In mixed reality, you see and experience virtual objects mixed with the real environment within the marked boundaries of an area defined as the boundary. Borders in Windows Mixed Reality can be viewed as an area where you can move while wearing your Windows Mixed Reality immersive headset.

Why is this necessary? Because users wearing head-mounted screens cannot see what surrounds them. It is therefore important to create a boundary to avoid obstacles and collisions.

The boundary appears mainly as a white outline in mixed reality and becomes visible immediately as one approaches it. Its appearance means the end of the safety zone, so slow down your movements and avoid stretching your limbs beyond them, as you may encounter living room furniture. read more

Once I switched to a Fitbit that only needed to be recharged once a week, which changed for me. The transport of power cables is not liberating.

How x86 applications work when developed for ARM

All the things I’m going to describe briefly now come from this video from a Windows 10 session on ARM build 2017

These x86 applications now run on an emulation layer. This emulation layer works like magic to invent everything. Code for Kernal, drives and other inbox programs such as Microsoft Edge, Microsoft Store, Calculator, Camera and other preinstalled applications are written for ARM. Other x86 applications like Adobe Photoshop or 7-zip run with a custom Microsoft emulator called WOW or Windows on Windows. And for x86 DLLs, Compiled Hybrid PE or CHPE is used to convert x86 code to ARM64. That makes all the magic possible. Detailed and technical information on the same technology can be found in the related video above. read more

Starting with Windows 10 v1803, Microsoft now offers you a way to see how much data your wireless or Ethernet adapter can consume. This is important because of the data restrictions you may have with your ISP. I’m sure many of you have unlimited or huge reserves of data bandwidth, but there are many who don’t have that privilege. This feature is important to them because the data is not cheap and you can understand how much data has been used without using a third party tool.

There is another aspect. Often you connect to multiple networks – and you also learn the details. read more

To ensure that Windows 10 remains protected against malware, Microsoft has enabled support for Secure Boot, which works via UEFI. Secure Boot ensures that your PC only uses firmware that the manufacturer trusts at boot time. However, in many cases, you will need to disable Secure Boot on Windows 10 due to incorrect hardware configurations.

If you wonder what the UEFI is, it extends to the unified extensible firmware interface and is the next generation of popular BIOS. It is secure, can store more data, much faster than the BIOS and is almost like a tiny operating system that runs on the PC firmware, and it can store much more than a BIOS. Best part, it can be updated by OEM via Windows Update. read more

Normally, when Windows exits when a program is not closed, a window inviting you to close the program appears, or Exit anyway. We could use one of the two options to continue. However, in some situations, some internal process may prohibit shutdown/restart and the user may receive the error:

Task host window, task host stops background tasks

This usually occurs when an update file prevents your PC from updating.

The hard part here is that a clean boot cannot be tempted to solve the problem because the system cannot be restarted unless we force the shutdown. read more
