I have an (old) Popcorn Hour as my Media Center and I got several Issues from time to time if I try to access my Shares on my pc like “Out of Memory” and such.

It’s actually easy to fix those issues (more or less). Just modify the following keys in the registry on your PC:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters]
"IRPStackSize"=dword:00000039

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters]
"MaxNonPagedMemoryUsage"=dword:2000000

Today, I tried to make a Release Build of a rather large solution and I got this exception:

Could not load file or assembly ‘file:///C:\some.dll’ or one of its dependencies. Operation is not supported. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131515) C:\somepath\SGEN

The solution is simpler than it looks like:
The DLL was downloaded from the web and somehow, Windows “blocked”. To unblock it, just right-click the DLL in your explorer and click the “Unblock” button (make sure, you have write access to the file).
That’s all what is needed to fix this problem (at least in my case).
