Thanks @Brink - I do have optional updates checked, but they say you learn something new every day; I had no idea this option would offer updates that are system agnostic, and as your notes pointed out, it is NOT required for non-Intel based platforms. Now I wonder whether past PC issues may...

TL;DR: Completely removing Macrium (I use Revo Uninstaller Pro to truly nuke all leftover crap from programs - never deleting anything in red as I previously learned that doing so can cause Win 11 problems Installing the recommended V8.0.xxxx version (with internet off to ensure I could uncheck...

Thanks. But no, it's that the actual Xbox Mode option in windows gaming section setting just simply isn't there, despite the feature working.

I also checked that I have KB5083631 installed, which it is.

Hey Brink! I have had 'Optimizations for Windowed Games' on globally for as long as I can remember. I also double check that it's also enabled for each new game I install, in addition to ensuring that I don't allow Windows to choose the performance mode, instead choosing the drop-down that...

Thanks Brink! However, like I said, it's actually all working and I can see it actively releasing RAM and stopping various unnecessary windows services when a game is launched. The issue is that I don't see the Xbox Mode details in Windows>settings>gaming>game mode. I can access the overlay and...

Windows 25H2 (OS Build 26200.8457) I do NOT have "Get the latest updates as soon as they are available" checked, but Xbox mode is 100% launching every time I open a game? I do NOT see the extra 'Xbox Mode' toggles in Settings>Gaming - only the normal Win 11 Gaming Mode (enabled). I had not...

Inside joke? Let me in on it. Ghot doesn't use Windows?

Just came across this and another similar. Sadly both don't allow any way to replace the simple press start and type winver/do the same in a run command window. Using the winver command for decades, it's just 'too hard basket' and both these lovely replacement apps fail by being unable to...

Thanks! Are you running a 23H3 machine? If so, did you see any impacts on SSD speeds or is this fringe issue stuff probably caused by other interfering 3rd party software since it doesn't seem like it's been widely reported beyond a couple of people?

The latest update doesn't mention any fixes for the SSD speed issues some faced? Any insights?

Shouldn't this work exactly the same for a mounted ISO? I tried running an elevated command prompt changing the 'D' to the mounted drive letter I have 'L' and got access denied on the first command. I then tried from an elevated terminal opened within the mounted ISO and got pretty much the same...

I just looked into this, and wanted to create a bootable USB Win 11 installation of the latest Win 11 23H2 Enterprise build I got from UUP Dump. I have successfully updated this PC (target machine I am creating the bootable drive on) with the CA 2023 certificates using the guide @Scott...

Thanks! I ran these commands from that post. So, basically as long as I do not update my BIOS (effectively resetting CMOS to factory), then I should in theory be good?

Safe to update, or best to wait for official? Current build:
