HELP. INTERNET CONECTIVITY PROBLEMS.
Hi. I am Jason from Beaumont Texas and I am not stranger to the world of computers, the internet, or anything electronic for that matter. I use my PC for everything. I even have it hooked up to my 72" Samsung in the living room. I went to watch YouTube recently on my computer and found that the web page wouldn't load. I then tried Google and that page wouldn't load either. After some investigation I discovered that my son was messing around with some settings in the internet properties or something and changed something thinking he was going to make it work better. I don't know why because it was working fine but that's neither here nor there. Anyway, my point is he does not know what he changed and I can't figure out what he has done either. I have a Dell XPS running Windows 11 with a Netgear A7000 wireless adapter and a Netgear A7500 wireless adapter. Both adapters show that I'm connected to the internet but I cannot bring up a web page or do anything. I have tried everything that I know. . I have uninstalled and reinstalled both adapters and I have even done a network reset and restarted the computer. Can anyone help me. I am at the point of thinking about reinstalling windows, but I really don't want to have to do that. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much, Jason M.
Default apps file explorer
Since the last update files in file explorer folders do not use the default apps anymore. If I click on an image file it now always open in photo but my default is set to Photoshop. Same with pdf files they now only open in Acrobat reader. I need to open every file by right clicking and choosing the default app... very annoying...
Windows 11 version 26200.8457 experiences a memory leak when transferring files wirelessly
I got a new phone that supports the latest version of Phone Link, which allows me to access my phone's files directly in File Explorer. I tried to wirelessly transfer my entire music library to the phone, but the process frequently froze randomly and even disconnected. The next morning, I found that my laptop hadn't gone to sleep all night and was running extremely slowly. When I opened Task Manager, I saw that the Cross Device Service was using an unusually high amount of resources, and in the end, only a small number of files were successfully transferred. System version: 26200.8457

Windows Driver Policy - What is Active Use
Hi, I'm using an unsigned Windows driver. In the https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/the-windows-driver-policy-ecd2a78c-750c-415d-93f2-e37302ce0443 article, what is the definition of "Active Use" in the Evaluation Criteria "Your device must have accumulated 100 hours of active use"? And, is there a way to see my computer's remaining number of Active Use hours in Evaluation mode somehow? Thanks!
