I have three friends who all bought this HP ENVY Notebook computer HP 2024 Envy 17t Amazon HP Envy 17t-CR0000, (Windows Home 23H2) that I in turn set up for them. Two of the three work fine with no problems, however one computer (after installing some Windows updates) that the speakers stopped...

Firefox is not running on the computer that I'm trying to copy the profile to. Apparently this has been a problem for a few months and even the suggested solution that is being provided on the Microsoft forums (which I tried and it doesn't work as mentioned in my post) doesn't fix the problem...

That's exactly what I'm trying to do, it's Windows 11 copy that's not showing the "Do you want to overwrite the existing files?" dialog and just copying them all as copy's of the originals which is useless.

That's a possibility, I'll try that and see.

As I mentioned, I opened a command prompt as administrator and then opened both explorer windows from there so they are running as administrator. It's not a rights issue it's some problem with Windows 11 not showing a dialog asking if I want to overwrite the existing files but copying the files...

I understand what your needs are but in this case the user needs history, currently open tabs etc and this technique has worked for me for a long time and somewhere on Mozilla's website are instruction to do just this. So again, how can I copy and overwrite files in Windows 11 when it won't let...

This morning I was trying to migrate an older Window 10 Pro computer to a new Windows 11 Pro computer, one thing I almost always do is to backup the C:\Users\<Name>\appdata\local and .\roaming Mozilla profiles to then copy into the new Mozilla profile on the new computer. No matter what I tried...

Your method worked (see my other reply) thanks!; re: "Note: Be careful though. A very large number of fonts will slow your boot time. ^^" I've been using this same set of fonts since Windows XP and my current computer boots from a Samsung 990 Pro and I don't really care if it takes and extra...

First looking at the directory C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Font I could see all the default fonts as well as the fonts I tried to install, they existed in that directory. Second, the Windows Font app Personalization / Fonts showed everything except the fonts I installed...

Ok I downloaded AMP Font Viewer and despite the font file of the fonts I installed being in C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts I can't see them in either the Windows Font App nor AMP Font Viewer. Clicking on Not Installed Fonts didn't show me anything, I had to to browse...

This year I built myself a new computer because I was dissatisfied with the old one which I built in 2020, Intel i9-13900K; 32gb Corsair Ram, Samsung 2tb 990 Pro ssd, Zotac 3090TI graphics, Asus Creator motherboard and it's currently running Windows 11 Pro 23H2 build 22631.2861. The old computer...

I have a relatively new build, Asus ProArt Z790-Creator WIFI motherboard, Intel i9-13900K, Corsair 32gb Dominator Platinum, Thermaltake Core X71 Case, Windows Pro 22H2 and I have installed a Startech HSB100SATBK 5.25 Trayless hotswap Bay: And I have the sata port in the motherboard bios set to...

Ok so I switched it back to standard, I used the secure erase function in the bios to wipe any data from the Windows 10 installation out so the ssd should be blank. I am using a flash drive created with the latest Windows 11 Media Creation Tool; yes TPM 2 is enabled in the bios. I reset the bios...

I've got a computer 10th generation Intel i7, Asus Prime H570M-Plus motherboard, 16gb Corsair ram, 1tb Samsung 980 Pro m.2 now the old ssd a Samsung EVO died and the old installation had Windows 10 but I'm now trying to install Windows 11 on this new ssd which as far as I can tell should be...

Ok I did that and I can read the print, so it's weird but every webcam I've had showed the image flipped the other way so it seems like every other webcam was wrong for some reason and this one is right.
