I think you have correctly identified the problem. It isn't anything to do with how much space there is on the backup drive. Unless there is enough free space in the 100MB reserved partition, the...

A few points occur. I don't know if they would really be the cause of the problem though.

How big is the folder? There shouldn't be a size limit for all practical purposes but if it's very large,...

A variation to automatic numbering could be to manually place a number before the folder name. For example:

01 February 16
02 February 17
03 February 18

This way the change of month, or day...

I use a Registry file to disable the key altogether. It works for me but I'm reluctant to post it in case it doesn't for others. A search of the Internet can find such Registry modifications.

It can be done with an extension. I find Sprucemarks works well (other extensions available):

I store the image the way it comes from the camera, then make a copy of it and process it for either web page display or printing.

Just a habit to set the D.P.I. to 300 for printing. The print's...

Answers below written from experience of both problems:

My computer Startup is much slower with Win8; i.e. more than 40 seconds!

Is 'Fast Startup' enabled? See the article linked to below. Note...

Norton used to take quite a long time to bring out toolbar updates for new releases of Firefox. They seem pretty quick at doing this these days though. Unusual to have to wait very long now.

I came across a discussion with about this here:

Going into BIOS and disabling Secure Boot...

I've tested (backing up and restoring) EaseUs ToDo and Windows 8's own disk imaging function. Both worked OK.

Since the folder is named 'WindowsImageBackup', the restoration procedure should find and use it. The one with an icon that you describe won't be an image but would be a backup of files. The image...

PicPick will do a scrolling window screen capture. The function works OK in Internet Explorer and Chrome but unfortunately won't run in Firefox since the recent update. Perhaps PicPick will provide...

Not getting infected during the time an AV program has been used isn't a reflection of how adequate it is. It only means the malware that can bypass it hasn't yet been encountered.

True that no AV...

How long was 'a while'? I think it maybe needs a few days to:

* Get used to the look and feel.
* Find out if and what extensions can make it better.
* Set the bookmarks up in the Bookmarks...

I think the trouble is that, even if a person is careful with their Internet behaviour and browsing, they still could be caught. It isn't always possible to know where the next link will lead. This...

I've had these links in browsers. As far as I know, it's always the same thing. An advertising method Vibrant Media uses called IntelliTXT. Simple Adblock (not free) should stop them in IE, or an...

I don't know what "Process termination timeout is out of admissible values" and "Service termination timeout is out of admissible values" means but would say that all of the listed advisories are...

Emptying the cache and/or resetting IE is worth a try for unexplainable problems.

I've never seen the attaction of MSE (apart from it being free). Detection rates have never been that good according to the comparison charts I've seen. There was a time when the words 'Security' and...

I don't know if this will help but if you use any program to check and inform of updates and it says there is a Chrome update and also offers the download, come out of the page and use Chrome's...

It will be interesting. Perhaps Microsoft themselves aren't going to mind where the copies went. They sold 40 million copies of Windows 8 in a month and this would be the bottom line for them. It's...

One thing I have done that I think gives the UI a more integrated look and feel is to minimise the tiles, copy the Metro interface background (print screen), take it into a photo editing program,...

I don't think Microsoft should return the Start Button to the current W.8 UI. I'll qualify that by saying that if they do, it should be on a dual UI. One that allows users to go completely to the...

If you have disabled Google Update or downloaded an update for Chrome from an update site (FileHippo or similar) rather than using Chrome's automatic update function, then it could be that you have...

Not quite sure what is meant by 'pieces' but Chrome would need to load all enabled extensions on startup to have them ready for use. I suppose you could disable some extensions and only enable them...
