After KB5068861 is installed, i lose wifi connectivity. Although the wifi adapter is showing in device manager and shows its working properly, Windows isnt actually seeing it. If i click the little globe (disconnected) symbol bottom right of the screen, wifi icon is missing from the popup box. Uninstalling the update returns the wifi. This happened originally on November 11th when the update was first installed, i ended up having to install a system backup from Backupper to get it back. Unfortunately this update was installed again last night and i lost wifi again, fortunately i was able to just uninstall the update and ive got wifi back. I have now had to hide the update using wushowhide.diagcab.21Views0likes1CommentAre you all satisfied with the look of Windows 11?
For some reason, few people talk about Windows design. Personally, I don't like Windows 11. The animations may be beautiful, but this style of icons and system programs is a bit disgusting to me. I think it looks cheap or old somehow. What do you think?34Views0likes2CommentsProblem with transition between multiple monitors
After the Windows 11 upgrade at work, I'm having a problem with my cursor falling to the top of the next display rather than stopping. This image may explain it better. Display 1 is my laptop and screens 2 and 3 are two large desktop monitors. When my cursor transitions from display 2 to display 1, if the cursor touches anywhere indicated by the red line, it immediately drops to the top right corner of display 1. The cursor should stop like it does when it hits the top or bottom borders. Now on the space where the two displays meet, the cursor jumps either up or down depending where you are. It only goes straight across in the middle of the shared space. See the green lines below. Any ideas?32Views0likes1CommentWeb page hosting and Email hosting
I have a long-time client who I advise for all his computer office needs –Windows, hardware, office software, etc. But when it comes to web/email hosting, I have only basic knowledge, and not enough of that. So here’s the situation: this client runs a small business, and has used a local web hosting service to host a business web page, and a different service to host host his email. He has his own domain, so his email address’s domain is his business name. Well, these hosting services are fizzling out — he’s tried repeated to contact them with no luck. Lately, he tells me his business email is no longer working, and attempts to have it rectified seem to fall on deaf ears. So, my question is this: how do I help him move to new, reliable hosting services? Who does he sign up with? And how does the new hosting service “take over” his web page (I assume that’s a matter of copying the HTML code and pasting it into a new hosting service, then re-registering the domain)? If he’s using IMAP email, how is that content moved to a new server? It’s not likely we’re going to get much in the way of cooperation from his existing services if they won’t respond to his pleas for help.17Views0likes2CommentsHow to download youtube videos on pc for offline viewing?
Hello everyone, I need help with a simple way to download YouTube videos on my Windows PC so I can view them when no internet is available. I often travel, and my network access is not stable, so local video files would be very helpful. I found many tools on the web, but I have no idea which ones are safe or reliable. Some tools show a lot of ads, and some apps look suspicious. I hope to find a method that is easy to use, supports high video quality, and does not install extra unwanted software. If anyone has a safe tool or clear steps to download youtube videos on pc, please tell me. Any advice would help a lot. Thanks!1.3KViews0likes9CommentsIf Windows 11 sucks now can you imagine how bad Windows 12 will be?
I've been struggling with the current state of Windows 11, which feels increasingly unstable and filled with unnecessary bloat, making it frustrating to use. This makes me worry about what Windows 12 might bring, as if Windows 11 is already this bad, I can't imagine how much worse the next version could be. It seems like Microsoft is pushing out updates that compromise stability and user control, leaving many of us feeling dissatisfied with the direction Windows is heading. At this point, I'm questioning whether investing time and effort into upgrading to Windows 12 will be worth it or if it's better to stick with more stable, older versions or explore alternative OS options. The overall experience with Windows 11 has been disappointing, and I'm genuinely concerned that future releases might only make things worse instead of improving them.56Views0likes2CommentsLine under taskbar icons
There's a weird line below some taskbar icons. Before, I knew that line indicates if app is open/focused, but there's a line under closed apps now, for example third icon in my screenshot, while second icon is not underlined! And why is so longer - each line has a different width like it indicates something, but no clue what. How to remove the line under apps which are not running? What does the line means even? Why its so inconsistent and confusing? Running latest 24H2 btw.4.1KViews9likes6CommentsCannot delete the windows upgrade log files
I just downloaded the 23h2 version a couple days ago, I tried deleting the log files in the setting app and in disk cleanup but it always still stays there, when I use disk cleanup to clean it the progress bar is stuck at like 99% and will stay like that unless I interact with my pc in anyway such as moving my mouse, sometimes the cleanup will finish on its own but the log files is still there, and before you say "ohh it's just 200 mb dont worry abt it" I just want you to know that the size of the log files had been steadily increasing whenever I open my pc, on the pic it's 190mb but rn it's over 200mb and there's nothing I could do to remove it, I'm just being forward thinking34Views0likes2CommentsTask Manager no longer shows running apps like Windows 10
in Windows 10 Task Manager listed Apps, Background Processes and Windows Processes clearly. This made it easy to see what is running at a glance. In Windows 11 everything feels more grouped and it is harder to quickly identify running apps. I wish Task Manager had a Show Less view that shows just the running apps and a Show More view that expands to the full Task Manager with all details. This would make it much easier to manage running apps like in Windows 10. Is there a setting for this or could Microsoft consider adding it back in a future update?6Views0likes0Comments
