A pair of Microsoft HoloLens devices were destroyed this week when a SpaceX rocket exploded, but NASA astronauts will still probably see the HoloLens before you do; instead of depending on the Windows search function, take a look at what Agent Ransack can offer; In Short Circuits: How to plan for reinstalling Windows (and whether you need to) and Microsoft seems to be planning to return to the chip manufacturing business it abandoned 10 years ago. In Spare Parts, only on the website: Computers you can kick down the stairs, an update for Malwarebytes AntiExploit application, and why AOL is (astoundingly!) still relevant.
