Ever since I installed 22000.556 today, my taskbar hasn't worked properly in multi-display mode. Specifically, if the taskbar is in show-on-all-displays mode, then whenever the PC boots or resumes from sleep, there's a period of a couple of minutes when the taskbar is blank (unpopulated), the...

The thing to always ask yourself is this: does an answer to your question help answer the original question? If not, a separate thread is called for; that's what threads are for. Again, thanks for understanding!

Your Bitlocker question seems unrelated to the topic of this thread. It would be helpful if you started your own thread for your question, so that people who are receiving notifications for this thread don't start getting notified of answers to your unrelated question. Thanks!

Unless they're physically attacking you, you needn't shout for help.

I like it, but I don't love it or hate it, so the poll doesn't offer me any accurate answer.

I don't recall ever seeing those things either; I use Chrome and Google Drive.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

I have a setup with 3 UHD monitors, 2 of which are usually turned off. Finding the mouse cursor can be tricky, even with the ctl-key mouse-circling hack enabled, especially if the cursor is over on one of the turned-off monitors. Is there a quick way to force the cursor to jump to the center of...

I've installed W11Pro on a newly assembled PC and I'm happy with it. I no longer encounter some annoyances I'd been having with W10Pro (especially power-management issues, where some apps would prevent the PC from idling out into sleep mode, despite using "powercfg /requestsoverride"; and some...

Timing manually and subtracting the time to enter passwords, it's 17 seconds to shut down plus 29 seconds to boot and log in, for a total of 46 seconds (Ryzen 3900x, NVMe SSD).

Oh ok, so that'll include the time it takes to enter my Bitlocker PIN and my account password. I'll try it the next time I have occasion to restart my PC (I tend not to reboot very often).

I don't want to download the tool but I'd be happy to time my next restart for you manually. At what points should I start and stop the timer?

I see the same vanishing-menu behavior. It happens when I move to a File Explorer item and immediately right-click. If I wait a fraction of a second for the item to fully highlight before I right-click, the context menu stays in place. Alternatively, I can right-click immediately provided that I...

Thanks, I was already doing all that. The OS-drive tutorial only mentions Bitlocker's PIN and USB-drive options (which is what I'm getting), but not the password option (which was previously available when I used Bitlocker on Windows 10 computers, and which I've enabled in my new computer in...
