  1. Microsoft is blocking Windows 11 build upgrades on systems with StartAllBack

    Back at it - while the answer to your question finally became clear - with latest news related to Start Menu and future intents. Tho, nothing new.... "the usual corporate cringe even (Google, Facebook and co)" - as in.... "Advertisement!" What you need to know Microsoft has began testing...
  2. Here are the apps that could block you from upgrading to Windows 11 version 24H2

    It's April. Don't see the point in stressing over an update - intended for September, but usually delayed till October or November. A lot can change till then. So I'll dabble with this - after or during the install (in case - they change something till then - which implies some incompatibility).
  3. Microsoft is blocking Windows 11 build upgrades on systems with StartAllBack

    It's true, tho. 😜 Just look back at Windows Millennium - where people where hating on Microsoft for bringing so little to the table compared to Windows 98. Thus, they released XP - and the people were happy. Then with Windows Vista - they tried to do the opposite (and give more) - but people were...
  4. Microsoft is blocking Windows 11 build upgrades on systems with StartAllBack

    Currently and for a long time - that's Apple's territory: macOS meant only for proprietary hardware, and only the way Apple desires. Even the hardware - meant to be repaired only by official Apple services - at the most overpriced prices. Thus, the thousands of Apple lawsuits against thousands...
  5. Microsoft is blocking Windows 11 build upgrades on systems with StartAllBack

    If i was to guess - i'd say some of the changes involving this updates - caused some conflicts/issues during beta testing. That would be the logical assumption - cause as was proven in the past - when it comes to implementing all kinds of changes - Microsoft is also known to work in mysterious...
  6. Microsoft is blocking Windows 11 build upgrades on systems with StartAllBack

    Microsoft is guilty of all kinds of things (and worthy of blame) - but this particular case - is not one of them. Point being... their reasoning in this specific case (while taking into account the way Windows works and the ecosystem on which is built-upon) - is mostly valid. This apps (or more...
  7. New Photo App , 1,2 GB !

    Still in development stages (even labeled as a preview tool), so not that surprising. Works for some... ...but not fully functional. Anyway, in all my years of using Windows - always used alternatives to default photo or video viewer/editor - since the alternatives were superior in any way...
  8. New Photo App , 1,2 GB !

    If still free, Photos app will be the only free photo editing app that can do that (as far i'm aware - all the other are Paid). Which makes it a nice gesture from Microsoft - definitely worth the extra size (imagine getting paid extra features for free - and complaining about the size). Also, since...
  9. New Photo App , 1,2 GB !

    That's because it comes with A.I. as in Generative Erase (similar to advanced photo editing tools) - which can automatically erase a subject/object from the photo - while filling that part as if it was never there.
  10. HDD 100%

    Win Key + R enter services.msc - scroll down the SysMain - right click and Disable it Win Key + E - right click on C:\ Drive, select Proprieties and uncheck the following: And yes, Windows 7 does have less background tasks - which makes it less intensive on the HDD compared to Windows 11...
  11. How to remove date but keep time on Windows 11 taskbar

    Take a photo of your Taskbar - and find a paint shop which can match the color exactly. Use a brush and paint over the date - and you'll be left with the time. 😉
  12. Solved Xbox app signs me out whenever I log out but doesn't log me back in

    Some found this useful - while dealing with same issue: When you get an error which displays an "error code" like in you screenshot: 0x89235113 Google for that error code - in this case google for 0x89235113 and you might bump into some topic with same issue - where someone already found a...
  13. Solved Xbox app signs me out whenever I log out but doesn't log me back in

    Probably stops one of the XBOX services - which restarts on reboot. Use Windows Search and type Services - after you open the Services app click on Name (to sort all services by name) - and scroll down till you find the following: : Right click on each of those and click Start. Try to login...
  14. What's your favourite productive app/program to install

    Apples and Oranges. Both can be used as file managers/explorers - but not in the same way. Double Commander is simply more practical (in more ways than just one - since there's dozens of extra settings and different ways of doing things - which one may find more practical). It helps and it's...
  15. What's your favourite productive app/program to install

    Double Commander - when i have work involving with multiple partitions (moving files or simply browsing/using files from multiple partitions). Tho, most seem to use it - as a file manager and replacement for Windows Explorer. Started with Total Commander (long ago) - switched to Free Commander...
