Is there any kind of fix for Windows 10 never going into sleep mode? Even if I set it to fall asleep after 5 minutes it never does. I ran a couple of google'd diagnostic commands and everything looked normal. (It did work at one time but quit working after some update from the past couple months) It still fails to work even after clean installs.

Is Windows Defender starting to suck? I'm seeing false positives lately on random poo poo from Steam. One a week ago and another one from tonight. The first time I submitted it to some online scanner and everything but Defender said it was clean. It eventually stopped bugging me about it, I guess they removed the false positive. Now it's bugging me about random files from Dota 2, so I verified the game's integrity just to make sure it was clean and it's freaking out when I redownload the files straight from Valve.

In my personal experience non-responsive taskbar/start menu means your profile is hosed and migrating to a new user account will fix it.

Yeah I can't say I've ever had this problem at all. Can't even remember the last time I was prompted to restart because of an update. It just does it all while I'm asleep.

I feel like an outlier in that I never have problems with Windows 10 other than the oversensitive antivirus.

I feel like I inhabit some alternate reality where Windows updates go smoothly, Windows never restarts without giving me adequate prompts, and where all the dumb ad poo poo is ignorable and not something that has to be dug out by the roots.

I swear some people have a mental condition when it comes to Windows Update. It's not that big of an inconvenience, just install the updates.

SUNKOS posted:Hopefully not a dumb question but on the File Explorer I clicked the 'Network' tab to drop-down and it showed a PC with some kind of unique identifier, and I have no idea what it is or why it's there? It's probably your own PC. To check, search for 'Name' on the taskbar and go to 'View This PC's Name'

I'm sure there are downsides to enabling disk compression otherwise everyone would be using it. There's probably a performance cost. Some games already have pop-in if they're not on an SSD.

It's also probably the case that no one has their bonus tied to work done on any of those things. Notepad and Calculator are probably the absolute last things I'd strip out of Windows if I could.

Try using a different SATA cable before buying a new hard drive.

So are we just stuck with Windows 10 forever now? I guess it's basically satisfactory but it also feels like staying on 10 for years is an excuse to drip-feed updates a few at a time. At this rate it'll be 2030 before they complete the control panel to settings transition.

Fame Douglas posted:There's Windows 10X to look forward to, their next (of many) attempts at making Windows into a Chrome OS-competitor. To soften the PR blow, they first announced it as a dual-screen focused OS (which was obvious bullshit from the get-go), but now it's officially their "future Windows". There doesn't seem to be much information out there but it sounds like a rerun of what they tried and failed to do with Windows 8. I'll pass.

I could never get used to how things look with blue-light reduction. I end up sitting there thinking 'I have this nice screen and now I'm going to spend the next 4 hours with everything looking like garbage'

The Lord Bude posted:Let me get this straight. You've spent $245 and countless hours of painstaking work to repair a motherboard from 2009. That's insane. you could probably have scrounged a replacement motherboard from ebay or something for less than that; hell for $245 you could have bought a NUC or a PC on a stick. The computer is 12 years old, it passed its reasonable functional lifespan a very long time ago. I'm on my 4th PC in that space of time. My thoughts exactly.

The MCT updates every time there is a major release of the OS but it doesn't include the patches released since then. So right now you'd be looking at the patches released since 20H2.

Your computer doesn't need you to micromanage it anymore in general. It's a hard habit to break though for people that have been using Windows for 30 years.

Windows 11's marketshare on Steam actually declined a little bit from last month which surprises me.

Hippie Hedgehog posted:So what’s the trick to getting Windows 10 to stop nagging me about logging it into a Microsoft account? There's a program called O&O Shutup10 that can make various tiers of changes to privacy-related things, some of which aren't handled by half-dozen options you get at OS install. I think it works on Windows 11 too.

Having drives assigned to A: and B: is harmless but it's a pretty good sign you need help from someone more knowledgable because I can't think of a good reason you would have done that.
