  1. How to minimize and hide Remote Desktop connection window with one keyboard shortcut

    I use Remote Desktop to connect from one Windows 11 22621.1413 to another remote Windows 11 22000.2538. I use the well known combination Ctrl-Alt-Break/Pause available in my full keyboard.

  5. How to change BitLocker pre-boot authentication display language

    How can I change the BitLocker pre-boot authentication localization / internationalization display language? I can change the OS language easily but what about the pre-boot environment?

  6. Solved Unable to fix BitLocker asking for recovery key after KB5012170 update

    So the issue fixed itself after waiting more than 24 hours to boot again into Windows, now the PIN is accepted right away at first try. Wonder why it asks for the PIN before that if it won't work since it's temporarily banned. Maybe it always asks for it then checks... Probably disabling the...

  7. Solved Unable to fix BitLocker asking for recovery key after KB5012170 update

    Since the TPM lockout is set for 24 hours, could I just enter normally with the PIN after 24h? According to this blog also I can reset the TPM without decrypting/encrypting: Too many PIN entry attempts BitLocker error in Windows 11/10

  8. Solved Unable to fix BitLocker asking for recovery key after KB5012170 update

    The update KB5012170 was installed on my system 10 August 2022, but wasn't until today that I got the error that my PIN wasn't working and got to use the recovery key.

It's not technically necessary for Windows to reset default apps, unless they are constantly modifyng the registry...

  10. How to associate 3gp files with VLC

    Yes but the issue happened before that build anyway. I would like to be on Insider but don't want to enable optional diagnostics and Windows keylogger to send everything I do to Microsoft.

  11. How to associate 3gp files with VLC

    In any case i've experienced in the past, with some previous updates, that defaults apps were reset without my consent, like resetting VLC for Photos & TV and picture viewers, etc. Same this has been going on with default web browser, which can be reset at any time since it's not disclosed by...

  12. How to associate 3gp files with VLC

    @glasskuter I think you are mistaking a preview of next update with a developer or insider build, which is beta/alpha channel and it's not meant for the general public. The preview is a stable build meant for everybody which presumably is not installed automatically, but by no means is a...

  14. How to associate 3gp files with VLC

    The solution I see it to make a clean install of W11 inside a guest virtual machine, then backup proper registry keys and restore them to host windows machine.
