A comment from William
Hi TC. thank you for helping to fix the Windows Update and all the other problems with my computer. I am so relieved that my Windows 10 is not up to date and I'm glad that Windows update is working right again. And thanks for fixing all those little annoying things too. My computer is now running great! My sincere thanks! William.

A comment from Sharon
Darcy, you're the greatest! You didn't leave any stone unturned in finding and fixing all of the problems with my laptop. Now I'm happy that my computer is running like it did when I first got it. Thank you so much for your great service. I'm a lifetime member of Cloudeight and so is my husband. Thanks to you and TC for all you do.

A comment from Norman
I had a session with TC this morning. I had a problem getting the link to start the session, but TC was able to work through it. I was having a problem with File History but that was fixed in just a few minutes. Then my Emsisoft was checked and the settings were corrected. I knew what was being done at all times and knew that my PC was in safe hands. They are the only ones I fully trust with my computer.

A comment from Ellen
Thank you, Darcy. You fixed all my computer problems and I learned a lot from you when you answered my questions during the session. What a great service you offer. Thanks so much, Darcy. Ellen

A big Cloudeight "Thank you!" to William, Sharon, Norman, Ellen, and everyone who took time out to write to us, share a comment, and/or share us on Facebook! We appreciate your kind words and your support very much! EB & TC.

Bill wants to be notified before Windows restarts his computer after an automatic update
Hi guys. How can make Windows notify me when it's time to restart to install and update. I would like a little advanced notification and the option to restart or put it off for a bit. Is there an easy way to do this? Thanks!

Our answer

Hi Bill. You can have Windows give you a restart notification (or warning if you like) when your computer will be restarted to install an update. Here's how to do it.

1. Open Settings (Right-click on the start button and choose "Settings" or press the Windows Key + the i key).
2. In Settings click on Update & Security
3. When Update & Security opens you should be in Windows Update by default - if not click "Windows Update" on the menu on the left.

4. In Windows Update click on" Advanced options" as shown above.

Cloudeight InfoAve Premium Windows tips

In "Advanced options" turn the switch under "We'll show you a reminder when we're going to restart..." to "ON" (as shown above).

If you set that up you should see a notification like the one below appear when Windows is getting ready to restart after an update. You can delay the restart by clicking on "View settings".

Kathy wants "copy-to" & "move-to" back on her right-click menu.

I just installed the May 2020 Update for Windows 10. Now my "Copy to/Move to" doesn't work. How do I get it back? I use it all the time. Thanks so much, Kathy.

Our answer
Hi Kathy. Every major Windows 10 update will remove "Copy to" "Move to" from your right-click menu, because - according to Microsoft - it's not supposed to be there. Of course, for those of us who have been using it for over a decade - it's such a handy feature, we all miss it when it disappears.

But it's always an easy fix to get it back. And we try to remember to feature this tip right after a new Windows 10 version is released.

Check out the following tip from our InfoAve site - you'll find it contains the info you're looking for plus a small zip file you can download and use to put "Copy to" and "Move to" back on your Windows 10 right-click context menu.

Raymond wants to know if Emsisoft is slipping
I recently had a problem with my desktop shutting down for no apparent reason. I thought it might be overheating, so I took it out and did a thorough cleaning. I got it hooked up, and everything was fine, for about five minutes. Then it shut down again. I then ran a malware scan with Emsisoft. 0 detections. So, I ran Malwarebytes after it shut down again. The result was three detections. I quarantined them and now all is fine. My question is, is Emsisoft slipping?

Our answer
Hi Raymond. The number of detections is not a measure of how well an antivirus/antimalware program is working. Malwarebytes has a higher rate of false positives than does Emsisoft and Malwarebytes is known to detect "tracking cookies" as malware, which they are not. Cookies are not "ware" of any kind as "ware" designates software programs that execute.

Additionally, we do not recommend Malwarebytes because years ago they sold-out their users when they accepted payment from known malware distributors to delist their malware programs from detection. We called them out on it, and they never replied to our requests for confirmation. And while they may have cleaned up their act over the years, we still won't trust a company that sold out the people who depended on them to protect their computers. See this Cloudeight article.

Emsisoft has never let its users down. They are not perfect, but they have one of the lowest rates of false positives. And they are quick to respond to customer's requests for help. Their antivirus and antimalware components are always consistently ranked very high in independent antivirus laboratory tests.

I'm not sure what malware has to do with your computer overheating as I've never seen malware cause overheating. If you've cleaned the vents in your computer, then it might be a cooling fan that has stopped working or the processor heat sync might have gone bad.

Tammy wants to set a default font and font size in WordPad

I use WordPad when typing recipes and notes. But I can't find a way to set a default font, font size, margins, and line spacing that will stick after I close it. I am continuously having to change it back to what I want even while typing in the document. It always reverts to the default settings. Do you have a fix for this? Thanks, Tammy.

Our answer
Hi Tammy. Most word processors (Microsoft Word and others) let you set default fonts and font sizes, but WordPad does not. But we have a workaround and it's simple and easy.

The workaround is to create a document and use it as a template with your desired font(s) and font size(s) saved. Then use the document itself as a shortcut to open WordPad.

Here's what you need to do:

-- Start WordPad.
-- Click at the top of the document select the font, font size, and font color that you want to use as your defaults.
-- Click on File > "Save As".
-- Save the file on your desktop and name it "WordPad" (no quotes)
-- Right-click on the WordPad on your desktop and click "Properties".
-- Check the "Read Only" option and click "OK". Making this file "read-only" means no one can change this document and thus your default settings.

From now on, use this shortcut to start WordPad. WordPad will open with your custom font settings. Just remember to save your new document(s) using a different name than whatever you named your shortcut.

I hope this helps you!

Jim has only two entries on his Windows 10 "Send to" menu
When I right-click a folder or file on my computer, my "send to" link only has the choice of Bluetooth. How do I get more on it?

Our answer
Hi Jim. This problem is usually caused by having two Bluetooth entries in the "Send to" folder. One of them is correct, the other is not. To fix your "Send to" menu problem, you have to delete the one that is not correct.

Open File Explorer and click on "View" at the top. Then click on the arrow under Options (on the far right) and choose "Change folder and search options". In Folder Options' dialog, click on the "View" tab at the top and make sure "View hidden files, folders and drives" is selected. If not, select it and click Apply/OK.

Cloudeight InfoAve Windows Tips & Tricks

Next, navigate to C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo

Cloudeight InfoAve Windows Tips & Tricks

Above... you can see I only have one Bluetooth entry: "Bluetooth device". But if you have two (one may be called just Bluetooth) it can stop the other entries from showing in the "Send to" list. So, I am just guessing you have two entries with "Bluetooth" in their names. If you do, delete the second one. Restart your computer and your right-click menu should have a lot more items.

Please let me know if this works for you.

Daniel wants to know if it's safe to update Windows 10 to version 2004
Do you think we should go ahead and download the new Windows 10 version 2004 update yet? I have a notification in the Updates that a new version of Windows 10 is available. Should I wait or download and install it now.

Our answer
Hi Daniel. If you had asked me this last week, I might have said go ahead, but it seems the more people who install it the more problems are being found. I would suggest you not install it yet and give Microsoft time to fix the problems being reported by those who have already installed the May 2020 Update (Windows 10 Version 2004).

Please see our article here on how to prevent this update from installing and/or installing it by mistake.

I'm only guessing here, but I would think Microsoft should have all the kinks worked out in another 30 to 45 days.

Bonnie's having big problems with Google Chrome
I've been having a lot of problems with Google Chrome lately. Some sites won't open, it freezes, and sometimes it won't open. I have uninstalled Chrome and reinstalled it. I checked my extensions and I only have 3. How can I get chrome working right again?

Our answer
Hi Bonnie. Uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome isn't as simple as uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome. You must completely remove Google Chrome and all its related folders. The Google profile folder is found in C:\Users\**Your Username**\App Data\Local and is also found (sometimes) in C:\Users\Your Username\AppData\Roaming. If you don't remove those Google folders in both locations - when you reinstall Chrome all your previous Google Chrome content, settings, etc. are reloaded back into Chrome. So, uninstalling Chrome and not removing the Google folder in AppData/Local and in AppData/Roaming (if one is there) really doesn't do a lot of good, since all the data associated with the previous installation of Chrome is automatically loaded back into Chrome when you reinstall it.

So, follow the instructions under Method #2 in this Cloudeight article to completely remove Chrome and all its folders. And don't forget to restart your computer before re-installing Chrome.

How to Scan Your Hard Drive(s) for Errors on Windows 10
Windows 10

Windows 10 lets you scan your hard drive(s) for errors while you use your computer – and it’s easy to do. Open File Explorer (Windows Key + E). Right-click on your C:\ drive (or whatever drive you want to check), click “Properties”. When the “Properties” dialog opens, click the “Tools” tab and then click the “Check” button.

Cloudeight Windows 10 Tips

Once you click the “Check” button, you’ll see the following dialog appear. If you need to scan the drive for errors, it will tell you. If you don’t (as below) it will tell you that also. Even if it says,“You don’t need to scan this drive”, you will  have the option to scan the drive if you choose... just click “Scan drive”.

A Crazy-Simple Trick to Remove Ads from YouTube Videos
Any Browser/YouTube

YouTube is one of the most popular sites on the Web and almost everyone has watched at least a few videos on YouTube. Like just about everything else on the Web, YouTube displays a lot of ads, with the videos. To get rid of them, you could pay for a YouTube Premium subscription or use some type of ad blocker, but there’s an insanely simple trick you can use to view YouTube videos without ads.

Getting rid of ads on YouTube videos is as easy as placing an extra period after the dot com part of any YouTube URL.

For instance, here’s a video of Dire Strait’s “Money for Nothing” with ads:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRDgihVDEko

And here’s the same video without ads:

https://www.youtube.com./watch?v=JRDgihVDEko

Do you see the difference? No? Look below.

Cloudeight YouTube Trick

When you add a period after .com of any YouTube video it prevents ads from displaying.

This trick works because it stops YouTube from normalizing the hostname, breaking a lot of things on a page, but still allowing the main content of a page to be displayed. One thing it breaks is YouTube ads. It’s more technical than that, but that’s the gist of it, and as long it works, who cares?

Keep in mind that ads support certain YouTube channels and if you want to support a favorite YouTube channel you might not want to stop the ads. And Google/YouTube could find a way to stop this ad-killing method from working, but as of right now it works. And if it keeps working you can bet a few developers will be introducing browser extensions that add a dot after dot.com to prevent YouTube ads from displaying.

How to Find Out if You’re Using the New Microsoft Edge Browser
Windows 10 / Edge Browser

As we previously mentioned, Microsoft will be including its new Edge browser in its upcoming Windows 10 updates. This update will replace the “old” version of Edge for those still using it. The updates which will include the new Edge are KB4541301, KB4541302, and KB4559309 updates for Windows 10.

Here’s an easy way to tell if you have the new Edge browser on your Windows 10 computer.

1. Open Edge.

2. Type edge://settings/help in the address bar and press Enter.

If you see the word “Chromium” in Edge’s “About” section, you’re using the new Edge.

Cloudeight InfoAve Edge Tips

And now you know how easy it is to find out if you are using the new Microsoft Edge.

Use Chrome’s Incognito Mode to Troubleshoot Problems
Windows 8.1, Windows 10 and Google Chrome

If you are having problems with Chrome, the easiest way to make sure that it’s not a browser extension causing your problem(s) is to open Chrome in Incognito mode. To open Chrome in Incognito mode, right-click on its shortcut and choose “New incognito window” , or click on the Settings icon (3-vertical dots) and choose “New incognito window”.

Incognito mode disables all extensions automatically*. Try browsing with Chrome in Incognito mode for a few minutes and see if you still have problems. If you don’t have any problems while using Chrome in Incognito mode, then chances are good that one of your extensions is causing your problem(s). You can disable each extension - one at a time - until you find the culprit. You can then choose to leave the extension disabled, remove it, or check to see if there’s an updated version.

If you’re still having problems, then it’s most likely not a problem caused by a browser extension. In that case, you might want to consider resetting Chrome by following the instructions on this page. That page also has instructions for fixing Chrome by completely removing Chrome and reinstalling it. If you choose to re-install Chrome, be sure you export and save your bookmarks first – otherwise you’ll lose them. To learn how to save your Chrome bookmarks, see this Cloudeight tip.

*Incognito mode in Google Chrome disables all extensions except the ones you have explicitly chosen to allow in Incognito mode. Most of you shouldn’t have to worry about that.

Do you use Edge or Firefox? You can use a variation of this tip.

This tip will also work in Edge in its “InPrivate” mode and Firefox in its “Private” mode. You can also launch Firefox in Safe mode too. Open Firefox, click on Help > Troubleshooting > Start in Safe Mode.

LockHunter

At some time or another, all of us will come across a file that won’t delete. You may get a message that the file cannot be deleted because it’s open in another process – but you have no idea what that process or program is.

And no matter how many times you try to delete the file or drag it to the Recycle Bin it won’t delete. You can’t delete it, move it, or even rename it. And if the file is inside a folder, you can’t delete the folder either.

We have the solution. It’s a free program called LockHunter. LockHunter makes it easy to delete files that are locked by another process. All you need to do is install LockHunter then right-click on the file you are trying to delete and choose “What is locking this file?” from the right-click menu.

Just the facts ma’am…

Honestly, this is not a program you’re going to use every day. You might not even use it once a month. But when you have a file you can’t delete, you’ll be glad you have it; it will save you a ton of frustration.

I use occasionally use LockHunter when fixing computers and it’s a program that’s always installed on my computers. It is one of those programs I can tell you that’s better to have and not need it than to need it and not have it.

If you install it now, the next time you come across a file you can’t delete and you get a message that it can’t be deleted because it’s in use by another process, all you’ll need to do is:

Right-click on that file.
Click on “What is locking this file”.
And LockHunter will help you delete it.

Here’s more information from the developer of LockHunter.

Leave Something Behind

This may seem morose to you, but I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how the world will be when I’m not here anymore. The world will go on and take no notice of my demise. So, that got me thinking: What will I leave behind when I leave this world? It’s important to me to know that I will leave behind something or a lot of somethings that would not have been if I had never walked upon this lovely blue planet, Earth.

I see so many people saving money, accumulating wealth, saving for retirement, or leaving money to their children and grandchildren. But I can’t believe that’s all our lives are meant to be. Is that all we really want to leave behind? Money? Property?

Money was here before we were born, and it will certainly be around, in some form, for a long time after all of us are gone. So, leaving wealth behind is not leaving something of ourselves behind. We didn’t really make it – it just changed hands. I want to leave something behind that wasn’t here on the day I was born; something that wouldn’t have been here if I had not been born.

I certainly have not lived a perfect life; I’m pretty sure some will be glad to see me gone – and many others won’t care. That is how it is with many of us, I’m afraid. But one thing I know for sure: I’m leaving behind a lot of things that were not here before I was born.

Anyone who, like me, has children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren…should endeavor to leave behind something that would have never been here had we not been born. So, if you have children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, you are leaving something of yourself behind.

I have children and grandchildren and I love them all...

Cloudeight InfoAve Premium - Back to Basics

Ctrl Key Shortcuts That Will Save You Time Every Day

Our Back to Basics today is reminding you about one of the most basic time-saving things you can use in your daily computing life. Shortcuts. And today, we're here to remind you how handy Ctrl Key shortcuts can be and why you should use them whenever you can to save yourself time. And what's more basic than time. We either have too much of it or not enough of it.

OK ready? On to our Ctrl Key Shortcuts!

Let’s say you’re reading a page on the Web and you’re looking for a particular word. Do you:

a.) Scan the page manually for the word?

b.) Use the browser’s search feature in the browser toolbar?

c.) Press Cntrl+F to open the page search dialog?

d.) None of the above.

The answer is C. If you’re looking for a word on a page in your web browser, word processer, text editor, PDF viewer, and many others, just press Ctrl+F to open the “Find” dialog. Just remember F stands for Find. Sure, you can use the program’s search feature too, but why? CTRL + F is faster.

If you’re on a page you want to print, do you search for “print” on the toolbar, look for a printer icon, or just press Ctrl+P? Right! You press Ctrl+P to print the page. It’s the fastest way to print.

Let’s say you’re using your browser and you want to open a new window? Do you just click the browser’s shortcut to open a new browser window? Nah, just press Ctrl+N. Same thing if you’re using an email program and you want to open a new window to compose an email.

If you’re working on a document and you want to save it, you can press CTRL+S instead of clicking ‘File’ ‘Save’. If you want “File” “Save as” – Ctrl+S/ works in many applications.

If you want to view your browser’s history, use Ctrl+H. And if you want to view a list of downloads, with your browser open press Ctrl+J.

Let’s review:

Ctrl+F = Find something on a page – in a browser, text editor, PDF editor, ebook, etc. To remember this easily, think F = FIND.

Ctrl+P = Print the document you have open. Whether it’s a web page, a Word doc, PDF file, text file, etc. Think P = PRINT.

Ctrl+N = Opens a new window in the program that’s running. Think N = NEW.

Ctrl+S = Saves the document you’re working on. Think S = SAVE.

Ctrl+H = Shows your browser’s history. Think H = History

Ctrl+J = Shows a list of downloads in your browser. Think J=? I give up! J=Downloads! Junk?

And let me not fail to mention:

Ctrl+A = Select All

Ctrl+C = Copy

Ctrl+V = Paste

Ctrl+Z = Restores deleted files instantly when used immediately after deleting a file.

We can only use a few to in each week's newsletter, so keep this in mind. If you have a support question about a service or product we sell, please contact us here.
