ESU admin account
I have enrolled my Windows 10 for ESU by changing my account to administrator and non-local account. This synced by settings and I didn't need to backup my other files to Onedrive. My update screen confirms I'm enrolled so all good so far. My question is do I need to keep my account as an Administrator now that I am enrolled? I'm a little nervous about leaving it so, as I also have a separate local admin account for installng stuff, and prefer to keep permissions separate from day to day browsing. Thanks, Paulsolucion imposible

Having problems with the Microsoft Store app. When I launch it, it suddenly pops up with a message on the screen: "We're very sorry, an error occurred and the Microsoft Store could not be initialized. Please try updating or come back later." I've tried various methods to solve the problem, such as reinstalling with the "Update this PC" option in the Media Creator Tool to install Windows 10, and the problem still persists. I tried using PowerShell with the following command: Get-AppXPackage *WindowsStore* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} Described in several answers for similar cases posted on the Microsoft community forum. Answer provided by user KapilArya on the hub "https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/windowsinsiderprogram/microsoft-store-wont-launch/1513414" Also, together with a support agent, a solution was attempted by creating a new user to solve the problem, but it didn't work. A diagnosis was also performed for the installation of Windows 11, but my computer doesn't have the minimum specifications for it to be installed. And even so, I still can't solve the problem and I wouldn't like to reinstall Windows 10 using external media (USB) because I would lose too much information about the applications and data that I have from several years of experience. I'm collecting and would like to know if I can do anything else to resolve this issue without losing data. I would like to get help as soon as possible. Thank you for your attention and help in resolving this issue. I attach evidence of the problem and the methods used.
Request to Extend Windows 10 Support Beyond October 14, 2025
Hello Microsoft Team, I’m writing as a loyal Windows user to share my concern about the upcoming end of support for Windows 10 scheduled for October 14, 2025. Many users, including myself, rely on Windows 10 daily for work, education, and personal use. Not all of us are in a position to upgrade our hardware or switch to a new operating system without facing financial or technical challenges. Windows 10 is stable, familiar, and perfectly suits the needs of millions of people worldwide. I respectfully ask that Microsoft consider extending support for Windows 10 or providing more affordable and accessible options for users who cannot upgrade easily. Even an extended security update program for personal users (not just businesses) would make a big difference. Thank you for your time and for listening to the voices of your user community. Sincerely, Omar, Yahiya.

ThanksFast Microsoft recommended driver block rules update with automatic scheduled task
Microsoft recommended driver block rules in Windows are automatically updated starting with Windows 11 22H2, twice per year, but the list itself is updated more often. Microsoft provides ways to update them faster and out of the schedule. I've created a PowerShell script that does this automatically and you only need to run the script once, then it will create a scheduled task in Windows that runs every 7 days and renews the recommended drivers block list. # create a scheduled task that runs every 7 days if (-NOT (Get-ScheduledTask -TaskName "MSFT Driver Block list update" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)) { $action = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute 'Powershell.exe' ` -Argument '-NoProfile -WindowStyle Hidden -command "& {Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://aka.ms/VulnerableDriverBlockList" -OutFile VulnerableDriverBlockList.zip;Expand-Archive .\VulnerableDriverBlockList.zip -DestinationPath "VulnerableDriverBlockList" -Force;Rename-Item .\VulnerableDriverBlockList\SiPolicy_Enforced.p7b -NewName "SiPolicy.p7b" -Force;Copy-Item .\VulnerableDriverBlockList\SiPolicy.p7b -Destination "C:\Windows\System32\CodeIntegrity";$job = Start-Job -Name "Job1" -ScriptBlock { CiTool.exe -r };Start-Sleep -s 15;Stop-Job $job;Remove-Item .\VulnerableDriverBlockList -Recurse -Force;Remove-Item .\VulnerableDriverBlockList.zip -Force;}"' $TaskPrincipal = New-ScheduledTaskPrincipal -LogonType S4U -UserId $env:USERNAME -RunLevel Highest # trigger $Time = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger ` -Once -At (Get-Date).AddHours(3) ` -RepetitionInterval (New-TimeSpan -Days 7) ` # register the task Register-ScheduledTask -Action $action -Trigger $Time -Principal $TaskPrincipal -TaskPath "MSFT Driver Block list update" -TaskName "MSFT Driver Block list update" -Description "Microsoft Recommended Driver Block List update" # define advanced settings for the task $TaskSettings = New-ScheduledTaskSettingsSet -AllowStartIfOnBatteries -DontStopIfGoingOnBatteries -Compatibility Win8 -StartWhenAvailable -ExecutionTimeLimit (New-TimeSpan -Minutes 3) # add advanced settings we defined to the task Set-ScheduledTask -TaskPath "MSFT Driver Block list update" -TaskName "MSFT Driver Block list update" -Settings $TaskSettings } https://github.com/HotCakeX/Harden-Windows-Security/wiki/Fast-and-Automatic-Microsoft-Recommended-Driver-Block-Rules-updatesBITS Downloading App updates from unknown endpoint
Hi, Our IDS started freaking out today because a large number of our endpoints started initiating BITS downloads to an unknown endpoint. My initial reaction was ransomware, but after further investigation it appears that these BITS downloads are updates for Windows Store Apps. I am making this post to confirm that these endpoints are actually indeed official Microsoft endpoints. The BITS requests I had seen were all for the Limelight Networks CDN (llnwd[.]net), which I have heard hosts content for a lot of MSPs, one of which being Microsoft. Checking the logs, it appears that our workstations have never made BITS requests to this CDN. All previous BITS updates were carried out using official microsoft.com endpoints. The following are some examples of the domains seen in the BITS requests: ic-c39e4900-0f7065-msftstoretlu19.s.loris.llnwd[.]net ic-c39e4900-0d5ab5-msftstore19.s.loris.llnwd[.]net ic-c39e4900-08b3f9-msftstore19.s.loris.llnwd[.]net ic-c39e4900-0700f8-msftstore19.s.loris.llnwd[.]net Although all my investigations point to these being official Microsoft endpoints, I am worried that a CDN is being used because a malicious actor could easily mangle the URLs to make them look like official Microsoft ones. Is this the correct place to confirm that the above sub-domains are official Microsoft, and if not where should I ask this question instead? ThanksWorking with multiple work accounts on a windows 10 device
Hello everyone I think it's time for me to vent my frustration about working with multiple work/education accounts on a windows 10 device... First of all, I have 3 Microsoft Accounts (1x Personal; 1x Work; 1x Education) and oh boy, it's very very frustrating to get all these 3 Accounts work together on the same windows 10 device with one Userprofile. Working with my Personal and Work (or Education) account on the same device works fine, no problems, but as soon as I add additionally either my Work or Education Account in the Windows 10 settings under "Account > Email & accounts" things starting to get complicated. Sync issues across every app that uses one of these work/education accounts (classic Office Apps, ToDo, Edge, OneNote) Upload blocks in the office apps (Word, Excel...) & Credential Errors 4x/day a notification toast that my work accounts need to fix... blabla -> I click okay, now fix it -> Accounts fixed -> later in the day, same error occurs... I just want to use all my accounts on the same device with the same Userprofile, I really love the Microsoft 365 Platform but these things driving me crazy. I had a time, in there I worked completely online, but yeah, we all know how cool it is to work with the online versions of Office Apps. I also tried multi-bootable windows installations or multiple Userprofiles and it worked, but I often need to access files/services that are stored in the OneDrive from my Education Account or vise versa, so it's really impracticable. Then I tried to link my accounts just in these apps where I need it, but Windows 10 really have fun on it to write in my accounts under the named windows 10 settings location. Has anyone a best practice, tips/tricks etc. everything helps... Thanks.Cumulative update KB5001391 fails to Install
