522 TopicsWhatsApp Windows app: No way to sync to phone, no way to backup chats
Windows 11 v. 25H2 When I installed the Windows WhatsApp app, I linked it to my phone. 99% of my messages are on the Microsoft App, not on my phone. There seems to be no way to link them, or to backup. The two devices are not connected, and there is no way to sync them. According to AI, they are likely running separately, on separate programs --- one on the phone, and one on the Windows App None of my backups are saved anywhere on Windows. AI had me look in several places, and they just aren't there. There seems to now be no way to update the app or backup what is there without forwarding it chat by chat to myself, but even then, it can't be restored. Is there something AI missed? Is there any way to fix this without losing all of my chats? My son lives in Europe and all of our chats are on the Windows WhatsApp app.24Views0likes2CommentsThinkstation P310 SFF operating system missing after KB5083769 update
I was wondering if anybody had the same problem after installing. The computer has a Western Digital NVme drive. After restarting the computer the system would post with the message: Error 1962: No operating system found. Boot sequence will automatically repeat. I accessed the bios and disabled the secure boot and reset the certificate, saved the settings, restarted, windows update finished and was able to get to the desktop. Are there any other instances happening out there? Or, is this a common thing happening?40Views0likes1Commenthelp with ram usage

I am now at a complete loss. I have been online with Windows support and after hours of trying to fix my problem they have told me they cant help and I should look for help elsewhere. This kind of feels weird and strange if Microsoft cant fix a Microsoft problem. I have Windows11 Pro (25H2) and cannot create a recovery drive. All the usual fixes have been tried and no joy. For example. Cannot down load Recover version to use. Have Downloaded both ISO English (USA & International) Cannot do a install as it say it cant confirm if my pc is compatible with windows11. It is of course and windows runs (Almost Well) currently. Have replaced install.wim also install.esd no success. Everything else was tried by Microsoft. Any comment would be very welcomed.72Views1like5CommentsSell you a broken Product; Charge you to fix it...
That's basically the characterization I have for Microsoft Windows. Each OS upgrade has become progressively worse. Win 11 is the latest in a parade of failing OS versions, which boggle the user's minds. I blame it on the abusive practice of H1 Visa outsourcing. Those 'developers' are giving us exactly what their employer is paying for. Win 11 just illustrates that they can't hide the elephant anymore. The key difference is in how users and developers perceive desktop metaphor. Clearly not in sync. In the beginning. the plan was simple. Evolve the tasking of file management from dark, herculean path navigation to eye-candy point, click and drag navigation. It was pretty brilliant and sensible. It should have ended there, save for some tweaks on file manipulation. The metaphor enveloped a western philosophy: Meet the target objective in its simplest, most efficient, cost-effective manner. In other words, task goals were tacit and conclusive. But then, under the auspices of H1 recruiting, that western tact morphed into a new metaphor. The "Zen" of design. Ends became secondary and the metaphor changed to means...or "process illustrious". Thus, the marketing sales pitch used to be...'Find the meaningful solution to a specific, meaningful problem and then build the button to execute the solution'. Now the pitch is: 'Build a button and see if we can tie it back to something useful'. As such, Windows has grown into a smoking Jalopy; replete with endless bells and whistles. To be fair, there is evidence that suggests they can still maintain reasonable security updates...until they can't. Seems like an endless chase. If I were CEO of Microsoft... I think I would fire the entire Windows Development Team and start new, clean slate on de-behemothing this arduous OS. My screening would necessarily require high triple Digit IQs, with a pension for OCD. The success of windows rests exclusively on the team that develops it. It's just a pity that marketers got their meat hooks on the product. Nary a bigger collection of shoe-shufflers than them. As suggested; Microsoft is the only company I know of that can sell you a broken product and then charge you money to fix it.Solved66Views0likes4CommentsNetwork connections delayed
Running Windows 11. Until a few days ago, my laptop would always boot up connected to the internet as soon as the desktop displayed. Suddenly it started booting up showing a globe icon in the systray Clicking on that icon pops up a solid black small window where things like wi-fi, bluetooth, airplane, etc would normally show. After 30 to 50 seconds, the globe turns into the wi-fi icon and it's connected to the internet. I've tried the few fixes I found on the web, but none work. How can I get the "instant" connection working again?107Views0likes6CommentsIncident critique : Edge Sync “Uninitialized”, appareils disparus, identité WAM/MSAL corrompue
Bonjour, Je rencontre un incident critique affectant directement mon identité Microsoft (MSA). Il ne s’agit pas d’un problème local mais d’un dysfonctionnement côté serveur. Donc entre autres Microsoft Edge ne se synchronise plus, mes appareils n'apparaissent plus sur mon compte (pour la localisation par exemple) et d'autres problèmes de synchronisations (presse papier entre mes appareils ne fonctionne plus...) Voici les éléments techniques constatés : - Le conteneur Edge Sync de mon compte est en état “Uninitialized”. - Tous mes appareils ont disparu de mon compte Microsoft (Device Registration cassé). - Les services d’identité WAM / MSAL / OneAuth ne se réinitialisent plus correctement. - Impossible de créer de nouveaux passkeys ou d’utiliser les services dépendants de l’identité cloud. On dirait que ça nécessite une intervention côté serveur : réinitialisation des identités WAM/MSAL, du conteneur Edge Sync et du Device Registration. Je reste à l'écoute de toute aide en vous remerciant par avance. PS : Information complémentaire : Réinstallations propres de Windows 11 (avec d'abord un compte local → compte MS, et une configuration directe du compte MS). dsregcmd /leave et /join. Effacement du TPM. Mise à jour du chipset/BIOS/Windows vers les dernières versions. Suppression manuelle de l'appareil dans le portail (impossible il réapparait !). Connexion et déconnexion de mon compte Microsoft, passage à un compte local puis retour au compte MS, etc. Le problème de synchronisation de Edge est apparu à 99% suite à un démarrage en mode sans échec et le lancement de EDGE ! Le problème s'est propagé après sur tous mes PC et même sur une installation "fraiche" A la base mon pc apparaissait sur mon compte et je pouvais le localiser en ligne... le problème est apparu après plusieurs formatage/installations successifs ! J'ai formaté parce que j'avais deux soucis toujours pas résolus (même plusieurs après formatage) : 1- Mes applications au démarrage mettent beaucoup de temps à démarrer après l'ouverture de ma session sauf si je lance le gestionnaire des tahces (!!!!) et la tout se lance en qlq secondes 2- Problème, c'est que j'ai deux clés de registres qui réapparaissent à l'adresse Ordinateur\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU et ça bloque les MAJ si je supprime les clés du registre elles reviennent au démarrage !58Views0likes3Comments
