Thanks for that Chuck. Bit of a bummer when a file does a runner like
that.
For future reference, are we (i.e. plebes like me) allowed to make
files such as this available for download on our own sites or would we
need some special arrangement with MS?


No idea. I do, but remember that I really have no connection with MS
other then being the guy they contact when they want to post something
here. (Then I decide whether or not to do so!)

Now, that said, *I* save what I download so that I know where to get
the file again (well, when my CD Catalog system is working that
is....). I also don't do that silly "Windows Automatic Update" hunk
of junk for the same reason. Sitting through a 30 minute download &
install session once is enough! Then, when MS decides to remove
support for something.... Bye, bye go the files! Sorry, it ain't
happening.

You're not allowed without permission from MS, which they would not have
given in this case, so I placed a copy on my site. I was getting tired
of people asking why it was no longer available and they needed it for
their customers.

The Visual Basic code you entered contains a syntax error or the Ouput procedures are not available....."

Any ideas on what has to be tweeked (in the link/on the website or server) to make the browser know it should either (a) try to launch...

Hello All: I have been brought onboard to help on a project that had some performance problems last year. I have taken some steps to address the issues in question, but a huge question mark remains.

The reports were aggregated on the fly, and the selection criteria...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
