Thanks to everyone's great help and advice, I was able to complete a flawless Windows 11 Pro installation today without one byte of data being lost from my 2 internal platter drives. I cannot thank you all enough!!!

I've also done that as well. I really appreciate your trying to help but I think it's gonna have to be a Windows 10 in-place update to reset everything and, hopefully, get things working correctly again.

No go. The search blank is not there and the commands found nothing wrong.

Ok, here's the crazy part. .htm & .html ARE set to Brave but Edge is still showing in the basic default setting page as the default browser; HOWEVER, the other file types you listed HTTP, HTTPS are not showing as file types in the default screen where you can select by extesion?!?!?! I feel...

Ok, I did Open With for a video file and was able to restore the VLC connection between my videos and the VLC player BUT, again when I try the Set Brave as Default browser setting, it takes me to the Window default settings and only gives me the options of Edge. I don't know what's going on.

Ok, this is getting really weird. I followed the directions and it took me back to the Windows default settings and now Mailbird is showing up as an option to select for my mail client. Sooo, I went into Brave and selected it to be my default browser again and it did the same thing, took me to...

Thank you very much for the suggestions! This is very helpful.

For some strange reason, just all of the sudden, everytime I click something that needs to open a Browser, Mail, Media Player, etc. it will not select my default programs anymore (Brave, Mailbird, JetAudio, VLC). When I go to the set default programs, they are listed but I cannot select them...

Everyone, I appreciate the numerous responses I've gotten but I need to get this thread a bit back on track. What I'm really looking for is a USB Storage device (~10Tb or more) to offline store movies on. Yes, the movie can be re-ripped or downloaded but I'm mainly looking for responses on...

Thank you for all the Excellent information and insight into WD! Do you have a hardware preference or just look for the specifics you listed?

Thanks for the site link! That'll help my search as I HATE trying to shop on Amazon. Ugh!

Minimum USB 3.0 speeds as I have one of those port on the front of my PC the others on the back.

Very reliable let's just say.

Well, not really. I'd like a decent speed if possible from a PnP Device. What I'm really looking for is a Brand people have better luck with (WD, Seagate, SanDisk, Samsung, Toshiba, etc.) From there, I can decide on the amount of storage I want based on the cost. Right now, both my data...
