I'm new to Android apps on Windows 11. I've installed the Textra SMS app successfully and it starts. However, it wants me to specify the app as the default SMS app for Android. I've set the Windows default app for SMS to Textra, but that doesn't help. How do I get to Android settings as they...

Thanks for these suggestions. I will try both.

I am sure the PC is sleeping. I test this by selecting Sleep from he power button menu.

When waking my PC from sleep by a keyboard press, the PC lights immediately with disk activity. The display, however, take about 40 seconds to wake. Seems much too long. I'm running Windows 11 on a home-brew PC with I7-11700 CPU using the built-in Intel graphics. The PC is connected through...

Thanks, I was aware of this three size choice. What I'm looking for is icon spacing. I suspect there is a registry entry that defines this but I've have been unable to find it.

How can I increase the size and spacing (separately) of taskbar items in Windows 111? Thanks.

Some progress here. I found that the failure of the Intel TB driver to start as I described above was solved when I plugged power into the 6-pin port on my Asus ThunderboltEX 4 card. The manual for the card suggest that this power connection is optional and only needed if you are using the TB...

OK, but other problems with the TB driver under Windows 11 remain: I am using Intel driver version 1.41.1193.0 and while I can get the drive to install, Device Manager shows "Device not started (nhi)" in the events log. I also have the issue of my monitor (connected via TB cable) blinks off...

On my desktop PC (Asus w EX 4 TB card), the TB ports are working. I've installed the latest driver I could find (1.41.1193.0) after removing the TB device and forcing removal of all "tb" drivers found in the hidden device category in Device Manager. The new driver install then worked, but the...

It is an Intel app, but is supposed to be available in the MS Store. I can't find it on the Intel or MS Store websites.

I have installed the latest Intel TB driver for the Asus Thunderbolt EX 4 card in my PC (v1.41.1134.0), but cannot find the MS TB Control Center app on the MS store. The TB app from Asus will not install on my system (install process just dies). Can anyone tell me where to find the MS TB...

Where did you fund the TB Control Center app on the MS Store? I can't locate it? Also, what driver version are you using for TB? Thanks.

This is helpful, but changing the contents of the context menu via registry edits is not a suitable method for most users. MS needs to provide a comprehensive tool to manage the context menu. This is long overdue.
