  1. Can I change automatic system protection "shadow copies" settings?

    Thank you for that detailed response, I think I understand it now. " Check the box for Show more restore points in the bottom-left corner to see the system restore points and when they were made." But there is no box to show more restore points that I can see: I'm not going to ask about...
  2. Can I change automatic system protection "shadow copies" settings?

    Okay then, so that event that is shown in my screenshot for Event Viewer, "Ntfs (Microsoft-Windows-Ntfs)" with Event ID 98: What is that event referring to, is it system restore or point in time restore, and is there a way to edit that event that keeps happening every day at the same time...
  3. Can I change automatic system protection "shadow copies" settings?

    So if I were to click the box to disable system protection in the Configure Restore Settings, then would I be out of luck if I ever needed to do a system restore? I have rarely needed to do such a thing, but obviously if I had to do that in the event of some issues, I would need a recent restore...
  4. Can I change automatic system protection "shadow copies" settings?

    So if I understand it correctly, I can only change the FREQUENCY of when restore snapshots are created. Which means that as long as the feature is enabled it will always create a snapshot at exactly 12:00 PM since that is the time it will occur if I choose once every 24 hours (or I can choose...
  5. Can I change automatic system protection "shadow copies" settings?

    After experiencing occasional hiccups during playback of digital audio files on my internal storage drive, I did some troubleshooting and found that this glitch ALWAYS occurs at just a few seconds past 12:00 PM when I happen to be playing audio at that time. Checking Event Viewer I figured out...

  7. I want to hide this and other ugly promotional garbage from view on my new PC...

    Presumably the version I downloaded this morning is the latest version, and inside the folder for the exe file was the warning text I shared. I am not sure if I can trust that it will run smoothly and efficiently, or that if it does that the next update of Windows won't find a way to thwart and...
  8. I want to hide this and other ugly promotional garbage from view on my new PC...

    FWIW I downloaded the Winaero Tweaker tool, unzipped it and opened the folder and read the lengthy text from a month ago about all the difficult workarounds to try to get Defender to not block Tweaker from running, and decided that to try to install and run this tool would give me more grief...
  9. Random misbehavior in Windows 11 Pro on my new Dell Pro Max Tower T2 FCT2250

    I've been using the new PC about a month now. There are a couple random events that have spontaneously occurred in the settings. Both of these scenarios have occurred more than once, maybe three to five times, both before and after I reinstalled Windows ten days ago. I use an external DAC to...
  10. I want to hide this and other ugly promotional garbage from view on my new PC...

    Thank you all for your thoughts and suggestions. I tried a couple suggestions and they didn't work in my case. So I am going to chill out and learn to do what @antspants said and simply ignore it. Cheers...

    Get tips and suggestions was already disabled in Notifications and I still see PC Game Pass on my Accounts page in settings, so...
  12. I want to hide this and other ugly promotional garbage from view on my new PC...

    I don't want their game pass. I don't need to know what products I've purchased. Just let me enjoy my new computer without being hammered with propaganda for shiny happy wonderful Microsoft making my life a bed of roses. Compris?
  13. Can I create a custom keyboard shortcut for an action in File Explorer?

    I sometimes need to edit the metadata in a folder of music files for an album I've ripped or downloaded. It can be tedious editing individual files for song title, composer credits and track number, where I have to right click the file, move the mouse pointer down a list of options, hover over...
  14. Solved Renaming User Folder of Microsoft Account Admin

    I believe I have succeeded! I have a question, is defaultuser0 a folder I need to keep and simply ignore or set to hidden, or can I safely delete it?
