How to find the number of cores on your computer or server

You can find the number of cores your computer or server has by going to Start, and typing in msinfo32 to activity the system information utility. In the System Summary scroll down to the entry for the Processor and this should indicate the number of cores.

Keep in mind that the number of Agents installed on a Relativity server can't exceed the number of cores. Relativity agents work in the background to complete user initiated jobs. For example, it's possible to add more worker OCR agents to complete an OCR job - just don't exceed the number of server cores!

Windows Explorer Default Location

You can change the folder that Windows Explorer defaults to when you open it.

In the Programs . . . Accessories menu, right click on Windows Explorer and choose Properties. On the Shortcut tab, you'll see a field labeled, Target:

. . . enter a specific path preceded by /n,/e, and when you open Windows Explorer from the menu in the future it will automatically go to the default folder.

Adding Folders to Your Win 7 Documents Library

The Windows 7 Documents folder in the library in Windows Explorer contains an option you may not have noticed. At the top where it says "Documents library" you'll see that it indicates how many locations the library includes.

If you click on the link you'll see that you have the option to add other folders inside the Library.

This option exists for the Pictures, Videos, and Music library folders as well. Just a neat little trick to make your files more easily accessible. This may come in handy when you're saving a lot of files and Windows defaults to the Library folder.

Sorry folks. The tips are going to be a little lame for a while. I am getting ready for a trial.
