Screen turns 'grainy'
Every now and then, usually when I am looking at a You Tube video, the screen suddenly turns a grey color, like a grainy black and white tv. Can't get out of it no matter what buttons I press except for the power button. As soon as I hit again the screen id fine again. What could be causing this ? I am on Windows 11, using an Asus Vivobook laptop. Pic of screen supplied -Locked out of EVERYTHING that requires admin rights
Hoping for some help here, as I'm totally lost now! For many years....have setup my PC using netplwiz to allow login without password....it's been great! I've always used an Admin account....and it has worked for me (No other users have access) A couple of days ago....I foolishly decided to drop the admin account, and take the recommended alternative offerred in ControlPanel/User accounts WHY I DID THIS....I WILL NEVER KNOW!!!! Now find that I can't do anything requiring Admin privileges......and the YES button is missing in any Account Control windows that come up....only NO is visible. Please help.........
Will removing everything delete files from D drive?
I plan to fresh reset everything in my laptop. I don’t really mind anything being deleted in my C: Drive with windows installed. Everything important like personal files is on my D: Drive. If i choose the “remove everything” option will it delete files from my D: drive tooLogin in as admin account but still needs password of another admin account
When I'm using the regular account and something needs admin authorization, it asks for the first account's password, but I just have the password of the other admin account. Yes, I can click "more options" and select the other admin account, but that’s really annoying.deleting duplicate files the same
I had an ASUS puter crash and lost many files. A tech guy got many of them back. Meanwhile I bought an HP, but still have both. I transferred many files into the new HP. They both have terrabyte HDs. I also have a remote Seagate terrabyte drive as BU. When I looked at Tools in CC-leaner, I discovered that I have hundreds of duplicate files. The paths are exactly the same in many of them. I want to know if I look at them and there is no differences, can I delete, say 19 of 20 safely? I think there are about a thousand in there, text, pictures etc. The names, creation dates and sizes are identical in the paths. URLs? Because the HDs are big I could live with them but the waste bugs me.How to recover SD card after format?
HELP!!! A few days ago, I accidentally deleted some important photos and videos from my Samsung SD card while trying to transfer them to my Windows 11 laptop. I thought the transfer was complete, so I formatted the card to free up space—but later realized that not everything was copied over. And stupidly, I didn’t make any backups. I did try using Windows File Recovery, and it did recover some files—but unfortunately, most of them won’t open properly. The recovered photos seem corrupted, and the videos won’t play at all. Not sure if I used the right settings, or if the files are just too far gone. Is there any free recovery software for Windows that actually works with SD cards? If not, I’m okay with using a paid tool. Really appreciate any help or suggestions!Emoji Icon Popup 🫶
Just updated to running Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 27858. 🥳 I saw the new emoji icon on my task bar, when I clicked on it, the emoji icon disappeared. After a reboot, it's now showing the instruction popup. I will reboot again & might get the emoji icon's popup I am looking for. Super-handy emoji icon feature by Windows, I appreciate it. 👏
