I recently got my Mom's laptop Windows 7, and she is Chinese, and so this laptop can do Chinese characters.
Problem is, when I open up my own files via Notepad, some of the characters become Chinese. Like 's becomes a Chinese character and <i becomes a ?. How do I turn this off? I don't have the same problem with Wordpad or Word. 67.175.224.138 ( talk) 04:27, 18 July 2019 (UTC).
Some time ago for some reason I stopped receiving Facebook notifications about friends' updates (displayed as blue dots in my list of friends), even though all such options are turned on in my settings. While I do receive updates from my FB groups, I can't see any notifications about friends' actions in my account. Did FB change something? (Running on laptop, Firefox, Windows 10). 212.180.235.46 ( talk) 13:19, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
I have the latest version of Mozilla Firefox (Version 68.0.1) as my browser, and I use no other browsers. On my Mozilla "Home Page", it lists the "sites that I visit most". There are 4 rows * 8 columns = 32 total sites visited most. My question: On that page, there are some sites that I have maybe visited once or twice in the past month or two. Hardly ever. And then, there are sites that I visit many, many times per day that do not get placed on the list. Does anyone know why this happens? Or how this page works? I don't believe that this is an issue of "refreshing the page" or having to wait for some "lag time" ("catch-up time"), because this has been happening for many months now. I'd like my list to work properly, as I would make better use of it. Any thoughts or ideas? Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro ( talk) 18:03, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
