Thanks, I thought there might have been a registry toggle or a prayer. I'll just wait here.

I'm trying to fix an issue I had in 10 too. My girlfriend has a local account set up on my counter without a password. If she shuts down on her account, it will auto login on the next boot. I want it to go to the lock screen on start up every time. Do I really have to buy Pro to do that?

Possibly, but in that case I'd just set a generic pin like 1234.

I've had Win11 installed for quite some time now with TPM off on my AMD system. I installed it that way using Rufus or whatever to disable the check. ASRock finally put out a BIOS update a few days ago for my board that has the audio fix and whatever else. Installing it will also reset my BIOS and default to TPM on. Will I need to re-install Windows after TPM gets flipped on?

No. If you forced the install with TPM off, turning it on later doesn't change anything. It's going the other direction that can be a problem.

It's probably a dumb question but I have 2 PCs that I upgraded to Win11 despite not qualifying for it normally. Do I have to do the Win10 trick to get them updated onto 22H2 or did Microsoft stop that in its tracks?

Do I have to do the Win10 trick to get them updated onto 22H2 or did Microsoft stop that in its tracks? Updates in future may fail, but it seems it is not this day. To upgrade to 22H2 now, create an ISO using the Media Creation Tool, then use Rufus to mount and modify it to remove the necessity for TPM 2.0, if that's what your blocker was. I've used this easy peasy method on a circa 2012/2013 lvy Bridge laptop and it works a treat. If this or future methods fail, you'll still be able to install Windows 10, which is getting security and extremely minor (as I understand it) feature updates until July 2025.

Literally opened this thread for the first time in months to bitch about the task manger. The tiny, unlabeled icons instead of normal tabs can gently caress right off.  an analog gauge is "startup apps", makes total sense.You have to make it really huge to get the text and it takes up an unnecessary amount of screen space. Doesn't really matter because I'm replacing it with Process Explorer immediately anyway. Also is it just me or are there fewer and fewer of the underlined access keys (that you activate with Alt+key), and yes I did turn it on in accessibility settings. --- E: An actual question. I had my taskbar at the top to hide the camera cutout but the update reset it and it seems like the registry setting no longer works. Has anyone solved this? mobby_6kl fucked around with this message at 16:47 on Oct 15, 2022 |

Is there any way to make all OS notifications have the "Dismiss" button? I've been using Phone Link lately, and it's quite nice, except its notifications don't have that button, so even if I click the x to close the notification, it still sits in the notification area, as opposed to other types of notifications that do have that button, so I only have to interact with them once.

redeyes posted:Ill be happy when user interfaces go back to textual lables. Icons suck. Eh, the icons are fine and you can figure out what they mean the 2nd time you open the program. Much less cluttered visually. And the startup icon is a gauge, kind of like a throttle, as it's the computer coming "up to speed" and getting ready to perform. The first listing on that page is even the last BIOS time. Makes good sense to me.

Makes good sense to me. Startup tasks are also one of the things that can slow down startup, so that tab is of interest to people wondering why their machine starts slowly. "I really want to make things faster, oh hay a speedometer icon."

You're really going to defend an analog gauge for "startup apps" as intuitive when when another tab is literally called Performance? I know you can get used to anything eventually of course. Anyway it's gone now so I don't have to worry about it any more  https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorerAnd the solution to the taskbar location and as it turned out, a lot of other annoying issues, turned out to be called Explorer Patcher.

I started noticing glitching in video playback and audio. Did about 12 hours of troubleshooting.. Turns out my Win 11 Core i7 12900k is hosed. I'm getting DPC latency spikes to the point the system dies entirely. This started about a week ago, maybe after 22H2. At this point you can't really go back to a earlier build without it making GBS threads it pants and wanting to upgrade. You might say, well SSD is screwed, I've tried 3x.

Next time you plug it into your Windows machine it should ask if you want to format the volume (can't remember if it uses the term "initialise".

Got the update that ads tabs to file explorer today. It's p cool, though I wish there was an option to hide the close tab button on each tab, since middle click works the same way it does in every browser on earth, including middle clicking folders to open them in another tab. You can't drag tabs off the window to open them as separate windows, nor drag tabs between windows.

I'm getting sick of my work-provided Targus dock. It's a DisplayLink dock with a USB-C port to go to the computer. I swap the USB-C input/output between my work laptop (MacBook) and my Windows 11 desktop by switching the cable that's plugged into that port. For whatever reason, it's started acting hinky lately on Windows. Sometimes I'll continuously hear Windows's USB disconnect/connect sound, about a second apart, and each pair has maybe two or three seconds between the two. I can't use a Thunderbolt dock since my desktop CPU is a Ryzen 2600, so doesn't have the support. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to easily swap between these computers? I don't need video from my desktop to my monitors; they're connected separately from the dock. But, I do need video from the laptop to the monitors.

Is there any way to get a swipe from the right to show the quick setting or whatever that panel was called before, with like airplane mode, brightness and volume adjustment? I almost never actually need to access the notifications that they put there now.

Have to triple-swipe up (am I the only one who finds this uncomfortable because my fingers are different length?), then try to hit a small icon in the taskbar. If I miss it in a bumpy plane, it auto-hides and I have to do all over again. I wish they stopped trying to make the stupid widgets happen and just put it on the left side if they really must have this useless panel on the right.
