Windows 11 24h2 cpu support for windows 10 to windows 11 upgrade
Hello everyone, Not sure if my Windows 10 PC could meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11 (doubt about the CPU), and I want to install Windows 11 version 24H2. With Microsoft's strict CPU requirements for Windows 11, I'm concerned whether my PC will still be eligible for the upgrade when 24H2 releases. What is Windows 11 24h2 cpu support? I know that initially, Windows 11 required 8th Gen Intel or Zen 2 AMD CPUs (with some exceptions), but not sure if the 24H2 update will change these requirements or enforce them even more strictly.
Windows 11 Task Manager Startup Impact Display Issue
In the "Startup" tab of Task Manager, some applications show their "Startup Impact" column as blank or "Not measured," instead of the usual Low, Medium, or High ratings. Need to understand whether this status is due to the system deliberately omitting measurements, a malfunction in the measurement mechanism, or restrictions from user permissions/settings. Also seeking methods to fix the display or obtain accurate impact assessments.Migrate to Win 11 before or after changing HDD?
Good morning Windows 10 offers me to upgrade to Windows 11, but I want to change my hard drive to upgrade to an SSD. Regarding the license, in what order should I take it? Another question, is the migration done via an update, or do you have to download an ISO?
Windows 25H2 update – S3 sleep mode compatibility issue
Windows 25H2 update – S3 sleep mode compatibility issue Dear Microsoft Engineering Team, hello! I recently discovered a long-standing bug in Windows 11: the computer sleep configuration is the system default, and when it goes to sleep or the second time or after restarting, it will be woken up for no reason during sleep. Personally, I think the compatibility of Windows 11 operating system with S3 sleep is not good, especially for desktops and laptops with 2.5G unlimited brand network cards and onboard 2.5G network cards, there are bugs such as misjudgment of network card signals. In addition, after sleep is awakened, the sound card still has a long silence problem, which can only be restored after a period of time. The program itself does not support the wake-up function after investigation, and the commonly used programs will not disturb sleep, and can eliminate program and hardware problems. I tried the following troubleshooting method 1. Try to reinstall the system and install it cleanly (it cannot be solved) 2: Try to install the latest version of the driver, or even update the BIOS to the latest version (no solution) 3: Replace hardware such as motherboard, memory, power supply, etc., including replacing other brands (unsolvable) 4: Contact Microsoft support and take measures to turn off the wake-on-NIC (temporarily solved, but it affects the wake-on-NIC function, which is inconvenient to use) At present, I don't think this measure is a good stopgap measure, and the measure has seriously affected my normal use of the network card wake-up function, and at the same time is highly dependent on the sleep function. In addition, when asking for help on social media, I saw that ASUS computer staff found sleep compatibility issues between Windows 11 and 2.5G network cards as early as 2024, and the ASUS onboard Intel i226-v network card motherboard could not enter sleep mode normally (model number ROG STRIX B760-G Gaming D4). At the same time, in order to confirm my judgment, I used the tenth generation desktop of my work unit to install the same system to make a comparison, this host is a 1G network card, after testing, the 1G network card in the default power setting (network card wake-up is turned on by default in the device manager power option), there is no above problem, and combined with the two motherboards I replaced before, both have a 2.5G network card on board, one model is (ASUS PRIME B760M-A), the other is (GIGABYTE). GAMING X DDR4 GEN5), and replace a new motherboard again, the problem is still the same, as long as any 2.5G network card on board of any brand of motherboard, including but not limited to self-installed 2.5G network card (network card wake-up is turned on by default in the device manager power options), there is a sudden misjudgment of Windows 11's network card wake-up signal during sleep and is woken up for no reason. At the same time, others have also reported that the motherboard of the 15th generation platform also has the problem of sleep suddenly being woken up by this system bug, so I would like to share my new discovery with you, looking forward to the letter from your behind-the-scenes engineering team, and at the same time, I would like to ask when this problem can be solved (that is, the problem of wake-up suddenly being woken up by a misjudgment signal when the 2.5G network card is turned on by default to wake up and enter sleep)? Thank you very much and look forward to your reply from your engineering team.
Windows 11 - Windows Update - Automatic restart after update
Hello We migrated our systems to Windows 11 24H2 from Windows 10. We encountered a problem with Windows 11 24H2 automatically restarting after installing an update. A message appears that the system will restart in 15 minutes. The user can click a different time. After a few minutes, the message that the system will restart appears again. How do I disable automatic restarting after installing the update? We have set the active hours for the system and the "No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations" option. When we had Windows 10, the system would not restart. After installing the December update for Windows 11, the system forced a restart. The problem occurs on all computers. How do I disable automatic restart? Update via Wsus. Windows Update configured via GPOHow to Remove the Alphabetical Index Bar Under All Apps in the Windows 11 Start Menu?

My phone storage is nearly full and I need to transfer my videos and photos to PC for freeing up the space. I am Looking for the best way to move over 30GB of photos and videos from my Android to my Windows PC without a USB cable. I need to keep the original files and quality, and I want to do it directly over my home Wi-Fi. I've considered cloud services like Google Photos, but re-downloading that much data to my PC seems inefficient. Bluetooth is far too slow for this volume. I need a direct wireless transfer method that's fast and reliable. What are your recommended to transfer files form Android to PC wirelessly without usb for a one-time bulk transfer this large? I'm on the same network and prefer something straightforward that won't compress my media. Thanks for any suggestions.
Is Enabling Secure Boot Mandatory for Windows 11 Installation?
The device supports TPM 2.0 but it is not enabled. Configuring Secure Boot poses challenges as it requires completely disabling CSM compatibility mode in the BIOS. Attempting to boot in UEFI-only mode results in a black screen issue with the graphics card. Please clarify: 1. Is Secure Boot an absolute requirement for installing Windows 11? 2. How can the black screen issue with the graphics card in UEFI mode and the difficulties in configuring Secure Boot be resolved?
Can Windows 11 Automatically Restrict File and Network Access for All Newly Downloaded Applications?
In the system settings, only options to restrict access for Microsoft Store applications can be found, with no way to limit non-Store applications downloaded from other sources. This means any program downloaded from the internet has full access to local files and the network by default, posing potential security risks. I hope the system can, like managing camera or location permissions, automatically restrict file read/write and network connection permissions for all newly added applications, and prompt the user for authorization when needed.
