Hello

Thank you

Just my opinion Don, but I am not sure this should be enabled by default, this is at least the fourth user in the last few months posting asking how to undo this default setting.

AFAIK it is not enabled by default. :?

Oh, it is enabled for Win10 and later. OK, I will remove it and see what happens. I suppose the other crowd will start crying.
