+, cannot delete thumbnails that don't exist but I can still see

    I called Samsung customer service. We went through a number of basic steps, then the rep had an idea. He had me add external storage (either sd card or OTG, didn't matter) and moved the thumbnails to the storage, which I did. Then, when I deleted THOSE pictures, the thumbnails on the phone...

    [SOLVED] Samsung Galaxy S8+, cannot delete thumbnails that don't exist but I can still see

    Plugging it into my Windows 10 Pro computer shows that there's no DCIM folder. Taking a photo immediately creates a DCIM folder with the picture in it, but nothing I can do, either on the phone or via computer, can delete the folder of thumbnails that the phone thinks is there.

    [SOLVED] Samsung Galaxy S8+, cannot delete thumbnails that don't exist but I can still see

    My S8+ is running android 9. I have no pictures on the phone. In fact, I've deleted the entire DCIM folder. I've optimized storage, I've deleted the Gallery data and cache, I've rebooted. I've shut the phone down and booted into android recovery and wiped the cache partition. All that and I...

    [SOLVED] Trying to run Helium on old tablet, android 4.4.2. Tablet cannot find app.

    I haven't used Titanium in like over a decade. I emailed them some questions. With Titanium rooting is necessary on the backup device and I don't know if it's necessary on the restore device.

    Regarding specs, you should forgive me. It's been literally years since I've delved into this sort of thing. Is this what you're looking for? Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.17763 Build 17763 Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4570 CPU @ 3.20GHz, 3201 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 4 Logical...

    [SOLVED] Trying to run Helium on old tablet, android 4.4.2. Tablet cannot find app.

    All the backup apps that I've tried on the 4.4.2 in the last few days do not backup the data with the app.

    Question Weird video issue. Images within videos momentarily black when starting new video.

    On my Windows 10 Pro computer, sometimes, when I start a new video, whether on facebook, youtube, or a file on my hard drive, when the video starts the images inside the video are almost all black. Now I do not mean it is a black screen. I mean that you can see that movement is happening, and...
