• Defrag: IE History, Removing Rip from WMP, Secure PC Thumbdrive

  Sep 07, 2011 at 3:52 PM

  Hi Gov and Larry,

  Thanks for the tips. They didn't quite solve my problem so I figured I'd give online search another try and found that if I delete the History files found at C:\Users\Kamal\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\History (I had to go into the "Folder and search options" and uncheck the box to "Hide protected operating system files") , that it solved the problem, at least for now.

  Sharing the info in case it helps someone else.

• A Quick Look At "Windows 8"

  MS, please make sure that developers are able to use C# to make tile apps. C# is what got me into programming. I am not a professional developer by any means but I like being able to create my own applications using tools and languages that do not get in the way of a developer's vision. I have used javascript/HTML and if that is all that was available when I started programming I would have quit after two weeks. I look at HTML 5 and the amount of code that needs to be written to do the simplest things... well, they just cannot replace Silverlight user controls.

  Thanks for brining the Async love to the Express editions! I will be putting it to good use as soon as MIX is over. Pretty excited!

  Is it possible to make the text portion of the tutorials available as a downloadable XPS/PDF ebook?  It would be helpful since I do not have internent access at home and can't really spend work (non-programming) time on it during the day.

  No Async love for Express editions? I tried installing the CTP (I have Visual Studio Web Developer and C# Express installed) but could not located the Async DLLs after.

  I would be happy just to be able to dump my bandwidth quota counting, slow satellite internet to a more consistent 6mbps that I had at my previous house.

  Am downloading video now. It is labeled as Episode 1. Does this mean that this will be a regular series? If yes, YAY!
