Thanks, but I tried that about a dozen times over the past two months. This has been happening for the last two months and continued through several update installs, network resets, and reboots. As far as having both network connections active, no. My laptop only has WiFi. There is no Ethernet...

Well, the WiFi symbol is finally back. After more than a month with only the Ethernet symbol showing the WiFi symbol has returned. My laptop was working fine, but still displaying the Ethernet symbol this morning. I had an early doctors appointment and didn't get back on my laptop until 12:30...

What image editor is that? I started writing my web site in 2004, and it is still around. I use HTML-Kit, which was released in 1997, to create and updated the web site. For the most part, I stopped using images on my web site, because everyone kept stealing them. I switched to special drawings...

I was offered, and installed, an update to Windows 11 in December 2021. I didn't pay too much attention to it then, because it was about one month after my wife passed from a stroke. I have installed every update since then, without any issues. I have never had any real problems, but that...

I saw a update this morning 6/6/2026. It was a Definition Update KB2267602, but it didn't take very long. It bogged me down with disk access for about 10 minutes, but that's about it. Those Definition Updates happen every day. Sometimes 2 or 3 times a day and very seldom cause an issue...

I don't use Edge, so I just ignore it and don't worry about it. It takes up space on my hard drive, but I have 250 GB of free space, so I don't care.

I have two Yahoo accounts and two Gmail accounts. The Gmail accounts have never received any spam and is very quiet. I have t send some test email to them once a week to see if they are still working. Of the Yahoo accounts, only one as received some spam, about once a week. But you have to work...

Well, surprise, surprise. The WiFi symbol is gone again and the Ethernet symbol is back. This is after the latest reboot and installation of the latest Security Update (KB5083769) and .NET Framework Security Update (KB5082417). I guess, as long as I am actually connected via WiFi, it really...

I install all updates that come my way. So I don't include the build number on my Windows 11 specs. That would mean that I have to update it once a week. I simply say "Windows 11 Home, 25H2, Latest OS Build".

I'm just showing you what I get. I have never had Norton installed on any of my computers. I have been working on computers since the late 60's. Norton is just very invasive. They will try anything to make a sale. I have seen similar intrusions on Facebook. Yes it does, doesn't it. The image...

The site that is linked in the first post of this thread.

This is all I get when I visit that site. Prior to this static picture, there is a lot of fake scanning activity shown. It is an obvious fake, and can be easily thrown away. So I did. But it can make some users panic. So much for good free apps. And no, I don't have a current subscription to any...

Well, my WiFi symbol is back. Exactly why, I am not sure. I started to have problems viewing "Reels", while visiting Facebook. The Reels screen was blank. I tried a few times and then decided to update my browser (chrome) and reboot. During the reboot, the screen indicated that it was updating...

That was one of the first things that I tried. If I turn off the WiFi, I see the globe symbol, which indicates no internet. When I turn WiFi back on, I only get the Ethernet symbol. Hovering over the symbol shows that I am connected to MySpectrumWiFi and I have internet access. I found those...

No, you were absolutely correct. Although the time stamps show that you posted before me, I was not aware of your post until after I posted. Thanks for your support. Since then I also did a Google search on the subject. Initially they suggest that it indicates a misconfigured driver, a stuck...
