windows-10

I installed Windows 10 preview and installed IIS. Open " http://localhost " in Project Spartan can't connect. IE has no problem. What's the problem? So the issue is Spartan Edge doesn't have access to the loopback addresses, which is something that most Windows Store apps are blocked from accessing. If you are using Windows 10 RTM or build 10166, this can be done by navigating to about:flags and checking "Allow localhost loopback": Image courtesy of Ryan Joy and used with consent . If you are using a previous build of Windows 10, the CheckNetIsolation tool can be used to add it to the

I dont really want to use the accent color that the user has chosen in Windows in my app, and instead want to have my own color show. I can change it manually on all the items by by making new styles, but it is just in so many places in the normal controls, that it would be nice to do on the app level. I tried setting <SolidColorBrush x:Key="SystemAccentColor" Color="#FFCB2128" /> but for some reason that does noting on some items and turns others like the video controls gray. Mamoru Satoh On Win10 UWP, System Accent color is defined as ThemeResource SystemControlHighlightAccentBrush . You can

I am using windows 10 developer preview Build 14295. From the Build conference I understood that we can enable bash in windows 10. But its not clear how to enable bash in windows 10.

Is there any way to enumerate, switch, add virtual desktops and move window between desktops from code? Preferably, WinAPI. The Windows SDK Support Team Blog posted a C# demo to switch Desktops via IVirtualDesktopManager: [ComImport, InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown), Guid("a5cd92ff-29be-454c-8d04-d82879fb3f1b")] [System.Security.SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurity] public interface IVirtualDesktopManager { [PreserveSig] int IsWindowOnCurrentVirtualDesktop( [In] IntPtr TopLevelWindow, [Out] out int OnCurrentDesktop ); [PreserveSig] int GetWindowDesktopId( [In] IntPtr TopLevelWindow

I had WAMP working happily on windows 7 as my local development server. Upgraded to Windows 10 today and had an orange WAMP icon on my taskbar. Turns out Windows had installed and ran IIS automatically (why?). I disabled IIS, restarted, started WAMP and the icon turned green. However, going to localhost results in a connection refused message. I used the 'Test Port 80' option on the WAMP menu and it says that yes, Server: Apache/2.2.21 (Win32) PHP/5.3.10 is listening on port 80. The Apache error log doesn't display anything helpful.

I'm following the instructions of someone whose repository I cloned to my machine. What I want is simple: to be able to use the make command as part of setting up the code environment. But I'm using Windows, and I searched online only to find a make.exe file to download, a make-4.1.tar.gz file to download (I don't know what to do with it next), and things about downloading MinGW (for GNU; but after installing it I didn't find any mention of "make"). I don't want a GNU compiler or related stuff; I only want to use "make" in Windows. Please tell me what I should do to accomplish that. Thanks in

I had been using Windows 8 and TortoiseSVN icons have been displaying properly, but after installing Windows 10 I can no longer see the icons for the files/folder status. sea_jackal Had same issue, and was solved by running regedit , erasing some entries in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers and restarting. Deleting OneDrive1... enties was not permited, but I had some from Google Drive. You can also make a bakup by double-clicking in the registry directory and doing an "Export" to a file. On Windows 10, most of the entries are used
