I'm assuming it's because of link changes, so it redirects to the new URL instead of 404-ing. But then it's also a self fulfilling prophecy because keeping the old link valid means it keeps getting indexed, and remains popular because it gets clicked on.

isn't there a http header you can set on a redirect to tell scrapers that the new URL is canonical and the old one should be ignored

they're a very wealthy company, and whatever the fix, they could do it. I also dislike getting a search result that gets someone with the exact same problem as mine, the proposed solution of which is a pat answer from a community member or MS team member, which neither addresses nor resolves the problem.

Popping in to say to you goons fed up with the recommendations for dism, that there is in fact *one weird trick* that fixes a LOT of issues on trashed windows deployments. Resetting the network adapter. Sometimes I even do: netsh int ip reset netsh winsock reset for shits and giggles. I have seen this: make cortana work, make the start menu work, make explorer stop crashing, make the systray work, make it so there isn't 100 empty icons in systray, make wifi work, make outlook send email, make https sites work, and so on

Remember physically removing the windows key from your keyboard because you’d accidentally hit it when gaming and it’d gently caress everything up? Well, it’s back.

Nobody wants some AI poo poo on their desktop, go away. I see MS have already completely trashed the brand by introducing about a billion different "Copilot for [x]" variants as product managers desperately shoot to hit their targets by smearing ~*AI*~ all over the things they're responsible for.

Wah-wah! I think this will get a ton of uptake cause consumers have been hyped on AI by big tech and the media. It'll be everywhere next year and then nowhere a few years after that.

I know everyone no doubt knows this, but if you hold shift when clicking items in the start menu, the start menu stays open, so you can merrily continue to open more things. No idea if it works in 11, it's just something random that I found out today. It was introduced in Windows 2000  It feels like the sort of thing I probably knew, but forgot..

Every time I hear about it again I start with shock and disbelief, then a vague sense of deja vu, then a vertiginous wave of full remembrance. It's like selective, defensive amnesia. Christ Microsloth is a mess.

Hey there. So, I run Win10 on my personal computer. I have to use 11 on my work laptop, and I loathe the UI changes, so I've been putting off updating. However, I acknowledge that I probably should go ahead and pull the trigger. My questions: 1. Am I able to just upgrade the OS without a full wipe? I have a lot of stuff set up that I don't want to redo, which a full wipe would require. 2. Are there any notable applications that aren't working with 11? 3. Is there a way to get rid of the UI changes. Or really all the user-facing changes. Like, can I essentially make this "Windows 10 with 11 under the hood". I'd still be running Win7 if it was still supported tbh, even 10 was a downgrade imo.

Was Scroll Lock not the inevitable choice for an existing key replacement? Were the tiny minority of people who use it too politically powerful to challenge here? Or did Microsoft resolve to make this just obtrusive enough that people would eventually have to engage with it, one way or another? What a clown shoes company - any hope I had that Satya Nadella might change things has evaporated by now.

Scroll Lock needs to stay so that I can have a momentary panic twice a year when I hit it by accident and Excel acts all weird and I can't figure out why.

Annath posted:Hey there. Take a screen shot of your start menu before you upgrade to 11, because unlike previous upgrades (7-8-10) where they made some attempt at copying over your pinned programs, with 11 they decided that was too hard so gently caress you eat the default start menu pinned programs. But even if you forget to do that, the upgrade does not actually delete your old start menu/pinned apps and you can bring it back with explorer patcher, which is free, restores most of the windows 10 UI, and seems to be decently maintained (occasionally a windows update breaks it, but they usually get such cases fixed in less than a week): https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher
