Re: Slicers in Microsoft Excel.
Pele West <pele.westlists@...>
Hi Flor
I am afraid I have never found a way of accessing Excel slicers. I could not find an easy way to use pivot tables, either. I had to ask one of my colleagues to create buttons on a spreadsheet to invoke macros. However, macros can also be accessed by pressing <Alt F8> and <Tab> and scrolling down a listbox. Pele West

Re: Logon, logoff and shutdown sound for Windows 10
Bill White <billwhite92701@...>
Yes, it works.
“System Exit” is the event associated with shutdown.
“Windows logoff” is associated with signing off to log on as a different user.

Hi Bill, I downloaded the file containing the scripts you mentioned and unzipped it. The unzip procedure creates three folders each containing 2 files.
What is the difference between “System Exit” and Windows logoff”?
Have you tried this technique and did it work?

Hi. I tried to send this message to the JAWS list before, but it hasn't shown up in the last 27 minutes, so I am sending it again, in hopes that it will get through this time.
In case someone cannot find this page on Ehow, I am including the link below that will download the zip file containing the registry edit scripts that will return the logon, logoff and system exit events back to the Sound settings without having to manually edit the registry.

Re: shut down sound for windows 10
Sieghard Weitzel <sieghard@...>
Fair or not doesn't come into play here, I lost my sight along with 2 fingers on each hand in an accident when I was 16 and it was entirely my own stupid fault. Is it fair I can't jump into my truck and drive out into the mountains to go hunting or hiking? Is it fair that I can't see a cute girl smiling at me from across the street? OK, so that last one wouldn't happen anyways if it weren't for my beautiful seeing-eye dog *smile*.

Anyhow, what I am saying here is that we are blind (or visually impaired) and that is what we are. Is it fair that some people can't just get up from the couch to walk to the toilet because they need a wheelchair or that others like one of the Paul's on here are not only blind but also profoundly deaf? Maybe it's not fair, but it just is and so we make the best of it and are happy or we don't and are miserable. Take care, Sieghard

Re: all Skypes work together??
David Moore
I just wanted to let you know, that if you use the three new Skype platforms, your messages will sync to all three Skype platforms, and between all of your devices. For example, I can chat on the Windows 10 Skype app, And then get on my other computer, bring up Skype 8.25, And all of my messages are all there. There is even Skype for Web, where the layout is just like Skype 8.25, but you can use it in your browser, and not have it installed on your computer. You can get on two or three devices, and all you do on Skype is synced on all of those devices. That is a huge reason not to use Skype 7 anymore. You are stuck to using one device, and not a phone at all. Have a great one! David Moore

They have a lot of tools, and can look on their knowledge base to see the best way to remove the ABSunset virus. The problem you’re going to have is that you may need to start your computer in safe mode.

It seems highly unlikely that defender didn’t detect the virus It must have been allowed through, check your virus history

Re: shut down sound for windows 10

ehow-to-change-the-windows-10-logoff-logon-and-shutdown-sounds-in-windows-10
How to Change the Windows 10 Logoff, Logon, and Shutdown Sounds in Windows 10 by Walter Glenn on September 29th, 2016 asb_top_1 Before Windows 10 came along, we were free to change the sounds that played when we shut down, logged off, or logged on to Windows. For some reason, Microsoft hid those sound actions from being modified in Windows 10. Here’s how to get them back. RELATED: How to Make Windows Play a Sound When You Press Caps Lock, Num Lock, or Scroll Lock Windows has always been pretty good about letting you customize every nook and cranny of the OS, including what sounds played for all kinds of different system events. You can even make Windows play a sound when you toggle your Caps Lock, Scroll Lock, and Num Lock keys. While you can still customize what sounds sounds play for most OS events, Windows 10 hid shut down, logoff, and logon from view. They’re still around, though. You just need to make a few mild changes in the Windows Registry to get them back. https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/ads?client=ca-pub-9173525300015284&output=html&h=165&slotname=2986027408&adk=15991069&adf=1425602538&w=660&fwrn=4&lmt=1533152612&loeid=368226311&pucrd=CgwIABAAGAMgACgAOAF4Aw&rafmt=11&guci=2.2.0.0.2.2.0&format=660x165&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.howtogeek.com%2F274010%2Fhow-to-change-the-windows-10-logoff-logon-and-shutdown-sounds-in-windows-10%2F&flash=0&wgl=1&adsid=AOsWmddE8q8xUrrOrx-N02n7NUjOekCtFtfeFB1uqhN-TOLIOqPzdiOI9Q&dt=1533152611482&bpp=18&bdt=1020&fdt=38&idt=794&shv=r20180730&cbv=r20180604&saldr=aa&abxe=1&correlator=1773816009210&frm=20&pv=2&ga_vid=2052013009.1533152612&ga_sid=1533152612&ga_hid=1203869714&ga_fc=0&icsg=167815184&dssz=36&mdo=0&mso=1&rplot=4&u_tz=-300&u_his=3&u_java=0&u_h=1024&u_w=1280&u_ah=913&u_aw=1280&u_cd=24&u_nplug=1&u_nmime=139&adx=112&ady=1001&biw=1263&bih=842&scr_x=0&scr_y=0&eid=21060853%2C21062171%2C62710015%2C62710017%2C368226301%2C368226401%2C828064255&oid=3&ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F&rx=0&eae=0&fc=528& brdim=%2C%2C-8%2C63%2C1280%2C71%2C1296%2C929%2C1280%2C842&vis=1&rsz=%7C%7CeEbr%7C&abl=CS&ppjl=f&pfx=0&fu=144&bc=5&jar=2018-08-01-19&ifi=1&xpc=YSPw2VUotr&p=https%3A//www.howtogeek.com&dtd=892 frame list of 1 items Apigee API Management Gartner Magic Quadrant Report Named a leader in the 2018 Gartner Magic Quadrant.

Standard warning: Registry Editor is a powerful tool and misusing it can render your system unstable or even inoperable. This is a pretty simple hack and as long as you stick to the instructions, you shouldn’t have any problems. That said, if you’ve never worked with it before, consider reading about how to use the Registry Editor before you get started. And definitely back up the Registry (and your computer!) before making changes. Open the Registry Editor by hitting Start and typing “regedit.” Press Enter to open Registry Editor and then give it permission to make changes to your PC. asb_1 In the Registry Editor, use the left sidebar to navigate to the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\EventLabels asb_2 You’re going to be making one small change in each of three different subkeys inside that EventLabels key. First, we’ll tackle the shutdown sound or, as Windows likes to call it, System Exit. Under the EventLabels key on the left side of Registry Editor, select the SystemExit subkey. On the right side, double-click the ExcludeFromCPL value. asb_3 Note that by default, the value is 1, meaning that the action is excluded from the Control Panel. Change the value to 0 and then click “OK.” asb_4 Next, you’re going to make exactly the same change in two other subkeys inside the EventLabels key: WindowsLogoff and WindowsLogon . Head into each of those folders, open the ExcludeFromCPL value inside, and change the value from 1 to 0. asb_5 No need to restart Windows. You can go ahead and test your changes right away. Open up the Sound Control Panel app by right-clicking the speaker icon in your Notification Area and selecting “Sounds.” asb_6 You should now see the new actions (Exit Windows, Windows Logoff, and Windows Logon) available in the selection window and you can assign whatever sounds you like to those actions. asb_7 If, for whatever reason, you want to hide those actions from the Control Panel again, just head back into Registry Editor and change each of those ExcludeFromCPL values back to 1. Download Our One-Click Registry Hacks asb_8 If you don’t feel like diving into the Registry yourself, we’ve created some registry hacks you can use. Download and unzip them first. Inside, you’ll find three folders named “System Exit Sound Hacks,” “Windows Logon Sound Hacks,” and “Windows Logoff Sound Hacks.” Inside each of those folders, you’ll find two hacks: one for adding the action to the Sounds Control Panel and one for removing the action again. Double-click the hack you want to use and click through the prompts. When you’ve applied the hack you want, the changes will take place immediately. No need to restart Windows. Shutdown-Logoff-Logon Sound Hacks RELATED: How to Make Your Own Windows Registry Hacks These hacks are really just the individual SystemExit, WindowsLogoff, and WindowsLogon subkeys, stripped down to the ExcludeFromCPL values we talked about in the previous section and then exported to a .REG file. Running either of the hacks sets that value to the appropriate number. And if you enjoy fiddling with the Registry, it’s worth taking the time to learn how to make your own Registry hacks. article end SHARE: sharer/sharer intent/tweet www.linkedin.com/shareArticle plus.google.com/share www.reddit.com/submit getpocket.com/save COMMENTS: 10 Walter Glenn is a long time computer geek and tech writer.

I used MRT and it came back saying there were no threats found. I turned off my laptop and turned it back on. The ABSunset virus still exists. Now what?

Have you tried removing this virus using the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool (MRT)? To run MRT, type “MRT” into the Run dialog (Windows key-R).

I looked on the internet to see how to remove it. Windows defender couldn’t do anything with it. The information on the web says to download SpyHunter. Does anyone know of SpyHunter? Should windows defender be able to handle this virus?
