When using Windows 11 on a Lenovo ThinkPad P1 6th Generation laptop, the system automatically downloads and prompts to install "Samsung"-branded drivers. It is currently unclear whether this phenomenon arises from internal Samsung components in the device requiring driver support or whether the system preemptively pushes universal drivers in anticipation of potential connections to Samsung phones. Is this update mandatory and absolutely necessary? We kindly request clarification on the origin of this "mysterious driver" and an assessment of its necessity for installation.18Views0likes0CommentsAlways on VPN Device Tunnel with IPv6 ikev2
Hi everyone, i have a huge Problem with always on VPN and IPv6. We have a working configuration, with RAS Server and Windows 11 Clients using always on VPN with IPv4 and computer certificates (IKEv2) from internal CA. External Clients connect over Internet to Firewall -> RAS -> VPN CONNECT (with certificate) -> Access to internal. Works. But now we are facing some problems with IPv6. Many Internet providers are working with IPv6 only Addresses for private internet connection. When users are trying to connect over IPv6 with their Certificate, it is not working. So, we tried to rebuild the configuration. I configured a second RAS Server for testing. I recreated the config and VPN settings but tried to connect from internal network, just to test connection for VPN with IPv6 without any routing problems or anything like that. Even if i try to connect to the RAS Server directly from the same Network (IPv6) it is not connecting. Server is reachable, configuration for IPV6 is set, certificate is installed, PKI is reachable... anything seems fine. But, as soon as i try to connect to RAS with IPv6 AND IKEv2 Certificate, it wont connect. It seems, that the client doesnt even really trying. I hit "connect" and in less than a second the error appears that it cannot connect. There is no real error message in eventlog or anywhere else. It's just saying... no, not working. So, my question is: Doese anyone ever had a working IPv6 Always on VPN Device Tunnel with Computer Certificates and IKEv2? Because i dont have any more ideas what could be the Problem!

Good morning Windows 10 offers me to upgrade to Windows 11, but I want to change my hard drive to upgrade to an SSD. Regarding the license, in what order should I take it? Another question, is the migration done via an update, or do you have to download an ISO?6Views0likes0CommentsBackup larger than copy on Windows computer?

Hi everyone, I’m facing a few strange issues on Windows 11 that seem to be limited only to my main user profile, and I’m hoping to fix them without creating a new profile and migrating all my data. Settings > Apps > Advanced app settings: I see a sign-in-related issue & an error code 0x80860010. The lock screen is skipped when the PC starts. On power-on or restart, the lock screen flashes for a split second, and then Windows directly goes to the PIN entry screen. This happens only on my main user account. If I create a new local or Microsoft account, the lock screen works perfectly even after a restart or cold boot. My Windows PC does not appear under Devices on my Microsoft account page, even though the PC is signed in with my Microsoft account locally. I’ve already tried restarting, signing out and back into my Microsoft account, checking sign-in options, and testing Fast Startup on and off. Since everything works fine on newly created accounts, I believe my existing user profile or account state may be corrupted. I’m trying to avoid creating a new profile and manually migrating data if possible. Any guidance on repairing the current user profile, re-linking the device to my Microsoft account, or restoring normal lock screen behavior would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help. ~Gourav57Views0likes2CommentsRecent windows 11 25H2 update memory leak
My first time posting, I am unsure if this has been Acknowledged or what’s the fix but, after the recent updates for windows 11 25H2, I also needed to update drivers, intel drivers and Nvidia Drivers. I’m using an HP omen 16, 32GB of ram, Intel Ultra 7, Nvidia RTX5080. Normally idling uses about 20% ram, I opened Microsoft PC manager and it now was idling at 40% ram usage. After checking task manager, it was WMIproviderhost hogging the ram. Mainly SecurityHealthService in the events WMI log errors. I’ve tried running sc stop SecurityHealthService and responded access denied as admin. I’ve tried changing the folder to SecurityHealth_old to promote a refreshed new folder. Access was denied (system owns it) I have tried the repair app feature for windows security, then reboot. Still slowly ramping memory up. I then reset windows security and rebooted. Still doing it. I’ve verifyrepository and WMI repository came back consistent. delivery optimization has been turned off so it’s not that recent issue and AppX, but WMIproviderhost had been steady climbing upwards of 500mb of ram usage before restarting comp. Any ideas?114Views0likes1CommentSD card photo transfer on Windows 11 computer
