Hello, I have 2 Microsoft accounts - one which my computers appear to be linked to (it appears within Settings) - I can make another email primary so that appears instead within settings.However my other Microsoft account is where my Office365 account is hosted (family pack) and we have a terabyte of one drive files. Is it possible to merge the two accounts, or do I need to switch the office 365 package into the other account? Would I lose one drive data?ThanksBrian Continue reading...

Hi! Before starting, I want to clear out that I am not very fluent in english.I only have a small doubt. When I am using my android phone and I enter from the google search engine to a page that is from google itself, such as the search history, does google send my account login or data to the web browser that opens the link (firefox, edge, etc.)? I know this is very specific, but I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance. Have a nice day. Continue reading...

Hello, I got some problems. I was having some issues with blue screen, which I was trying to fix ( Memory managment error, I believe some drivers problem, or maybe nor ), when I found some information that I should run memory checking tool. I did just that, but after rebooting my pc just got a black screen. I've seen that it is common thing, and I can just reload my pc. After that it restarted properly, was still having memory issues. Then after a few restarts suddenly my monitor does not load the logging in process. My guess is that the memory checking process is running, but I cannot see it. Continue reading...

I received notification saying "restart your PC so that updates can be installed". I clicked on restart in settings. When updates had been installed, I had a choice of various screensavers (none of which I like, or want to keep). How can I find my previous screensaver? Help Please! Continue reading...

I set up the File History backup on my Windows 10 PC a few years ago to save the history info on my NAS. I think the save is working because I can see on the NAS my Documents folder structure and files like <filename>(<date and time>). But on the Windows 10 PC, when I use the "Previous Versions" tab in the File Properties it tells me "There are no previous versions available." If I click the History icon in the ribbon of File Manager, it tells me "File History is saving copies of your files for the first time." What is going wrong and how do I fix it?Thanks Continue reading...

I extracted files from a windows 10 iso to get a new copy of winre.wim. (I had done a system clone to a new hard drive and it didn't reproduce my recovery partition.) I got the file but now I have a directory full of extra system files that I simply can not delete. I have tried changing the directory and file owner several times. I have tried a number of command line solutions all in a cmd window as administrator. I have logged in as Admin. Everything I try results in an "Access is denied." error.How can I get rid of these files??? I'd prefer a solution that doesn't use some non-windows Continue reading...

I am encountering an issue with Windows on BootCamp. When I start the computer, it enters a loop where it displays "Diagnosing your PC" and "Applying fixes." Afterward, I am redirected to a blue troubleshooting screen with options like Startup Repair, Startup Settings, Command Prompt, System Image Recovery, System Restore, and Uninstall Updates.Here are the issues I’m facing with these options:Startup Repair repeatedly returns to the "Diagnosing your PC" screen without resolving the problem.Startup Settings allows me to restart and choose Safe Mode or Safe Mode with Networking, but both option Continue reading...

Greetings to you all.Today i decided to upgrade to windows 11. The problem that brought me here is that secure boot must be enabled in order to do so. I have found out how to do it through Asrock FAQ but in the end windows aren't booting and i'm being thrown into BIOS. That seems to be because of the drive being MBR instead og GPT. I am trying to use the mbr2gpt tool but i get the following error:MBR2GPT: Attempting to convert disk 0 MBR2GPT: Retrieving layout of disk MBR2GPT: Validating layout, disk sector size is: 512 bytes Cannot find OS partition(s) for disk 0The thing that stops the proce Continue reading...

I've been getting like a BSOD every hour or so and it's incredibly frustrating.I made a ticket a few days ago here and followed his directions. I updated the BIOS, and made sure I had the latest AMD chipset drivers. I was still crashing so I tried the older chipset drivers that I would of had when I bought the PC. Still crashing after that.I'd just like to know what I need to do to have this problem fixed. I can replace the motherboard and CPU if necessary, I'm just afraid of taking those steps and then still crashing constantly.So if someone could tell me if this is definitely a hardware i Continue reading...

Hello. I have an old laptop which my father installed windows 11 on. I saw that the laptop was struggling quite a bit running windows 11 so I decided to degrade back to windows 10. I have a 64 gb usb with windows 10 installation media so I plugged it in and made a fresh install. The installation went smoothly and windows 10 started running. I switched off the laptop and removed the USB thinking it's job was over but no. The laptop won't boot windows without the USB now. If I don't have the USB plugged in, I go into a bios loop where booting up the hdd or anything else won't work and I'm stuck Continue reading...

I've been working on writing a custom USB audio speaker device which is currently working when I use a Linux OS with the device. For ease of use reasons, I tried testing the device on Windows 10 and have been unable to get any audio through the device on Windows. Windows device manager recognizes the device as a Sound, video and game controller device and an Audio inputs and outputs device, and shows no errors or warnings with starting the device. However, it is unable to produce any sound. Using a USB traffic analyzer software, I noticed that Windows is not sending a Set Interface request to Continue reading...

This is about OneDrive, but I don't see it as an available category. I assume OneDrive is just considered part of Windows?In the past couple weeks, OneDrive has done a series of strange and alarming things I don't recall it ever doing before in many years of use. My apologies for the length of this post, but a lot of weird things have happened in a short time. I've numbered events below in order of strange occurrence. Note: the official Microsoft OneDrive release notes page hasn't yielded any relevant information, in part because--as the page itself openly disclaims--updates to that page may l Continue reading...
