  2. I've been thinking about upgrading my vram in my laptop and i found out that it is not possible to do so by the same way we do with physical rams. Then i found out about this increasing dedicated vram from BIOS or registry editor. I watched few videos about this and turns out it is really easy to do so, but I do know that it is not wise to mess around the BIOS as this will ruin the whole computer (Happened to me once, but that's a different story, lol). Therefore i need some opinions about this. Is it really okay to change the dedicated VRAM? What are the risks? will it affect my laptop's perfView the full article

  4. I recently updated my license key to windows 11 pro from the home version.I need to access the hyper v features.Always when i try to check hyper v req. with systeminfo on cmd i get this msg: Hyper-V Requirements: A hypervisor has been detected. Features required for Hyper-V will not be displayed.Which is odd because the service is completely deactivated but if i turn off svm in bios i suddenly do see the reqs, so i know that the hardware compatability is there its somehow still not working.i tried everything from disabling wsl and reinstalling hyper-v features etc still nothing changed. with sView the full article
  5. Windows keeps forcing a driver update for my Ncvidia RTX3060 GPU that will then cause my system to crash with a BSOD ('CRITICAL_PROCESS_FAILED) with no mini dump file created when it would happen. It took me like a month to figure out the root cause which i am 100% sure is a windows Nvidia driver labeled as 32.0.15.6094 (see below).This driver (shown above) is not even the most current driver for the RTX3060 GPU, which is currently 572.16 per the Nvidia web site.Why does Windows 11 (24H2) keep downloading and overriding the correct driver that i already have installed and how can this be stopView the full article

  11. I'm getting message from @accountprotection.microsoft.com in Chinese (I am Belgian living in Switzerland) giving me a security code to confirm my identity. As far as I can see from the Email Header, these messages are legit. I suspect that somebody in an Asian country is trying to get into my account. I checked my account activity and so far they haven't been able to. I'm trying to contact Microsoft somehow on the phone for them to take immediate action but I cannot find a number where I can call outside office hours. Can anybody help me?View the full article
  12. Question in red text below. This is the background...I installed SQL Server Management Studio v 20.2, but it fails to connect to the SQL Server.I tried to re-install SQL Express 2019. This fails because msoledbsql.msi is not installed, because "Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2022 (x64/x86, version 14.34 at minimum)" is not installed. I have found and downloaded VC_redist.x64.exe (thanks to a related question). I have run the VC_redist.x64 and it reports that "Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x64) - 14.30.30708" was successfully installed.I found and insView the full article

  14. I am unable to log into my account. I enter my password and I receive a message stating that the password has been entered incorrectly to many times and your account is locked, try again later. I try to change my password and I am given two security options, send a security code via email, and the email listed is not mine and not on the account. The other option is to send the security code via text. I enter the last 4 digits of my phone number and click send. The security code never arrives. I receive no text from Microsoft of any kind.

  15. Very similar to another thread however none of the solutions worked. I used the command Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay | Remove-AppxPackage, trying to get a clean install,. I saw on another thread to use the command Get-AppXPackage *Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}in powershell and it says access is denied, and in command prompt, it says "'Get-AppXPackage' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file."I do not know what to do now.View the full article

  20. We have a few clients that have randomly started having printer issues on all brands. The common era is driver unavailable. We have tried every single step to fix these printers. It was saying printing then say printing error. The printers work on other machines. We are all out of ideas, and we can't roll back the updates on most of the PCs. I have noticed that in Device Manager the broken printers will not go under the "Printers" Category, only under "Print Queues", and on some occasion "Software Devices"View the full article

  24. Hello. Yesterday, I created a new folder (let's call it B for a name) within an existing folder (named A). I then saved some files in the new folder B. Today, the B folder has vanished along with the files I had placed in it. Then, I also noticed other files that had been in folder A are missing too. How can this happen? What other folders and/or files may be missing? I design unique garment designs and have literally thousands of design files so it's difficult to determine what others may be missing too. I'm freaking out a bit. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!!View the full article
