You should do this if you’re selling your vehicle, returning a rental or if you’re a fleet driver." 00:28:41 Tom Trottier: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/file-server/ntfs-overview 00:29:08 Tom Trottier: NTFS can support volumes as large as 8 petabytes on Windows Server 2019 and newer and Windows 10, version 1709 and newer (older versions support up to 256 TB). Supported volume sizes are affected by the cluster size and the number of clusters. With (232 – 1) clusters (the maximum number of clusters that NTFS supports), the following volume and file sizes are supported. Cluster size Largest volume and file 4 KB (default size) 16 TB 8 KB 32 TB 16 KB 64 TB 32 KB 128 TB 64 KB (earlier max) 256 TB 128 KB 512 TB 256 KB 1 PB 512 KB 2 PB 1024 KB 4 PB 2048 KB (max size) 8 PB 00:29:47 micheline: As I recall, Windows used to have a limit on the number of folders in the root directory, but not in sub-folders. 00:30:02 Tom Trottier: "Services and apps might impose additional limits on file and volume sizes. For example, the volume size limit is 64 TB if you're using the Previous Versions feature or a backup app that makes use of Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) snapshots (and you're not using a SAN or RAID enclosure)." 00:30:12 Stew Bruce: I seem to remember the limit on # of files was a root directory thing 00:31:33 Chris Taylor: Limits on file systems https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/how-many-files-can-a-folder-hold/25368d4b-83e3-47b3-b7a3-a0fb8c7286a7 https://askleo.com/is-there-a-limit-to-what-a-single-folder-or-directory-can-hold/ https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/is-there-a-limit-to-the-number-of-sub-folders-file/70bfa5d6-834c-4e07-906b-1b5d23ca765e 00:31:53 Chris Taylor: Test your webcam https://screenrant.com/windows-laptop-webcam-camera-check-explained/ 00:33:00 Stephane: Try the camera apps included with windows, 00:33:51 Tom Trottier: You can also check in Device Management 00:34:45 Stew Bruce: Ah. The "ask a teenager" solution 00:34:52 Tom Trottier: Device "Manager" 00:34:56 Chris Taylor: How Windows uses TPM https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/information-protection/tpm/how-windows-uses-the-tpm https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/information-protection/tpm/tpm-recommendations#why-tpm-20 00:36:42 Tom Trottier: https://www.minitool.com/news/windows-11-tpm-check.html 00:36:49 micheline: Does Intel PTT (BIOS software) serve the same function as hardware TPM? 00:36:57 Tom Trottier: Checks if you have / have-not a TPM 00:37:48 Allison: For the camera issue, this is probably not your issue but thought I'd mention. When we first started working from home in March 2020 I could not figure out why my camera was not working for online meetings. Finally one of my coworkers mentioned there was a slider thing that covers it that I just had to slide back. (I felt really dumb :) 00:38:46 Chris Taylor: @Allison - good tip! 00:39:03 Chris Taylor: TV Bor https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.phlox.tvwebbrowser 00:39:19 Chris Taylor: Make that "TV Bro" 00:41:56 Tom Trottier: https://support.google.com/androidtv/answer/6122465?hl=en - Built into Android - for using your phone as a TV remote, including microphone & keyboard 00:42:51 Chris Taylor: Free online anti-virus scanner ESET https://www.eset.com/ca/home/online-scanner/ https://support.eset.com/en/kb405-online-scanner-faq Trend HouseCall https://www.trendmicro.com/en_us/forHome/ products/housecall.html F-Secure https://www.f-secure.com/en/home/free-tools/ online-scanner 00:43:05 Tom Trottier: This also works as a browser on an Android TV - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cloudmosa.puffinFree 00:43:30 micheline: I bought a smart TV, but could not figure out how to set up the Password to let it communicate with my router WiFi. Because of Covid, I did not want to bring in a Rogers technician into the house. So the new TV is in storage! 00:53:16 Chris Taylor: One type of "potentially unwanted application" almost always flagged are remote control programs. If you installed one, it is probably fine. If YOU didn't install one and one was found, you probably don't want it! 00:54:30 Tom Trottier: "quarantine" is better than deleting.... 01:01:23 Timothy: I remember seeing some free scanners that checked but won't delete unless you bought the program. 01:02:26 Chris Taylor: Desktop Restore http://www.midiox.com/desktoprestore.htm 01:03:46 Timothy: Wouldn't you need a password for the BIOS as well when using the drive encryption? 01:04:46 Natalie: Is there a similar program/app for Android phones? 01:05:30 Natalie: I sometimes have icons go missing 01:06:18 Natalie: I take screen shots to remember what was where 01:06:22 Stew Bruce: My android allows me to lock the home screen layout 01:06:26 Natalie: Pain the neck! 01:06:45 Tom Trottier: fwiw, on android, you can put icons in "folders" on screens 01:07:19 Natalie: LOL! 01:07:26 Tom Trottier: 2-touch access to 100 apps.... 01:07:57 bea: If you have bitdefender can you use windows defender to do a one time scan? 01:08:31 Chris Taylor: @bes - yes. I believe it does that by default. But it can definitely be enabled. 01:10:07 Serge-Érik: To sort my icons the way I want, I use Stardock Fences 4 ($12.99 CAD): worth every penny for me. https://www.stardock.com/products/fences/ 01:10:58 Tom Trottier: Corel - +16137288200 01:11:25 Tom Trottier: you can set Defender to scan daily/weekly/ ... 01:11:40 Natalie: Thanks for the # Tom! 01:12:37 Tom Trottier: but if u are infected, best to shut down , download boot USB/CD on a different PC, boot & run 01:13:48 Stew Bruce: Full disk encryption seems to make sense with removable disks,other than that..... 01:15:41 Tristan: Full disk encryption tends to be more used on laptops which are easier to steal. I haven't heard of it being applied by a BIOS, normally it is provided by a software such as Windows Bitlocker. The password is entered between the BIOS and OS startups. 01:16:29 Bill: Thanks guys. Another good night. Lots of good nuggets. Good night. 01:16:41 Wayne Houston: Thanks for the great information. 01:16:55 faber ichelle’s iPad: Thank you.
