facebook https: can it be reset thru Task Manager

I just started using the https setting on Facebook so that I would have a more private setting while on there. However, if you want to play their games you have to opt out of https and then when you are finished playing the game and go back to the home page, you are still out of https. Is there anyway to use Task Manager to set it up where if I hit the "Home" button on Facebook it will reset my settings to https, so that I don't have to manually go in each time and reset it to https? Any other ideas or remarks would be appreciated on the subject also. Thanks.

Welcome to Seven Forums getty17325. While I don't use Facebook myself, can't you re enable https through the Account Settings as described in the article?

Yes you can. You need to go through a few screens each time to do it. Since you could potentially have to do it often I was looking for a shortcut or automatic way to do it. I have never used task scheduler, though I have looked around in it. Thought it might be a possibility.

This is a Facebook setting, not a Windows 7 setting. I'm afraid it has to be done through the Facebook interface. A Guy
