Thanks Antspants for your response.. Ideally I'd like to be able to navigate my phone (moto g power 2022) from my laptop.. I've done more research and I don't think my phone has this capability... I'll close this post now... thanks again

Thanks for your reply MisterEd .. The phone and laptop are within 2 feet of each other... Currently I'm not using Bluetooth to transfer anything since it doesn't connect my 2 devices. I haven't tried Phone Link, don't know anything about it....

Berton and Scott... thanks for your replies.... I open the phone photo folder using the photo app in Windows 11. I don't see any option to rotate them... As for the attachment, I was unaware that most users did not attach pdf's, txt etc. files to their posts... I understand the concern... So...

thanks Denis... I'll do some additional reading.... when I'm in safe mode, I assume I'll see the same icons that appear in normal mode and the test will be to select and right click to the usual popup window and the select the 'show more options'; To return to normal mode, do I simply restart...

Berton... I didn't see and trash can icon when I highlighted an icon and right clicked and selected properties. GHOT.. I ran the cmd - sfc /scannow and this did not change anything. I've attached what was displayed in CMD. Edwin.. tried the shift+right click and this caused the screen to...

I added a couple of directories to my Windows PATH. For the purpose of testing the access to them, they were added to both the USER and SYSTEM PATHS (I know I really need to only add them to one or the other but I was interested in testing the process and then was going to remove the SYSTEM...

I've just discovered by accident that I have an issue with my desktop icons. When I right click on any icon, I get the popup window displaying several options including usually 'open', 'show more options' and others. When I select either 'open' or 'show more options' the popup window simply...

I have recently installed VMWare Workstation Player and Teradata Express V15.10 onto my laptop. The response time from VMWare is very slow and having done research I found a few articles indicating what they termed as 'HYPER-V' getting in the way of some VM related processes. The articles...
