Just askin', in view of the horrendous time I'm having trying to change some settings on my recently arrived Dell Inspiron. I've now had two massively time-consuming attempts at trying to achieve auto log-in, based on advice appearing on the 'Net as to how to manage this on a Windows 11 machinebut without any success: the Inspiron appears to accept the changes but then carries on regardless afterwards.
Anyway: enough of the background.
As the first screenshot shows, this PC is running Windows 11 (version 21H2, OS Build 22000.556.) That marches up with what Dell told me when I ordered this Inspiron from it at the beginning of this month. 'The model comes with Windows 11 installed'.
Fair enough. However, I have no idea what purpose is being served by what seem to be vestigial fragments of some partly erased text appearing on the Version information: what on earth is the mysterious 'org name' doing beneath the identity of the licensed user?
Presumably the phrase started out as 'Organization name'. . . but if so, why its only partial removal removal from display?
Comparing the screenshot of that Windows version information with the next screenshot of Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version (from which I have edited out the 20-character alphanumeric ProductID in the interests of my own security) the following may be noted:
ProductName Windows 10 Home
ReleaseID 2009
So. This computer says it's a Windows 11 and a Windows 10 device.
Shomething wrong shomewhere???
