But they still can't write it correctly XD

Rules for the FOSW ![^]

if(this.signature != "")
{
    MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
    MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

They write FSOW instead of FOSW :P

Well, I thought of something... Cost me about an hour of my life I'll never get back.
And I'll be at work too tomorrow, so I can't do this a lot anyway.

Good for you - it's not my thing. "Beer! Beer! Beer!" or "I'm dying!, I'm dying!" for half an hour, then the fat lady warbles a lot instead of holding the note... Laugh | :laugh:

So I've been sick at home for two days and today I'm feeling better, so I decided to work from home.
Need to connect to the office using VPN, no problem as I've got it set up.

I'm using Windows 8.1.
I click on the Network icon in the lower right part of the start bar.
I get this bar on the right side of the screen with all my connections (the Network center shortcut or something).
I click on my VPN, log in, and fail.
The bar now shows an error message, there is no "Ok", "Cancel", or "Back" button.
Closing and opening the bar doesn't get rid of the error message.
Nothing I do removes the error message.
The message is "Error connecting to VPN", it doesn't say how I should get rid of the error message.
I'd like to try and login again, but that's pretty hard with the error message in the way.
Looking on the internet, but I couldn't find anything.

Anyone an idea how to get rid of the error message (other than restarting the computer)?

Use the task manager to terminate the responsible process.

The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

Sure... So which process is it?
I have no "Networks" or "Big blue bar on the right side of the screen" process Sigh | :sigh:

To identify and stop a process:

Download yourself a copy of Process explorer.
You can then drag and drop the target shaped icon, within process explorer, onto the window displaying the error message.
Process explorer will highlight the process that the target icon was dropped onto.
It's then as simple as right clicking on the highlighted line in process explorer and selecting Kill Process.
It also has a handy feature where you can type the name of a locked file into the Find menu option and it will show you which process has the file locked.

Good idea. A look at the properties of the processes listed in the task manager usually also helps.

If it has a window, does it show up in the Applications tab?

Anyway, seems to be fixed now that I've restarted my computer Smile | :)

As a Microsoft Gold Partner I was able immediately connect the support team. After a long (5 sec) and exhausting discussion, the team came to the conclusion that the only valid resolution is to install Windows 10 7...

Look in the event viewer and find the error code and Google that.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???
