I've been exploring Microsoft 365 Copilot for Excel workflows recently. It works well for simple queries, but I still find it limited when dealing with: - messy data cleaning - converting images/PDFs into structured tables - more complex data transformations Curious how others are using Copilot for these scenarios? Are you relying purely on Copilot, or combining it with other tools/workflows?108Views2likes4CommentsThis is why you should switch to Windows 11
A lot a people criticize Windows 11 for bloats and what so ever but actually Windows 11 has great features such as Game bar (if you're a gamer), Phone link which you can send photos from your PC/Laptop to your Phone (works for both Android and Iphone) And best of all Task view which is very important because you can open Microsoft Word/Excel/Powerpoint while chatting on Microsoft Teams or Whatsaap. Windows 11 maybe bad but still it has great features.54Views0likes4CommentsHow can I install Visual Studio 2022 v17.12.6 Community Edition?
Hello everyone, I need to install Visual Studio 2022 version 17.12.6 (Community Edition) for compatibility with the InDesign 2026 SDK, which requires this specific version for building plugins. However, when I checked the Microsoft Visual Studio downloads and release history pages, I could only find the Professional edition installer for version 17.12.6. I was unable to locate the Community edition for this exact version. Could someone please guide me on where I can download Visual Studio 2022 v17.12.6 Community Edition, whether it is still officially available, or if there is any way to install this specific version using the Visual Studio installer or an offline layout? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.38Views0likes1CommentEFS Certificate Lost After Format – Files Cannot Be Decrypted
Windows installation. I formatted Windows and copied the encrypted files to an external hard drive before formatting. After reinstalling Windows and signing in with the same Microsoft account that was linked to the original installation, the EFS certificate is no longer available and files cannot be decrypted. Error: "The specified file could not be decrypted" Command tried: cipher /d — returned ERR on all files Important detail: After the new Windows installed, I saw the Windows.old folder and permanently deleted it using Shift+Delete, thinking it was unnecessary. During deletion, some files showed an error saying they could not be deleted. I believe the EFS certificate (.pfx) may have been inside Windows.old — is there any chance it still exists on the drive since some files failed to delete? Can you help recover it? These files contain irreplaceable personal memories. Any help is appreciated. i really really need those files and many files as soon as possible if you know how please help me.75Views0likes3CommentsWindows 11 24H2/25H2 System Freeze After January 2026 Updates – Lenovo ThinkPad G2

I recently moved to Windows 11 (installed from scratch), and as soon as it was ready I activated the Clipboard History with the Win+V shortcut, since I really liked this feature on Windows 10. But after a short while I noticed the Windows 11 Clipboard History does not recognize the Delete key anymore. On Windows 10 this works: - Invoke the Clipboard History with Win+V - Scroll to the entry you want to delete with your arrow keys - Hit Delete on your keyboard and that entry will be removed from the history. Clipboard History remains open so you can repeat this for as many entries as you like. On Windows 11: - Invoke the Clipboard History with Win+V - Scroll to the entry you want to delete with your arrow keys - Hit Delete on your keyboard, then the Clipboard History closes with no error or message. If you invoke the Clipboard History again, the entry is still there. So apparently there are only two options on Windows 11 now, use the "Clear all" button to remove all the entries from the history. Or click the 3 dots next to each entry you want to remove and then click Delete, which is... annoying if compared to Windows 10. Is there a way to make the Delete key work again?7.3KViews29likes38Comments
