Tuesday Random Stuff…

March 4, 2020, 07:53(EST) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

I’m Back
I want to thank so many of you that reached out to me during these last difficult months. Touched, amazed, grateful… those words don’t seem adequate. It helped me and my wife more than you know.
I’m doing well and my absence has been due to attending to things that were left unattended or neglected this last year or so. I will be easing back into this.

Google Chrome Updated

Microsoft PowerToys 0.15
“Our mantra for the 0.15 was infrastructure, quality, stability and work toward getting a way to auto-update PowerToys. While it took a bit longer to get here, we feel it was worth the extra time to fix bugs that really impacted your experience with PowerToys.”

    Glad your back. Regarding blocking “See also: Blocking A Programs Internet Access Via The Windows Firewall” I use a program called “Firewall App Blocker”. Make it easy to use Windows Firewall to block programs by folder.
