Click the OK button."This does not work in Win11, the checkbox is greyed out.I have refreshed explorer.exe. Any registry entry to fix thi Continue reading...

by Guest Ali_058- 0 replies

Hello, good day. I bought Windows 11 Pro retail version from a site that is a Microsoft partner, but the price was very low and I only received the license key. Now my question is, is it possible to know if this key previously belonged to someone else, or if a personal account was hacked and the key was sold to me, or if it is really a retail version, or for example, will it not be installable after three installations? How can I check the license key? Continue reading...

Good morning everyone, for the second time last night my printer printed (by activating itself) documents concerning a tenant in another apartment building where I live. The printer is connected via Wi-Fi on a network with a password. I cannot understand how this is possible. Today I will change the password, but if I cannot give a rational explanation for the incident I will have the doubt that these "infiltrations" can happen again, because even now my network has a password (the one assigned by the operator and printed on the router) and yet it was not enough Continue reading...

I purchased a new computer for Black Friday, and as I was setting it up I noticed an odd program that is enabled as a startup task. I have not done anything with the computer other than turn it on and go through the initial setup process, including an initial round of windows and driver updates, and backed up a recovery image... so I doubt any of my own behavior got me infected. But I wanted to check with the Microsoft team to see if this is an expected as I am not well-versed on Windows 11 which came with the new computer.The process in question is "ES4.RunTask (4)", which includes four subpr Continue reading...

I don’t know how to reverse that response but I hope she reads this and accepts my most humblest of apologies. Following is my post.Hello to the Brains trust. I first searched this question but after some time could not find the answer that I was after. Quite simply, I am wondering if Windows 11 or if not some other effective but less expensive software Continue reading...
