    How to consolidate many small files?

    I have many directories that are filled with many small files on a backup drive. These directories are archives of files just serving as a backup. How do I consolidate these files? Winrar, zip, 7zip, something else? Some directories are 128gb. I am a little hesitant creating 128gb rars. Is...

    How to disable compressed memory on windows 10? Am I reading task manager correctly?

    It had to be the game data that was compressed. Where else would it find 4GB of data out of the total 12GB used? Game loads textures, doesn't use them for a while, windows starts compressing it, then you get delay once those textures are needed. I discounted the fact that there was a delay to...

    How to disable compressed memory on windows 10? Am I reading task manager correctly?

    With my results, I feel that input lag has gone down significantly. I do not have the tools to measure it, but I feel like I shaved off 20ms. Sure your eyes cannot see the difference, but you feel the difference just moving the mouse. Input lag can be significant, even with fast response...

    How to disable compressed memory on windows 10? Am I reading task manager correctly?

    I will be observing my commit overtime. If it rarely exceeds 24gb, then I do not want compression for sure. They can say what they want, but compressing 4gb takes a chunk of power, yet if my use rarely exceeds phsyical available memory, then it can be completely avoided. If I find myself...

    How to disable compressed memory on windows 10? Am I reading task manager correctly?

    Thanks !! I know that learning how to read the memory tab wont change anything, but I'd rather not be ignorant and try to learn. Just like additional gauges on a car. Sure gages like oil pressure, boost, knock, A/F ratio, trans temp are unnecessary to the general population, yet they are...

    How to disable compressed memory on windows 10? Am I reading task manager correctly?

    This is a two part question. I'd like to disable compressed memory. In my opionion ram is supposed to be blazing fast. I do not want to wait for the CPU to decompress whatever it compressed or waste CPU power on that task. From what I read on google, I would have to disabled the super fetch...

    Enable iGPU inside Dell PC without having monitor connected

    I stream my PC to my tablets & laptops. With the latest crimson drivers from AMD, they have managed to break hardware encoding via their GPU's! GG AMD :thumbsup: Instead bogging down the CPU with CPU encoding, I'd like to use Intel Quicksync iGPU acceleration. I tried it and it works great...

    Dual Booting Cloned Partition - Incorrect Drive Letter on Clone

    I solved it the issue. It was because that the disk lettering was already enumerated for the other partition on the initial installation. You couldn't change it in disk management since it was in use. I opened the registry on disk d remotely. I went into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM >...
