No sign of this crap in Powerpoint 2024 here - so far. S

This POS started appearing yesterday in my Office 2024 Outlook classic as well now. The button is visible but does nothing - yet. And there are NO settings within Outlook (or any other Office 2024 app) to address Copilot in any way S

Wow. My total bad. Seems I got my motherboards mixed up. Please disregard - and thank you for the catch! S

As do I. Sys Restore (to me) was never intended to be a "return to a distant point in the distant past' kinda thing. It is an ideal way to "return to a state 10 minutes ago now that this file is acting up" kinda thing. If I ever needed to go wayyyyy back - I would restore a Macrium full...

If you need to go back more than 2 months - you have bigger issues than worrying about System Restore. S

My main workstation is an ASUS Proart z490-Creator running Windows 11 24H2 and contains an Intel UHD 630 Graphics chip. I built this workstation clean in Feb 2025 and during the build (following the usual recommended installation advice) - STARTED with the ASUS (Intel) driver for this...

The update was delivered to my main machine about 15 minutes ago: Fast install. No issues on the other side. Til next month.... S

Why would one want to re-use a 59 day old restore anyway? I do use Sys Restore points but they only make sense if used within a specific timeframe. No way I would want to reintroduce a 59 day old system back into today. S

I am definitely in no rush as they must be holding this back for a reason. Will wait it out and know that it's solid. S

Nothing here either - and PSWindowsUpdate did "claim" it was available: Yet after running my typical script: The first three listed above are now installed - but no sign of KB5060842 on this machine: Still rockin 4061 S

UPDATE! Looks like I found the culprit. Have one Win 10 22H2 VM that I use very regularly - that is a "device" tied to my MS account - and upon further inspection - it did have Shared Experiences - toggled on. Not exactly sure how it got like this as this VM has been in use for 3 years now -...

Yeah - I am aware of knee capping the notifications - but I am really more interested in why the system is even generating a notify in the first place. Logically - this makes no sense whatsoever. You can't nag me to sign in to "continue app experiences across devices" when it is abundantly...

All Been using 24H2 since early February - but this annoying message - is triggering a daily Notification and I have hit a dead end trying to determine where it is coming from: For the record - I use a local account. Will always use a local account - and there is zero chance of ever signing...

Well - that's the way it went here. Not going to spend a bunch of time wondering why. As noted in the post I linked to - my "desktop" (user) folder - was a plain manila folder as well - until I CTRL-tweaked the icon size on the desktop. Now the folder is returned back to one with my user...

Update - after trying about 20 different things including swapping OUT the PCI-e card and reverting back to the onboard Intel NIC - and then doing a multitude of network reset type activities - including an obscure reference to clearing the ARP cache - this thing simple works again as of this...
