Comcast just recently upgraded everyone’s internet speeds for free in June, so I was getting 90 Mbps downstream / 12 Mbps upstream since I had the Blast! package.

Now I’m blazing with 125 Mbps downstream / 25 Mbps upstream having changed my package today. The increased upload speeds are definitely the best part of this upgrade for me.

The Call of Duty in me has been dying for many years now, however I’m still looking forward to Black Ops 3. Gaming in general has died down a lot, though with all the new exciting releases coming up over the next bunch of months that should see a slight change.

I don’t have many expectations for it, but I do at least hope it’s a lot better and more fun than Advanced Warfare (not that it was horrible). There a lot of other games I look forward to play a lot more than this title though, especially The Division.

Here are essential Chrome Extensions that I believe most types of users should have installed, rather it be to enhance their experience or for security/privacy/etc reasons.

Here are 3 possible fixes for the ntoskrnl.exe memory leak on Windows 10.

  1. Update your Network Drivers.
  2. Go into your registry via regedit and navigate to “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Ndu” and edit DWORD “Start” and change the value from 2 to 4.
  3. Disable “Show me tips about Windows” under Settings > System > Notifications & actions.

Any of these changes will require a system restart afterwards to come into effect.

Hopefully you see the problem has been fixed or a drop in its memory usage.

If you are looking for a way to get your “Details” moved back to the bottom pane then use this safe tool that doesn’t modify any system files and is easy to install and uninstall.

It comes with a few other features as well that may or may not be useful to you.

The tool is called OldNewExplorer and can be used for Windows 10, 8.1 or 8. It’s a shell extension / tweaker which can undo “improvements” to file browsing made in newer Windows version. Everything is optional for your liking.

Download it here (and more details/features): OldNewExplorer
