TURNING ON ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT FOR WINDOWS 10

Well it may become handy to activate the Administrator account on Windows 10 at some point in time. Being that the account is not on by default (even when it says your administrator, you're not). You have to turn it on at the command line level.

Turn on administrator account
Right click windows logo and run PowerShell as administrator
Type: net user administrator /active:yes

Turn off administrator account
Right click windows logo and run PowerShell as administrator
net user administrator /active:no

HOW TO MAKE ONEDRIVE MEMORIES FROM THIS DAY GO AWAY

Image
Memories from this day is yet another super annoying thing from OneDrive. Remember it making hundreds of albums you did not ask it to do or wanted? Well this is like that - yet another feature almost no one will want. Go to your phones settings, then apps then click OneDrive. Last, click "Memories from this day" to turn it the hell off and make it leave you alone. Honest to GOD if this pile of storage space did not come with my Office 365 subscription I'd uninstall OneDrive and never use the dang thing. But since I want the storage space - I use it. BTW I'd kind of LOVE it to have a dark theme, but then again I been wanting that on Facebook for Android for a very long time.

In Facebook Jail Again

Image
I should not have to say this, but there are people eating livestock deworming drugs, so here it goes. THIS IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE, THIS IS SATIRICAL COMEDY, DON'T TAKE A COMEDIC POST AS MEDICAL ADVICE. There, did I make it clear enough? Anyway. Facebook tossed me in jail for 3 days for posting the thing you see below. You know, after a year and a half of letting people post the same stupidity as real. I appealed and lost almost instantly. I have no doubt in my mind that it was NOT looked at by a human. A moderator would not have gotten to it in literally 10 seconds, so this is doubly bullshit. Anyway, here is my strike and the offending post.

Tried McAfee Internet Security With Shaw Cable

Image
First off, do you like my graphic? I spent 5 minutes on it. I recently got the Shaw Cable internet add-on "McAfee Internet Security". It's $6 a month and for what you get, it's a great deal. However, McAfee sucked a great deal of resourced. I had it on an older PC and got rid of it quickly for that reason. I thought this PC would be fast enough at 3.4GHZ, but I guess not. I also only have 8GB of ram and the video memory takes some of that as it's an onboard card. I ran it for a couple of days and man did it bog down my system, to an almost unusable degree. Not only did it dramatically hog resources, but it increased the boot time noticeably. It's a great tool if you have the resources to run it, but my PC is older and lacking in memory, so I guess I'm going to have to pass on this. By the way, you get up to ten devices on the software and the modem has more protection as well. It works on Windows, iOS and Android devices. My phone and tablet had no problem
