Windows 11 Home - fresh install - bitlocker problem
Hello i just did a fresh install of windows 11 home on my desktop. And after rebooting my second ssd ( partition d ) is asking for a bitlocker key. I can't connect to https://aka.ms/recoverykey the site dosen't work for me. Is there a way to recover my data or it is lost forever?
You want my feedback? Don’t steal it from me!
The search for perfection is what this channel used to represent for me! I am not going to defend any sides, but some things need to be looked at here. I see what’s going on, and it’s a dumb problem—a giant massive problem with just language! I can see when topics are open, people who write in English get more attention, I agree with that!!! I can see a lot of dumb and idiotic requests made from a community that doesn’t know how the system works. Like something really stupid that I read: remove TPM! Please never do this! TPM is a must! So what happens here in my vision: we have raw material (data), slaves (users), and a lord of slaves (big guys)! Talking about my reality, Market number 22, Brazil. People enter here with no sense of English, but when the inside is activated, additional data is collected—more than the normal data the system gets. This is the raw material, and the slaves come to give suggestions, but are ignored by the owners of the slaves. Why do only topics that make the world go crazy deserve attention? Why not use the data to learn the behavior of the client, and filter who knows and who doesn’t know? Or is every single byte of data important? Instead of stealing my data, ask!!!! I am not the type of person who wants to hide in a cave to get zero data online so no one can get it—it’s impossible today! If I wanted to be anonymous, I would live in a forest! It’s true that some decisions lead to greedier actions! And the thing you guys just don’t want to see or make is to give a little transparency. When I say transparency, I mean one that reaches both the poor and the rich! I used to think this place was the place that made the difference. That matched the slogan: “We want to empower every person in the world!” I love the product, I already fought for it, had a lot of happy and bad experiences, but after the billions came, it’s just ignoring people! It’s an operating system that comes with things I didn’t even choose! Is the agenda to tag and brand every person in the world? There are better ways to do it! I can say for Brazil that a lot of bad stuff happens here inside the OS. A long time ago, I never had the courage to talk about this or report it. Like exploitation of vulnerabilities, old software no longer supported that still has vulnerabilities and is still used! How the hell can a clean install have 500 firewall rules? It’s lacking transparency. So the owners doing their nasty things should get punished!!!! It’s not about ads or privacy! It’s just about being a product for a human being to use! Because on websites, we see magic; in real life, it’s hell. I know about government rules, like Marco Civil and LGPD, that only push big companies away from delivering good content! And I mean, as a person, the only question I have for them is: ISN’T IT TOO LATE?? To try to do this? I always believed that when you are inside someone’s land, the owner of the land is going to say all the rules the way he wants. But it’s already too much in the face! Every app in the store, everything has an ID, a session, a trace, a hardware ID, a live ID, a UUID, geolocation, IP, mic, and bla bla! I AM NOT AGAINST THAT. But this is what my OS shows me: “To improve your experience with Microsoft products we want to ask you to collect optional data from your device.” Until here, it was perfect. Until… “The websites you navigate??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????” I am going to say this for anyone: inside Windows, I only give what is given to me! Eye for an eye! Always open to talk, to give, to feed. But there’s this nasty thing enabling things and FORCING something!!! I read the contract. I think more than 50% of people don’t complete all the requirements: virtualization, aggregated connection, and bla bla. Here in Brazil, we have CGNAT—every dumb person sits on one IP. One rule breaks, hypervisor gets activated, the CPU’s virtual techs get active, another rule breaks! And you come to the bottom saying the product doesn’t have a guarantee? Guarantee for what? There’s no transparency to get the RIGHT product. And my final question: am I only going to have a human experience and a decent computer when I buy a computer from your listed affiliates or have a Copilot PC?

How (if possible) do I remove thi
Hi. Windows Update wants to install PowerShell v7.3.1 (x64) on my desktop computer, even though I already have newer version, PowerShell 7.6.3.0-x64, installed! I have tried a lot of those 'tips' found with a Google search, but 10+ restarts later, I still have the view seen on WU.jpg! Is there any way I can remove that annoying message? Have a nice day :-) WU.jpg WU2.jpgAfter selecting all the files, the CPU usage suddenly spikes when right-clicking the menu.
In File Explorer, after using Ctrl + A to select all files in the current folder, the context menu takes 3–5 seconds to appear when you right-click, and during this time, Task Manager shows a sudden spike in File Explorer’s CPU usage. When selecting only a few files, the context menu appears at a normal speed.
Why is Add-WindowsCapability so slow for RSAT?
We install RSAT for our technicians by using: Get-WindowsCapability -Name RSAT* -Online | Add-WindowsCapability -Online The download/install is incredibly slow, averaging about ~15 minutes per RSAT tool. There's a total of 21 RSAT tools to install so do the math. No network/traffic blocks. This works just as slow on an open home internet network. No difference between a one-liner approach or foreach logic WUServer is 0 in HKLM path of the registry CBS.log shows about ~10 minutes of Download Progress 49/100 (always at the 49/100 mark) DISM.log doesn't show anything useful Quick googling shows a lot of other people experience slowness. If we can't rely on Windows Update CDN, what's the alternative? Separately downloading, extracting, and storing the content on a network share is cumbersome for each time a new build/FU comes out.Let’s Make Microsoft Great Again
To the Microsoft Team, I write these words not as a demand, nor as a threat, but as a sincere reflection from someone who has admired your work for years. My voice is only one among millions, but it carries the weight of genuine passion for technology and for the vision that Microsoft once represented. I believe in the harmony between hardware and software, in respecting standards like JEDEC, and in building systems that feel like a perfect orchestra — CPU, GPU, RAM, and Kernel working together as one. That is the dream I hold, and the reason I continue to invest my time, energy, and money into your ecosystem. This is not about chasing “tops” or “flops.” It is about personal choice, about the trust that users place in Microsoft to deliver technology that respects individuality and empowers creativity. I do not ask for immediate answers. I only ask that these words be read, considered, and carried forward. Because deep down, I want to see Microsoft rise higher than ever before. Respectfully, [A concerned and passionate user]What is an enablement package?
Windows 11, versions 22H2 and 23H2 share a common core operating system with an identical set of system files. As a result, the new features in Windows 11, version 23H2 are included in the latest monthly quality update for Windows 11, version 22H2 but are in an inactive and dormant state. These new features will remain dormant until they are turned on through the “enablement package,” a small, quick-to-install “master switch” that activates the Windows 11, version 23H2 features. The enablement package is a great option for installing a scoped feature update like Windows 11, version 23H2 as it enables an update from version 22H2 to version 23H2 with a single restart, reducing update downtime. This enables devices to take advantage of new features now. For version 22H2 devices that receive updates directly from Windows Update or Windows Server Updates Services (WSUS), devices automatically get the enablement package by installing the feature update to Windows 11, version 23H2.Personal Microsoft Account stuck to old Teams‑Free Azure AD tenant - identity corruption
I have a personal Microsoft Account that was automatically linked to a Teams‑Free Azure AD tenant years ago. The tenant still appears in the Azure portal, but it is inaccessible and cannot be deleted. I cannot leave the tenant, and the admin account for the tenant no longer exists. Because of this, my personal Microsoft Account now has a corrupted work/school identity object attached to it. The symptoms include: Office.com rejects login and says I must use a work/school account OneDrive.com “Recent” fails to load (“Unknown render failure”) Azure portal shows the old Teams‑Free tenant but any action triggers errors I cannot leave or delete the tenant I cannot remove the directory object from my MSA I have opened 4 support requests, each of which turn into callback from supervisor after I repeatedly confirm I am not a commercial customer and I do not have a commercial account. All 4 times the supervisor says they are transfers me to the commercial team, but I just get transferred to a message saying, "We are closed", call back during business hours. Most recently this happened at 1:30 PM Central Time on a Monday. It's unlikely Microsoft is closed in the middle of the day. This is not a commercial tenant and not a business account. It is a personal Microsoft Account with a corrupted identity object caused by the old Teams‑Free provisioning. I need escalation to the Microsoft Account Identity Team, who can remove the corrupted directory object from my personal account. Has anyone seen this before or had it resolved?
