windows 10 Windows Start->Power button not working
by Guest Gabe_S628- 0 replies
- 4 views
The Start menu software power button, which usually brings up the options to Sleep, Restart or Shut Down, does nothing when clicked. The buttons on the same panel (Settings, Pictures, Files, MS Account) all work fine. This persists through computer restarts and Windows Explorer restarts. This doesn't seem to be correlated with a Windows Update. Currently, the only way to control my computer's power state is Windows+R "shutdown -x" commands. Computer information:Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64 (KB5046613)I'd love to post a picture but the forum is throwing an error whichever way I try lol. Continue reading...

windows 10 Wifi often disconnect and disappear
by Guest Laurentius Evan Wijaya- 0 replies
- 7 views
Hi guys, I have a complaint that my wifi often disconnects, even the wifi option often disappears on my laptop. I changed the QoS on my wifi settings from WMM to SSID, because in my experience SSID QoS is less delayed than WMM, and since I changed these settings, my laptop wifi often crashes. If I change QoS to WMM again, the problem is gone, but when playing games, I will experience a slight delay, which will make me often lose in playing games, the games I play are Counter Strike and Dota 2. When I set QoS to SSID, there is almost no delay in the game, but somehow my wifi often disconnects, Continue reading...

Fortnite started doing this about a day ago because it was working perfectly fine before that. Now, when I try to launch it by double-clicking it from my desktop, it crashes my computer and sends me to the BSOD. I have tried deleting the game and downloading it multiple times, but it hasn't done anything. Its done this before but randomly one day started working I'm wondering if there is a permanent solution.

windows 11 Not letting me create a system restore point. Says its disabled by my system admin. (windows 11)
by Guest Brett Butler2- 0 replies

So, a while back I accidently deleted my audio drivers, so I went to HP Support Assistant (app) and tried to get them back, but when trying to update/reinstall the drivers it said I needed a system restore point. So I looked up how to get there and it said it is disabled by my system admin even though my account is marked as an admin. So what I did is found one on the web and installed it. Its been working fine but its still janky and I wish I just had the actual ones. There's also a lot of other things wrong with my windows, I don't know if my windows 11 is installed correctly or what. All I Continue reading...

windows 11 How can I get File Explorer (Windows 11) to sort the subfolders at the top when searching? Suddenly, it's listing folders among the files.
by Guest PamelaBreedlove- 0 replies
- 7 views
In File Explorer, when searching, sometimes it lists the subfolders among the files when it used to list all subfolders at the top and then all files below it. This first screenshot is from a font bundle that I recently extracted. I did a search for all files (using . in the search box), and it's sorted by name. I can't find anything in options that would be causing this, but it's not useful to me this way. Note: this is on a new laptop. On my other laptop (2 years older but also Windows 11) I have searched folders with fonts many times and have never seen it sorted like this, so I don't think Continue reading...

I recently got an asus creator Q540 laptop, after turning it on and loading the windows 11 that comes with it everything seems to work fine, the photos app preview pictures with original display quality but after the necessary update then my photos app would begin to preview washed out images, the color quality drastically reduces which I’m still finding it hard to understand. But after downloading a third party photo preview software, the software worked perfectly well. Even my photoshop, capture one and photo mechanic softwares are unable to provide original display quality, And I’m also una Continue reading...

Hello Microsoft Support,I have been experiencing frequent BSODs on my system, occurring roughly every 40 minutes since early December 2024. My system was custom-built in 2022, with the GPU installed in February 2024. I have already reinstalled Windows 11 Pro 64-bit via USB, but the BSODs persist.System Specifications:CPU: Intel Core i7 11700KMotherboard: ASUS PRIME Z590-P (BIOS 2002)GPU: MSI SLIM RTX 4080 SuperRAM: 32GB DDR4 @ 1600MHzStorage: 1TB Western Digital SSD (OS Drive)I suspect it could potentially be related to power delivery or a hardware issue, but I am unsure.

As the title suggests, I have internet connection just fine, but as soon as I boot up a game on Steam that requires connection to game servers, my internet drops. I get the no internet connection icon in the taskbar, and when leaving the troubleshooter open I get "the DHCP server isn't responding" which sometimes then turns into "can't reach the default gateway". I have done some searching and found similar issues but not one like mine, so adding it here for help.Here are some of the solutions I have tried as a result of my search on various threads, all of which have not worked. Some have pro Continue reading...
