Jogee, are your personal files backed up?

If they are then I would suggest trying a fresh installation of Windows.
If they aren't backed up then I would suggest trying a repair installation of Windows.


P.S. - LM, he can download but not install.

Hi Sebastian

As this is a syn-tech question using  Macro express it may be an idea to ask on their forums.

Computer programming / timing conflict in a x32Win10ProV22H2 batch file
« Last post by Sebastian42 on April 21, 2024, 06:26:14 AM »
Two versions of a batch file and their results :

Start "" "C:\Program Files\ToggleTaskbarAutohide\ToggleTaskbarAutohide.exe"
Start "" "C:\Program Files\Macro Express Pro 6\MeProc.exe" /ASaveDeskTopView
Start "" "C:\Program Files\ToggleTaskbarAutohide\ToggleTaskbarAutohide.exe"


The third line takes effect before the second is finished.

Start "" "C:\Program Files\ToggleTaskbarAutohide\ToggleTaskbarAutohide.exe"
Start "" "C:\Program Files\Macro Express Pro 6\MeProc.exe" /ASaveDeskTopView
timeout 1
Start "" "C:\Program Files\ToggleTaskbarAutohide\ToggleTaskbarAutohide.exe"


The CMD window that handles the timeout gets caught in the snip, thus spoiling it.

How to get a delay without the CMD window ?  I have tried 'wait' - it is no better.

I will present two versions of a batch file, and list the effects they have.

Start "" "C:\Program Files\ToggleTaskbarAutohide\ToggleTaskbarAutohide.exe"
timeout 1
Start "" "C:\Program Files\Macro Express Pro 6\MeProc.exe" /ASaveDeskTopView
timeout 1
Start "" "C:\Program Files\ToggleTaskbarAutohide\ToggleTaskbarAutohide.exe"

The third 'START' line takes effect before the second one has completed 
 

Start "" "C:\Program Files\ToggleTaskbarAutohide\ToggleTaskbarAutohide.exe"
timeout 1
Start "" "C:\Program Files\Macro Express Pro 6\MeProc.exe" /ASaveDeskTopView
timeout 2
Start "" "C:\Program Files\ToggleTaskbarAutohide\ToggleTaskbarAutohide.exe"

When the second timeout is increased to anything over '1', the CMD window for the third 'START' line is superimposed on the snip image (thus spoiling it).

How to get the third 'Start' line to 'wait' till the second has completed ?

Hi

I suspect you have a hardware issue like faulty memory or a failing hard drive. Did the computer come with any diagnostic tools built in? Most Dell or HP's do. If so i would run the diagnostics and see if anything is failing.

If you can still run programs i.e windows is still starting you could run speccy and publish a report coping the url link to a post here.
Or some hardware details would also help

When you see the pop up move your mouse over it, it should show a gear icon for its settings. Select that and turn off the notification.

Or you may have enabled by mistake this program to display notifications in your browser.

In Chrome

Go to Google Browser settings and type "site settings" in the search box.  Go into site settings and under the recent activity you will find www.accuweather.com.  Click into that website site setting and find the button for "Reset Permissions" Click the button for "Reset Permissions and that should set notifications back to ask or simply change the notifications to "block".

In Edge, go to the three dots found in the upper right. Click on it and select settings and then site permissions. Scroll down to the bottom under allow and remove the accuweather url.

It could be because Accuweather has been enabled in notifications in windows.
go into notifications! Settings > System > Notifications & actions > scroll down > click slider to off on anything you don't want notifications from .
