Windows 11

I have a black screen with a cursor problem every time there's a Windows update.The update in question is the 2025-01 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5050092).I always have to restore the previous system version. I've tried disabling app readiness, updating the graphic card, restarting the display driver, and using automatic startup repair, but none of these worked.My question is: Is there any issue if I don't update Windows? Can I just avoid updating at all? Or is there any real solution for this issue?View the full article

Hello, I have a problem with my Asus UX325E. Two days ago, I installed a Windows 11 update, but my computer doesn't want to start anymore since then. So I basically have access to nothing but BIOS and several things like the safe mode which doesn't work. I tried to create a Windows 11 Installation Media on my USB stick, but when I put it in my computer, I come to the "Install driver to show hardware" window. "ESD-USB (C:)" and "Boot (X:)" are both displayed, but I got the error "Error, no pilot has been found" with both. I also tried installing Windows 10 instead of Windows 11 on my USB-StickView the full article

Hi, my OneDrive is set so that it saves everything on my phone, tablet, and laptop. I have a lot of junk on my laptop, and only want to keep a couple folders.
