Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes like Windows Updates and interrogating your PC etc. Don’t you want to get it back for your self? Here is the trick how to get 100% of your available bandwidth.

To get it back:

Click Start then Run and type “gpedit.msc” without quotes. This opens the “group policy editor” and go to: “Local Computer Policy” Then “Computer Configuration” Then “Administrative Templates” Then select “Network” then “QOS Packet Scheduler” After that select “Limit Reservable Bandwidth”.

Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not configured, but the truth is under the ‘Explain’ tab i.e.” By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default.”

So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO. This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20%.

Yet, when you browse My Computer or My Documents, a single click lets you select a file or folder, but you have to double-click to open it.

If you’d rather single-click to open files and folders, you can change the setting on your mouse (don’t worry, this process doesn’t require any double clicks).

To change the settings on your mouse

1. Click Start, and then click My Computer.

01

2. Click Tools, and then click Folder Options.

02

3. Click Single-click to open an item. Then, click OK.

03

Now you can navigate folders and open files with a single rather than a double click. If you need to select a file, simply hold your mouse over the file for a few seconds without clicking.
