  1. Looking for a non-rgb keyboard with a volume control

    Yes, exactly the kind of thing I want. And I like Logitech. I will look for one or one similar. Thanks!
  2. Looking for a non-rgb keyboard with a volume control

    I have a corsair K70 which ripples colors I suppose because it thinks it is cool. I want a plain single color background always, or maybe no background at all as long as it is visible in dim light. not ripples and waves at boot or whenever icue thinks it is necessary. Do not want a light show...
  3. Rufus Releases

    Yes! Besides, using Rufus and checking most things results in a rather quick install - very little of the usual MS "wait a moment" or whatever.
  4. Rufus Releases

    I just used 4.14 on a new win11 install and it performed flawlessly -created my local logon and silenced a bunch of stuff. A HUGE asset. They should charge. (download latest 25H2 iso - it will save a lot of time - fully updated. It created a USB stick with 2 partitions - I booted to the second...
  5. Win 11 c drive is 77GB. Normal? or time to clean install?

    Just curious - how long since you did a clean install? I went ahead and uninstalled Edge, Copilot, and the 2 xbox things - only gained back a gig or 2 but lightens my load. C: is 45.5GB used and image of this NVMe is 54GB - that includes about 6 partitions.
  6. Win 11 c drive is 77GB. Normal? or time to clean install?

    @garlin - I hear you on the reserved storage but I will leave it alone for now. Never knew that, though - thanks. Currently at 36.7GB. Terabyte backup image reduced from 92 to 68GB. I did change my page file from 5 to my usual 1GB since I have 32GB ram. Still have to put on my Filmora video...
  7. Win 11 c drive is 77GB. Normal? or time to clean install?

    Yes, exactly. It was kind of a foolish question since everybody's is different. Have to remember what yours was then, and compare to now. I will post my result in a bit. Apparently the iso that I just installed had near everything - all it installed was a bunch of drivers which was fine by me...
  8. Win 11 c drive is 77GB. Normal? or time to clean install?

    clean install 44.2GB used, still early, busy setting it up, sorry, give me a bit! :) (RUFUS and MS win install are vastly improved - easy.)
  9. Solved switching from FF to Chrome browser. any caveats?

    I just tried Brave and it worked - after I shut everything off.
  10. Win 11 c drive is 77GB. Normal? or time to clean install?

    I do not store personal files or the .exe etc files (used to install all my stuff) on the C partition - that is all on the E partition. I use tree size free but here it is in your form: edit - I just uninstalled Blackmagic/Davinci Resolve and that brought me down to 70.9GB. Still strikes me an...
  11. Win 11 c drive is 77GB. Normal? or time to clean install?

    Where would I find "system restore"? I have win backup shut off. I use Terabyte to image my partitions and drives and that backup goes to yet another drive and partition. I have 3 1T NVMe's.
  12. Win 11 c drive is 77GB. Normal? or time to clean install?

    I used to spend all my time on linux so didn't care, now, for a while, I am back to only win 11. Linux partition is erased. Seems excessive! Been a while since I did a clean install - maybe time? I have all my 44GB of source stuff on a separate partition so that is not included in C. Games are...
  13. Solved switching from FF to Chrome browser. any caveats?

    I uninstall Edge right after win11 install.
  14. Solved switching from FF to Chrome browser. any caveats?

    That is good generic advice for any situation. I had it on my to do list anyway, so disabled all extensions and work first time but not second time. I went to privacy and set it to custom and UNCHECKED everything, but still same.(so back to standard (I discovered that I had it on strict for some...
  15. Solved switching from FF to Chrome browser. any caveats?

    I found the number of cookies on a site went down when I finally added ghostery, so it's a keeper for me. I think the site I was using was amazon, but I forget.
