Changing Theme on Windows 11 Personalization with Multiple Virtual Desktops

If you try to change theme in one virtual desktop and then move to another one with Ctrl-Win Right Arrow and go back, your selection is lost.

Try doing this:

1. Select your theme in the first virtual desktop.
2. Open the Task Bar and click on the Task View.
3. Switch to the second desktop.
4. Open Personalize.
5. The wrong theme is applied.
6. Select another theme then do that again until the right one is applied.
7. Open the Task View again and go back to the previous virtual desktop. Now your selection should stick.

 

AMD CPU GPU Metrics Overlay Randomly Activated

 This annoying overlay suddenly appeared as an overlay in Windows 11.

If you want to disable it, open the AMD software, go to Performance, switch off Enable Metrics Overlay and hope it doesn't randomly activate again by itself.

 Thanks to Chezaus.

Update! I found out the key shortcut that enables it: Ctrl-Shift-o.

Thunderbird: Create New Message: default style is Paragraph instead of Body Text - UPDATE

 Update to the post from May 13, 2016

If you want to disable Paragraph format as the default style and revert to Body Text, go to Settings -> Composition and uncheck "Use Paragraph format instead of Body Text by default".

Configure a Brother Printer in Fedora Linux

I needed to configure a relatively old Brother HL2030 laser printer.

Don't look for the official drivers on Brother's Web site but rather install this package.

Make sure the printer is connected to a USB socket and switched on.

Then go to Settings and add a printer. It should be automatically found.

Stop Windows 11 from Changing Input Language

 The default option when you have multiple keyboard languages is to present the default system language for every app.

If you want to stick with one language for all apps, go to Advanced Keyboard Settings and instead of "Use language list", choose your favorite language.

You can still change keyboard language from the taskbar.

Thanks to Sumit.
