24H2 + HP Pro Mini 400 G9. NIC disconnects, doesn't reconnect.
We have a batch of HP Pro Mini 400s and we've put 24H2 on them. They have the latest (as of 2 weeks ago when I rebuilt the driver stores) firmware and drivers. We've tested 24H2 on these and various other bits of hardware lying around to iron out any quirks......or so we thought. Some of them (1-2 in a room of 31) will quietly drop the network connection and not resume it while they're actively being used. The switch doesn't log anything (disconnect, for example) or bad traffic on the port. There's no pattern so far on when it happens. They're connected to Aruba switching (gig PoE+, loop-protect and spanning-tree on) and the patch leads in the rooms have been inspected and replaced as part of the refit. Testing the network jacks shows no issues.Windows 11 is way more responsive after turning off core isolation
I disabled core isolation ( memory integrity) because it was slowing down my virtual box performance ( you can't use 3d acceleration ) so I turned it off. Now windows is way more responsive , snappy . Laptop specs Ryzen 3 7 gen U processor Amd 610 igpu 8gb ramWindows was unable to complete the format? Help!
Hey guys. I’m trying to reformat my USB drive to make it a bootable disk, but I keep getting errors. (SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Go USB) In File Explorer, it shows “Windows was unable to complete the format”. I tried diskpart with clean, create partition primary, and format, but it just says “Format failed”. Does anyone have suggestions on what might be wrong or how I can forcefully reformat it?

My kids deleted a couple of contacts from my iPhone and I am unable to find them from iCloud. Fortunately, I have an activate iPhone backup with iTunes on my PC. But itunes does not allow me to view or pull off contacts from the backup file. Does anyone know a simple way to let me extract contacts from iPhone backup with itunes on a Windows PC? I tested two popular free apps recommended by search engine but both of them don't support the latest iOS 18 backup.
How are people blocking software/apps in windows 11
Well Software Restriction Policy (SRP) is deprecated since windows 10. When we try to use AppLocker we get the blue pop-ups to say software has been blocked (but the only way to see what software is in the Event Log), and there's no way to hide this. We've found it's unusable for exam accounts, because there's so much that is blocked. We didn't have this issue with SRP, because it did it all silently. What are other people using to block software in Windows 11 ?Applocker Win11 24H2
Anyone else having any strange issues with Applocker on 24H2? Our exam laptops were all recently moved from Win 10 22H2 > Win 11 24H2 & we keep noticing that on start-up we get the error dialog box. We can close this dialog box & it does not appear again. Checking event viewer, nothing seems to be being blocked in any of the sections (exe, msi, script..) Our exam user accounts do also have the policy configured " Run only specified windows applications " which could be playing a part? But you would think this would present the different error dialog boxCopying Files to Intune Device failing
