How to Mirror iPhone to PC on Windows 11?
Hello everyone, I got a new iPhone 15 Pro Max and I'm trying to find a reliable way to mirror my iPhone's screen onto my PC running Windows 11. I've seen several methods online, but I'm not sure which ones are the most effective and user-friendly. Ideally, I'm looking for a solution that offers high-quality mirroring without too much lag, and it would be great if it also supports audio transmission. Has anyone here successfully mirrored their iPhone to a Windows 11 PC? I'm open to both free and paid solutions, as long as they are reliable and straightforward to use. Thank you in advance for your suggestions!WeameqiuNov 04, 2024Copper Contributor315Views0likes11CommentsScreen Mirroring (wireless casting) on TV stopped working
Hello, for the last month or so wireless casting (Windows key + K) on our Samsung TV stopped working with all our Windows 11 laptops (we have 70). However, it's still working with a Windows 10 laptop that isn't connected to our domain...it's also working with Apple Airplay so the issue is not the TV. (I did a factory reset on the TV just to make sure anyway). Whenever we try to connect a Windows 11 laptop, we can approve the connection on the TV and it tries to connect for like 10 seconds but ultimately it fails and says that it can't connect (yes it's on the same WIFI network.) I don't know why it suddenly stopped working, we haven't changed any policy recently. Could it be a Windows update? Does anyone have any idea?BMERCIER45Nov 04, 2024Copper Contributor24KViews0likes14CommentsMy laptop screen started some sort of jittering

Hello, I would like to know how to restore the option of selecting the date in the searching options menu in the explorer of windows. It seems that it has disappeared on its own for about 1 month and only offers me these choices as shown in the attached photo 1. I have searched but no option has been able to include the famous option. Is there a connection with the indexing which is suspended as shown in image 2.Even the windows toolbar for indexing errors didn't help me to restore the function, Please i just want to recover this useful function by just clicking on the calendar and choose the file to display by specific date.The other options like putting in search bar dates does not respond to my needs. And i am totally suprised why or how the option has disappeared from the menu since 1 month.It displays only:today, yesterday, last month, etc but the calendar with choosing is no more availbale?! Thank you for helping me to set it up again please!fredoNov 04, 2024Occasional Reader38Views0likes0CommentsHow to bypass windows 11 system requirements during installation on an old Laptop?
Hi, I have a Dell XPS 13 laptop bought in 2016. It comes withIntel Core i5-5200U, 4GB RAM and 128 SSD. When I am trying to install Windows 11 from a USB drive on this laptop, an error pops up and says this pc can't run Windows 11. Is there any way to skip this andbypass windows 11 system requirements during installation? This is a test computer and I have a complete backup of important staff. I want to give a try on Windows 11 instead of the old Windows 8.1 on this old laptop. Unfortunately, I don't have enough budget to build a new PC that meets all the system requirements of Windows 11. Much appreciated if you some one could shed some lights on bypassingwindows 11 system requirements during installation. [Updates on Mar 18]: For quick reference, I managed to install Windows 11 on my old laptop with the help of WinBootMate app suggested byuser Menda380.It has a built-in module to bypass the requirements.Doncizks2725Nov 04, 2024Copper Contributor280KViews0likes36CommentsIs anyone else encountering games crashing upon launching in Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 24H2?
Hello everyone. I recently upgraded to Windows 11 24H2 when it was released to the Release Preview channel. However, I've been experiencing consistent crashes with some games upon launch. This issue is only occurring with a select few games, including Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Origins, Far Cry, and Need for Speed Unbound (based on my testing). When launching these games, they appear in the task manager, crash, and sometimes remain "stuck" consuming 20 Kb of memory until I either log out or reboot. While some games start working again after a reboot, others continue to crash persistently regardless of what troubleshooting steps I take, even after performing a clean OS installation or updating drivers. Has anyone else encountered this problem? I'm using an NVIDIA GPU. Has this issue been addressed in the latest cumulative update?JeffreycheesNov 04, 2024Copper Contributor2.9KViews1like6Comments- 55Views0likes1Comment
