2383 TopicsHow do I delete a post?
Hi-----> I submitted a post on Saturday, the 23rd. Microsoft Support was able to provide an answer that worked for me on Tuesday, the 26th. Under my profile it says that my post is "Under Review -- Your post has been received and is awaiting approval." But if I go to the chronological listing of the posts for Windows 11 my post is there. So how do I go about deleting that post? There is no "Report a concern" area or anything like that, so no ellipsis that I can select "Delete" and make the post disappear. Can someone figure this out? It has me baffled!!!!Solved49Views0likes2CommentsWindows 11 Memory bsod problems, how to fix?
Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to help. I’m using an Acer Nitro 5 AN515-58 laptop. The laptop has DDR5 Crucial 4800 MHz CL40 RAM modules, 16+16 GB for a total of 32 GB. I recently switched to Windows 11, and when both RAM sticks are installed together, I constantly get blue screens. I tested the RAMs in different combinations; the RAM sticks are fine, and the slots are also fine. The computer only works stably when a single RAM stick is installed. I also ran both RAM modules through Mem Test86, and they passed without errors. When Windows’ VBS feature is enabled, everything becomes more sensitive; with both slots populated, the number of BSODs increases. However, there is no issue in single-channel mode. I need VBS, so I do not want to disable it.9Views0likes0CommentsNew high-end computer... but now what?
Hey there, guys! I recently purchased the parts for a new high-end computer, which are as follows: CPU: AMD Ryzen 9950X3D. RAM: Corsair Vengeance 64gb (2x32) RAM DDR5 6000 MT/s CL30. GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 (ROG Astral). MOBO: ASUS ROG Strix X870-E Gaming WiFi. COOLING: Corsair iCUE Link Titan 420 RX RGB AIO. PSU: Corsair RM1200x Shift ATX 3.1 (1200W). CASE: Corsair 7000D Airflow. SSD'S: Crucial T705 2tb for main and Samsung 990 Pro 4tb for second. HDD's: none so far, waiting to see if prices drop a bit on the IronWolf Pro. I work with heavy datasets and these are the specs I thought were more than ideal. Now, while the components slowly arrive I'm suddenly kind of unsettled. I've been reading this subreddit (and others similar to this one) for years, and these past months while looking for info regarding our new computer I've come across lots of recommendations on what to do once the computer is built. For example, some people recommend connecting the MOBO to the Internet before adding any more components so the MOBO's drivers are updated before going on with the rest of the building process. What I don't know is if by then the CPU should be in already or not. Other things have to do with Windows installation. In my previous builds (2017 and 2019) I used a USB drive with a copy (an image?) of my Windowsm taken from my previous computer, and then I used a license so that I could use it, but I've been reading more and more about an easier way through GitHub or something like that? Also, I'm pretty up to date with the MOBO and CPU dramas, regarding high-end Ryzen CPU's, but it seems they aren't affecting this specific set I've chosen. And I also know about all the drama with the pins for the GPU, although I haven't seen many solutions for that other that trying to limit it or control it some other way. Any news regarding that? Maybe something to do with using a specific kind of cable. As you can see, right now I'm suffering from information paralysis, so any kind of tip or help whatsoever is very welcomed.8Views0likes0CommentsHow to upgrade to Windows 11 for free in 2026?
Running an older PC that's been on Windows 10 for years and starting to think about upgrading to Windows 11 before support runs out. The machine works perfectly fine for everyday tasks so replacing it isn't really on the table, but the Windows 11 compatibility checker flagged it as unsupported due to TPM 2.0 and CPU requirements. Done some reading and it seems like there are ways to work around the hardware requirements and still get Windows 11 installed, but a lot of the guides online are outdated or contradictory. Not entirely sure which method still works for upgrading to Windows 11 for free in 2026 and which ones have been patched out or cause issues down the line with updates. Anyone gone through this recently on an older or unsupported machine?131Views0likes10CommentsWindows 11 reinstall = Crappy USB changes?
I have a PC here I built myself. I recently reinstalled Windows 11. Now my usb stuff is no longer listed by name. For example a device that used to be identified as Ayn Thor will now be identified as MTP USB device. The connection is also extremely flakey like I will try to browse my Ayn Thor to upload something to it or download a video from it and explorer will crash on my PC. I've never encountered anything like this so I'm not sure what to do to sort it out. I figured it was a driver issue but I'm struggling to find what driver to replace with what driver as they all seem to be working.18Views0likes1CommentFinal Confirmation on my build on Windows 11
I've done a bunch of research on my first pc build and I'm pretty much ready to buy all my parts but I'm looking for some confirmation, opinions, suggestions, alternatives, optimisations, etc. on my build and whatever wisdom you'd like to give to a first-time builder. Also I have a 1920x1080 60hz secondary monitor at home already. Side note: The reason I have two SSDs is because I intend to dual-load Windows 11 on the 500GB drive and SteamOS on the 1TB drive. The theory is that I will have a much more resource efficient spot for storing my games and stopping Windows bloat from hogging my resources. Tell me if this is stupid or not because I haven't figured out if it's a good idea or not. (No, I don't want to get Linux)9Views0likes0CommentsCreate a bootable Windows 11 USB installer for both old and new PCs?
There are 7 old Windows 10 PCs and three brand new PCs in my company to be upgraded to Windows 11 as Windows 10 was officially end of life. What is the best way to make a bootable Windows 11 installer with USB drive for all of the PCs? The current situation: Need to upgrade multiple company PCs to Windows 11 Want to use a USB drive as the installation media PCs are currently running Windows 10 I have legitimate Windows 11 licenses for each machine The questions: What size USB drive do I need? (I've seen 8GB mentioned but want to confirm) For upgrading existing PCs (not clean installs), should I boot from USB or run setup from within Windows? Are there any TPM 2.0 / Secure Boot gotchas I should watch out for on older company hardware? Is there a way to skip the Microsoft account requirement during setup for work machines joined to a domain?118Views0likes10CommentsHoe kan ik YouTube naar MP3 converteren op Windows 11?
Hallo allemaal, Ik ben op zoek naar een goede manier om YouTube-video’s naar MP3 te converteren op mijn Windows 11-pc. Er zijn online heel veel converters te vinden, maar veel daarvan zien er nogal verdacht uit met pop-ups, advertenties of onduidelijke downloadknoppen. Daarom gebruik ik liever geen online tools. Heeft iemand ervaring met een betrouwbare desktop-app voor Windows 11 waarmee je YouTube naar MP3 kunt omzetten? Het liefst iets dat eenvoudig werkt, goede audiokwaliteit behoudt en geen rommel of extra software installeert. Welke programma’s raden jullie aan? En zijn er dingen waar ik op moet letten voordat ik zo’n app installeer?50Views0likes9CommentsQuestion about itunes mp3 music download onto my Windows 11 PC
Hello, I have a music library in iTunes on my Windows 11 PC and would like to save some of the songs as MP3 files so I can play them on other devices that don't support the Apple Music app. The truth is that some of the music was purchased from iTunes years ago, while other tracks come from my current Apple Music subscription. Not sure whether iTunes can convert iTunes songs to MP3 or if there are any restrictions. What is the easiest way for iTunes mp3 music download on Windows 11? Are there built-in options in iTunes, or do I need additional software?120Views0likes9Comments
