  That is exactly why I'm asking....?????

  My thought is...if it has totally nothing to do with the game or whatever...why put it there??? All I need to hear from WGT is ......"Leave it be"....or choose one or the other for some particular reason,...bvry simple!

   

  I'd appreciate an logical response,.....to what some might consider a "dumb question!!"

  Answer to your reply ,from what we can gather it has to do w/ Wgt having partnership with them.

  or its part software program implemented for this game to work ?

   

     I'm guessing ,but don't quote me on that .  I Clicked on it does no effect on either one

   

  Right Click Zoom Feature - We got complaints that players games were being frozen or not loading correctly.  We have been investigating the issue and what we found is if a player used specific buttons on the right click that, the game could be stalled manually and players kicked out.  So we got rid of all the flash features that you were able to access via right clicking.

   

  Print Screen - Same reasoning as above

   

  Loop also was taken out mention above if this help U in any way ?

  The only thing that is even worth clicking on now is global settings. That takes you to the Adobe page where you can clear your flash cache.

  CD opens the Flash Player Settings Manager directly  where you can clear the cache.

  Gameshell and Siteshell versions are for information only.  It documents which version of WGT's code is running on your PC.   Similar to which version of Chrome or Firefox you are running.

  The other useful thing is "Settings". Click on it.   I always check enable hardware acceleration.  It can help smooth out your meter.

  IMO, no. I hardly ever clear mine but I also haven't bought new equipment or had weird things happen during play. That's pretty much the only time it's really necessary. Clearing it can cause slow game play as the game files you cleared out have to be put back by WGT. You also lose the game settings and have to reset them manually to what you had. Many players automatically clear the Flash cache after an update, just because. :-)
