Oops sorry, I see you've already tested with another MHT.

My more important email accounts (aka work) are handled by the full-blown Outlook client, but I otherwise use Win10's built-in client for my personal email. Things I probably don't need to hang on to for a long time and will probably get nuked sooner or later. Amazon's stuff falls in that category.
Their emails tend to end up in my junk mail folder, where images are blocked. If I really want to read them, I just drag the message onto the inbox, and read it from there, with the images unblocked automatically.

So a moments thought tells me why: Outlook looks at the email in HTML and packages it in a MHT file and uses the default app to open those via Process.Start (or similar). Unfortunately, neither Chrome nor Edge support MHT files anymore, so it digs up the oldest browser it can find on the computer and uses that ...
Edge certainly does support MHTs and it's very fast for both saving and reading them. It's faster than either IE or Waterfox with the UnMHT addon. (UnMHT no longer works in Firefox).
(I'm not sure whether or not this feature is inherited from Chrome/Chromium or added by Microsoft. Kudos to the Edge dev team for adding it if is their work).
The only reason the MHTs open in IE and not Edge is that you haven't selected Edge to be your default app for MHTs. You can do this through the usual 'Choose default applications by file type' in Settings.
However, it would help if Outlook itself was aware of this issue and gave you an alert to tell you what MHTs viewers are installed on your system. Whilst it can no longer directly change preferences (due to a preference-signing addon that Microsoft added to apps muckong around which people's preferences), it could tell you where to go to change your MHT preference.

So, staying at home and no family outing lead to my car being idle for too long (used once around 1+ month back). Did not anticipate that around a month without use would add another task to my TODO list.
One of the task to close on today - get mechanic and get it jump started and charge up the battery.
|

Yeah, mine did that as well - alarms and suchlike use more power than you might think!
I got one of these: Röhr Battery Charger 100 Amp 12V / 24V DFC-650P Intelligent Turbo/Trickle with Repair, Maintain and Jump Start - HGV/Lorry/Car: Amazon.co.uk: Car & Motorbike[^] It's vastly overkill for what I needed, but the Jump Start has come in handy twice (on neighbours cars in the same position). It delivers up to 480A starting current in Jump Start mode for up to 5 seconds (then needs 20s to cool down) and if that won't start the car, nothing will!
I wasn't expecting it to be so big or heavy, but my word it does what is says on the tin and saves a callout / mechanic fee!

Don't have the wire to connect! No other option then to get a mechanic with tools.

I hope I don't need to buy a new one now!

I had the same problem, but it worked OK after a few hours on the charger. Until, of course, the day when I was away from home and it died completely. All well again after installing a new one.

Hoping the same for me - a recharge and all back.
I still am confused if I can/should put on AC or not once my car is charged 30 min or so.

It is best to ensure everything is switched off while charging. And once charged and you are driving keep all accessories switched off for a few days at least.

You're far nicer to your vehicles than I am. I'd be blasting all of the accessories simultaneously and if anything went wrong I'd just blame Toyota.

That is going to be difficult. Would prefer keeping windows up and AC on if I go out in car for now. Lets see.

You look at your "volt meter" (if you have one) to see how much your alternator is charging.

Don't think so I have. Will check if any indicator similar.

Computerised cars (i.e. built this century) often have a "Secret" way to show the battery status on the car display: for mine it's "turn the ignition to position one, and press the trip reset button three times in quick succession"
That stays available until the engine is turned off.
Google your make and model plus "show battery voltage" and you'll likely find it.

I will surely try this tomorrow on my car - though I think Indian cars are behind and not comparable. Further, I don't think my car is computerized. Bought it in 2012 and probably after couple of years later some computerization started kicking in cars.

Nada. Tried it.

Oh, I see you are Bangalore - that makes sense.

Bangalore is known as an Air Conditioned city. No need to use AC in cars. As a resident of Bangalore, I have never switched on AC in my car; don't even know how to turn it on.
|
|
|
|
|
I must admit on my short visits I found the air nice and fresh. But it was rather warm for someone used to British weather.
|
|
|
|
|
Ah! So you have been to Bangalore earlier. Seems few number of times. When was your last visit?
|
|

15 years ago when our company was outsourcing some work to MindTree. I was working at their HQ and living in a hotel the other side of town. Technically it was largely a waste of time and money to send me over there, but I met some nice people, and ate some wonderful real Indian food.

So I take it you don't scare away from spicy food.

You still in Bangalore?
Summers are hot now. Currently, if it rains, yes - we would not need ac or else usual days, going out does need.
But again, intent of AC here was to keep windows rolled up and travel.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes. Am a resident of Bangalore for the past 53 years. In my childhood, there were no fans at home. Then, over time, a fan was purchased. But never an AC. Even in the hottest of Bangalore summers, I don't switch on the fan. But then, I may be different.
|
|
|
|
|
Yep - different.
last 4-5 years, summers are hot with need of cooler for sure if ac not possible. Earlier, though it was really good weather all year round, not anymore.
