1432833 2017-03-16 07:23:00 Yeah, it p*sses me off as well.
F1, F2, F11, F8, F10 ,F12, del, esc . Its like they said , hey just pick A DIFFERENT one of those for the next model we make.
Can also have ctrl with one of the above, or shift with one of the above etc

MS should have just said, 'if you want to put a Win sticker on that thing, these are the F numbers you MUST use'
Seems every other laptop or PC I see, I now have to google to find how to get into bios , or get to boot menu etc.

Incredible, here you have an Industry full of “Regularity Bodies” and they can’t even sort the "Simple S..t". :rolleyes:

Wainui, I think I would have most of Johnny Cash’s records, but I’ve never heard that one, let alone the clip.

Boy oh boy, can I relate to it, the link will be off to mates around the world who would fully understand. ;)

Whoever wrote the lyrics has sure been there. :lol:

1432835 2017-03-17 22:35:00 The following is from XP-Vista, but it applies to W10 as well. message-when-you-try-to-access-the-my-documents,-my-music,-my-pictures,-and-my-videos-folders access-is-denied (support.microsoft.com)
That explains it nicely, thanks.
Write is allowed but Read is denied ... still seems a bit of a problematic arrangement to me.


Its a 'symbolic link' (google it) . Its NOT the same as shortcut .
Its NOT a folder .

It can EASILY cause issues when clicking it on a backup drive
It can EASILY cause issues with backup programs that dont know what to do with it

Win7 works exactly the same way.
I'm familiar with Junction Points on NTFS, and for the most part they behave exactly like any other folder to the OS and applications (some special cripple-cases like Windows Backup barf on them though)..
WT's screenshot does indeed show shortcuts, and the error msg is "Access Denied" to a directory (that just happens to be a JP) because of the Read Deny attribute for the user in question.
