My C drive is running out of space, so I want to upgrade to Windows 11 26H1 to clean up junk files.
My C drive is almost full, mainly because the WinSxS and AppData folders are taking up space and are difficult to delete. I’m thinking of upgrading to 26H1 to free up some space. Will CS:GO run without errors on 26H1? If it works fine, I plan to test it in a virtual machine first before installing it on my actual computer.Occasional frame drops when minimizing windows in Windows 11
My computer has sufficient performance, and the monitor has a high refresh rate. When I open a window, wait a while, and then minimize it, I experience frame drops, but this doesn’t happen if I interact with the window continuously. I’m looking for a solution.Error when Upgrading Windows from 23H2 to 25H2
Hi, I am really hoping that somebody can help me with the issue that I am experiencing right now which is as following: I work in school Environment, and I am trying to upgrade all the devices that we have in school at the moment to Windows version 25H2, but when I am doing that on devices that are connected to our school domain and still has Windows version 23H2 every time at the end of the process of upgrading the device it is undoing changes and getting back to Windows version 23H2. Can somebody help me with this problem? I have already use options such as: Windows Update from the settings, Windows Assistant from the official Microsoft Website, ISO image mounted on the computer and Media creation tool, but nothing has been successful so far. Every time it is undoing changes and getting back to Windows version 23H2. It would be great to have this issue resolved. Krzysztof Szyszko
Right-clicking on taskbar shortcuts, Wi-Fi, or the clock area in Windows 11 also does not work
After the Windows 11 automatic update, I can left-click on taskbar shortcuts but cannot right-click them; when I click on the Wi-Fi, volume, or clock icons, I see a loading animation but they won’t open at all. The problem persists after restarting. Please help.
The Start menu and the Win key in Windows 11 sometimes fail to open
While using Windows 11, the Start menu and the Windows logo key on the keyboard suddenly stop working completely; neither clicking nor pressing them produces any response. I have tried the following steps, but none of them worked: Pressing Fn + Win to confirm that the Win key lock is not enabled Restarting the Explorer process Running the system file check with `sfc /scannow` Currently, only restarting the computer temporarily restores normal functionality, but the issue reoccurs after the system has been running for a while. Please advise on possible causes and solutions.
Local account and MS account
I just did a windows 11 Home clean install and used my MS account for the installation. (Ready for the planned deactivation of local accounts.) Now I have two home directories and Windows is using the new MS account directory structure, but all my active files are in the local account directory structure. These questions will sound stupid, and they are, so we got that covered. Please reference howto documents. If I should read/study a book, please point me to the best Windows 11 Home admin book. How do I tell which UID I'm using? How to find the correct profile I'm using. Can I delete the local user account without deleting the active files? How to merge the two account files to the true active MS UID? Thank you, Ed T.
Windows 11: Task Manager: Background Processes: Stop Unnecessary Ones from Starting Automatically
Greetings. For far too long, I see random instances when at least the following four unnecessary background processes are running automatically in Task Manager: Microsoft Content, Work or School Account, Windows OOBE Service, and Microsoft Store Background Task Host. I do not have and never have had a Work or School Account. I do not allow any of these applications to run in the background. Could someone at Microsoft please improve the software modules for at least the above four processes so they will not run automatically in Task Manager at random instances without my allowance? Thank you for your assistance, if indeed you offer it.
Restore deleted policies
Hi there, The test and last update rings were deleted from our Autopatch policy. How can I go about restoring them, please? When I attempt to add groups to those rings and set deferrals, I get a warning message saying "Update policies from this Autopatch group are missing, usually because they’ve been deleted. Settings cannot be configured for missing policies until they are restored." The Deployment Ring and Feature Update settings are available to configure, but there's no editable settings for Quality and Driver Updates, so I'm unable to save the policy in the hopes to re-create them that way. Any help is appreciated!FSLogix Version Compatibility
