      @JAC ok, so I’m back here already. I’m glad I only opted for one month of Proton VPN because…

      The performance is lacklustre to say the least 😱 It’s as slow as hell which makes it almost unusable for day to day operations 😠 I also saw that the servers in the list had high loads - some around 80% meaning speed was being severely impacted 😮 Split Tunnel does not seem to work at all 😧

      There is also the issue that Proton VPN has a number of functions I’d consider basic that are missing - and I cannot really “do without them”. Based on this, I’ve uninstalled this product, and gone back to NordVPN. For the few faults it has, it is light years ahead of Proton VPN.

      You are getting that message because you have the three plugins below installed which all depend on nodebb-plugin-emoji so you cannot remove the main plugin without first removing those

      I’ve done it for you anyway 🙂

      You should be able to upgrade now.

      @DownPW I see why. The code relies on the existence of

      [component="topic/quickreply/container"]

      However, this by definition means that the below has to be enabled

      aeef638f-4188-489d-a9f2-f3a26dbca9d8-image.png

      It will then work

      7fb38631-e0f3-46ef-b652-00929d927b13-image.png

      For some unknown reason, this is hidden in Harmony, and only shows if you select it. In v2, it seems that the <section> is deleted altogether in Persona if “Quick Reply” is disabled, meaning it won’t fire as it can’t locate that specific component.

      The downside is that you might not want the quick reply function, but I think it’s a PITA to scroll up to the top of the post just to reply, so I have it on 🙂

      As an aside to this, there is also the command of tasklist which will provide a list of processes running on your machine, or a remote machine you are looking to query.

      There is also a useful list of switches below, plus the ability to format into a table, or CSV.

      @JAC Sorry for digging up a really old topic, but I wanted to come back here and post my experiences with exactly the same issue. I too started suffering signal drops, slow internet connection, and varying accessibility during the course of the day.

      The bottom line here is that it’s the Virgin Media Hub which is the bottleneck. Simply put, it’s sh*t 🙂

      I landed up replacing this with a Linksys Mesh router (shown below)

      Linksys MR7350 Dual Band Mesh WiFi 6 Router (AX1800) - Works with Velop Whole Home WiFi System - Wireless Internet Gaming Router with MU-MIMO, Parental Controls, Guest Network Via Linksys App : Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories

      This was ok for the most part, although the ability to configure at a granular level was lacking somewhat - as was the SPI firewall, which really wasn’t up to scratch in my view. However, with some minor modifications, and the disabling of UPNP support, the product was usable, and did what I needed - and, I had good speeds. However, this didn’t last. This new router rebooted itself frequently, and dropped connections 😕

      After speaking first to Linksys (who were actually useless), I got onto Amazon and said I wanted a refund. They didn’t push back at all, and after they’d received the router back, they refunded me in full.

      Obviously, I needed another router. After some research, I went for this one.

      TP-Link Next-Gen Wi-Fi 6 AX5400 Mbps Gigabit Dual Band Wireless Router, OneMesh™ Supported, Dual-Core CPU, TP-Link HomeShield, Ideal for Gaming Xbox/PS4/Steam, Plug and Play (Archer AX72) : Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories

      There’s a good saving currently on this specific model (33%), and whilst I’m not a huge fan of TP-Link, I did change my mind after setting it up. it does everything I want, covers my whole house (and outside 🙂 for that fact), and most importantly, it has not dropped a connection since it was installed. I’m getting the full available bandwidth at both 2.5Ghz and 5Ghz as I’d expect.

      Highly recommended if you don’t want to spend a small fortune, but still desire a level of quality.

      Yes, I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised having come from WinSCP myself.

      @DownPW odd indeed. Looks like it’s spawning, immediately dying, then spawning again.
