Convert the text layers into low res images. Slap a watermark and you might prevent some OCRs getting it right.

None. It is completely CG! And there are many sneaky CG inserts throughout the movie too.

Sounds like a file lock. Close the browser and then try deleting the file.

Check whether the default file manager has an FTP option in the settings or not. If not, download ES File explorer. It has a built in FTP server.

You’re welcome! You can also save more time by using CTRL + R and searching for the frequent command. Hitting it repeatedly cycles through your history from the bottom. CTRL + S if you want to cycle from the top.

The command is history. It lists around 500 commands that you have recently typed. You can filter the most recent commands with history x where x is the number of commands you’d like to see. You can also use grep alongside with the history command to search for a specific keyword. E.g. history | grep foo.

And to use a command, you can use ! followed by the command number. E.g, !523 will run the 523rd command you typed. And !! will execute the last command you typed (comes handy if you forget sudo. You can just sudo !! instead of typing it all again.

Doesn’t a fat hosts file slow down the host service? I was using a similar setup before I switched to Pi Hole. I dig it for the dashboard and auto update features.

Sandler CJ

You can. Run an Ubuntu on a VM like Hyper-V or VMware and install Pi Hole using curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash. After installation, bridge your network from Windows to Ubuntu. Or just use the Docker container.

As most of the internet usage for an average home user is spent of downloading off the internet the downstream bandwidth is technically required to be larger than the upstream bandwidth. That is how the ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line is the tech used in home internet connections today) works by design — by prioritizing downloads than uploads. And as the name suggests, it is Asymmetric. So no matter how big your file is, your uploads won’t be faster.

Home fibre internet connections (FTTH) does not have these limitations by the way (unless the ISP deliberately throttles it for lucrative data plans).

While Billy’s answer works fine, you can also try deleting all the contents in this folder – C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat\Browser. This makes sure that Adobe doesn’t install the extension again.

If the purpose is only to get rid of the ‘device is HD capable’ notification, then instead of resorting to Xposed straightaway an app like Notifications Off is worth a try.

Sandler CJ

Sorry you cannot get rid off that notification. You can still hide it using the System UI tuner. Press and hold the cog and you can modify the system notification behavior.

Use PowerShell. I too faced the same issue on Windows 10.

Creating Symbolic Links With PowerShell

The second command need a prefix to use in PowerShell. It must go like this:

cmd /c mklink /d “C:\OriginalFolderPath” “C:\OnedriveFolderPath\YourFolder”

You will have to move all your contents to the OneDrive folder in your drive and create a symbolic link to the actual folder inside your OneDrive folder.

Open your command prompt as admin and use this command to move the files first.

move “C:\OriginalFolderPath” “C:\OnedriveFolderPath”

Once moved, use this command to create the symbolic link.

mklink /d “C:\OriginalFolderPath” “C:\OnedriveFolderPath\YourFolder”

This is a hassle anyway.  I wish Microsoft could come up with a feature for OneDrive.
