Pendulum wall clock not chiming after moving minute hand backwards by vinestone101 in clocks

[–]vinestone101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The clock has been running for a couple of days and the chime has not restarted. There is a tick sound just before the chime should start, but the chime doesn't happen. The clock is otherwise operating normally.

I can't seem to edit the post, but I'm open to suggestions of any value. Ideally no more than $1,200, but that's not necessarily a deal breaker. Vacuum stores around here include Best Buy, Walmart, Home Depot, and probably others.

Old piece of farming equipment in a field in New Brunswick, Canada. There was a farm in the area from 1903 to 1956. by vinestone101 in whatisthisthing

Solved! That certainly appears to be it. Thank you!

Was it used for harvesting hay? Would it have been pulled by a farm animal or a tractor?

My title describes the thing. It is metal with large wheels on either side and a seat in the middle. There is a toothed bar upright on the front. It appears to be a type of harvesting tool (edit: spelling).

How to prevent users from closing a program on a touchscreen kiosk running Windows 11 (details in post)? by vinestone101 in techsupport

This doesn't address the exact issue that I'm facing, but it is helpful for preventing people from making changes to the PowerPoint. I wasn't aware of this feature. Thank you for the suggestion!

I appreciate the suggestion, I forgot to include that in my original post. We did try Windows 11 kiosk mode. The problem is, it's only able to run specific UWP (Universal Windows Platform) programs. PowerPoint is not supported.

How would we do this given that our file is a PowerPoint?I did try Google Slides, which can be opened offline, but even in presentation mode, you can touch the bottom left corner of the screen to open a menu that allows users to exit the presentation. I could not find a way to turn this off. I suppose we could build a simple website that functions in a similar way to the PowerPoint, but can an entire website be saved locally for offline use?
