When watching Netflix (Netflix app off of Microsoft store) my pc will completely freeze and only my mouse will move and I can interact with nothing I can’t click anything and the keyboard also dosen’t work

The team's been using EZnet and it's functional, but not perfect. We only view the calendar by day, and it has to be able to display client appointments by team member, sometimes with multiple members meeting with the same client, and all on one screen (no scrolling right at all or down significantly). The appointment types need to be customizable and color options would be ideal. Integration into our CRM Redtail would be great to automatically add appointments to their profiles. Everyone needs to have access to edit, create, and delete without team members approving things added to their calendars (responding yes). Automated team and client reminders a plus.

The two biggest issues to solve:

• Not having a phone app (and being horrible to view on mobile)
• Appointment status not being noticeable enough (it adds an emoji next to the title). Especially for rescheduled appointments, they're just left on the calendar with their symbol, and a new event is created for the new time, but with no link or record between them.

Is there a software that will send a notification if a pc turns on to my computer? (If not, then a push notification to a phone via a mobile app?)

*This is the only functionality I am after. If the program keeps record of the on/off times that would be a plus but not mandatory.

I have 2 computers. One on the lower floor and one on the upper floor. I'll be monitoring from the upper floor.

I wouldn't like to use the script approach in windows (gpedit.msc) where you send an email if a pc turns on. I barely check my email and I need the notification in real time to apprehend anyone who tampers as soon as possible.

I have a desktop in an office space that I want to protect from USB hardware attacks. Is there any program that will allow you to whitelist USB devices and block all other devices (in Windows)?

*Also consider mouse and keyboard, they're both USB devices that should be whitelisted as well.

Gilisoft has a feature but its paid. Hoping to look for a simple tool that is free.

Is there a software that downloads every single screenshot uploaded in a game's community hub on Steam in full-size?

I work in a receiving/storage warehouse that caters to interior designers. We open and photograph every item we receive and upload photos to each client's inventory portal. We photograph damages and annotate with arrows and circles to point out any issues. We also measure each piece for some clients and annotate the dimensions on an image so the client can see it in their portal.

I'm starting to work on improving the quality of this process so the output looks more professional.

We work in a Windows environment. Currently we use a combination of the builtin Windows Photos app for cropping and adjustments, and MS Paint for adding annotations. Both are incredibly clunky and the output looks very amateur.

Is there any Windows program that would make our lives easier. Photoshop is overboard in my opinion, and probably too complicated for what we need. I would love it if there was a simple photo editor with the ability to crop and rotate images, make adjustments to brightness, and add annotations/dimensions.

Basically something like Preview on macOS, but in a Windows environment.

I think Photo Booth is messed up. I recorded a 40 minute long video but the file won't open and it seems to be corrupted. After looking into this a bit, I learned about untrunc which could allegedly repair corrupted videos: https://github.com/ponchio/untrunc. However, I don't really understand the instructions for using it on MacBook, so if someone could help me out that would be great.

I'm looking for a scheduling software where people have to answer a survey before they can schedule a meeting. The important part is that I want to restrict the signs ups to people who meet certain requirements based on their survey responses.

TLDR: Is there a scheduling software out there that allows you to restrict who can schedule something with you based on survey responses? Thanks!

High, I need a windows email client that will let me store my entire Gmail inbox offline for searching and reference as I work in offline environments a lot.

I ran into trouble with outlook saying I've exceeded the max mailbox size.

I'm looking for an app besides NaturalReaders that allows for TTS and annotation of a PDF, one that can be used and synced between Windows and iPad. It doesn't need to be free. My issue with NaturalReaders is the way that comments have to be made and are organized, I find it disjointed and hard to use. Something like Liquid Text is a bit complex, but I would use it if only they had a TTS feature. Does anyone know of a TTS and annotation combo for PDFs I can use on both Windows and iPad?

I installed bet blocker to try and remove my access to gambling programs but I can't even access some sites that aren't even related to gambling. The companies support won't help any sort of removal so I am left to ask if theres any way to full remove it.

So yeah title says it. Reasoning? I have an phone where I need it do something very specific for something to work for few hours non-stop. I was thinking that before I go to school, I'll just make it run and by the time I'm back, it's either close to working or already working.

Is there a software that automatically and precisely describes every single detail in an image and caption it in BLIP style?

Because i have a young roommate with quite a loud voice and i`m looking for a way to 'force' him by his own means to speak quieter.
the idea is to set a level that will not be amplified and everything above becomes louder² in his own ears. not on the recieving side/the one he is speaking with.

i can imagine it on technical side, but havent seen it programmed yet.

english is not my native language, hope its understandable what iam looking for. hope a way/software exists.

thanks for advices :)

I am looking for a video management system where we can host videos to be purchased for a fee. Any suggestions? Thank you!

I know, I know, it sounds stupid. Open Shell is supposed to make your start menu not look like Windows 10 and make it look like another Windows Version. However, I want it to look like Windows 10 because I cannot open my normal Start Menu on Windows 10 anymore and I have to use Open Shell for it to work. My Windows Start Menu is not working whenever I press the start button on my keyboard and whenever I try pressing it. I asked my tweaker on what happened and he said he disabled it via his own custom iso and now I need to use a third party application to access it. I want to re-enable the Start Menu Key again either by making Open Shell look like Windows 10 or without third party apps and without reinstalling Windows from scratch. How do I fix this? Thanks!

I copied a file of about 50GB to C drive few days ago, now that file is nowhere to be seen but it is taking up the storage space. I tried WinDirStat and it says that the drive is only of around 100gb capacity. How can I fix this.

Thank You!

I have many old .veg files from Sony Vegas Pro (video editor software) and switched to Davinci Resolve as Sony Vegas Pro sucks.

I had the cracked version of Sony Vegas Pro on my old laptop and definitely don't want to download the crack version again on my new high end laptop. I just don't wanna take any risk whatsoever in terms of virusses or spyware etc.

Doing some research I found I could download the free trial version of Vegas Pro, but it only allows max 2 min of video to render as .xml.

Free website version doesnt really work.

I am a former IRS engineer who specialized in auditing the US R&D credit for software. So rather than being a great coder, I am pretty good at the intersection of software and business taxes.

I am trying to find a subreddit or linked-in group where software business and accounting types hang out?

Does such a thing exist?

I’m working on some video resources for my students that I also want to reuse for public tutorial videos, and it’s a lot of explaining vector math and the relationship between changes in the vectors. Animated diagrams would make this much easier and more digestible than trying to explain in theory while recording a whiteboard before moving to the code part. Once upon a time I did Flash animations on new grounds and I thought about using flash but if I remember correctly that would be an extremely manual process and tweens were not efficient to set up but maybe it has changed in the last 15 years? Also probably would be able to do it easily with the tweening tools in something like After Effects I guess. But are there any dedicated tools for this kind of application and/or anything free I can use to accomplish this?

Hi everyone, I'm working in a small office and was asked if it was doable to set up some kind of digital signing for costumers to reduce paper usage.

Honestly I have no idea where to start looking for something like that, I can come up with hundreds of different reason why it wouldn't work or how software as is done lately would essentially be a downgrade but also can't believe no-one made a good and simple solution in 2023

essentially we would need something that:

• works on a tablet(either android or iPad are okay)
• takes in and outputs pdfs
• can take files from a network shared drive
• documents are all different I need to be able to specify where I want the signature
• we're okay with paying for the software, but no cloud or proprietary formats that makes all the file unreadable as soon as we stop paying the subscription

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read my post

Hi, I am a first time founder and I am not from technology background yet I am building a tech product.

I have hired a Software Development company for the same. While the development is still going on, I was suggested to start the knowledge transfer process now.

Can someone let me know how to effectively do that? What I should be looking out for and when is the ideal time to do that?

Naturally I will be hiring someone to do this only so if someone can let me know if there are certain skills I should be looking for in the IT professional for this job, it would be a big help!

People say "IT GAVE ME BSOD" or "ITS INSTALLING THE WRONG DRIVERS" And I can say... >!THE PROBLEM DOESNT EXIST for me. Like, I have it on my PC and "Test Laptop". It has fixed every problem with performance and others. I can really recommend it!!< So what are YOUR/you're THOUGHTS ON DRIVER BOOSTER!?

NO, I wasn't paid to say this. I just think it is worth it.

I am currently in search of an alternative to Windows Copilot for my Windows 10 system. I find the concept of having access to an AI through a simple shortcut quite intriguing. Usually, I open a browser window on the right side of my screen and keep it always on top whenever I have questions to ask. While I don't necessarily require features that allow me to modify my system settings, I would appreciate an AI that can provide answers to my queries on the side, accessible through a straightforward shortcut.

I am starting work at a new company where there is a lot to learn, but it's all very decision tree orientated, i.e. if this do that. I will be at the front desk, so dealing with people in person and on the phone. Every time someone calls/comes in, it's the same script, and it's the same if this then do that (But there's just a lot of options). What I'm looking for is something I could put on my phone to run me through all the options. For example, it might start like:

Have you Greeted them "Hello this is bui1ding from company, would you like to enquire about z x y" with a YES or NO button. Then it might say which option did they pick, with an X Y Z button. And so on and so on. Here are the options I've thought of so far:

• Make a big flow chart and print it out

• Make a big flow chart and keep it on my computer (not as ideal because we will be using their front-desk laptop which will have their software running and I don't want to have my personal laptop next to that or try to run my own stuff along side theirs)

• Make a big flow chart and put it on my phone as like a big picture I just scroll through

• Use something like typeform.

Weirdly enough this is exactly what I need minus all the form stuff. Because it's hosted online (So I can access through a link on my mobile, computer, anything), it allows me to simply click buttons for the answer I want. It allows a decision tree, i.e. if this is clicked, skip to this section, and I can also navigate back to where I was if I go to a section for troubleshooting an issue. Are there any tools like typeform but that are more for what I want?

Any suggestions?

Edit: formatting

Edit2: zingtree seems to be what I want but it's paid, and does a lot more than I need. I think I'm just going to use google forms or typeform and have a back-up flowchart picture saved somewhere.

I've been looking at Notion databases as a way to keep tasks in a table with different columns each with their own attributes. It works very well for that, but there are times where I have poor or no internet and Notion severely lacks offline support. I want the database functionality offline, on both desktop and Android and iOS with syncing, ideally with file storage too. A solution with or without Obsidian. If it was stored in files then I could just put it on iCloud and or use Syncthing.

I use Obsidian and am very hooked onto its functionality of editing markdown files directly and not storing notes in proprietary formats. I've looked at how to get databases in Obsidian but none of the alternatives come close to Notion's databases, I wrote a post on r/obsidianmd if you to see it.

I am using the auto crop setting to remove the black bars in this image. How do I automatically find the right of tolerance to accurately crop out the black stuff?
