Rename Tag: [attachments] into [email-attachments]
@Burgi you are right, mostly it refers to email attachments, but there are (very few) references to "attachments" with other software (e.g. Evernote). So what now? Add another tag (email-attachments) or change my (suggested) wiki entry to a broader definition?

@JourneymanGeek ok, thanks so much. I'll correct that (although not today, I'll have a client meeting I need to take care of)

@JourneymanGeek sorry, I don't mean to "complain". I know I still might do a lot of mistakes so I like to learn how to do it "right". If I have no idea how to correct them I'll ask, is that OK, or shouldn't I ask at all or should I just ask differently? Again, I don't care about "being" write or wrong, I'd just like to know "why" a person thinks I'm wrong, so I can improve on it the next time, by incorporating his views into my question/answer/edit etc. It's just about learning myself and being able to explain it to other user that experience the same problem.

@JourneymanGeek I fairly new to being active on this site, so I guess this might sound like a stupid question, what do you mean by "if tag wiki related things are filled up"? I assume you mean the description that pops up with the tag? Completely didn't consider that, so sorry! Good thing you mention it, next time I'll do a better job! I'll have to read up on how to do it an how to do a proper job on it. Also yes, you have the correct link, that is monarch.

Hi Ben, thanks for you're answer. I did the test as you described, otherwise I would have kept my statement that I used the same input method for creating and using the password. I thought it is obvious but I added this to my answer now, thanks for the suggestion!!! I haven't considered the system code page. Haven't really worked with that before. Is there a default code page for Windows 7?

What's the reasoning behind the rejection of this edit (#774829)?
Assuming my assessments are correct I'm pretty sure my edit would have been rejected because of too many mistakes. And you didn't answer my question: "what must have been included"? Please understand, it's a fine line between trying to fixing as many issues as possible but not changing unnecessary things (where the wording of the author would have been ok). And difficult to navigate especially for non native speakers. It would be good at least to have a rough threshold as an orientation.

Here some thoughts on you're (suggested) edits: "the full stop" in the first sentence. Was it really wrong before or more difficult to understand?; "System": the original capitalization (SYSTEM) is exactly the one windows uses; "comma" (before and): pretty sure this is wrong; "the drive": no actually you have the option to change ownership of root and subfolder separately from each other so the the previous version was more accurate; "VMWare": actually the correct capitalization is "VMware"; "comma" (before ran): pretty sure this is wrong;

@Ramhound ok, thanks for you examples I will go through them. Meanwhile, another question, you said my edit was superfluous because it is clear where the warning was coming from. I thought I explained in my question why it is not clear. Where exactly are you not agreeing with my reasoning?

What's the reasoning behind the rejection of this edit (#774829)?
@Ramhound Just to clarify, my question stated: what must be changed for the edit to be approved. So if I understand correctly unless I made all the edits you did you would have rejected my edit?
