Treestyle Tabs disaster

  • DNS Benchmark v2 is Finished and Available!
    Guest:
    That's right. It took an entire year, but the result far more accurate and feature laden than we originally planned. The world now has a universal, multi-protocol, super-accurate, DNS resolver performance-measuring tool. This major second version is not free. But the deal is, purchase it once for $9.95 and you own it — and it's entire future — without ever being asked to pay anything more. For an overview list of features and more, please see The DNS Benchmark page at GRC. If you decide to make it your own, thanks in advance. It's a piece of work I'm proud to offer for sale. And if you should have any questions, many of the people who have been using and testing it throughout the past year often hang out here.

  • BootAble – FreeDOS boot testing freeware

    To obtain direct, low-level access to a system's mass storage drives, SpinRite runs under a GRC-customized version of FreeDOS which has been modified to add compatibility with all file systems. In order to run SpinRite it must first be possible to boot FreeDOS.

    GRC's “BootAble” freeware allows anyone to easily create BIOS-bootable media in order to workout and confirm the details of getting a machine to boot FreeDOS through a BIOS. Once the means of doing that has been determined, the media created by SpinRite can be booted and run in the same way.

    The participants here, who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience, their successes and some frustrations with booting their computers into FreeDOS, have created a valuable knowledgebase which will benefit everyone who follows.

    You may click on the image to the right to obtain your own copy of BootAble. Then use the knowledge and experience documented here to boot your computer(s) into FreeDOS. And please do not hesitate to ask questions – nowhere else can better answers be found.

Hi folks -

I wonder if anyone else has suffered this. Maybe because it's Autumn (or Fall, for you lot over the pond) but all the leaves have fallen off my treestyle tabs, leaving them lying on the ground. Since computer science trees are only two dimensional, at least it's left them lying in a straight line.

Putting all the leaves back on the tree is going to be a pain in the backside.

I've sometimes lost all my treestyle tabs after I've opened a second Firefox window, for example for a teleconference session. It happens if then on shutting down, the main window gets closed before the second one. But after a heart-stopping moment when it first happened, I found I could recover them by selecting the main window under History - Closed Windows.

This time, the second window was was Bitwarden, which I'd popped out a few hours earlier and forgotten. This time to my horror, my usual fix flattened all my treestyle tabs.

I had an idea there was a way of saving your tabs (including their tree structure), but if so I've forgotten it.

Not sure how to recover that now, but going forward you should install the Tab Session Manager addon. It will create a record of the tabs used that will allow a complete session to be restored or just a single tab.
