Can I turn a screenshot into a hyperlink without saving it first?
I'm trying to take a screenshot of something on a web page—like a person's image—and then use that screenshot as a URL or hyperlink to paste directly into Google Images search, without actually downloading or saving the image file first. I know this is possible using the Google Lens feature built into Chrome, but I'm wondering if there's any way to do something similar using Windows 11's default tools. I haven't found anything built-in that works like that. If not, does anyone know of a third-party tool that can do this? Specifically, capture a screenshot and use it as a search query or link without storing it locally first.Ecran gris au démarrage de Windows 11

June 9th Update - Buggy Start Menu Category View
Hi, The latest cumulative update from June introduced a new Start menu and disrupted its behavior in certain situations. Normally, it would allow you to set one of the following view options: Category, Grid, or List. This setting should have persisted. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Under certain circumstances, Windows keeps reverting to the Categories view, regardless of your previous selection. According to https://james-rankin.com/articles/quickpost-windows-11-start-menu-reverts-to-category-view-after-group-policy-refresh/?trk=public_post_comment-text, this issue stems from a bug in combination with specific GPOs. My conclusion is that Microsoft introduced a bug in the June update. Surprisingly, little information is available when searching for this issue online. This seems particularly true when reviewing the GPOs mentioned in the article, which include certain advertisement and tracking options. I am surprised by how little is documented about this online. Personally, this only affects my company machines due to one or two of those GPOs, I suspect. I wonder how many others in this community are also affected by this bug.

When signing in to Windows 11 using a touchscreen or tablet, the on-screen keyboard pops up but often obscures the password field, making it difficult to see what you're typing. Dragging the keyboard only moves it temporarily; it returns to its original position the next time you sign in. This issue occurs on Surface devices and other touch-enabled Windows laptops.Can't Get Phone Link to Work
everybody. I just got a new phone and have been trying to get Phone Link to work. Yesterday it said to try again tomorrow, and today it's doing the same thing. It will ask me to put a number in Authenticator when I'm already in it, and there's no place to put a number. It has asked me to go to three of my email apps, to give me a code and when I try to put it in it says something like "Try again later, or if not try tomorrow" It asks me to login with a passkey when I don't have or know my passkey. It will ask me to login using my Microsoft Account and when I enter ****@hotmail.com or ****@live.com and put in my password which I know is correct because I keep it in my password manager and it always works, it will say wrong password. I'm at my wit's end. I have never had a problem with any of my previous phones. When I chatted with MS support they told me to delete phone link "link to Windows" from my phone and reinstall it, but I don't see any way to uninstall it. Today it's telling me to scan a QR code on my PC and the QR code never shows up, even if I go to the site it tells me go to if I can't see it. I'm older and have disabilities. My eyesight is poor and I have problems typing on my phone. I like to use the full size keyboard on my PC.
Where can I get a list of all installed Programms and start them?
Just something like a "Programm" List. I can't even start excel on the up to date start menue - because it is't listed till after 15min of a running pc. Other programs that are correctly installed are nowhere to be found and need to be started completely manual. So where or how can I turn off this new "features" and get the old program list? without any widgets and ribbons. Thanks for information, Best regards MartinKB5101650 breaks Microsoft Store app update toggle (even for admins)
So I installed the latest Windows 11 security update (KB5101650) and ran into something weird in the Microsoft Store. Trying to turn off the "App updates" toggle throws an error asking for administrator privileges—even though my account is already an admin. Makes zero sense. Tried the usual fixes, nothing worked. Ended up uninstalling the update and the toggle went back to working normally immediately. Curious if anyone else has run into this or if I just got lucky with a weird one-off.
