  1. Looking for a way to bypass time difference when xcopying

    Thanks, all. I'll switch to robocopy. I'm already using for some batch files.
  2. Looking for a way to bypass time difference when xcopying

    The time difference varies from file to file. On some it's one second, but I've also found some with a difference of up to 8 seconds. It's a flash drive, so Fat32. Thanks.
  3. Looking for a way to bypass time difference when xcopying

    I have several batch files that keep the data on my computers synchronized. I also use them to make backups to USB. I made the mistake of restoring data from a backup on a USB flash drive, and now there is a time difference for the files from the USB drive, where they are slightly newer. So...

    Thanks. It updated to .13 after I posted the message. And I'll do this when it next tries to install the patches. (Now scheduled for 1 May).

    What options do you switch off in MWB, all of them? (I've got Web, MWB, Ransomware, and Exploit).

    Which is not an option when accessing it from the command prompt in the repair options. (SFC does work from that prompt dism doesn't
  8. How do I prevent KB5036893 from installing without disabling updates

    I use Norton 360 and Malwarebytes. trying to boot into safe mode didn't work either, nor the option to bypass boot ... software. (I don't remember the exact phrasing. It was option 8). In both cases, it doesn't get to the login screen.
  9. How do I prevent KB5036893 from installing without disabling updates

    The Acer laptop failed in its doing a system restore. After that I tried resetting windows, after all other efforts had failed, and even that resulted in failure as it couldn't complete the reset. Probably the failed system restore corrupted the boot sector. Anyway, that's no longer the issue as...
  10. How do I prevent KB5036893 from installing without disabling updates

    I always run scf /scannow and dism /online /Cleanup-image /RestoreHealth the day before the updates as a safety measure. From the repair options, running dism from the command prompt does not offer the option. It also doesn't offer the option to restorehealth there. And you can't open an...
  11. How do I prevent KB5036893 from installing without disabling updates

    One is an Acer laptop, the other a custom-built PC with an Asus motherboard. So, hardware is unlikely. Hardware drivers are unlikely too for that reason. Though it could be the HP printer driver... That they do have in common when it comes to hardware drivers. They also both had external USB 3...
  12. How do I prevent KB5036893 from installing without disabling updates

    KB5036893 has completely ruined my one PC. All attempts to fix failed. I ended up having to reformat the drive and reinstall Windows and the apps, and restore the data from backup. On the other computer, it downloaded, asked to reboot to install, rebooted and then got stuck on a black screen...
