Yes, I've used them before. I used to swear by AVAST! However, I eventually made the switch to MSE, and never looked back. It has served me well over the years, never had an issue. im sorry I made the "best there is" statement, however, I think an excerpt from howtogeek provides a good...

Yeah, thanks for the suggestion. When I download that file it also fails to include a ".". Therefore, the problem is not only symptomatic to executable files. I notice a other strange quirks here and there with my metro IE. Is there any way I can just start over with IE? How do I perform a...

I'll try some of these suggestions.

Yes, of course I can rename is manually and all that jazz, but it definitely deducts from the overall user experience when you select "run" and nothing happens. To address a few of the questions: I am using MS sec. essentials, have it on the 'normal' settings. When I attempt to execute the...

As its displayed --without the . Separator

I understand now metro/desktop IE. I just cannot believe MS wouldn't explain this or at least make this issue painfully clear. Otherwise, I can only imagine how many others are confused about this topic as well. Regardless, thank you so much for the help, much appreciated. I enjoy using my...

Microsoft Sec. Essentials - the best there is. Ok, so I just tried to download the same adblock.exe file whilst in the 'desktop' version of IE, and it shows the extension '.EXE'; this seems to be an issue exclusively with metro IE. Has anyone else tried to go to the adblockplus site as I...

Okay, I know I am all over the place, sorry. It's just very confusing constantly switching from IE metro / desktop metro / Opera desktop etc etc.... Im trying to install Adblock plus on my METRO IE, as it is already installed on my desktop IE. Now I assume some will say 'it's already supposed...

I think I may have copied the wrong link. In your metro IE browser, go to www.adblockplus.org. then click the green download bar, and tell me what filename it says to DL. It will be sans a .

See for yourself. Go to the touchme gesture studio site and try to Download their app. 1.5 mb large so won't take long. http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/touchme-gesture-studio/740d3578-ddb4-4f74-b489-5a3782cb7607

Download an .exe file and see.

Just noticed this a little bit ago, but say im using a metro app, and within that app I click on a file download link. On the right side, IE metro will pop up and ask me what I want to do with the file. I choose 'save...', and it begins downloading, but WITHOUT the ' . ' separating the prefix...

Agreed. I wish for the life of me Opera had a metro mode app.... Also, don't laugh but I don't even know how to open Metro IE on my own; it just does sometimes lol... When I click the metro tile, the desktop version opens up!!Wacky...

Wow a steal for 560 lol...

apparently there's a reason why manufacturers still insist on glare-laden screens.... http://www.acs.org/content/acs/en/pressroom/presspacs/2014/acs-presspac-july-16-2014/an-anti-glare-anti-reflective-display-for-mobile-devices.html Article: If you’ve ever tried to watch a video on a tablet on...

Wow, and this is why I love forums. So many untapped, unknown apps out there just waiting to be exploited. Thank you, kind sir. You've made my dreams a reality. Cannot thank you enough! All hail the Pappa Roach!

In my line of work, I have to use my tablet at times sans the Type Cover. Therefore, I'm a cyber-slave to the on-screen keyboard, and the limited options Windows provides for them. The bottom toolbar button is quite tedious to zero-in on, and press. I find myself at times breaking my...

...feels great honestly, but perhaps its because I know no different ;)

Couldn't agree more. the types of people you so affectionately speak of should be castrated then gutted immediately! Who'dve thought things should just 'work'! what a revelation!

For M$ not to develop a better UI by now, to me, is inexcusable.
