How can I extract text from an image on my computer?
Hi everyone, I have some images that contain important text, and I plan to extract the text into an editable format (like Word or plain text). I know this is usually done with OCR, but I'm not sure which tool or method is the most reliable for everyday use. I prefer something easy to use on Windows to met me extract text from image. Has anyone here tried different apps or methods for converting images to text? Are there any good built-in options, or do I need third-party software?Why? After 30 minutes my laptop shutting itself off
I have a laptop with a case of shutting itself off with a duration of approximately 30 minutes, but before 30 minutes is up if restarted the count is like resetting the beginning. so if you want to live longer before dying, you have to restart it first. I think this is not due to overheating and there is no setting in the OS that leads to automatic shutdown. but I don't know what causes this to happen. please help me.
How to bypass or fix the processor isn't currently supported for Windows 11
Hi all, I have a modern PC with a high profile CPU Intel i7-7700HQ. When I was trying to upgrade this computer from Windows 10 to Windows 11 24H2, it says This PC doesn't currently Windows 11 system requirements. I was told to run the PC Health Check app to see what kind of hardware requirements are missing. The following error is returned by the app: The processor isn't currently supported for Windows 11 This is ridiculous as the CPU is pretty new and works fine when running Windows 10. Why Microsoft asks me to upgrade to Windows 11 but it does not allow me to do that. Is there any way to bypass or fix "The processor isn't currently supported for Windows 11" error? Looking forward to your suggestion!Windows 11: What’s New Compared to Windows 10
Windows 11: What’s New Compared to Windows 10 1. A Brand-New Look & Feel Modern, sleek interface: Rounded corners, pastel accents, and fluid animations give Windows 11 a fresh, Mac-like aesthetic—far more refined than Windows 10’s traditional layout. Centered Start Menu & Taskbar: By default, everything sits at the center—but you can revert to the classic left alignment if preferred. Simplified Start Menu: Live Tiles are gone. Instead, you get a clean grid of static, pinned apps and “Recommended” content. Full List here https://dellenny.com/windows-11-whats-new-compared-to-windows-10/

After i reinstalled Windows I couldnt install Maxthon , Firefox or Opera browsers. I downloaded, installed and used all three before the reinstall. I was only able to install Firefox by using Internet Explorer when the box popped up it says open or save. I saved it and installed it, its the only browser i have to use now. I was able to install Opera and Maxthon by downloading them with Internet Explorer and when the box popped up that said open or save i choose open because they wouldnt save to my computer. But when i open Opera and Maxthon the pages dont show all the pictures and i get error messages like security certificate expired or cannot display this page. If i download the files form another computer onto a usb stick they wont install, i click on them and nothing happens. The same thing happens if i can download the files while using Firefox browser. Has anyone ever heard of anything so crazy? I only installed SP1 and SP2, no other Microsoft updates , there are some on the Windows updates catalog page that i didnt install yet. Could that have something to do with it.Low Disk Space

Hello. I have an issue with my Elgato Cam Link 4K (external) in Windows 11. I recently built a new PC, spec is at the bottom of the post. Each time I shut down my PC, my Elgato Camlink feed will not show up when I next boot up the PC and open OBS. It just shows a black feed. The same goes for Windows Camera app and Elgato Capture Utility. They all know Cam Link is there, it just doesn’t show the feed. The only fix I have is to physically unplug it from the USB port and plug it back in, then I have vision. Once I do this, I can freely turn the camera on and off with no problems. But the problem repeats once I shut the PC down again. It’s obviously not ideal to have to keep unplugging and plugging it back in when you want to seamlessly load OBS and stream without worrying about hardware issues each time. More detail It’s plugged into a USB 3 port (10Gbps) and connected to a Sony Alpha ZV-e10 ii via Silkland Micro HDMI to HDMI 2.1 Cable 2M, 8K@60Hz. The camera output settings are optimized for streaming and when it DOES appear it looks perfect. I have tried multiple USB ports and the problem remains - once I shut down and boot up, it just won’t appear without an unplug. OBS canvas settings appear to be fine. I usually power the camera on once Windows has loaded, but have tried keeping the camera on during shut down and reboot and it’s the same result.Can't connect to the network
The network adapter keeps dropping. After updating it once, I often couldn't connect to the Internet and had to restart the adapter and wait a while before I could connect again. Today, I updated the system again, but after the update, I lost my Internet connection again, and restarting the adapter didn't help.Windows system HDR brightness auto-adjustment issue
After enabling HDR, the laptop's brightness decreases in scenes with a lot of dark colors, making subtitles and other text difficult to see. Even the white text that appears when restarting becomes dimmer. However, this does not happen in scenes with light colors. What can I do about this?

This PC has just been upgraded to Windows 24H2 and now while I enter a comment to a video in Chrome (64 bit, version 131.0.6778.140) the text is invisible if I have Dark Theme active. The comment becomes visible after I save it. Basically I'm getting black text on a black background.
