Thanks, those settings appear to be defaults and the same as my own Windows 11 machine, which has no problems with mailto: in Edge. Have you checked the URLAssociations key on your other machines?

A VPN? Really? You know that most VPNs, especially ones which are free, send your traffic to third-parties in order to make some kind of revenue? How is noscript and privacy badger going to stop any telemetry data which is being collected on the web server? There is no privacy on the Internet...

Just answered my own question, you used the generic "ESET AV Remover" which is really aimed at removing non-ESET AV software, even though it does state that it will remove ESET or at least some of it. Please use the tool recommended in my prior post and it should remove ESET for you.

I just noticed that you did run the ESET removal tool at the beginning of this thread but it wasn't able to find anything, however, there is plenty of evidence which indicates that it is still installed on your system. Which removal tool did you use? The official removal tool requires booting...

Please don't manually rename or delete the pending.xml file, that's just going to cause a potentially big headache (please read: Why you don’t want to edit your pending.xml to resolve 0xC0000034 issues). The correct method is to use /RevertPendingActions as you have done, however, that doesn't...

What is the value of the following registry keys? reg query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\StartMenuInternet\Microsoft Edge\Capabilities\URLAssociations" /v mailto reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{3050f3DA-98B5-11CF-BB82-00AA00BDCE0B} /s reg query...

You can, they might just have to select the actual day in their calendar to see all of them. They still remain in the calendar even if you dismiss the reminder notification; it seems that what the OP has done. They'll need to select snooze instead of dismiss if they still wish to receive...

And the simplest way to answer that would be to boot into Safe Mode otherwise you could look at doing a "clean start", although, third-party security programs like ESET will just enable themselves again so you will need to remove them completely using their removal tool...

If you boot into Windows RE and then select Startup settings, you will be able to access Safe Mode from there: Boot to Advanced Startup (WinRE) in Windows 11 Tutorial I wonder if a third-party service is running under an instance of svchost.exe and then crashing which is causing the entire...

I've dealt with this BSOD before and its always due to some third-party software inferring with the migration part of the upgrade, more details here: Debugging Stop 0x4 – INVALID_DATA_ACCESS_TRAP

It looks like both of the recent crashes were related to the svchost.exe process being terminated. 8: kd> dt _EPROCESS -y Exit ffffe70154f930c0 nt!_EPROCESS +0x460 ExitProcessReported : 0y0 +0x7d4 ExitStatus : 0n-1073741819 (0xc0000005) +0x840 ExitTime : _LARGE_INTEGER 0x0 8: kd> dt...

There's a Win32 API function which you can use to be notified of when a key has been changed: RegNotifyChangeKeyValue function (winreg.h) - Win32 apps Alternatively, you could look at using Sysmon? Sysmon - Sysinternals I don't think that is the case, from a dump file I've been looking at...

@libirm Could you please provide the dump files for those crashes?

I'm not sure why you're that concerned about the telemetry data which Microsoft is collecting, you do know that every website you visit collects telemetry data about you? And no, ad blockers aren't going to block all the server-side telemetry data which is collected. I assume that you have a...

Have you first checked for any corruption using DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth? How are you updating as well? Is it through Windows Update or by doing an in-place upgrade?
