*How* old is Windows? And they *still* can't get trivial shit like this working reliably?
Precisely.
Yeah, cos no one ever has random obscure problems with with other operating systems.
Mine (Win7) has just done the usual fortnightly update, and the 'volume icon'- a loudspeaker - is still there and still works.
Thank you for that.
If my error was the use of "proselyter" as a noun you may wish also to inform the OED of their mistake in listing:
"proselyter n. a person who makes, or seeks to make, proselytes."
together with their several quotations spanning 1689 to 1984.
If my error was one of style - eg in failing to use the verb "proselyte" transitively or in using "Linux" as a noun adjunct to proselyter, then I apologise for any offence caused.
Accepted.
This lot will know. alt.windows7.general It's a very posh group and will not tolerate pikeys.
I;m not asserting it's ok for it to happen, I'm just saying that all OS's can be subject to obscure happenings.
Repeating a fallacy does not make it any less fallacious.
You are very welcome. I like to keep alive the old tradition of the English apologising when they have done nothing wrong.
It's the questions and problems that come up that bemuse me.
Fair point. And I certainly did not mean to imply you were one of the proselyters who give me the urge to hide behind the sofa and pretend no one is at home :)
It comes with more than Linux does, a Linux kernel is useless without the other none Linux stuff that is installed.
Windows can also run most of the free stuff that people *have* to install to use Linux and that's also free on windows.
The people that have trouble with windows would have just as much trouble with Linux and they wouldn't have a next door neighbour that knew how to help.
Its on my win8.1, not that I use it, its only a substitute for regedit32.
Other than failing to attribute their Usenet postings. Apart from your original fallacy, that is.
Not only the "tu quoque" fallacy but "jumping to conclusions" *and* "straw man" as well.
Are you working your way through a list?
I don't have said triangle, but if I right click the taskbar, the properties I can access customise. Alas Show icon and notification does nothing :-(
Very true. What is strange is when anyone asks a question here about Windows, you always get a chorus of 'should be using Linux.
Doesn't help - and doesn't really happen with anything else.
Apart from religion and politics, of course. ;-)
Pity.
Have you had a look to see if Control Panel -> All Control Panel Items
-> Notification Area Items exists? You'll need the detailed Category view of Control Panel rather than the Icon view to find it more easily. Or just search from within Control Panel.
