Which policies do you refer to specifically, and what do you mean when you say they "don't work"? If I enabled "Configure Automatic Updates" to setting 4, and configured it to install at 3 every Monday (for example), and also enabled the "No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled...

I love how the only one of these threads that actually addresses both the GPO that people said wasn't working and the information indicating those people may have been doing it wrong cuts off at "Thanks, this is promising. I'll see if it works!" I mean I guess the fact they never came back to...

Does anyone know how to reliably disable automatic reboots for updates? I've found a few posts online mentioning a few GPO guys but they've been accompanied with people saying they don't work as well as information suggesting those people may have just been doing it wrong, so I'm not sure what...

Love that you include info on how to do this with the registry, makes scripting a lot easier!

Yeah, but the thing is the utilities are standalone executables themselves. PowerToys.exe just helps you manage them. PowerToys Run (spotlight search) is able to show the individual tools, but it also has some special setting to do that I know. Honestly though this is all getting a little...

Again, that's the PowerToys suite. I mean the individual tools within it, like the PT Keyboard Manager or Environment Variable editor.

You misunderstand my query. Firstly, your image is showing web results, not what I'm interested in. Secondly, I'm talking about the individual PowerToys utilities, not the suite.

Ok hold on guys, I just booted up a VM on NT 3.1 and like, I don't even know what to say But even as far back as here, "Default Beep" is not mapped to Windows Default.wav, but to... well it wasn't Windows Ding.wav yet but the preceding ding.wav... in fact, a Windows Default.wav or even just...

Oh my god

It wouldn't be too out there for it to be just some legacy backwards compatibility thing (or even just something they didn't bother to remove, like 90% of the sounds in Media today), but the fact it was updated and replaced with new versions up till 7 makes that feel really weird.

I mean, you don't have to test them. You can just look at the the file it's mapped to in the UI lol To recap, the situation is: This sound exists in the Media folder along with all the other system sounds, and it's been updated with every sound scheme update until 8. From XP onward (also had...

Been poking through þe olde system sounds and looking into their legacy mapping before 8 replaced everything with Windows Background/Foreground.wav, and one file that has left me perplexed is Windows Default.wav. On first instinct one might expect it to be associated with the "Default Beep"...

Noticed PowerToys utilities don't show up in Start search and it got me thinking, just what determines what shows up in there? Had a bit of trouble finding anything online. I know it's not just the stuff in the Start Menu\Programs folder because I have things that aren't in there at all come...

Just tried putting that into the entry and restarting, no luck. I think I'll just try a different hotkey configuration at this point... Edit: Ah, I see it didn't exactly not work, though... just disabled all hotkeys bound to P, r, t, S and c 😅 Edit 2: Yikes, looks like it also stops me from...

That's what I'd like to try, but I'm not sure how I'd enter PrtSc into the entry 😅
