There's 1 extra file on the laptop, and it's exactly double the amount of data as the tablet, so I'm guessing that there's 1 large .zip type file that has the full contents in it (perhaps a backup)..

That's an astute observation!

I found 1.62GB jpg that doesn't open as a jpeg. Very weird.

windows says it's not a zip

It's in the .thumbnails folder. I manually cut and pasted. What generated this file?

No speaker selection option on the PC?

I’m not sure I understand. In the past it would come out of the monitor unless headphones were plugged in. Now I here nothing with the headphones are unplugged, but do hear when the headphones are plugged in to the monitor.

Could be you have the same issue that I have, it defaults to headphones even though there's no headphones connected, and when I set the speaker as default playback device it only saves till I shut down?

How do you set the speaker as default playback?

I connect my Laptop to a monitor with an HDMI and have in the past have been able to hear audio from the monitor speaker. I'm still able to hear audio by plugging in headphones into the monitor, but can't her from the monitor itself. Any clue what might be wrong?

Does your monitor have volume control or a mute button?
It might not be a separate physical button but might be on the on-screen menu.

I'm currently using TeamViewer for 3 different PC's. On 2 of them I added them to my account and can access them whenever I want. On the 3rd one however it asks me for the password eqch time it changes even though it's saved as as a PC under my login.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Did you set a custom password on the 3rd one (setup unattended access)?

Nope. It has the standard 4 number password. ( For some reason I didn't get a notification on your message )

Try that and see if it fixes it.

Hi all,
I am trying to test a site on a local vm, I edited the hosts file on my Windows 10 pc but the address isn't being resolved to the IP address.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I already ensured that the file is utf8 and I flushed the DNS cache.

Can you access the site by IP address?

Zubda · « **Reply #4919 on:** June 20, 2018, 05:17:46 PM »

Yup
