Download EXE by Scott Rymer
I am trying to download evaluation software (EXE) from Microsoft and the download starts but disappears about half way through. I know this has to do with the Attachment Execution Service which blocks these files. I know that I need to click "Unblock" but I can't do that until it's downloaded. How do I download this kind of file with Vista blocking EXE's? I have tried turning on File...

Diagnostic Policy Service by Prince Ugo
I have tried all the steps and finally come to a conclusion. The best thing to do is to get your restore CD, then backup all your important documents and do a system factory restore.

I understand that a standard back up will not be encrypted. So at the moment, the backup drives are the weak link in my data security plan. I think I prefer that my backup data also be encrypted by Bitlocker and ideally,...

Can you save a Bitlocker key to a SD Card by glr[_3_]
Trying to install Bitlocker on my Dell XPS M1530. It doesn't have TPM so I plan to store the Bitlocker Key on a USB device. Dell Support tells me my 8 in 1 memory card reader is a USB device. I mention that because I want to save the Bitlocker Key to an SD Card. Easy to pop in / out and easy to carry. Unfortunately, the Bitlocker setup only recognizes a USB thumb drive. Curiously, I can use an...
