True but over time the video file sizes will grow and you would end up with a few video files for each change made over time.
I have the all the changes noted with the URL link source I changed in the OS & Office
All in one Notepad file around 40kb
Quick and easy…

AskWoody PlusFebruary 21, 2025 at 3:32 pm in reply to: Dozens of things you can do to clean up a fresh install of Windows 11 24H2 #2750263Personally i would not trust any de-bloat tool that did not outline each step it was going to do or let you exclude certain things.
You would want undo options as well.
I prefer to do many changes manually myself.
Note down a list, what had been done with each major change.
Also Reg and Group Policy changes…
You will learn better that way, than something that you don’t have control over or know exactly what it had done.

AskWoody PlusHi Kathy,
The link is for version 5, i think the latest is version 5.1 from looking around.
So your version is 2.0.20604
It must have been cheaper than version 5 when you purchased that product?
Thanks…

AskWoody PlusHello Kathy,
I was a little confused looking into the product you mentioned.
Kofax Power PDF – It seems Kofax is just a reseller for Tungsten and on
tungstenautomation.com
They call the product Tungsten Power PDF no mention of Kofax pdf
with 3 versions…
Power PDF Standard for Windows & Power PDF Advanced for Windows & Power PDF for Mac
Which version did you get and is it just named Power PDF?
Thanks for clarifying

I remember installing a certain portable application once
and it had no GUI installer, so you had to set PATH -

AskWoody PlusFebruary 13, 2025 at 7:32 pm in reply to: Install Office 365 with a local account and no Microsoft account #2748197Thanks Dana,
You Must have a Microsoft account to install and activate Office 365.
My thinking was…
Yes the Online Microsoft Account where you sign in a manage your subscriptions etc.
Then I was able to download to exe and install 365, and thought it would just activate online. I did not think it would change my Local Account to the Microsoft Account on that PC. Anyway this is what took place and easy enough to change back to a local account and still keep the subscription active with out any input.
It’s just if I had not looked and noticed, that the Local Account had switched.

AskWoody PlusEven on my Fedora box FF version is still 134.0.2 as of today
I say on ARCH it would have the latest Version.

AskWoody PlusFebruary 12, 2025 at 7:10 pm in reply to: Install Office 365 with a local account and no Microsoft account #2747888I remember a PC that was set up with a local account.
Then installing 365, that PC then change to a Microsoft account.
So i have to go into settings, account, and change the PC back to the
local account.Some people might not even notice the change or care.
Just shows again, Microsoft and sly tactics…

https://www.nucleustechnologies.com/blog/ost-vs-pst/
You can always send a test email to your account and play
around with that, to see what outcomes you are looking for
then you will know what happens.

AskWoody PlusHi agoldhammer,
If I understand you correctly, all you need to do is in Outlook classic.
Go to account settings then the Data Files Tab.
Then you can add your old pst file and you have “Set as Default”Hope this is what you need…
