Another possibility might be Drime. 20 GB for free account. Servers are in the Netherlands and France. https://drime.cloud/

I switched to using Google Drive. Microsoft started getting too pushy with OneDrive for me and Google Drive is less expensive for the amount of online storage I use compared to OneDrive. Works as well as OneDrive without having to worry about Microsoft changing settings on me. OneDrive has been...

Your Hotmail sign-in is also your Microsoft account sign-in. Using a PIN or passkey are just different ways to sign-in. Any of them will work, it is just up to you. You can sign-in to your Hotmail (Outlook) account from any Windows device, even one that you don't use or own (I do on my wife's...

I checked my computer by running the check command first. It returned with a "False", so I ran the other two commands and now the Secure Boot keys are updated. I do run Bitlocker and had no problem updating. System restarted normally.

Open Macrium Reflect and look at the log files. They'll show you what happens when your backups run. For any that have an error, you can look at Event Viewer to see what happened. Then, if you still have questions click on "Help". It will open links to both the Macrium Reflect manual and to the...

I just tried running an offline scan on my computer with the same result. I think it has something to do with the way the Defender offline scan works. I also have my Bitlocker keys printed out and saved to a USB thumb drive. For some reason it won't read the flash drive, requiring the key to be...

OP would perhaps be better off using Settings>System>Storage, then selecting "Show More Categories" to see what is taking up disk space. It would be safer and more informative for him. I installed the WinDirStat program and it didn't seem to tell me much of anything useful (I'm no expert). It...

Glad to hear it worked.

I would delete the downloaded folder and see what happens. Also look in the Program Files (x86) folder. It may have installed as a 32-bit versus 64-bit program.

I posted what I had found so that if someone else came here with a similar issue it might help them.

I received a reply on the Microsoft Community site. A moderator provided me with a solution that isn't perfect but it works. It involves uninstalling the current Movies & TV app and replacing it with an older version. There are two drawbacks, though. The first is that I need to open the old...

I don't think so, either. But from what I've seen there's a lot of unhappy campers out there so that makes me just one more. I will close out this thread and hope it serves as a heads up for others. Microsoft should have done a better job of warning users of what was coming. I've been aware...

I've submitted feedback to Microsoft and have gone to the Microsoft Community and submitted a question there. I actually stopped purchasing or renting digital videos over a year ago because, unlike a DVD or Blu-ray disc, it is too easy to lose access. I quit years iTunes when Apple changed...

I can get that far, myself. It is when I actually try to go past that when I see the errors. And I do appreciate your efforts.
