  1. Window's Weaknesses

    Just an Update: I finally got into the Microsoft Store App. I tried to install, as suggested, 'Dynamic Theme.' Looks like a pretty good app. But as you can see in the image it is stuck with the wheel turning around for over 2 hours now. Considering my Infinity-Ethernet connection is rock solid...

  2. Window's Weaknesses

    Yes...would like to use dynamic theme...except I can't get into the Microsoft Store! As far as installing Windows being "labor intensive" you are correct. It is automated....until you have to spend hours reinstalling programs and Apps. I haven't tried the option that keeps your programs and...

  3. Window's Weaknesses

    Yay Microsoft!....They just do what they do and we jump into their rabbit holes. Choice...What Choice...oh yeah if only $$$ wasn't a concern one could buy a Mac, use limited software choices in Linux etc. My Internet connection is downloading at nearly 1000 MB/S...not the problem. Get real boys...

  4. Window's Weaknesses

    Whatever the reason, some of their software is so whacky they need to get it together make it work...otherwise...why bother? Let me know if you can get Windows Spotlight to work consistently and if your Lockscreen image can be changed. Also, I'd be interested how many can get the Windows Store...

  5. Window's Weaknesses

    Version 22H2 As I write I have been waiting for 30 minutes for a picture to be added to my lockscreen and for the Microsoft store App to load. I have also spent a couple of hours with tier-2 tech support trying to resolve these issues, which, by the way, were also problematic with Win 10. I...

  6. Black Screen on Windows Startup

    Win 11 / 64 Build 22621 Dell XPS8950 16 GB Ram I get a black screen on restarting Windows with my account picture. Windows starts without having to enter Password. Is there a way to get a Lockscreen or spotlight image to show on the restart screen? I have enabled each one at different times...

  7. Co-Pilot

    Supposedly one can get rid of the new copilot icon on the taskbar by going to settings/personalization/ TaskBar Items. But there is no listing for copilot as suggested in some articles. I have just updated Win 11 to the latest incarnation....so why would this copilot icon not be listed as an...

  8. Lockscreen (Again)

    A few days ago I had to use my local account to reconfigure Win11. (I couldn't sign into my Microsoft account). Now, the lockscreen on login is a black background.. The account photo shows up but not the chosen photo in Lockscreen settings. Nor will the Lockscreen load a picture that I choose...

  9. Problem with Real Tek

    Seems like the Line-in is "out."....I plugged in the audio from my phone and got nothing...same with my portable CD player. So Dell is replacing the motherboard. Seems like it is wedded to the Sound Card! Not so smart...will cost them a bunch and me...just the hassle of reconnecting everything!

  15. Win 11 (Latest)...Chrome Issue
