Make sure you uncheck the 'Use Markdown formatting' checkbox
if name != '__main':
import Config
else:

Ah ha! Learned something new. Those checkboxes are off the bottom of my screen, didn't even notice them before. 
Thanks!

Hello all,
When I scroll up or down in the Microsoft Help viewer Visual Studio documentation, I can hear a beep noise through the loudspeakers...
Anyone hears the same while scrolling there?
And even better anyone knows how to remove it?
Thank you all!

My google fu is not working today:
I've searched by noise and sound but not beeping... 
It looks like it works...

Turn off the speakers!
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Sorry I've turned off the speakers and I can't hear you...
It must be somethnig that happens to me, but after turning of the speakers I can't read too...

To prevent reoccurrence, you'd have to pull the sound card.

Erhm,
Are you watching an episode of NCIS while you're working? Maybe it's the grand quignol's laptop and not yours?
(honestly, I'm trying to figure out to which one of these posts here in the Lounge THIS post is the solution)

Usually, when making machine set ups at customer companies there is no internet available.
Moreover, if like me, you are developing software for special machines usually internet is not offering a lot of help content.

We are now calling that a Steve Erwin, you get up close to an animal and hassle it. In his case the animal stuck a barb through his chest. Karma.

As some of you may know I've been struggling with my slooooow desktop PC which worked fine before, but didn't now even after a complete re-install.
I looked into buying a new one (thanks for all the tips!), but I decided I don't really feel like spending €1399,- on something I don't really REALLY need (yet).
So I took some more time to find out what's wrong with my computer.
Turns out the Windows Updater broke somewhere last year, checks for updates at startup, hangs, but still takes up all resources.
The fix was to download some updates manually, disconnect from the internet, restart (stay disconnected), install first update, restart again, install second update, reconnect to the internet, restart.
And it seems to have worked.
It only took me a good two hours to install Visual Studio 2015 CE and, more importantly, it takes only seconds to start instead of the minutes it took before.
I am now again the proud operator of the following system:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80GHz 2.00 GHz
4,00 GB RAM
ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series (2.804 MB)
2 TB SATA
I'll probably still buy a new computer later this year, but for now this'll do

How DARE you interfere with windows update!
It's more important than your computer, your work, and you put together!

I'm expecting some Microsoft goons by my bed somewhere tonight to give me the "black eye" update with the "broken bones" service pack and the "stabs" security patch

(It's "black eye" in English)
(that'll be 50 cents for the English micro-lesson)
