Can Windows 11 AI-powered Copilot control control W11 Pro file manager search function? What components must be installed? There are archives over 10 years with photos and text file in many subfolders. Versions size, date, file name and file type are different. (Many photos have additional...

Hi Kepler, I'm the employer you suggest to contact. Please check my initial message. I had an idea to use senders IP address in automatically sent Email header to get public IP daily. But I'm sure there are better and well tested solutions. Just to get public IP using DDNS means dependency of...

I have used Teamviewer earlier but the lisence is too expensive €70 per month. Teamvierer free version doesn't work as company is paranoid about customers using it for work. I got continuosly blocked or sessions were limited to 30 seconds, when I attempted to help some friend or relative to fix...

I need occasionally RDP to access my other computer from home but public IP changes quite often. And RDP fails. Is there any ready trick to get twice per day public IP to Email? Any other suggested solution?

When updating computer to Windows 11 I forgot to insert TPM module. To my surprise Windows 11 installed normally. When later checking PC Device Manager, there appears to be a TPM device with Hardware ID MSFT0101, which is part Intel PTT. Is TPM functionality part of CPU or motherboard chipset...

At work when computer goes to sleep in 10 minutes, I expect that credentials are required later to unlock desktop. That's how old Windows 10 computer unlocks desktop after sleep mode. Windows 11 Pro is new fresh installation.

Domain based Windows 11 Pro work computer can't be set to require logon after sleep. Windows lock "Win+L" locks PC and to unlock requires ctrl+alt+delete. Single appropriate setting seems to be: "if you've been away when should Windows require you to sign in again?" has been set to "When PC...

Sleep state problem solved. If I disconnected only mouse or keyboard one at a time, computer sleep mode still was not available. If I removed both at same time computer went into sleep mode normally. Replaced both and sleep mode is available. I checked mouse keyboard pair with other computer and...

Yes, new PC I gathered muself as always. I used Gigabyte CC. GCC may have been installed 7zip, which doesn't interoperate properly with Windows 7. I check this PC in few hours but it feels like GCC installation is envolved and culprit to driver installation. Then I read also links you provided...

Updated BIOS, no help. Now I discovered that there is problem with device drivers which likely may be reason why sleep mode doesn't work. Right now I see there still 2 missing device drivers. PCI Device: VEN_8086 & DEV_7A24 SM Bus Controller: VEN_8086 & DEV_7A23 Appears that installation had...

Fast start up and hibernation are off. Display off is set to 2 minutes and sleep to 3 minutes but auto display off and auto sleep still doesn't work. I continue troubleshooting tomorrow. Thanks.

Thanks for your quick advice. I'm going to initial problem No. 3 directly - all settings are default, new w11 installation, I have also attempted to restore defaults. But computer doesn't go to sleep. Default turn off display is default - 5 minutes but display is still on after 2 hours.

From power menu PC goes to sleep. Doesn't wake up with mouse. Wakes up with keyboard - goes to login screen, when I'd expect a desktop or previous screen to sleep mode. Old computer at home I use psw to log into computer but no psw required when waking up PC. Doesn't wake up with mouse.

results of powercfg /a are difficult to understand, I believe every modern PC system supports standby or sleep under W10, what's wrong with W11? results of powercfg /a: Following sleep states are available on this system: Standby (S3) Hibernate Hybrid Sleep Fast Startup Followed by...

Correct reply - space was missing. Thanks. But still running powercfg /requets all replies are "none" Looks like this command can't be of any help.
