As you can assume, English is not my natural language. Apologies in advance, if it is bad and poor, and please be indulgent.

Though in my case it is not very likely, that it someday happens:

Feb 8	revised	Identical executable files with different names in MiKTeX small formatting change
Feb 8	comment	Identical executable files with different names in MiKTeX I’m glad as supposedly a lot other people that you joint TeX.SE! (On the other hand this is bad for me and some others, because from now on we’re not authorized anymore to answer MiKTeX questions.) ;-)
Feb 8	revised	LuaLaTeX + fontspec: Font not found deleted 2 characters in body
Feb 8	revised	LuaLaTeX + fontspec: Font not found deleted 4 characters in body; edited title
Feb 8	revised	Including pdf figures in Latex document using TexnicCenter link added
Feb 8	comment	Identical executable files with different names in MiKTeX OK, but on the other hand the question is not about `latex` vs. `pdflatex` but about e.g. `miktex-pdftex.exe` vs. `pdftex.exe`, that actually seem to be dupes.
Feb 8	comment	Identical executable files with different names in MiKTeX Almost forgotten: As far as I can tell, they also behave exactly, for example they print out the same version string.
Feb 8	comment	Identical executable files with different names in MiKTeX This can IMHO correctly only be answered by Christian Schenk, the MiKTeX developer.
Feb 8	comment	Identical executable files with different names in MiKTeX Sorry, but this is not an answer to the question … The topic here is MiKTeX the most (I guess) widespread TeX distribution for Windows (though there is an experimental Linux version).
Feb 8	comment	TeXstudio: How to associate tex syntax color scheme to non tex file? I guess, you tried to highlight the `.stex` in the ini entry, but as you can see the markup does not work there. If you added this extension in an own line, then this is very likely the cause of the issue. On the other hand in the file to be highlighted there must some known code that can be highlighted.
Feb 8	revised	TeXstudio: How to associate tex syntax color scheme to non tex file? added 13 characters in body; edited title
Feb 7	comment	EPS figure not showing up in PDF file (TeXnicCenter) See Including pdf figures in Latex document using TexnicCenter and How to compile a document with EPS images using TeXnicCenter?. And in addition to Ulrike: You have a superfluous call of the AMS packages. You can safely remove the second line with them (but letting them in will not produce any error).
Feb 7	revised	EPS figure not showing up in PDF file (TeXnicCenter) deleted 3 characters in body; edited title
Feb 5	revised	Usage and modification of xcookybooky changed link, removed thanks and greeting
Feb 4	comment	How do I set the document body to be Times New Roman and Section headings to be Arial? You do not need XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX: You can use one of the type1 equivalents or just install the package `winfonts` (the ttf versions have to be installed for this).
Feb 3	revised	Which font is the most comfortable for on-screen viewing? small typo fixes
Feb 3	comment	Which is the appropriate inputenc option for Slovak? After the title edit your answer is not wrong anymore. But for German and other West-European languages in Windows the charset is “windows-1252”/“cp-1252”, and for this there’s also an alias `ansinew` as `inputenc` option.
Feb 3	revised	Which is the appropriate inputenc option for Slovak? edited body
Feb 3	comment	What to do with 237 eps files? @tohecz and @hsmyers `\ifpdf`, `\ifluatex`, `\ifxetex`. See also packages `iftex`, `ifpdf`, `ifluatex` and `ifxetex`.
