10 Fixes for Vista's Worst Features

Windows Vista is loaded with features, but they don't all work as they should. Here's how to tweak, modify, cope with, or work around the operating system's biggest blunders.

Vista UAC...every time I remember it...it gives me the shivers :S

gaffyh6500d ago

Lol True. I tried the firewall fix, and it doesn't seem to work properly for me (most likely I'm doing it wrong), it just blocks all outbound internet access for me.

hay6500d ago

Just turn it off. Easy. I have no problems with it.

Droid6500d ago

pointless article.

most of the "issues" are non existent and just make no sense. clearly trying to fill 10 items. but yes, it is a no brainer to turn off UAC. that's pure sh1t. turn it OFF.

however, they do recommend Comodo firewall, which is great and free (much better than that Zone Alarm GARBAGE)

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing62d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit62d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing62d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9262d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
