One such customization option that Microsoft gives in Windows is choosing whether your Start Menu, Taskbar, or other menus appear to be solid, translucent, or fully transparent. Although Microsoft natively gives an option between a solid Taskbar and a translucent one, we can still use third-party applications to make it entirely transparent. Note that a transparent Taskbar does not mean the pinned icons and other details become invisible. By default, when you install Windows, the Taskbar transparency effect is enabled....

Other operating systems such as Mac OSX, Linux, Unix also support this file system. That said, FAT32 also has its limitations, like it supports a maximum file size of 4 GB and volume size of 8 TB....

I thought it would be something related to the Firewall or Internet settings as the same Google Drive installation and Google account were working on Windows 10 machines. I allowed Google Drive both ways from Windows Firewall but of no use....

If you try running a script in PowerShell, you will get see the following error message: In that case, you need to explicitly allow PowerShell to run scripts.

In Google Chrome, both of these are different things. One is the “Homepage,” where you set a specific page that opens when you click the Home button on the left of the Omnibox.

By default, the Home button is hidden in Chrome, and there are no Startup pages configured. However, this can be changed....

People now need to perform advanced calculations and not the same ones as they used to in high school. For example, the real world requires you to calculate taxes in percentages, convert currencies and measurements, and not calculate the mass of the sun.
