+<code>
+While the Lock screen provides useful information and beautiful pictures, you probably noticed that your computer's display turns off after 60 seconds when you lock your Windows 10 account. This happens even if you change the power options to never turn off the monitor or never put the computer to sleep.

+Those are my 10 favorite go-to troubleshooting programs, but there are many more you could add to your Windows 10 bucket list. I talked about several of them in the slideshow “Top 25 free apps for Windows 10.” In particular:
+Wushowhide lets you hide Win10 updates and upgrades until you’re good and ready to install them. The big trick: You have to wait until Windows Update says the upgrade/update is ready before you can hide it. Detailed instructions are here.
+Secunia Personal Software Inspector (free for personal use) scans your computer and tells you if there are awaiting patches.
+HWiNFO tells you every imaginable detail about every nook and cranny of your PC.

+====== The full list of shell commands in Windows 8 ======
+From: http://winaero.com/blog/the-full-list-of-shell-commands-in-windows-8/
+<code>
+Earlier, we have covered the most comprehensive list of shell locations by their Class ID which
+you can use to create a shortcut to the specific shell location for quick access. Today I am going
+to share the list of shell commands using their friendly name. Although these are implemented by
+the same ActiveX objects, you will notice that not every shell location with a CLSID has a user
+friendly alias. For example, 'Devices and Printers', the one with the
+shell:::{A8A91A66-3A7D-4424-8D24-04E180695C7A} CLSID has no friendly-name equivalent.

+If you want to create and run your own PowerShell scripts, you need to digitally sign your
+scripts.
+To create your own so called "self-signed" certificate you'll need makecert.exe that comes
+with the .NET Framework 2.0 SDK.
+To learn more about signing your scripts, start a PowerShell shell, type get-Help about_signing
+and read this text carefully.
+Then type get-Help Set-AuthenticodeSignature -detailed and read this text just as carefully.
+In PowerShell Plus creating a "self-signed" certificate takes only a couple of mouse clicks.
