For missing (.dll) files You deliberately hide useful information: the "*.dll" instead of the actual filename. Why? Don't you want help? |

How can I increase Excel's graph axis area? Better yet, resizing the chart area fixed the axis, thanks! (There are ten settings for silly options like "shadow, glow and soft edges", but none for essentials like resizing. Typically Microsoft, shall we say? Also, why show resizing handles that don't work?) |

Noscript button missing in Firefox @Nam - I'm not sure about that. The add-ons manager says NoScript is enabled, so I presume it will be that that blocks the scripts. It's just not visible. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Thanks for your reactions anyway. |

How can I get the Windows 7 calculator on Windows XP? Neither of these let you run Windows 7's calculator on an XP machine, as OP asked. |

XP and Windows 7 PCs no longer on speaking terms @HaydnWVN - They have different names. They're on the same subnet (192.168.1.*), and have the same subnet mask (255.255.255.0). I have folders shared with "full control" to "everyone", but that's of little use if the other PC doesn't show on the network in the first place :-(. I might have thought there's something basic missing, but it did work after installation, and I didn't change any of the network settings. Thanks for your thoughts. |

XP and Windows 7 PCs no longer on speaking terms @HaydnWVN - typing the IP address directly in the explorer address bar results in a timeout error (cannot connect). I can ping the other PC, though. |

XP and Windows 7 PCs no longer on speaking terms "solved" by rebooting. I still have the feeling that this is not the proper answer, nor a proper solution. |

Permissions for apps in Windows 7 That's why I say useful for some people. BTW, what's "NP"? Nondeterministic polynomial? Nurse practitioner? :-) |

Permissions for apps in Windows 7 @techie007 - Like I commented to an answer to your linked question: UAC is useful for some people, but for many it's just a nuisance. And like I also said I've never had security problems, on 2 machines running XP, without UAC, for 10 years. |
