Anyone know a good file shredder for mac for permanent data deletion?
I have been a long time Windows users and my mom asks me if I could help permanently delete files from her MacBook Pro before sold out to someone else. I know a couple of good file shredder app for Windows but unfortunately they don't have a Mac version yet. Does anyone know the best file shredder for Mac for permanent data deletion? The file should be never recovered when using a data recovery software as they are many private and sensitive data on this Mac. Best Regards, ScottMicrosoft 365 login problem on latest Canary 27842
Hello. I encountered a rather specific problem on the latest version of Canary 27842, although it did not appear immediately after installing this build, but only yesterday after updating Copilot, Microsoft 365 (via Store) and Armoury Crate. Namely, after these updates I lost connection to the Microsoft 365 service (information appeared about the loss of validity of credentials along with logging out of this service). Every attempt to log in to it now ends with error 2604 or 2603 (I am attaching screenshots), regardless of the Internet network through which I try to connect. What's more, a similar situation also occurred on my laptop, which has the same problems. An attempt to reinstall the package did not solve the problem, similarly to an attempt to remove old credentials in the administration panel. All this happens despite correct login to the system via a Microsoft account, correct login to the Microsoft account in the browser and generally no other connection problems. The problem concerns only Microsoft 365. I noticed something interesting because when I tried to run the Microsoft 365 troubleshooter, it did not uninstall, but when I tried to run it, I got information about the possibility of running the NVidia overlay, which is quite strange (this message generally only appears when starting games). Another thing is that when I try to verify the service account through the troubleshooter application - I get a message that the account cannot be verified. I also tried: online package repair service from the Windows administration panel, but despite the completion of the process, the problem still exists; creating a new profile and trying to run the package on it (from the new profile) and this also did not work. If any of you have or had similar problems - please let me know.Replacing Vista OS with an XP OS
I have a Windows computer that came with a MS Vista OS installed. I would like to replace the Vista OS with a MS XP OS. Can I do that and if so, do I need to do anything to the computer (like low-level formatting) before I install Windows XP? The computer is a model HP a64f and I'm thinking about it so I can install and run CorelDraw 12 on it."Reboot and select proper boot device" error ?
I am just trying to install a clean version of Windows 11 and I keep getting that error. I know my bootable usb stick works because I have used it on other computers plenty of times. I tried disabling and enabling fast boot, CSM, changing boot order and it still gives the following error. Please help.
WiFi in Win11 issues in .3915
So i'm going crazy here and don't know where to go next, to Microsoft support or my internet provider... I've happily had Hyper-V on my Windows 11 Insider and some VMs i use for delivering trainings. Few days ago i noticed i no longer can connect to the internet on the VMs. Existing VMs, new VMs, VMs with past snapshots applied, etc.... no internet on the VMs, period. I tried creating new switches several times and nothing helps. However, although i don't need internet to deliver the trainings, when doing so at the university, i always use my host/laptop's internal card with a SIM in it and have no issues whatsoever with the internet in VMs. The SIM i have is from the same provider as my home cable is from. I just turned off my WiFi and connected the cellular network. Boom! VMs instantly have internet access. Turning on WiFi -> no internet again. So at this point i'm kind of stuck and not sure where to go for help. Obviously there is nothing wrong with my Windows OS in general, but there is an issue with the WiFi. On the host, i have no issues with the WiFi, internet is fine and working properly. I'm shutting down my laptop every night, so "restarting" did not fix it. Should i try resetting my router or go to Microsoft Windows support first? I think going to the internet provider has no benefit now, as they will blame the OS. Any thoughts?Infinite loading on installer (AHCI), other issues
I'm encountering an infinite loading screen when booting up the Windows Vista installer, specifically on that green loading bar after Windows loads the files. I get the same result in both Legacy or UEFI. I figured out that changing the SATA Mode from AHCI to IDE made the installer accessible, but with more issues ahead. On Legacy, I cannot pick my hard drive and continuing gave me this error : "Windows could not determine if this computer contains a valid system volume". On UEFI, I can go through with the installation after converting my hard drive to GPT, but once my PC reboots and Vista launches, it's an immediate blue screen. Switching back to AHCI from IDE still gives the blue screen. My computer should be compatible as every subsequent version of Windows can run and it even has drivers for Vista. I don't know what to do from here though, I'd really appreciate some help,Issues for enabling Recall on Windows 11 26100.3909
I’m struggling to get Recall enabled on my Surface pro 11 Copilot+ PC. I’ve enrolled in the release preview ring (lab tenant) and it’s showing as enrolled and pulled all the updates to get to 26100.3909, however I’ve got no AI components installed and recall isn’t available.
