Under Windows Update, Windows Insider Program I get the message 'Check Windows Update for a newer and more secure build' but Windows update says thet I am up to date. When I troubleshoot the message, I should be on 26120.2200 now. The insider programme no longer shows the insider channel I am on as it only gives the choice of stopping the insider preview builds.JohnBy41Jan 08, 2026Copper Contributor610Views0likes1CommentWindows 11 displays a black screen with an error after the login screen.

Hello, after enabling the taskbar auto-hide feature, a thin line remains visible at the bottom and won't fully hide. This issue appeared suddenly without any specific action triggering it. Please advise on a solution.ArkansasQuapawJan 08, 2026Iron Contributor8Views0likes0CommentsWindows 11 updates fail every single day.
System updates frequently fail (attempted daily but consistently unsuccessful). Basic troubleshooting has been attempted without resolution. The root cause of the update failures must be identified, and a viable solution to permanently disable Windows Updates is required.ZepFluousJan 08, 2026Iron Contributor26Views0likes3CommentsIs the inability to disable CSM on Windows 10 motherboards affecting Fast Startup?
The Biostar B85 motherboard paired with a GTX770 graphics card runs Windows 10 (UEFI + GPT partitioning). The system still performs a self-test at startup and cannot enable Fast Startup. The CSM option in the BIOS is enabled; attempting to disable it results in an error. Sub-options (e.g., Boot Device Control) have been changed to UEFI mode, but the “Video Policy” setting cannot be switched to UEFI mode, preventing CSM from being fully disabled. Seeking specific configuration adjustments.ZepFluousJan 08, 2026Iron Contributor27Views0likes2CommentsWindows 10 Defender Offline Scan Does Not Respond to Clicks
