Credentials when syncing folder using sync center Windows 10
Hi everyone, I have a problem with a number of computers that have sync center enabled. The issue is that those computers have the "Desktop" and "Documents" folders synchronized against a File Server. Well, when I connect through VPN, it stops being able to synchronize due to a problem with the user's credentials and I have found out that it is because it takes the credentials of the VPN instead of those of the user's session and of course, they are not the themselves. Is there a way to configure synchronization to work exclusively with the credentials of the user who is logged on to the computer and not take those of the VPN? I have to clarify that the VPN is configured through Windows' own VPN client. Thank you.FranMartiJan 22, 2026Copper Contributor789Views0likes1CommentWindows 10 keeps changing my logon picture
Windows 10 keeps changing my local logon picture to my wife's picture. My wife has a separate local logon on our desktop computers, as well as on our laptop computers. We both have our own separate Microsoft accounts based on our separate email address. Both of our Microsoft accounts display the correct picture. We both log onto whatever computer we are using locally, not through Microsoft. There are no pictures in the picture history directories. I would really like to know how to fix this. I've stopped sync on both Edge and Chrome. That seems to be causing other problems - freezing both browsers.Neuro-VISIONJan 22, 2026Copper Contributor1KViews0likes3CommentsEdge Bar is not available in Windows 10

What can I do, I spent about 7 hours on it this early a.m and tried to figure out something. All I got was could not find "C" and Admin securitys . Also looked liked, unknown network names. I did do some Diagnosie , and I think I sent the feedback to Microsoft. It was so hard to get any help from Dell or Microsoft because my Warrinty is out of date. Sorry for this long post, but I'm so fedup. Some of my App won't open up can't find "C" it says ???swimnut2003Jan 22, 2026Copper Contributor830Views0likes1CommentHow to Enable a Windows Vista-Style Application Interface in Windows 10?
Without using any third-party customization tools, I have observed a Windows Vista-style application interface on the taskbar of an official brand laptop/desktop running Windows 11. This feature appears to be a built-in official characteristic of Windows 11, but I cannot find any option to enable or configure it in the current device settings. Seeking specific activation methods and the official name of this feature.MikaeliopJan 22, 2026Iron Contributor13Views0likes0CommentsWhat is M365 Copilot in Windows 10?
A function or application entry named "M365 Copilot" has appeared in the system. I don't understand its specific functional positioning, and it prompts that a Microsoft account is required to use it.

Bonjour à tous, j’ai un PC qui ne répond pas aux exigences officielles (TPM 2.0 / CPU non supporté), mais j’aimerais quand même passer sous windows 11 pc non compatible sans me compliquer la vie. Je cherche une méthode simple, fiable, et si possible sans avoir à tout réinstaller de zéro. Idéalement, je voudrais éviter les manipulations trop risquées (trop de modifications du registre, scripts douteux, etc.). Si vous avez une méthode “facile” que vous avez testée vous-même, ou un guide clair pour installer / mettre à niveau vers Windows 11 sur une machine non compatible, je suis preneur. Merci d’avance pour votre aide !FinneasHayesJan 22, 2026Iron Contributor53Views0likes7CommentsWhere to buy a cheap windows 10 product to activate my windows 10?
My dad asked me to upgrade his computer from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and I did this successfully with the help of Windows 10 bootable USB. However, the Windows 7 product key he bought can't be used to activate Windows 10. Currently, he can't afford to buy a new genuine Windows 10 product from Microsoft as it is too pricey ($139 for Windows 10 Home and $199 for Windows 10 Pro.) Is there any way to buy Windows 10 product key at discounted price? If yes, kindly let me know as Windows 10 is almost uselessly without activation. Thank youFeckellipsisJan 21, 2026Iron Contributor4.9KViews0likes9CommentsCan I get a windows 10 activation key for free in 2025?
Hello everyone, I'm currently using Windows 10 with activation watermark notice all the times and this is very annoying. I would like to get a windows 10 activation key for free without purchasing a license. Are there any free activation methods like through Microsoft promotions or educational programs? I've heard about KMS activation or digital licenses from hardware upgrades, but I'm not sure what's safe and legal. If anyone knows a proper way to activate Windows 10 for free in 2025?GodANarcissistJan 21, 2026Iron Contributor21KViews4likes8CommentsMechanics of how Windows 10 Networking determines when to switch to using the Domain Windows Defende
Hi Some of our Windows 10 Desktops are not switching to the Domain firewall profile (Unidentified Network and public firewall profile), whereas others are. Can anyone point me to any sites or links that go into detail what Windows steps through to determine if a Desktop should be on the Domain firewall profile. I'm finding a lot of high-level info regarding Network Location Awareness, the NLA service, the network adapter, LDAP etc., but nothing in detail that's really helps us troubleshoot in a systematic way. I've found few snippets like where in the registry the Domain Name is stored, NLA identifies a network based on the MAC address of the default gateway, an LDAP query is done to port 389 of the Domain Controller etc. I've also found things we can try such as restarting NLA and/ or setting it up as auto (delayed) - neither of which works, adding the DNS suffix to the network adapter, disabling ipv6 - works till a reboot and then reverts back to Identified Network. If anyone can point me to specific details on the mechanics of how it works, that would be a big help and allow us to troubleshoot in a more systematic way. Any info would be appreciated.
