windows 10 Windows Calendar/Parameters Animations
by Guest костяворонин- 0 replies
- 7 views
Hello, I have a problem. Animations in Windows settings and the Windows calendar have disappeared. Previously, when I hovered over dates in the calendar, other dates would light up, but now this no longer happens. Why? I recently reinstalled some drivers, and it seemed to temporarily fix the issue, but I’m sure this shouldn’t be happening. Continue reading...

windows 7 IS THERE A PC TO MONITOR CABLE THAT CONNECTS FROM THE COMPUTER USB PORT TO MONITOR HDMI PORT?
by Guest FIVEVICTOR- 0 replies

I would like know if there is a cable to connect a new HP monitor that has 1 Display Port 1.2 and 1 HDMI Port 1.4 to an offline in use every day 10 year old+ HP Pavilion AiO Windows 7 Home Premium computer that still has 915GB storage but only has 4 USB ports, no HDMI. In checking around I've seen USB-C and USB cables. The USB-C seems to be rounded. The ports on the AiO are regular rectangular shaped USB. My current online PC is a HP Windows 10 laptop that will be replaced with a just purchased Windows 11 AiO. Thanks. Continue reading...

by Guest Timothy4891- 0 replies

Recently I lost my Microsoft account and I'm pretty sure there no way of getting it back. But when I set up my PC, I used my Microsoft account that is now hacked, so I'm wondering if I should reset it to be safe. They changed the email to the hacked account and when I tried to sign in it said that a account with the email didn't exist so I made a new one with the same email.So what I'm wondering 1. Should I reset my PC? And 2. If I do will it cause problem since I used the same email because when I tried to sign in with (I didn't reset my PC) it says there's already an account with the sam Continue reading...

I was recording my screen earlier today for a 40 minute meeting, and it stopped recording 15 minutes into the meeting. I'm so annoyed since this is the second time this has happened (there was an error before that blew up the entire recording just 2 weeks ago). I can swear I didn't even hit stop or pause before then since I was mostly just talking and didn't even touch anything. I then hit stop recording - the red square - ONLY at the end. So why was my recording cut short? I don't understand. How can I prevent this from happening, or even better, recover what was lost? I have more than enough Continue reading...

Hello!Yesterday I started experiencing these weird crashes, that don't provide any information what actually happened.I tried reading the Event logs myself, but they seem pretty complicated so I'll leave them here. Maybe someone smarter can read a simple issue from these.It seems to be happening pretty randomly, but if it starts, I can't use the PC for another good 20 minutes, or else it just instantly reboots again. I'm really happy to give any further information, sorry if I am missing some obvious things!I am running:Asrock b450m-hdv r4.0Ryzen 7 5800x with a tower cooler (not stock)Radeon R Continue reading...

Microsoft is telling me the picture below is of Botswana. This is clearly incorrect, even I know this is the Rocky Mountains. It gives a really bad impression of Microsoft when literal falsehoods are presented to the user directly via built-in OS behaviour.I saw an answer to a similar question where Microsoft claimed any such fault lies with the image owner. A few issues here:1) Despite searching, I could find no online sources for this image which mis-label it as Botswana. I found hundreds of sources which correctly labelled it. W11 provides no link to the actual source of the image used. Out Continue reading...

windows 11 Windows 11 text scaling does not affect the whole system
by Guest SamTextIssue- 0 replies
- 7 views
When I change the scale of the text or text size it changes correctly in most parts of the system, but does not affect text in file explorer, or on the desktop, or in right-click menus, among others. I have tried every suggestion I could find online but the text size for the locations I mentioned stays the same small size. You can see from the attached screenshot how some parts of the file explorer have large text (correctly scaled to 150%, as I have chosen in the settings) while the text for the items inside the folder have remained very small. Nothing I do in the settings will change its siz Continue reading...

I have recently done a fresh re-install of windows (which happened to install 24H2 - Build 26100.2314) and after installing and updating all drivers I am getting a consistent BSOD around 5 minutes after doing a cold boot of the system.Once the PC restarts from the BSOD, it does not crash again unless it is powered off or put to sleep. This seems to happen very consistently on every cold boot.I have ran sfc /scannow and it saw no issues. I have also updated windows and all the drivers that I know of, to their latest respective versions (reinstalling any that I can).I am on the latest windows ve Continue reading...

windows 11 Windows account, unable to activate.
by Guest Paul Dewhurst1- 0 replies

I have had a windows 10 Pro licence for ages (7 years ish), and I have just upgraded to Windows 11, as soon as I upgraded the PC motherboard and processor. I am now unable to activate windows. To add complexity to the problem there is something messed up with the accounts as I have my admin account and a work account which I used when I was working from home, I no longer work at this business but I think it has messed up the account holder information and maybe the licence holder. I don;t have any documentation on the product key from that long ago, any ideas how I can sort this out? Continue reading...
