I just got a new computer running Windows 11, and I need to transfer a huge batch of large files from my old Windows 10 machine. We're talking about over 100GB of data, mostly videos and project files. The files are too big for cloud uploads and a standard USB stick is a no-go. Looking for the fastest and most reliable method to let quickly and safely transfer 100 gb files from Windows 10 to Windows 11. I've heard about using an external hard drive, home network transfers, or special software. What's the best setup? I have a router and can connect both PCs to my local network if that helps. Appreciate any step-by-step advice.69Views1like8CommentsNotepad Bug: Monospace is not monospaced
Using a monospace font (Lucida Console), the text is not monospaced: Everything should line up correctly, like this (Screenshot from PuTTY, same font, Lucida Console): This used to work correctly in Windows 7 Notepad. I tried several different monospaced fonts (Courier New, Noto Mono, Consolas, etc.) and had similar results.3.3KViews6likes5CommentsWindows 11 that causes severe eye strain and headaches
Hello, I am reporting a serious display-related issue in Windows 11 that causes severe eye strain and headaches and makes the OS unusable for me and a few other people. We migrated the entire company, 300 people, from Windows 10 to Windows 11 due to security requirements, but now about 30 employees are suffering from headaches. Since switching from Windows 10 to Windows 11, I experience strong headaches and visual discomfort even during short sessions and even when simply looking at the desktop with no active workload. This issue is consistent and reproducible. Based on extensive testing, I suspect Windows 11 applies forced temporal dithering or other frame-to-frame color modulation at the OS / DWM / graphics pipeline level, even when using a native 8-bit display. System configuration: Native 8-bit IPS monitor (not 6-bit + FRC) NVIDIA GPU HDR fully disabled (Windows, driver, and monitor) Tested via DisplayPort and HDMI Multiple refresh rates and timings tested Troubleshooting steps already performed: Clean installation of multiple NVIDIA drivers (Game Ready and Studio, DDU used) Explicitly set 8 bpc color depth Tested RGB and YCbCr output formats Disabled G-SYNC / VRR at both driver and monitor levels Disabled MPO (Multiplane Overlay) via registry Reset NVIDIA Control Panel to defaults Removed all custom ICC profiles and reverted to default sRGB Disabled Night Light, blue light filters, and all adaptive color features Tested different brightness levels and fully disabled monitor post-processing Tested multiple scaling settings (100–150%) Tested different resolutions and timing standards (CVT / CVT-RB) Tested output via integrated GPU (where available) Key observation: With the exact same hardware, cables, monitor, and settings, Windows 10 does not cause these symptoms. The problem appears only on Windows 11, which strongly suggests a change in the Windows 11 graphics pipeline, DWM behavior, or color management. This is not a subjective preference issue but a health-related problem. Questions: Is there any supported or undocumented way to fully disable THIS in Windows 11? If not, then are there plans to provide explicit user control over color modulation in future Windows versions, given that this behavior causes severe eye strain and headaches for some users? I would appreciate a response from a technical specialist familiar with Windows graphics, DWM, and display output behavior.183Views3likes5CommentsHow to disable the Smart Charging feature in Windows 11?
Following the system update, a power management feature named Full Intelligent Charging has been automatically enabled. I wish to manually disable this within Settings (System > Power/Battery) to revert to standard charging mode, but no explicit toggle option has been found. Please advise on the specific path or method to disable this feature.25Views0likes0CommentsAVG Prevented HP Smart Installing - Windows 11
Neighbour was tearing his hair out trying to get a new HP printer (yes, I know…) connected and the HP Smart app systematically crashed during install. No indications from AVG that it was doing anything, but watching Task Manager, I saw AVG CPU use spike just as HP Smart crashed. Uninstalled the various AVG elements and restarted. HP Smart app installed normally and new printed set up correctly. Neighbour already had the hump with the recently installed AVG as it “kept trying to sell him add-ons”, so he wasn’t fussed about it being removed.42Views0likes3CommentsWindows 11 DCOM service process CPU usage soars to 90% immediately upon startup.
After system startup, the DCOM Server Process Launcher service immediately consumes approximately 90% CPU usage, causing system lag. This anomaly is suspected to be related to recent Windows updates. It is necessary to confirm whether this is a known bug caused by the update and to seek solutions to reduce resource consumption.17Views0likes0CommentsWie kann ich Windows 11 ohne TPM installieren?
ich möchte auf meinem älteren Rechner Windows 11 installieren, aber mein System erfüllt die offiziellen TPM-Anforderungen nicht. Hat jemand eine verlässliche Methode, um Windows 11 installieren ohne TPM möglich zu machen? Ich habe von Registry-Änderungen oder dem Einsatz von Skripten gehört, bin mir aber unsicher, welcher Weg aktuell und sicher ist. Besonders interessiert mich, ob die Methode auch nach größeren Updates noch funktioniert. Falls ihr eine funktionierende Anleitung zum Thema Windows 11 installieren ohne TPM habt, wäre ich für jeden Tipp dankbar! Vielen Dank im Voraus.34Views0likes7CommentsAfter 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.12Views0likes0CommentsPhotos - Slideshow is systematically put back into MAGNIFYING GLASS?

Hi everyone, i have a huge Problem with always on VPN and IPv6. We have a working configuration, with RAS Server and Windows 11 Clients using always on VPN with IPv4 and computer certificates (IKEv2) from internal CA. External Clients connect over Internet to Firewall -> RAS -> VPN CONNECT (with certificate) -> Access to internal. Works. But now we are facing some problems with IPv6. Many Internet providers are working with IPv6 only Addresses for private internet connection. When users are trying to connect over IPv6 with their Certificate, it is not working. So, we tried to rebuild the configuration. I configured a second RAS Server for testing. I recreated the config and VPN settings but tried to connect from internal network, just to test connection for VPN with IPv6 without any routing problems or anything like that. Even if i try to connect to the RAS Server directly from the same Network (IPv6) it is not connecting. Server is reachable, configuration for IPV6 is set, certificate is installed, PKI is reachable... anything seems fine. But, as soon as i try to connect to RAS with IPv6 AND IKEv2 Certificate, it wont connect. It seems, that the client doesnt even really trying. I hit "connect" and in less than a second the error appears that it cannot connect. There is no real error message in eventlog or anywhere else. It's just saying... no, not working. So, my question is: Doese anyone ever had a working IPv6 Always on VPN Device Tunnel with Computer Certificates and IKEv2? Because i dont have any more ideas what could be the Problem! Thanks!3Views0likes0Comments
