323 TopicsPL2303 issues (Prolific USB to Serial Drivers) Win 11
I have come across an issue that I don't if anyone has come across and found a fix? I have a few handheld radios that I need to update the frequencies and when I connect to the USB, it fails to connect. In device manager and Ports it says - "Please install corresponding PL2303 driver to support Windows 11 and further OS" I have tried different ways and still it won't update drivers/COM ports. I've run out of ideas (as for a novice). Has anyone been across this and sorted it? Thanks, Cundy66Solved1.7MViews2likes68CommentsWIndows 11 WIFI Adapter has disappeared
Hello all, Just joined today as I am having a nightmare. Any advice is at all appreciated. Today my wireless adaptor completely disappeared. I loaded it up and there is no option to connect to a wi-fi adapter. I have: Reset the machine. Done a network reset. Used troubleshooting. Uninstalled the driver. Reset my system BIOS to factory settings. Completely re-installed windows. Downloaded the Intel drivers onto a USB stick and re-installed them. I have a Medion PP645-MD61361, it does not have an ethernet connection which makes things even harder. The Intel adaptor no longer shows in my device manager, it's completely gone. However a "Network Controller" has showed up in Other Devices but I can't update it with the intel drivers or the internet as I don't have access to it on that machine. Can anybody shed some light as to what I might have missed please? Thank you, Thomas28KViews0likes16CommentsMicrosoft Print to PDF Missing

Hello! I have a question about Windows 10 upgrading to Windows 11. I have noticed that on my PC, a Lenovo IdeaPad L340, that runs Windows 10, has the capabilities to run Windows 11. When I checked for updates, the message saying that I can upgrade to Windows 11, wasn't there. The PC Health Check app said my PC can run Windows 11. I'm a little confused. Anyone know why this is happening & how to troubleshoot it? I tried rebooting my device & that did nothing. There is an update that is available for Windows 10, but when I rebooted my device, it said "Working on updates" so is that why Windows 11 isn't available? Thanks in advance!Solved15KViews1like10CommentsMicrosoft App Store issue
So, I went to log into the Microsoft App Store and download windows defender and it asked for my pin and it worked but then it asked for a code that it sent to an email I didn’t recognize. It was like S****@163.com and I know that email is not mine. I’m not sure what to do. I know a whole back I had malware on my pc and I cleaned it out but it seems there is leftover issues. Long story short I now can’t download anything off the App Store and want to figure out how to get that email off. please and thank you for any help.15KViews0likes1CommentDownload Windows iso on Android sd card

Hi everyone, I'm experiencing a frustrating issue with my Windows 11 computer. For some reason, Yahoo keeps opening automatically in Google Chrome, even when I’m not trying to access it. This happens frequently and interrupts my workflow. I've checked my browser settings and extensions, but I can't find anything unusual. I’ve also cleared my browser cache and cookies, but the problem persists. Has anyone else faced a similar issue or knows how to stop this from happening? Thank you!9.9KViews11likes10CommentsHow I save or create a new restore points in another disk?
I want to save or create my restore points in another disk that there isn't a Windows installed, remember the restore points save many people must format the PC in case of some problem and I want to save these points in another disk, because I don't want my restore points to consume my principal space disk and is good you save more of 5 restore points at least, so, how I save or create new restore points in another disk using the task scheduler?9.7KViews1like7Comments
