ThioJoe, I really do think you should make a video on all the extra stuff you mentioned at the end. You could even make a series on it considering how much features there are
I saw you're running Fences. neat little tool. I've used it for a long time and keeps my desktop really clean. You should mention that one in one of your top lists.
hey thiojoe, you may not even read this comment, but if you do, I want to thank you for making videos. Simply making them! Every single one literally throughout the years has played a role in shaping my knowledge of computers and increasing my interest in them. You have contributed a lot, to a large audience. For this, I'm very grateful and I hope you continue doing this!
BTW, at 2:38 isn't the action center sort of the newer, better, and more advanced mobility center? I remember that this used to be useful in older versions of windows, but in win10, I thought it would be a bit old. The cipher tool is great, will experiment safely with it. But ofcourse, the sysinternals suite was the best of all, please could you make not just one, but a few seperate videos about that? Maybe a video for an overview, then into specific ones? It seems like you never run out of content, I think this would be a great idea for a video series!
One application in the Sysinternals Suite is called "Desktops.exe." It enables 3 extra virtual desktops in old Windows versions that didn't have virtual desktops, and you can change the hotkeys by running the program again. One feature that I find really handy is that the virtual desktops DO NOT show the items on the main desktop, which is good if you need a lot of space. (Click read more.) POSSIBLE HOTKEY COMBINATIONS: HOST KEYS: HOTKEYS: Windows Key Alt + 1, 2, 3, 4 Shift F1, F2, F3, F4 Ctrl
Cipher is just a CLI to control the long-standard encrypt attribute of NTFS available in the file/folder property dialog box. Be very careful about this as the keys are stored in the registry and if lost, the files are gone. Also, if you copy the files out of the folder and cross file systems, the file is no longer encrypted. Be very careful using this especially in a corporate environment where you have regulatory requirements to escrow crypto keys. There are plenty of tools to enable key escrow in an Active Directory environment which should be setup first before files are encrypted.
It takes a lot to impress me ThioJoe but you certainly have. Your presentation skills alone for a young bloke, little lone your obvious understanding of the things you are talking about, I'm sure will see you having a very successful career doing whatever you choose to do in life. Good luck to you and thank you for all the great tips.

One of the coolest feature that windows has and I just found out not too long ago is the "snipping tool". It allows us to take a screenshot of a small space anywhere on the computer screen and save it. Before start using this tool I had to do the print screen, open it in graphic software like paint, crop, and save. The snipping tool does it all.
The service you do for your fans is amazing. I don't know how you ever find, absorb and disseminate all that you do. (I usually am left in the shadows, but today I was pleased to see one of my few skills on your 10 list: multiple clocks! Yaaay)! lol Thanks, Joe! : )
This video is pretty sweet. I'll definitely use that Cipher for on-the-fly encryption, and that Linux terminal is fucking sick!!...I didn't know about that, but I'll definitely be messing with that now. I thought for sure you were gonna mention holding shift when deleting something to skip the recycle bin though.
9:20 Windows Explorer doesn't actually restart if you do this. It just closes it. To restart it, you'd have to go to Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Esc, select "Run new task" under File and type in "explorer".
You forgot the most common way to open the mobility center, which is Win+X. Back in Windows 7 this shortcut opened the mobility center directly. Now it opens a very useful menu, but mobility center is an item in this menu. So must people open it with Win+X.
a helpful thing to note wrt the sound mixer - since microsoft in their infinite wisdom decided to make it significantly harder to access the Sound panel (which I do all the time for various reasons) a convenient shortcut is to open the sound mixer (which I usually just keep open in the background anyway after the first time I do this in a session) and then click on the System Sounds icon, which will bring you to that tab in Sound, from where you can access whatever it is you're actually there for
Regarding the Windows key + shortcut to start programs in the quick start toolbar, this is fine if you only have nine programs in the toolbar. I use it every time I boot up. However, I have twenty icons in my QS toolbar! After number nine the shortcut method becomes rather useless!
Getting to this a bit late but....cipher has been part of windows courses for years. Nothing secret about that. You can also encrypt using the advanced properties of a folder/file in Windows Explorer. Nothing new. You forget to mention the dangers though. To encrypt the user generates a local certificate that should be exported (I know you sort of mentioned it). Which means if the OS is changed/reinstalled the encrypted files can't be decrypted (unless you did export the certificate). If the user leaves your company and you haven't generated a data recovery agent certificate (which needs to be done before you start encrypting), you have no way of decrypting those files. Thirdly, the user hast to have full acces rights on the folders/files they wish to encrypt. Your math input panel is just part of the tablet tools which have been around since Vista. The BASH was added for remote connections to cloud environments. Please do some research as people seem to use your videos as a source of information.
My favorite features were 2 number 9s, number 9 large, number 6 wit extra dip, number 7, 2 number 45s one wit cheese and the large soda feature was also pretty helpful
+1 For Sysinternals Suite, going through the Suite would provide a lot of good content. Also, Mark Russinovich, the creator of Sysinternals has written a book, Zero Day.
I would like you to make a separate video on tall of the programs that windows doesn't give you automatically that you talked about a little bit at the end, Thanks!
Please take some time to do a video on the sysinternals suite features that are useful... I am having great pleasure watching your instructional videos and makes me understand my machine better. Thank you so much for being around to help non techies like me.
I am a big fan! Thanks for all the great info and yes Please make the totally separate video about that sysinternal. That deserves a full 20-minute video ❤ 🤗
SysInternals was originally written by Mark Russinovich in the mid 1990's. Originally written for Windows 1995. Microsoft acquired SysInternals in 2006.
Nice video. The Volume mixer is also available on Windows 7, I have used it a lot. The process explorer software has been around for a long time, I remember using it I think back on Windows 98 or XP... hasn't changed much, always handy. The BASH shell is awesome. As a developer that is a far superior environment for software development so I feel Microsoft was smart to include that. I use development software that is open source and cross platform when I develop on Windows where a BASH shell would be very handy and simplify things.
Everything here was new to me except the Volume Mixer ( I'm surprised you consider it to be not well known). Either way, great list! That Cipher module is gonna come in handy...
Great video (as usual)! But.... 1. Cipher didn't work: It just said "error" 2. when I clicked on "end explorer" my whole computer died. And by the way, explorer never froze when I used it....
Computer didn't die. Explorer controls pretty much everything graphical. The catch with shutting down Explorer is... you need some way to restart it again. If you can't restart explorer, you end up stuck.
> See's ThioJoe uploaded. > Puts on shades > Video quality increased by over 9000 units Srsly though,. with shades on those Philips hue lights looks sooo much better. Maybe you can edit the video to try to increase the temperature and hue etc to try to simulate the effect?
Hi I am feeling stupid. I stumbled on you channel and didn't realise you started out as a joke channel. Aghhhh I did two of your experiments before I realised!!! Thank you for the humbling experience. Its good for me really. As a 55 year old man who has only ever used Mac I had no idea at all you were joking lol. you got me mate.
Nice Vid, thanks! I have been using the process explorer for years and love it but Im not too familiar with the other options in the sysinternals suite. Please do a dedicated video on the suite. Thanks.
Windows could be so much better if there was GUI access to all these hidden features you need command prompt for. Although it kind of makes sense not making it too easy for the layman PC user to use features that can cause themselves problems using them wrong.
A hidden feature introduced in Windows 8 and in Windows 10 is slide to shutdown, meant for tablets. Go to C:\Windows\System32\SlidetoShutDown.exe. You can make a shortcut to it on your desktop or pin it to the taskbar
I knew everything except for the cipher command and the fact that you can hold control and shift and right click the taskbar to have the option to exit the explorer. I knew everything else though!
There is a program called "on-screen keyboard". You should probably create a shortcut of it or remember the location in case your keyboard doesn't work
thanks for telling me about Sysinternals Suite and the two you talked about , they are just what i need , please make the video about Sysinternals Suite

thio joe can you fix games error
ThioJoe yes I use autorun already... and i want to know more about the other tool... please make a separate video...
ThioJoe Please Make A Video About It!!!!
can't you just open the mobility center with like [WIN] + [P] if I remember correctly? not a Windows user here, sorry xD
Yes I would like a separate vid on SysInternals. You think you can make that happen? *Hands a shiny new nickel*

OUTSTANDING info for computer nerds!!... even us old ones!! Well done!
That moment you try to say goodbye to the good blob emojis becasue of the stupid new emojis
I still have the blobs! 😀
You should totally do another expansive video on the sysinternals programs!
knew everything but sysinternals and cipher. Thanks Thio!
Definitely would love a video about SysInternals!!
Dat thumbnail doe... RIP Google's Blob Emoji 2013-2017
As a computers guy, this video actually have some things that'll help me. Thanks Thio!

Yes please Joe ... separate video on sysinternals! :-)
Definitely make a video about the best tools in Sysinternals Suite.
Thanks Thio, brilliant as usual. Yes, please do a video on the final tip, so as for less savvy, to know what each does.
As a student working for CERN, the bash on Windows already saved me a lot of time !
And you need to do that Sysinternals video !
Hey please do full review on Sys internal Suite .... Great video..
9:20 Windows Explorer doesn't actually restart if you do this. It just closes it. To restart it, you'd have to go to Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Esc, select "Run new task" under File and type in "explorer".
Bash shell and volume mixture together ?? Cool advanced windows tips :)
Thanks Joe.. yeah please do the Sysinternal in a seperate video

You can go to Windows Boot Menu by holding shift and clicking Shut Down or Restart. Then, you can switch to another os if you are dual booting.
Please do a video on more of the best included programs of the sysinternals suite thing

You should definitely do a video for Windows Sysinternals. Sounds pretty cool and interesting
I would love to see a separate video on Sys internal!
Delta Productions same
Volume mixer Super useful trick I didn't know about!!
I want to listen to music while gaming along with low volume game sounds. Now I can do that! :)
Regarding the Windows key + shortcut to start programs in the quick start toolbar, this is fine if you only have nine programs in the toolbar. I use it every time I boot up. However, I have twenty icons in my QS toolbar! After number nine the shortcut method becomes rather useless!

4:09 The built in Windows search is not just slow, it is also inaccurate, and has very limited search filters. Try locate32 instead

kudos for using # for number
Quick tip: you can also pin the volume mixer to your taskbar for quicker access.
Windows could be so much better if there was GUI access to all these hidden features you need command prompt for.

plz do a video on the sys internals they are really useful love the vids btw keep em up

One really cool feature of windows is that its not os x

Uhh yea I did the "exit explorer" thing and it isnt restarting... wow that worked so well
I knew about the Volume Mixer and Process Explorer.
can we see best tools for sysinternals video please?
I love these top lists!
yeah do a tour of sysinternals!
WOW, how do you find discover these. Great video. Thanks.
There is a program called "on-screen keyboard". You should probably create a shortcut of it or remember the location in case your keyboard doesn't work
Nice idea! I have pinned it in my taskbar 😁
thanks for telling me about Sysinternals Suite and the two you talked about , they are just what i need , please make the video about Sysinternals Suite
Note: on versions older than Windows 10 the Volume Mixer is available in the normal left-click speaker menu.
Sysinternals tools are not directly from Microsoft. They are from Mark Russinovich, which is a Microsoft MVP.
You're amazing! How do you discover these things?!!
He has a super specialized degree in medicine, physics and philosophy, besides his normal specialized degrees. BTW, do you know that he passed high school when he was just 9 months old. I'll also share another secret; he is the ONLY kabbionaire in the whole Universe :)
