I recently started working in VS2010 and noticed right away that the font I use, Consolas, doesn't pop like it does in VS2008. First I thought my settings didn't get imported, but I checked and Consolas was the default text! It's a really minor detail, the sort of stuff that Mac users are known for, but on the left is the slightly blurr...

Hi all, this is probably a n00b question, but even so... Apart from MS Office, I have not used the Win OS for anything other than playing games. I think maybe with Win 7 it's time to get up to speed with .net and whatever other windows-focussed libs will probably be useful to know. Until 4 years ago, I had worked primarily in mainfram...

I installed an old VB6 app that I wrote on Windows 7. The app produces an HTML file and saves it to Program Files (x86)/{Application}/report.html. I then installed a newer version of that app on the same machine and ran the same report. But when I open the new generated report.html file, I see the OLD version of that file. It seems lik...
Windows 7 introduced Virtual WiFi which allows you to create hotspots. However I can't find any tutorials on doing it in C#. I found Virtual Router (It is open source and is written in C#) but I can't seem to figure out how it works because it has a lot of unrelated code since it is implemented as a service. Can anyone explain how can I...
I have a WPF application that works on XP and usually(?) works on Windows 7. The twain library is raising a Win32Exception when I try to enable the twain GUI.

The problem: If I make a request with Firefox, IE, Chrome or Safari it takes takes about one second before my server sees that there is a new connection to be accepted. Clues: Using o...

It doesn't happen on XP at all, only on Microsoft's newer operating systems. I originally ran into this problem with PHP complied on Windows. The scripts themselves seemed to run at the expected speed, but ...
I'm trying to follow... http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/Install_SxS_native_dll.aspx ...but nothing I am able to do so far can get me things labelled “mycert.cer” or “mycert.pvk”.
