  1. Personalization Enable or Disable Startup Sound in Windows 11

    Hi Shawn This is an old thread but I have 3 laptops all with W11 25H2 Home build 26200.8894, the oldest 2022 Asus VivoBook plays the Windows Startup sound OK but the newer Acer AI SF14-51T and SFE14-51T don't, I tried all the methods above, but don't get a startup sound, no Fast Startup and all...

  5. Backup and Restore Enable or Disable Point-in-time Restore in Windows 11

    Yes the legacy System Protection app runs side-by-side with the new Point-In-Time Restore app, I have System Protection now disabled as I was getting these pesky VSS errors after backing up my system to an external drive, hope the new Point-In-Time Restore will work better with VSS services. 😉
  6. Win Update KB5095093 Windows 11 Cumulative Update Preview build 26100.8737 (24H2) and 26200.8737 (25H2) - June 23

    Installed fine on both my systems, DISM and SFC no isues 👍 Anyone knows how to get the taskbar to show in Windows Edge, most pages put my takbar behind full screens, I have to press Windows Key+T to show my taskbar. reducing the display size slightly will work but is a hassle. Thanks Frank

  8. Win Update KB5094126 Windows 11 Cumulative Update build 26100.8655 (24H2) and 26200.8655 (25H2) - June 9

    Installed very fast, now on build 26200.8655. Both DISM and SFC ran without errors on both my systems. Update: Just discovered that my older Asus 2022 Vivobook lost all favicons in the latest Edge version and my Recent list in File Explorer was cleared and would no longer populate with new...
  9. Win Update KB5089573 Windows 11 Cumulative Update Preview build 26100.8524 (24H2) and 26200.8524 (25H2) - May 26

    Installed fast but DISM took 30 minutes to complete (no issues) on both my 2 laptops, stopped at 63%. SFC also took 30 min on my new A!

  12. Acer SF14‑51T AI – Event 41 Kernel‑Power crashes

    I made a restore point ran WDV, checked all the test except Randomized..... and restarted. It booted to Windows desktop OK then crashed: BSOD after 1 minute: When I restored the point I saved it restored successfully (in WindowsRE with my USB recovery stick) but when I rebooted it crashed again...
  13. Acer SF14‑51T AI – Event 41 Kernel‑Power crashes

    OK, so I run ALL WDV customized options in one test except the Randomized low.........test? for 2 days and after 1 day run the V2 log compilation that I share on cloud? Hope my laptop will still work during that exercise...
  14. Acer SF14‑51T AI – Event 41 Kernel‑Power crashes

    This is the last group f, no BSODs, no Mini Dumps logged. My Spotlight app is Kaput no way to revive, probably a registry issue. I did get a new KEK (2016 Secure Boot cert,) last week that may have something to do with Spotlight no longer updating my background wallpaper...
