Windows are making user a lot of hard time. I bought the computer today with Windows 11 Pro installed. There is no way I can select Facial ID setup. After watching some youtube video, I got into the system --> optional features. But I accidently delete the feature. Now, I am adding back, but it takes almost 0.5 hour. Even I managed to add it back, it still could not find any way to set it up. Can someone help?25Views0likes1CommentI accidently uninstalled the IE Mode Option and I need to install it back but I can't find it
I was trying to Install Another Feature on Window 11, when I accidentally uninstalled the IE Mode Feature. Now, when I try to Install It, I can't see it anymore. I spoke to ChatGPT about this and it gave me this Command, but when I ran it, I got this Error: C:\Windows\System32>DISM /Online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:Browser.InternetExplorer~~~~0.0.11.0 Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool Version: 10.0.26100.5074 Image Version: 10.0.26200.7462 [==========================100.0%==========================] Error: 0x8000ffff DISM failed.

Windows 11 version 25H2 suddenly froze during normal use (keyboard and mouse unresponsive). The first occurrence happened during a Huorong antivirus scan. After reinstalling the system, the issue reappeared during gameplay. Seeking the root cause and a stable solution.43Views1like1CommentHistory on this device setting to Off. <--- Such an option is not available.

After installing the cumulative update for 23H2 following August 2025, key conflicts occur in games like Dragon Nest: Simultaneously pressing W and numeric keys (3/4/5, etc.) erroneously triggers the Q key. The hardware issue has been ruled out by replacing the keyboard. Seeking a software-level solution.15Views0likes1CommentWindows 11 24H2 (Build 26100.6899) (KB5066835) — Apps freeze when accessing camera or microphone
Windows 11 24H2 (Build 26100.6899) (KB5066835) — Apps freeze when accessing camera or microphone After installing the update 2025-10 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 24H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5066835) (26100.6899), multiple applications as well as the Settings app experience freezes or crashes seemingly whenever Windows attempts to enumerate audio/video devices or query app permissions. Even just opening the Google login page in Brave or Chrome freezes the browser, for example. (Interestingly, Edge does not freeze on the same page.) The issue appears to originate in the Capability Access Manager Service (camsvc), which deadlocks when handling capability access requests. How to reproduce Install Windows 11 Version 24H2 Build 26100.6899 with KB5066835. Open Settings → Privacy & security → App permissions → Camera (or Location or Microphone or pretty much any other page). → The Settings app immediately freezes. Launch any application that requests camera or microphone access (e.g., Brave, Chrome, Slack). → The app freezes or crashes. Note: Edge shows no camera or microphone devices but does not crash. Observed result The Settings app becomes unresponsive on any App permissions page. Many applications that attempt to access the camera or microphone (or presumably any device or service that queries app permissions) freeze or crash. Chrome and Brave freeze on login pages requiring Google account access (presumably camera/microphone enumeration triggers the freeze). Edge simply reports no devices found. Expected result Duh. Applications and the Settings app should enumerate camera and microphone devices normally without freezing or crashing. Workaround Disabling the Capability Access Manager Service (camsvc) via the registry or Services.msc (and stopping the service or rebooting) restores system stability and prevents all freezes and crashes: reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\camsvc" /v Start /t REG_DWORD /d 4 /f reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\camsvc" /v DelayedAutoStart /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f However: Applications cannot access the camera or microphone. All App permissions pages in Settings remain non-functional. Attempted troubleshooting Ran full DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image check & repair sequence followed by SFC /SCANNOW. → No effect. Issue persists across reboots. Problem (kind of) resolves only when Capability Access Manager Service (camsvc) is not running. Extensive chatting with GPT-5 in ChatGPT. Despite some hallucination, my AI buddy has been quite helpful. My system details Edition: Windows 11 Pro 24H2 Build: 26100.6899 Installed update: KB5066835 Other updates installed at the same time: KB5066131 (.NET 3.5/4.8.1), KB5068331 (.NET 8.0.21) Summary This appears to be a regression in KB5066835 affecting the Capability Access Manager subsystem. It causes deadlocks whenever capability enumeration APIs are invoked. Disabling the service stabilizes the system but at the cost of access to devices and services. A hotfix or updated cumulative patch is needed to restore normal functionality.Solved1.3KViews2likes11CommentsMedia Streaming on Windows 11
Hello! I'm trying to stream media from my Win11 PC to my Philips Android Smart TV, never had a problem with Win 10 It says "media streaming is turned off", so I click turn on "media Streaming" and I get a window saying "Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service or a service it depends on failed to start". If I try and manually start the "Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service" I get a message saying "Windows could not start Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service on local computer", "Error 1068 a dependancy service or group failed to start." which is great but which service or goup it doesn't say. The latest version on Media Player is so different to the previous version, It doesn't show a picture library and there does seem to be way of turning streaming on from media player as there was in the past. So I am at a loss, I've asked Copilot, but none of the suggested solutions appear to work. Any ideas would be helpful, please?25Views0likes1Comment
