Can't Sign in to anything with my Microsoft account
After the last update or so, I can't sign in to the Microsoft store or the Xbox app or the settings. There is no error code or anything, it just flashes the sign in page and disappear. In the store I get the error "We encountered an error. Please try signing in again later." and that's all. I tried all sorts of thing like resetting and repairing the Microsoft store and Xbox app, but those did nothing. i tried these commands "sfc /scannowsfc /scannow" and "Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth" but still nothing. Does anyone have the same error or knows a fix, please let me know. ThanksAfter booting up Windows 11, the WiFi icon takes 30 to 60 seconds to appear.
After upgrading my Lenovo computer to Windows 11, the Bluetooth icon appears immediately upon startup, but the Wi-Fi icon and connection functionality in the taskbar take 30 seconds to 1 minute to appear. The network adapter model is Intel AX211. I have tried the official driver but it did not resolve the issue.
Windows11 File Explorer experiences issues when selecting multiple files
When selecting two or more files in Windows 11 File Explorer, the icons of selected files suddenly become blurry. Testing indicates this issue is directly related to the “Details Pane” on the right: closing this pane or switching to the “Preview Pane” prevents the blurring, though it requires retaining the details functionality. Is there a fundamental fix available (such as an update or registry tweak)?
Windows 11 account issues: lock screen skipped, device not showing in Microsoft account
Hi everyone, I’m facing a few strange issues on Windows 11 that seem to be limited only to my main user profile, and I’m hoping to fix them without creating a new profile and migrating all my data. Settings > Apps > Advanced app settings: I see a sign-in-related issue & an error code 0x80860010. The lock screen is skipped when the PC starts. On power-on or restart, the lock screen flashes for a split second, and then Windows directly goes to the PIN entry screen. This happens only on my main user account. If I create a new local or Microsoft account, the lock screen works perfectly even after a restart or cold boot. My Windows PC does not appear under Devices on my Microsoft account page, even though the PC is signed in with my Microsoft account locally. I’ve already tried restarting, signing out and back into my Microsoft account, checking sign-in options, and testing Fast Startup on and off. Since everything works fine on newly created accounts, I believe my existing user profile or account state may be corrupted. I’m trying to avoid creating a new profile and manually migrating data if possible. Any guidance on repairing the current user profile, re-linking the device to my Microsoft account, or restoring normal lock screen behavior would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help. ~Gourav
I like the Windows 11 interface, but the system says it can't be upgraded.
I absolutely love the new interface of Windows 11, but the system notification states that my current device cannot be upgraded through conventional methods. I'm unsure whether I must force an installation by downloading an ISO image or if I need to replace my computer to experience Windows 11. I'm seeking a feasibility analysis and recommendations.Windows 11 laptop suddenly displays a hard drive error message?

"Start Menu -> All Apps" Some installed Apps are not showing; Do not show up in Search
Hi, I just got myself a new Windows 11 machine running 22H2. When installing some applications, I noted that they had been successfully installed, and can be run up manually from their "Program Files" folders respectively. Also checked under "Settings -> Apps -> Installed Apps" that these application had been installed successfully. However, when I try to look them up from Start Menu -> All Apps, I noticed that some applications did not show in this menu. In addition, when I do a search from the Start Menu for these affected apps, these apps could not be found. I tried going to their respective .exe files to "Pin to Start" and they do appear on the Start Menu's pinned section and now show up when I perform a search from the Start Menu. But they still do not show up when I try to find them on "All Apps". Obviously, once I remove the pin, they do not show up from the search menu anymore. Is there anyway I can resolve this? Thanks!
Recent windows 11 25H2 update memory leak
My first time posting, I am unsure if this has been Acknowledged or what’s the fix but, after the recent updates for windows 11 25H2, I also needed to update drivers, intel drivers and Nvidia Drivers. I’m using an HP omen 16, 32GB of ram, Intel Ultra 7, Nvidia RTX5080. Normally idling uses about 20% ram, I opened Microsoft PC manager and it now was idling at 40% ram usage. After checking task manager, it was WMIproviderhost hogging the ram. Mainly SecurityHealthService in the events WMI log errors. I’ve tried running sc stop SecurityHealthService and responded access denied as admin. I’ve tried changing the folder to SecurityHealth_old to promote a refreshed new folder. Access was denied (system owns it) I have tried the repair app feature for windows security, then reboot. Still slowly ramping memory up. I then reset windows security and rebooted. Still doing it. I’ve verifyrepository and WMI repository came back consistent. delivery optimization has been turned off so it’s not that recent issue and AppX, but WMIproviderhost had been steady climbing upwards of 500mb of ram usage before restarting comp. Any ideas?Cannot make file association with a microsoft store app
Hello forum So the problem is that there is no way to set a specific file-app association with a microsoft store app (making a file opening with a certain software) because: 1) When trying to select application through "open with menu -> search in mircosoft store" when it selected it just opens app and nothing happens (as in video) 2) There is no exact install directory and even if you manage to find some hidden .exe file it doesn't work (tried that, as seen in video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QLqGYPUkZw
