Why would you want/need to do such a task. Sounds like something malicious to me

you can do this by editing the registry (on hklm hklu->software->microsoft->windows->currentversi on->policies->explorer). there are lots of sample codes in net on how to edit registry through vb.net.

after editing registry, you need to restart the explorer (end process in task manager (explorer). then rerun again (click start-> run -> type the exlorer and press enter))

DB2 v7.2 (FP7 - DB2 v7.1.0.68) on AIX 5.2.0.0. We're seeing unexpected single row (then commit) insert locking behaviour. We're seeing Applications that already hold row-level W locks in lock-wait, waiting to acquire row-level X locks. The lock-waits are behind applications that have row-level X locks on different rows (honestly). Both executing and lock-waiting applications have been granted IX table locks.

hi, i am writing a thesis on the concurrency control in db2 udb and oracle. I found in the documentary of db2, that a resource holding a (U)pdate-Lock can still be requested by a read-lock (e.g. S). If the U-Lock wants to convert to a write-lock, does the transaction have to wait for the transaction with the S-lock to finish ? Can it starve ? Is this the symmetric RUX-Protocoll ? Questions, so many questions ...

I launch a worker thread that periodically reads a volatile bool abortRequested, which could be set to true by my main form. IOW, there is one thread that can read that bool and one different thread that can set it. See code below for an overview. In a C or C++ environment, my current approach would be adequate (no need to acquire exclusive access to abortRequested). I'm guessing that I'm still OK under C# because bool is a value type....

If you had asked me 5 years ago about the future of C++, I would have told you that its future was assured for many years to come. Recently, I have been starting to wonder. I have been teaching C++ at a local polytechnical school here in Vancouver, Canada for approximately 8 years. Six years ago, at the height (or should I say volume?) of the internet bubble, I had 80+ students per semester in my C++ course. Now I am fortunate to have...

When is it appropriate to use "volatile" keyword? The docs simply state: " The volatile modifier is usually used for a field that is accessed by multiple threads without using the lock Statement (C# Reference) statement to serialize access. " But when is it better to use "volatile" instead of "lock" ?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
