  1. Microsoft Edge Icon in Taskbar changed?

    Fabler2 - That worked. The sad part is that I think I did that on a couple of other systems and "forgot" or did not know what effect it had! Anyway, thanks everyone for the information. Now, if I could just get an answer on how to tell Microsoft to quit downloading 15 years of old stuff to...
  2. Microsoft Edge Icon in Taskbar changed?

    Yeap. That's what is going on. I have two Profiles Mine and a "Profile 1". Any idea on how I get rid of Profile 1. Somewhere I must have done something wrong to create a second Profile.
  3. Microsoft Edge Icon in Taskbar changed?

    I was playing around with Edge trying to get rid of 15 year old stuff in the Favorites and for some reason a couple of systems show a little circle in the Edge Icon in the Taskbar. I have attached a screen shot. Everything works okay but I would like to know what I did to deserve the modified...
  4. How do I stop MSFT from "reloading" old links in Edge?

    I give up on Microsoft Edge. I thought I followed the procedure posted on the Microsoft site but... no success. I have 10 computers some with W11 and some still running W10. I Spent a couple of hours signing Edge off all the systems except the one I wanted to "fix" the Favorites. I then...
  5. How do I stop MSFT from "reloading" old links in Edge?

    It just happened again this morning. Links from 10 years ago popped up. I spent the better part of an hour deleting all the obsolete links. If Microsoft does not have a solution or does not care about this "bug" what alternatives do I have - switch to another Browser, change my Microsoft...
  6. How do I stop MSFT from "reloading" old links in Edge?

    I guess I must be the only person with this issue. Today, once again, Edge has suddenly included stuff from years ago under the "Other Favorites" tab. It also picks up links to old stuff that was in the "Favorites bar". It seems like this happens when I'm "playing" with an old system that I...
  7. E-Mails from "Microsoft Account Team" saying an unauthorized Account Login has been detected

    Thanks for the information. I will "Block" the sender and see if Outlook will kill the E-Mails before they get to the Junk Folder. I also went to the Sign in to your Microsoft account site and made sure the bad guys were being denied access. Looks like my E-Mail address is popular around...
  8. E-Mails from "Microsoft Account Team" saying an unauthorized Account Login has been detected

    I have received several E-Mails from the "Microsoft Account Team" in the last week or two saying an unauthorized Russian is trying to log into my Microsoft Account! The E-Mails end up in my Outlook Junk folder. Is this someone trying to get me to reply with a valid E-Mail address or is it...
  9. ASRock B550 Phantom MB and Windows 11

    In case anybody's interested, I just installed W11 over W10 on the B550/5600X system with no issues. W11 seems to be happy with the BIOS settings and hardware. So... it would appear that the ASRock B550 MB has something that causes Windows 10 Update to identify a problem that apparently does...
  10. ASRock B550 Phantom MB and Windows 11

    Put the Secure Boot back to Standard and ran WhyNotW11. All Green! See attached screen shot. So much for the Windows 10 Update "Ready for Windows 11" check!?
  11. ASRock B550 Phantom MB and Windows 11

    I tried changing the Secure to Custom and set the default keys. No success. I'll be going back to the drawing board and try to figure out how I tell the system to boot UEFI mode. W10 must not care since I am booting W10 from the GPT disk. The BIOS has all kinds of settings under Key...
  12. ASRock B550 Phantom MB and Windows 11

    Under the Security Tab - Supervisor Password - Not Installed User Password - Not Installed Secure Boot - Enabled Secure Boot Mode - Standard Install Default Secure Boot Keys - Grayed Out Clear Secure Boot Keys - Grayed Out Key Management - Grayed Out Once again I used the "Googled" solution...
  13. ASRock B550 Phantom MB and Windows 11

    Love Macrium Reflect been using for years. Thank you for the reply, I guess I have got to start reading the manual and ignore the "Google" solutions. The other three systems were W11 ready with no BIOS changes required as best I can remember. This MB seems to make it a challenge. Anyway, I...
  14. ASRock B550 Phantom MB and Windows 11

    I'm have a little/lot of trouble getting Windows 10 Update to say the new system I'm building is ready to upgrade to Windows 11. The MB is a ASRock B550 Phantom (BIOS Version 2.40) with a 5600X CPU, 2X8GB of G.Skill FlareX 3200-14 Memory, a Samsung 960 EVO NVMeSSD (250GB) and a EVGA GTX1600...
  15. How do I stop MSFT from "reloading" old links in Edge?

    Yeah, it does a fine job of sync'ing all my computers with new links etc. It does such a good job that all my systems pick up the ancient links that I have to delete again and again. The good part is Edge syncs all the other computers with the deleted links. BUT... later (days, weeks...
