windows 11 health check doesn't recognize cpu
Hello, Recently I was trying to upgrade to W11 and I ran the PC Health Check. I get all green check marks except for CPU. The interesting part is that my cpu is I7-7700K AND is listed under the Supported CPU list for Windows 10 22h2. I don't get it. What am I missing? Anyone has some suggestion?SolvedpishtikeFeb 12, 2025Copper Contributor104Views0likes9CommentsWindows 11 Suddenly Started to Resize and Move my Open Windows Position
How to fix that? Even IDM that I always put in the right corner would be moved on the left side of the screen, never had that problem? It seems to appeared after upgrading to 24H2. It usually happens after monitor turns screen off after some time, but I think that I saw that happening even randomly.SolvedAsainnaFeb 12, 2025Iron Contributor495Views0likes7Comments- Allison_DeleonEFeb 12, 2025Iron Contributor23Views0likes3Comments
How can I automatically update all drivers Windows 11?
I just upgraded my computer to Windows 11 a few days ago, and found that some hardware drivers are not the latest, such as the graphics card driver is still the old version, the keyboard occasionally fails, and the Bluetooth device cannot be connected. I guess the driver is incompatible. I want to update all drivers to the latest version at once, but it is too troublesome to download them one by one manually, and I don’t want to bother. I tried the update that comes with Windows, but I feel that it is not updated comprehensively, and many drivers are still old versions. Some people on the Internet recommend using driver management software, but I am worried that installing these tools will bring a lot of advertisements or randomly install drivers. Is there any simple way to automatically update all drivers in Windows 11, preferably an official or reliable tool? How do the big guys deal with driver updates? Please share your experience!AndrewCuomoFeb 12, 2025Copper Contributor89Views0likes6CommentsWindows 11 Networking fails asking for Credentials
The issue I'm having is with Windows 11 networking and accessing a computer on the LAN using it's UNC name, which in my case is my primary computer running Windows 10 (PROMETHEUS) and my secondary computer (SORCERESS) running Windows 11. Both computers sign in at startup using the same Microsoft Account. The trouble I'm having is if I open Explorer in Windows 11 using <WINDOWS>+<E> (or via a desktop or taskbar shortcut) and then directly enter "\\prometheus" into the address bar, it will sometimes allow access to the computer on the network, and other times it will ask for login credentials and fail: If on the rare occasion that the connection is made using the UNC path, and I can map a network drive, the network drive might not automatically reconnect at startup because of the same error. But if I enter the IP Address for PROMETHEUS as "\\192.168.1.3", then I can browse the network without problems and correctly maps network drives: One might think this is a configuration issue on the Windows 10 machine regarding file sharing. I do not believe so, as other devices on the network (mixed between Windows 10 and Android) can access the PROMETHEUS computer without issues using either the UNC Name "\\prometheus" or the IP address "\\192.168.1.3". This problem about credentials appears only when I'm trying to access PROMETHEUS from SORCERESS which is running Windows 11:DzomlijaFeb 12, 2025Copper Contributor68KViews0likes9Comments"Expand to current folder" doesn't work in File Explorer (Windows 11 versions 22H2, 23H2 and 24H2)
The "Expand to current folder" command in File Explorer in Windows 11 does not work for most Quick Access items in the navigation pane. Is Microsoft aware of this issue, and if so, when do we expect a fix this problem? The bug appears to be a widespread problem report by many users over the past year or so. The problem first occurred with Windows version 22H2, and still exists even with the latest update, Windows version 24H2. The recently monthly updates have not resolved this issue either. Although the February 2025 update is supposed to introduce important fixes to File Explorer, there is no mention on Microsoft's Update website about a fix to the "Expand to current folder" bug. I only recently purchased a new computer several months ago and right away I noticed the problem. The "Expand to current folder" command simply doesn't work anymore for any of the quick access items (i.e., Documents, Pictures, Music, etc., and one's user folders) in the left navigation pane. It only works if one clicks on Quick Access items that points to folders on the C:\ drive and other drives. The only recourse for the time being is to choose the option to "Show all folders", which works, but is rather awkward to use and has its own issues. Despite users' attempts to report the problem to Microsoft, it seems there has not yet been any acknowledgment from Microsoft about this bug and whether a fix is planned. If other users are experiencing this same issue, I can only suggest that users report this issue to Microsoft. It's rather unfortunate that the "Expand to current folder" doesn't work anymore like it did in Windows 10. It was very useful and saved a lot of time.dschmidFeb 12, 2025Occasional Reader14Views0likes0CommentsForgot iPhone Passcode. How to Unlock iPhone without password in Windows 11?
I recently found myself locked out of my iPhone because I forgot iPhone passcode. Unfortunately, I don't have access to any backups that could help me restore the phone. I need to reset the iPhone to regain access, but every method I come across seems to require the passcode. Here’s a little background: The iPhone is mine, and I can provide proof of ownership if necessary. It’s running the latest version of iOS. I don't have access to a computer with iTunes installed, so I need a solution that works without iTunes or preferably without a computer at all. Is there a reliable way to reset iPhone without the passcode, even if it means erasing all data? I understand that security features are important, but I’m stuck and need help.MissouriOzarkFeb 12, 2025Copper Contributor5.3KViews1like8CommentsWindows 11 cold boot keyboard issues.
Hi, I recently upgraded a Lenovo T470 from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 11 Pro. Everything works on the upgrade except the keyboard on a cold boot. From a power off state if I turn the laptop on when it launches into Windows 11 the keyboard and the eraserpoint mouse do not work; the touchpad does work. If I warm boot the machine the keyboard and eraserpoint mouse work fine until the machine is turned off again. I've tried changing drivers and going through all of the troubleshooting with the keyboard but to no avail. Outside of windows (pre-boot & BIOS) the keyboard works fine. Previously in Windows 10 there were never any issues with the keyboard. I have compared drivers with like systems running Windows 10. The driver is the same Standard PS/2 keyboard. Any help is appreciated. Regards, LarzukLarzukFeb 11, 2025Occasional Reader26Views0likes0Comments
