Windows 11 PC significantly slowing down Spectrum WiFi speeds
I don't understand why this is happening. I shutdown my PC and run a speed test over Wifi. The speeds read around 300mbps which is my plan. So then I turn on my PC and once the PC is booted my speeds drop down all the way to around 20mbps??? Why is this happening? Any solutions?
Windows 11 version 26200.8457 experiences a memory leak when transferring files wirelessly
I got a new phone that supports the latest version of Phone Link, which allows me to access my phone's files directly in File Explorer. I tried to wirelessly transfer my entire music library to the phone, but the process frequently froze randomly and even disconnected. The next morning, I found that my laptop hadn't gone to sleep all night and was running extremely slowly. When I opened Task Manager, I saw that the Cross Device Service was using an unusually high amount of resources, and in the end, only a small number of files were successfully transferred. System version: 26200.8457
All shortcuts icons turn blank (white) in Windows 11
I turned my PC a while ago and all shortcut icons have been turned blank. I cleared the shortcut cache by deleting the IconCache.db file. Nothing Run sfc /scannow with no errors. Nothing When I change it again nothing happens, it remains blank. The last update that may cause the problem was installed the last time I turned off my computer (2026-04 Security Update (KB5083769) (26200.8246). I uninstalled it but the problem remained. Creating a new local account didn't solve the problem either. Please advise. Thank youCan't login with Win 11 PC, need help!
I'm trying to make some reservations but I can't login with 2 different PC here in italy (home & office, so 2 different networks and providers); login window doesn't come out Try different browsers (chrome, edge, brave, vivaldi) also in incognito mode. If I do the workflow of the room booking, when I put my email, it says "we found existing accoount, connect..." but button has same behaviour (infinite spinning and wait time) The strange is that, if I use the mobile app (android) it works perfectly...
Help me make this Windos PC slightly less awful
So I bought a pc for £60 I am aware it is ancient technology but I liked the case and it has some nice fans and things, I want to make it slightly less terrible (I’m literally only going to be playing beam ng drive on it) so any suggestions on what I can swap out on a very tight budget to make it somewhat useable I am willing to buy second hand (in uk)My hard drive is encrypted with Bit Locker and I can't unlock it. What should I do
I'm using an NVMe SSD on Windows 11, and I previously enabled Bit Locker for full disk encryption. But today, after booting up, I encountered the following situation: the system prompts "A recovery key is required to unlock the drive." The recovery key I found after logging into my Microsoft account is invalid. What could be causing this? I recently performed a Windows update and also upgraded the BIOS, so I'm unsure if that's related.
Which WiFi card to get for Windows 11?
Hey, really basic question. I recently bought a Dell Precision 3460 i5-12500 and need to get a wifi card. Which one do I get? Are the ax210 and ax211 interchangeable on this model, or is there a better one than these I could get? I haven’t had much experience with anything other than Macs hence why I’m unsure. The computer hasn’t arrived yet so I can’t look at the slot either. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!Displays Going to Sleep
Set up a new PC at work (I'm the network admin). We have a power plan we apply to all PCs (same one that was on my last PC). On this computer, however, whenever I lock my PC (using Win+L), within 30 seconds the displays just go on standby/sleep/hibernate. This is annoying and I cannot figure out why. Power plan is set up accordingly. NO it is not due to monitor settings, for sure Windows. Send help. Thanks.KW100 keyboard not discoverable on windows 11 pc
