I was just wondering if Gamebar/Xbox app has the ability to screen share or "broadcast" to friends like Discord does?

Does Win 10 22H2 harm the i7 14000HX CPU (laptop CPU) or not? What is the best update of Win 11 currently suitable for the laptop configuration (i7 14700 HX + RTX4070)?

It's a multi-billion dollar company with large data centers around the world. The process of ESU registration is automated. There's no staff that registers every single user by hand.

But still, they need to roll out the ESU registration process slowly from region to region. Probably to not overwhelm their servers. (And allow users more time to consider Windows 11.)

Idk if any of that made sense, but I want to take a single audio file, convert it to a WEM, and then replace every WEM file in a game's files with all the duplicated ones I make

I'd really rather not do this manually so I'm wondering if there's a program or Windows feature I can use to get this done

Windows 10

I'm hoping to start a discussion about the automatic app updates from the Microsoft Store and how they currently function, as it's a source of significant frustration. The core issue is that even when "Update apps automatically" is turned off in the Store settings, updates are still frequently forced through.

My primary reason for wanting to control this is to maintain a consistent user interface. I use Windows 10 by choice because I prefer its Modern design language. However, recent forced app updates are replacing this UI with the Fluent design from Windows 11. This creates a jarring and visually inconsistent experience across the operating system. If users choose to remain on Windows 10, it's often for reasons just like this, and forced UI changes undermine that choice.

This also raises a couple of other important points. Firstly, when an update is forced, it's unclear if we are also being forced to accept a new user agreement without explicit consent. Secondly, for users on metered or limited data connections, these unwanted background downloads can be a genuine issue.

The current toggle feels ineffective. A clear, accessible, and respected option to permanently disable automatic app updates would be a major improvement, giving users proper control over their system's appearance, data usage, and software agreements.

Thank you for the help. Here is temp Premium features key just for you: 4ShareTesters

I have an older PC that had a registered version of Windows 7 Pro x64. A long while back I did an in place upgrade to Windows 10 Pro x64 and I guess the free upgrade period had expired because I had to obtain a new activation code for Windows 10 Pro. I have never had a Microsoft account so I have only had a local account on this computer. I am wanting to upgrade the motherboard and CPU and I am sure that will require my Windows 10 Pro to need activating again. Also, it is worth noting that in Settings -> Update & Security -> Activation, it shows that "Windows is activated with a digital license", which I didn't expect since I entered an activation code to activate Windows 10 Pro on this computer. When I use an elevated powershell and enter "wmic path softwareLicensingService get OA3xOriginalProductKey" the response I get is only "OA3xOriginalProductKey". But I still have my Win 10 activation code and the "ShowKeyPlus" app in the Microsoft store confirmed it is the correct key.

I know that if I have a Microsoft account it makes reactivation easier. But if I go through the process of Settings -> Update & Security -> Activation -> Add and Account, will that simply link my product key to a Microsoft account and nothing else, or will that add a Microsoft account login account for my computer so that I have to login with my Microsoft account instead of my local account?

If I make this hardware change without adding a Microsoft account, can I reactivate my Windows 10 with the same activation code that I used to originally activate it and therefore eliminating the need for a Microsoft account?

How secure is encrypting the hdd with bitlocker then deleting the keys? Can you still recover the files that way? How do i delete the keys? Others also said to Encrypt drive with bitlocker on one PC then format it at a secondary computer, why is that?

I'm considering reinstalling windows due to performance issues, however I am scared of loosing stuff such as Adobe premiere pro videos, clips, etc.

Hopefully the image is clear. I have a window, which Chrome, just above the taskbar, but below that window and slightly above the taskbar I have another window, which likely Chrome as well, but cannot touch it. If I get close the mouse cursor switches to the resize mode for ether the Chrome window or the taskbar, even if the taskbar is locked.

The simple solution is to move the Chrome window up a little so I click behind it, but I would like to know if there is a way to disable the cursor changing to resize and to be able to click on the exact spot I want or need to? Thank you.

I am changing system icons, and I would like to change these ones too, but they are not in imageres.dll.mun\shell32.dll.mun\prnfldr.dll.mun. Where can I find their images? (They appear temporarily while the file thumbnails are loading.)

Let's say the official support for Win10 has ended and new games and applications started coming out after this, and I still use a Win10. Will I be able to use those apps and games? I'm thinking that obviously companies won't make them optimized/suitable for Win10 anymore, so that we'd run into issues.

This is important to me. Just upgraded to Win11 and hated it. I wanna keep using Win10

i want them for my windows 10 themed windows 11 computer

I have 2 PCs. They're on the same network, same router, same subnet, and have all the correct settings, registry values, firewall not blocking, etc.

I can't for the life of me get windows file sharing to work. I've tried every single thing in every tutorial, I've tried asking chatGPT, I've run over every single possible scenario causing it to not work that I could find online, and I simply cannot get the two PCs to share folders, even though they can ping each other.

I'm completely burned out on spending hours trying to fix what should be the most simple fucking thing windows can do, so I just want a free third party app or software that can mimic the function of sharing a folder on windows over a LAN that actually works and isn't going to give me a headache. I literally spent the better part of 6 hours yesterday trying to share a single folder. I tried googling it but I couldn't really find anything that seemed to be what I was looking for.

All I want is to be able to view a folder that's on the "host pc" from my "main pc", and cut/copy/paste/use what's in there on my main PC, without having to connect / enter credentials everytime. It's not particularly big files or anything, so transfer speed isn't even a big problem (about 100 mb per file, and only 1-2 files at a time)

Well after downloading a stupid virus filled emulator this Linux file suddenly appeared when I went into my files yesterday, I can't do anything with it and I would like to remove it but it's impossible because it contains absolutely nothing.. It's not a program or anything just an empty thing.. I really want to get rid of it because I have a bad feeling about it.

Hi, My system specs are: • H310 • Intel Core i3-9100F • 16GB DDR4 RAM • RX 580 8GB • 128GB SSD + 1TB HDD

I’d like to know which version of Windows would be the best choice for me.

My usage is pretty casual: playing games that my system can handle, downloading and watching movies/TV shows, light web browsing, and listening to music with an iFi Nano iDSD amp/DAC + HiFiMan Sundara headphones using Spotify, foobar2000, and Equalizer APO + Peace.

Which Windows version would you recommend?

During a period of insanity, I upgraded from windows 10 to 11.

It took me over 10 days to realize my GPU can't be read by any softwares (NitroSense, MSI afterburner, NVIDIA GeForce), and my effing bluetooth doesn't work.

Gods this company is shit. I wish more games ran on my linux partition.

I'd like to go back, but all the instructions I see point toward microsoft's official pages, like its media creation tool, which mentions only upgrading to 10, not downgrading.

I'm comfortable with creating bootable websites. But I need an iso. Where can I get an iso so that I can keep my licence when I downgrade like I kept it when I made a clean install upgrade?

considero o windows 10 o melhor sistema operacional do momento, meu pc não suporta o w11 mas tbm não faço questão de atuallizar,pois ja estou tão acostumada a usar o w10 que não quero trocar. alguem pensa como eu?

i need it for my windows 10 themed windows 11 computer

Basically I found acopy of windows 10 on the internet archive that has build number 21390 even though windows 10 22H2 is build 19045.

Some builds of windows 11 are as low as 21370 meaning they have a lower build number than windows 10. I also found that windows server 2022 has the build 20348 so I really don't know why microsoft went ahead and made these build numbers if they were going to replace it with windows 11 anyways.

Also why did build 21390 even get developed if it was going to get scrapped mere months later in favour of windows 11?
