"I mess around a lot with services and drivers in the registry"
 

A Usenet Troll said that.

Whyever would ANYONE mess around a lot with services and drivers in the
registry?

I haven't needed to do that for ..... YEARS!!!

You're an end user. And you likely didn't know what you were doing when
you did mess around in the registry. Short of someone holding your
hand. I hope they knew what they were doing at the time. heh.

I think the OP (you cut the message - I have no idea what the
thread was about) wasn't referring to "boy services" or "hunky
drivers".
The kind of "services" you paid for and got scammed for "YEARS
!!!!" ago (actually 12 years ago). Although you "registered" a
complaint at the local plod-shop, that's not a real "registry" entry.
Correct me if I'm wrong. No malware or STALKING links or
cut_and_pastes. Just your own words describing the "services and
drivers" you NEEDED to "mess around with".
TIA

PS. If it was "years ago", how is it relevant to the Win 10
group you cross-posted to ?

Relevant here because, unlike you, I'm not afraid to use Windows 10. :-)

I used to follow advice from Black Viper - going way back to Windows 95
days. http://www.blackviper.com/about/

I used to 'tweak' all manner of things back then! ;-)

It's a simple as that, really.

It seems it was only as far back as Windows XP - that was in 2001

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_XP

My next door neighbour's brother worked for Microsoft in Japan. He sent
me one of the very first issues of XP at a specialy discounted price! :-)

You used a Mac "back then", so I doubt it very much.

"Black Viper's Win 95 page". Do you have the URL ? I can't
find it.

Win 10:

http://www.blackviper.com/service-co...onfigurations/

Well, why don't you ? Still use a Mac ? Or too drunk to follow
the rather simple instructions ? Note the amount of unsafe/datamining
services has increased, a LOT.

I use an iMac, a Windows 10 laptop and a Linux desktop.

Your iMac and Linux systems are irrelevant to the thread's
topic (tweaking the registry to remove unsafe and unnecessary services
in Windows), and to this newsgroup. Please stay on topic.

You claim to be a Win 10 user...

So ... the question stands. Or have you forgotten it ?
Hint - 3 lines up. (Or to the left or right, depending in what
position you passed out in).

I *AM* a Windows 10 user - check my message header!

You, though, are a LIAR and AFRAID (a fraud!)

I haven't known Shadow to be either in the many years I've known him.
OTH, I have known and been able to confirm you're both of those, as
well as a stalker and copyright infringer.

In other words, it has nothing to do with the windows10 newsgroup.
You're fishing for new bait.

Windows 95? Clearly, you made a mistake here.

It doesn't elevate you to that of a power user, though. You're
*still* an end user.
