Windows 11

Im not sure if images will show up since they say failed to upload constantly but basically, i recently updated to all the new windows 24h2 stuff, and I normally browse task manager pretty often to make sure nothing weird's going but this caught my eye. In task manager i have all the options selected so i can see name, publisher, process name, and commandline. But specifically the command line on CTF Loader changed to a long, "/QuitInfo:0000000000288;00000000002" before it cuts off. I couldn't find any information online about a command line like this but I've done stuff like SFC /scannow, as View the full article

System: HP Pavilion Pro 14"Windows 11 ProSince the fingerprint option only works 1/2 the time, I wanted to set up Windows Hello facial recognition. Going through set up, it recognizes a camera (doesn't say which one). However, the image set up screen is totally blurry - as if a black cloth was covering the lens - and therefore it fails to capture an image and won't complete the set up. Aside from the native HP Truevision camera, I have a Logitech 930c webcam set up as an external camera. The Device Mgr also shows an IR camera. There is also a third camera (USB2.0 FHD UHV) listeView the full article

My EPSON ET-4850 printer no longer recognizes my Lenovo laptop as a recipient device for scanning (the laptop is less than three months old-as of 3/10/25). The printer recognizes my laptop, but the scanner does not. What settings should I adjust to fix this? I've turned the scanner off and on a few times. I also enabled Microsoft Smart Print to ensure there are no driver issues. Help!View the full article

My son has a laptop which he uses mostly for school and a gamer PC which - you wouldn't expect it - he doesn't use for school. I want to set separate screen time limits for both devices but somehow Microsoft Family Safety does not allow for this. I've found various threads saying that I can select the devices separately and then delete one of the devices but no matter what I've tried, no luck. I don't want to remove my son from the Family Safety group as suggested in some places as that would defeat the purpose of the exercise. I am the administrator of my family group and my son is a regular View the full article

I see several posts that are months old, dating back to June of last year. I've been using OneDrive since 2019, and this issue just happened to me yesterday. I can hardly function this way. I have two clients that use OneDrive, at the moment it is only affecting one. I unlinked and re-downloaded and nothing has changed. The folder I need is not even showing up in the "choose folders" anymore. I cannot afford to continually have to download, send, upload, save, etc. again and again on files. Please tell me this has been resolved. View the full article

Yet more microphone/headset problems with Windows 11. Why does Windows periodically forget my Headphones have a microphone yet Macs and phones don't? Bluetooth Skullcandy Hesh ANC 2s. They work flawlessly with everything else but not Windows because after years, Microsoft still can'r design an operating system that actually works well enough.This is an impediment on my job too.I just removed the device and rediscovered and paired it. Imagine my surprise when it no longer recognises the mic at all now but chooses a different mic (which I cannot swap). Please tell me how I fix this.View the full article

Windows installed two updates on 3/9/25 and now over 475 GB (ALL of my disc space) is consumed! How can this problem be corrected?

My camera says it is blocked or switched off by a button. Nothing is blocking the camera and I cannot locate a "camera" button to switch back on. In the settings tool, "use systems settings" is clicked on. In the "Privacy & security > Camera" setting, the toggle button is clicked "on" to "choose which apps can access your camera". In addition, the camera toggle is turned "on". In the "Bluetooth & devices > Cameras > HP 5MP Camera" setting, a yellow ! bar appears with the message "Your camera is reporting that is blocked or turned off by a switch or button on your device.

I'm noticing recently that whenever there's a new Window update, that my fingerprint recognition is being removed. How can I get this to stop happening?I can no longer do a rollback because that option has changed, and I also noticed today that I cannot make certain selections because my organization is not allowing it. This is my personal laptop that I use for both my business and personal items, so there is no one else using this laptop. This was never there before.View the full article

I opened my email app to a Microsoft email telling me that my account was gonna be deleted, before I could think clearly I clicked the help links and etc in-order to try and resolve my case. I then realized there was nothing I could do so I looked up the email topic on google, I clicked on a Microsoft forum and found out it was a phishing scam. I'm really nervous since I not only clicked the link but also put in my password, does anyone know what I can do to prevent my information from being compromised. (IF support needs a screenshot I can send it)View the full article

After a mandatory windows update, now I cannot sign into windows. I'm getting a message that the password is incorrect. This is the same password that I have always used and never changed.

I have a laptop that I originally used an LLC that I was sole proprietor of to set up. It had a "work" email address. I have since let that old email lapse and now I can't get into my laptop. I am the administrator but because the account is closed, I'm trying to move it over to my personal account. I cannot get past the lock screen but can boot up into the Administrator mode. How can I change the administrator to be my personal account so I can get in again? According to a help file it says to put "wmic useraccount get fullname, name" into the command prompt, but all I get back is "No InstancView the full article

I want to reset my PC and have a clean slate, but everytime I reset, onedrive will start up and bring in the files from the previous session which renders the reset useless. How do I keep onedrive deactivated when I reset? I click "set it up as new PC" during device setup thinking it'll help, but onedrive boots up still. I reset a totally different device before and onedrive can remain unsynced. I use the same email too. But one device can remain unsync at reset, and another will constantly sync despite every reset. How do I tackle this? View the full article
