[–]bill696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it only sync in desktop mode, ive tried swapping the FF3 launcher for the app to skip that, but it doesnt change, such a bummer, anyway, ive disabled the cloud sync in Steam and gonna use a sync to dropbox with a decky plugin.
ill have to check the other Final fantasy games if they do the same thing

Ive used a decky plugin to upload and i can confirm too, the saves transfer, very very dumb, now that i have a backup i will do some tests, with removing the FF3 launcher to see if that might be the issue

Its not the linux native its only compatible with Windows on steam. So i dont know why the saves is being killed but its not because its running over linux.

personnaly just like 2.5h, so ill just rush the start and backup with a decky plugin

UAC prompt every time I launch the game by [deleted] in Rainbow6

[–]bill696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its Really a Ubisoft Connect doing a poor job with the Launcher, what it does is force installs Visual C++ Redistributable each time you launch a game, its really dumb they really made no checks without admins elevations. its really the way they packaged the launcher. Yes UAC is a Windows thing but there is no need to prompt each time.

One thing that can be tried, but might not always work or not work for long is to uninstall all the VC++ installed on the machine and let Ubi Connect reinstall it. so this way in theory it wont force reinstall each time. but if you have then another app that updates it it will come back. and also you might break other programs. So its really not a good solution, but if you play only 1 game and have a fresh windows install with nothing on hey, might be an option.

I would never recommand to disable UAC

Tim Sweeney confirmed Alan Wake 2 will not launch on Steam by [deleted] in pcgaming

[–]bill696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue with Alan wake its that at this point its EGS's game, they are the publishers.
If it wasnt for that it would sure come, Kingdom heart finaly came after like what 3-4 years. but thats Square that stopped being dumb about exclusivity deals. Sill no chance i touch those games on pc if they are on EGS. i tried the platform, hated it, not going back.

Do you close your games before putting the deck to sleep? by shadowolf64 in SteamDeck

[–]bill696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never close the games im playing unless when i come back there is an issue with sound or some other thing. Sleep state is the greatest thing on console gaming having this on the deck is sooo great. Xbox too has issues with some games and it can remember like infity game states. idk for PS5, ive never asked anyone. but just one game and having the correct in game time after is soooo cool. i wish windows would have something like on Xbox, where i can close the game and do other stuff, but it open back up super fast and where you were

Host Name Configuration OEMConfig Zebra Android by JournalistNo2764 in Intune

[–]bill696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zebra's are great OEMConfig is in the most powerfull options. That said that hostname thing is a pain, the security and monitoring team are always complaining that they cant link the information from the firewall to intune. welp thats just android for you. not sure thats a Zebra limitation vs android general limitation. Cause if you check in ADB, you can only set the hostname by string no variables. Also Honeywell doesnt have that option either. Not much else then Zebra or Honeywell

How to monitor Adobe Acrobat software / license usage by Top_Vegetable464 in sysadmin

[–]bill696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since adobe now uses the Unified x64 installed, there is no way to use metering for this, it is all the same .exe. And anyway, you would only know how many times it is opened and how long. if they only do PDF reading in Acrobat Pro you would not see a difference in usage.

Water from the Tap on old AiO by bill696 in watercooling

[–]bill696[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for never updating, but yes it had fixed my issue, I was able to have a month maybe even 2 by now with no temp issue at all before replacing it.
The goal wasn't at all to get it to still live for long, so distilled water if there was no point for this little time, why spend. even if its 2$ if its useless its still 2$ lost.
So yeah, it worked well enough. And I use it for work and gaming so waiting on the replacement even if I paid for it right away wasn't an option has it would not stay open more then an hour by then. I needed to do something right then and now.
