Another little program which has proven to be a lot more valuable than its cost. Which is free, by the way, is Belarc Advisor . I know many use this fine tool already. But, there may be those on the list who haven't heard of it. It tells the computer user all the computer statistics of which he may not be aware. "Belarc Advisor builds a detailed profile of your installed software and hardware, network inventory, missing Microsoft hotfixes, anti-virus status, security benchmarks, and displays the results in your Web browser. All of your PC profile information is kept private on your PC and is not sent to any web server." http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html ----- Original Message ----- From: Angel To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, February 08, 2016 3:02 PM Subject: If you want to use Power Menu on later operating systems. I find "Power Menu to be most valuable, and wouldn't be without it . If you all wish to use it on your later operating systems, here is some information concerning how this might be accomplished. "August 15, 2015 at 01:48 I finally found a workaround for UAC blocking powermenu in Win 8, 8.1, and now Win 10.. Works perfectly. You need a tool called UAC Trust Shortcut. Get it from this site> http://www.itknowledge24.com/ 32 bit or 64 bit depending on your operating system type. then simply create a new shortcut with full permissions for said program. If you are looking for the startup directory.. MS moved it to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu. UAC Trust Shortcut makes new shortcuts on the desktop. So if you need Powermenu in your startup menu.. just move ti there and POOF!!! it wirks again after you reboot and accept the UAC Trust Shortcut service.. How wonderful.. and always remember folks.. heh.. Google is your friend.. * chuckles again * PowerMenu 1.51PowerMenu is a tiny but powerful application I wrote back in 1998 that adds "Always On Top", "Transparency" and "Minimize To Tray" to the windows control menu. PowerMenu is free.

He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, "Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well". Martin Luther King, Jr.
