Hi Folks! I want to upgrade the Windows version of my AMD Ryzen 3 laptop. Previously, I was using Windows 11, version 21H2 but past few weeks, it has started giving me a hard time, no automatic Windows Upgrade anymore. I researched this and found that my Laptop's hardware (CPU) does not meet the requirements needed for Windows 11. I was advised to install Windows 10, but I want Windows 11 with the upgraded version 22H2, at least, if possible.2Views0likes0Commentsurgent! i need help on how to copy & paste number ID from a webpage to excel

Joeun Park’s MVP story is not defined by a single breakthrough, but by decades of steady, intentional progress. With more than 20 years of experience as a developer, she began coding long before developer communities and content platforms became mainstream. Over time, she navigated shifting technologies, industries, and life stages, continuously reshaping her role. After many years as a backend engineer, a major life transition prompted her to expand into data science, content creation, education, and community leadership—ultimately leading to her work as the founder of TodayCode and as a Microsoft MVP. Park’s journey into software development began early. She wrote her first programs in elementary school using GW-BASIC, exploring computers out of pure curiosity rather than career ambition. In middle and high school, she became deeply involved in PC communication communities, where people built things together, shared knowledge, and learned collaboratively. Many of the connections she formed during that time remain active today, with peers still working as developers. She studied Information and Communications Engineering at university and later pursued a master’s degree in Information and Computer Education, originally intending to become a teacher. However, abrupt policy changes drastically reduced hiring for computer teachers nationwide. Faced with a closing door, Park pivoted back to industry—a decision that came with significant challenges. At a time when discriminatory interview questions were commonplace, she reportedly submitted nearly 3,000 applications before securing her first role at an IT company in Korea. From there, her career gained momentum. Over the next decade, she worked as a backend developer across diverse domains, including gaming and advertising. Each transition brought new business contexts and new technical stacks—ASP, PHP, Django, Ruby on Rails—often outside what was considered “mainstream.” Park viewed these shifts not as disadvantages, but as training. She believed that once the core principles of software engineering were understood, adapting to new languages and frameworks was possible. Working in smaller teams, she often took on overlapping roles as a backend engineer, data analyst, and data engineer—experience that would later support her transition into data science. Python Korea User Group for over ten years. These long-term community roles strengthened her belief that sustainable growth happens faster when people learn together. Community involvement was another central pillar of her growth. Park has been active in the Python Korea User Group for over ten years, consistently contributing through knowledge sharing and community engagement. She has also participated in PyCon Korea both as a speaker and as an organizer, helping shape the conference from behind the scenes as well as from the stage. These long-term community roles strengthened her belief that sustainable growth happens faster—and more meaningfully—when people learn together. A major turning point came after two years of parental leave. Upon attempting to return to work, Park faced pressure to resign. While formal processes allowed her to return on paper, there was no longer a team or role prepared for her. Eventually, she chose to leave the company. Rather than viewing this period as a pause, she treated it as preparation. She committed to a personal rule: do something every day. Her “one commit a day” practice—sometimes no more than a single line of text or a comment—became a way to maintain continuity, confidence, and momentum. In 2017, she launched a YouTube channel called TodayCode, meaning “share what you learned today” and “write code today.” What started as a personal learning log quickly evolved into a platform. Her early content focused on hands-on, practical topics such as Kaggle, public data analysis, and applied data workflows—addressing a gap she saw in overly theoretical materials. As the audience grew, so did invitations to teach, consult, and collaborate. TodayCode became a company, and Park’s professional identity expanded to include data scientist, creator, educator, mentor, and community organizer. Her sustained contributions were eventually recognized with her selection as a Microsoft MVP. Park’s impact lies in demonstrating that small, consistent actions can fundamentally reshape a career—especially when setbacks occur. Her daily commit habit is not about visibility or metrics; it is about continuity. Even on days when progress feels minimal, continuing to act builds confidence and keeps learning active. Over time, those small actions compound into real skills, tangible outcomes, and new opportunities. She defines a successful developer as someone who helps others grow. Through YouTube, teaching, mentoring, and long-term community involvement, she has worked to create environments where beginners and non-traditional learners can progress sustainably. Her decade-long engagement with the Python Korea User Group and her contributions to PyCon Korea exemplify this philosophy in practice: knowledge grows when shared, and communities accelerate individual growth. By openly sharing her experiences around parental leave and career disruption, she has also contributed to broader conversations about fairness and sustainability in tech. Her work as an MVP reflects not just technical expertise, but long-term community building. Joeun Park’s story is a reminder that careers can be refactored—sometimes by choice, sometimes by circumstance—but rarely without consistency. If you are questioning your direction or navigating change, start smaller than you think you need to. Make one commit. Write one note. Share one thing you learned. Those actions add up. And if possible, step into a community. Learning and growing together often changes not just the speed of progress, but its meaning.

I’ve been working to migrate all files and settings from an old Win 10 pc to a new Win 11 pc. I wanted to use the built-in windows backup tool with One Drive because that seems to be the easiest and most comprehensive way to move files, settings, and everything else. While getting started, trying to follow Microsoft instructions, I accidentally created a second Microsoft account. I want to use that new account going forward because I need to close down the install4you.com domain (I own it) completely. The two accounts are mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons (older account) and mailto:eddie.dobelstein@gmail.com (new account). For the sake of less typing, I’ll refer to those accounts as i4y and gmail. When I set up my old Win 10 computer, it was common just to use a local account and NOT combine logging into it with logging into a Microsoft account. I set up a local account on that computer based on the i4y email. Now settings/accounts/your info shows “E____ D_______, i4y, Administrator.” At some point, during an update, without understanding what Microsoft was telling me to do, I connected the existing local account to my Microsoft i4y account. I can’t get back to the local account I used originally. I need to change the i4y address to the gmail address so my data will flow correctly from my Win10 pc, through One Drive, to my new Win11 pc. For the OneDrive process to work, both computers must use the same Microsoft account. I tried using account.live.com/names/manage and logged in as i4y. I tried to add the gmail address (so I could make it primary) and got the message that it already exists-please use another. I’m afraid I’ll have to delete the gmail Microsoft account (& lose the work I've done setting it up) so I can change the primary email on the old computer. I’m also afraid that if I delete the gmail account, the email address won’t be freed up until the waiting period is over for Microsoft to completely delete the account. Maybe the email address won’t be freed up at all. I know I messed up in several ways. I used to be really good with computers, but I blinked and got too far behind to catch up. (I kinda got old too.) I just need to get everything on my new laptop so I can use it, Thanks for anyone who has the mercy to help. Eddie34Views0likes3CommentsMicrosoft Azure: Creating Teams Chat Analytics for individuals

Hello Wondering if anyone has any idea why this is happening. When I use "shift+u" nothing happens, however if I use "caps+u" the result is what you would expect. I have uninstalled my keyboard drivers updated windows but its still happening. All other keys work fine. Keyboard is a Logitech G213 Windows 11 Version 24H246Views0likes2CommentsIs there a way to access the file transfer dialogue processes using UWP in Windows 11?
I did not see a third party tool that existed for showing additional options for file conflicts. Windows XP has several options during a conflict. I am looking to improve the file conflict dialogue box in windows 11. I would like to add additional details prior and during a file transfer. The dialogue should include these details: File Name File Size Summarized (highest memory allocation) Size Detailed (measured in KB) Date Modified Date Created HASH MD5 SHA256 There should be an option to select during the conflict to keep: Newer Larger Rename file During the transfer there should be copy progress in percentage and amount of data transferred. I've been reading through the Microsoft documentation, but I can't find any handles on changing the file conflict dialogue except for this little bit. I need the solution to integrate into Windows Explorer. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/develop/ui/controls/dialogs-and-flyouts/ https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/files/quickstart-using-file-and-folder-pickers https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/files/fast-file-properties Is there any documentation or handles for showing additional file details in C++, C#, PowerShell, Regedit, or Shell Extensions? Comparing older methods, it looked like they used a prompt suppressor then passed the value to the system, but I'm not seeing that as an option anymore. It looks like it is gone in Windows 11. Any other way and it looks like I would have to modify an existing open source explorer to create the necessary changes. Many users would be displeased by that.5Views0likes0CommentsFormula/method to link the data/responses I get from my forms into a different table.

Excel Tools for Network & Windows Some time ago I already shared an earlier version of this project. Since then, I have added several new features. These tools are based on functionalities that already exist in Windows and its associated software. I have consolidated them into a single Excel-based interface, allowing all tools to be executed directly from Excel. The files are free for private use. For business or enterprise environments, a more comprehensive toolbox can be developed, enabling direct support, repair, management, monitoring, and control of users and systems. Everything can be customized according to specific requirements — the scope depends solely on the desired functionality, time investment, and budget. I appreciate any positive feedback, suggestions, or constructive tips. If this project is not of interest to you, please feel free to ignore it. Thank you, and I wish everyone happy holidays.49Views1like2CommentsCan't find facial ID setup on Windows 11 Pro
