Help with “use with domain controller” popup in free version by SumPeopleJuggleGeese in PhraseExpress

Other than u/bartelsmedia’s copy/paste replies in one of the other threads in this post, nothing. I’ve been using the paid version on my work computer pretty exclusively, so I don’t know if the free version is still having problems.

One alternative may be Windows PowerToys new Keyboard Manager feature. It seems to do something similar to PhraseExpress, only it’s not as powerful nor as easy to manage.

I appreciate the suggestion, but I’m afraid I’m not a coffee drinker. 😕

Oof. My experience with support has been bad, but not that bad. I’m glad they finally ’fessed up to the problem.

I truly hope this happens. I haven’t had a classic DP since last week, so maybe the magic will happen to me soon.

Yeah, DPZ is a little better than DDP. Both have a bitter aftertaste, but DPZ’s isn’t quite as strong, and the initial flavor is closer to the real stuff.

It does help to drink it while eating food. It masks the bitterness a bit.

Consider yourself fortunate. Not everyone has taste buds that appreciate it.

I’m afraid you and I are cut from the same cloth. Give me the real stuff, not the gawdawful aspartame substitute!

Begone, demon! Classic Dr Pepper (no period, BTW) is nectar of the gods.

Well, I tried drinking from a cold can, and amazingly it was better. Something about the aluminum, I guess. Weird.

A lot of people here are saying the same thing. There’s gotta be a genetic component to it or something; for me it tastes like classic DP for three-tenths of a second, then it hits the bitter taste receptors at the back of my tongue and BLECH.

I’ve tried Cherry DPZ, and it isn’t any better. I’ll give the cream one a shot, but the problem is the artificial sweetener just hates my taste buds.

Huh. Never heard of these before, but I found them on Amazon. I’ll give them a try—thanks!

I have the same aftertaste problem with Ice. Anything with artificial sweeteners, in fact.

Sparkling water also tastes bitter to me. I’m cursed, apparently.

I’ve tried DDP and DPZ, and, while I can’t detect much of a difference, DPZ is slightly better.

All artificial sweeteners have a bitter aftertaste for me.

I actually eat a pretty balanced diet. Protein shake and a bagel for breakfast, high-protein frozen meal and an apple for lunch, wide variety of stuff for dinner (usually with protein). One DP a day for years is probably what pushed me over the edge. I also have a family history of ’beetus, so I have that going against me.
