Windows 11

After the last update, at some point I tried to right click the bottom left windows icon to pull up the old style computer list, and the only thing that happened is a tiny box appears that if clicked on does nothing. The only way to get rid of that little box is to click on the desktop.When I left click I get the new style of icons and choices. So now I don't have the ability to shut down or restart my computer using that Icon.I've tried restarting, I've tried going into task manager and restarting windows explorer, neither works. Looking forward to you guys helping me resolve this issue.ThankView the full article

Hi Microsoft Community,I have been trying to do some in place upgrades on some of our Automation laptops from 23H2 to 24H2. I get an error message saying that "Rockwell Studio 5000 Logix Designer isn't compatible with this OS". Rockwell has been silent about this issue when I have asked and since I don't have an active support agreement with Rockwell, they won' tell me anything so I have come to you for help. Does anyone have any information on this when Windows 11 24H2 will be compatible? I'm being told that if you uninstall it, do the in-place upgrade, and try to reinstall it, Studio 500View the full article

the past 2 days my gpu usage is way higher then normal, when i'm on the home page it’s at 50-70%, when i load into a game it bumps all the way up to 95-100%. i've already updated my drivers and that didn't fix it. i tried uninstalling and reinstalling that didn’t work either, i scanned for malware and found nothing. the only way i can lower it is by lowering the graphic quality all the way to 1 but that still has it at around 60-70%. i really don’t know what is wrong it was working fine on max quality before.

I wanted to access some files on C drive but my access was denied. I tried giving changing access permission from System to other user but it still did not work. In the end I tried changing ownership of the C Drive and I gave permission to change all the windows files to apply changes. Now my main problem is that my Start Menu and Search bar does not open. I have tried changing the ownership to System again but no use. I also tried to restore with a restore point and Sfc and Dism commands and it did not work. I’m worried how do I fix this issue. Hope you will reply on this topic soon.Thank youView the full article

I'm working on streaming motion data from a server to HoloLens 2 which happens under a specific port that is not listed in HoloLens allowed ports. Is there a way do disable the firewall so that I can receive data on any port?Details: The streaming is done through OptiTrack Motive and Unity which works when simulated on PC but doesn't work when deployed to Hololens 2.If there are any other ways to solve the issue without disabling the firewall, that'll work as well.Thank you!View the full article

I recently bought a new Lenovo Laptop with Windows 11 as the operating system. About a month ago, whenever I would print a PDF, the tops of the page and page numbers would be cut off. In this new system I do not have control over borders or margins in my printer settings. I know it is not the HP printer itself, because I do not have any issues when printing from my old HP laptop (Windows 10) or from my iPhone. I have had the printer for four years and have never run into this issue before. Window support also looked into the issue for me and could not find a solution: I simply do not have theView the full article

So one time, i was listening to music on youtube, i was reading the comments, they were pretty old, like 11 years. I then saw a comment asking if he could use the music in his video, back then, i kept making jokes and wasn't serious, i said yes to him, even though i wasn't the person who produced the music. He then replied with i am retired now, but thanks. I didn't think of it until one day ago, i then thought: What if he wants to use it, he thinks he has permission, then he can get a copyright claim and then i will be the person to blame and then i have to pay the price...I immediately typedView the full article
