    @antspants thank you! I was close, I was for some reason looking in the Application section.
  2. Solved Can I determine when a Power outage turned off my computer?

    Windows 11 24H2 - 26100.3915 I Just had a brown out at home, my lights went off for less than a second, my computer shut down, but it powered itself back up, I guess the power outage triggered it to restart, I'm not exactly sure. It attempted to boot three times, booted on the third time...
  3. File Explorer Location Box Drop-downs: How can I remove items?

    I need a better image, I'll work on that and update the OP for clarity.
  4. File Explorer Location Box Drop-downs: How can I remove items?

    EDIT: I'm on the last version of 24H2. I'm heavily modifying (via GPO and Registry) the FileExplorer to show only the Downloads folder and any attached devices. For the location box, there are these down arrows which allow me to navigate to certain folders, for instance, the user's Music...
  5. Solved Black screen after update

    I don't have another monitor, I'm actually in tech support at a library, but I've never seen this issue. Obviously, the cables weren't an issue, I'd see the POST, I'd see the initial welcome screen with my Username, and I would also see a popup from an app I'd installed to upgrade firmware for...
  6. Solved Black screen after update

    I apologize, I'm on my phone, and I'm not very savvy with it, I'm just to a computer, big screen and mouse. I updated my Windows 11 23H2 PC last night, turned it on and the screen was black. I know I'm logged in to Windows, CTRL ALT DEL works, I'm at to open apps if I can find the exe. I...
  7. Audio Recording Only: Wanting to record a YouTube Video and Mic.

    I apologize, I did leave out some critical information. I'll be using YouTube to capture the sound, I use the Brave Browser. For my voice, I use a regular microphone, plugged into a Focusrite Scarlet Solo, which plugs into a USB Device. I'll be plugging in a wired XLR Mic to its audio port...
  8. Audio Recording Only: Wanting to record a YouTube Video and Mic.

    I want to practice some songs on karaoke, so what I'd like to do, is capture the sound from a YouTube Video (there's plenty of karaoke videos there) when I click play, then sing along to it, thus merging two audio devices. How would I go about doing this using Windows 11?
  9. Installation and Upgrade Repair Install Windows 11 with an In-place Upgrade

    Do both of these methods still work in 2024 with 23H2 on unsupported hardware?
  10. How do you customize Start Menu pins of an AD user?

    I've got a bit of an issue. Windows 11 Pro, and this is an Active Directory user. We use Group Policy, not Intune. Also, right-click is disabled on the Start Menu and Desktop. I'd assumed that customizing the Start Menu was as easy as creating a .JSON file and importing it via Powershell...

  12. Why does my FileExplorer Freeze for 10-25 seconds and then become usable?

    I've been just dealing with this problem for awhile and finally decided to tackle it. Awhile ago, I was having issues with my sound and blue screens. I actually just uninstalled BitDefender and that problem went away, this was several weeks ago. I've been since depending on Windows Defender...
  13. Upgrade from Win10 to Win11 - How much free space do you need?

    I'm soon going to upgrade my PC at work from Windows 10 22H2 to Windows 11 (likely 23H2). When I first looked into it, my 256GB HDD had about 5 GB of space available. I removed Visual Studio 2022, since I wasn't using it, and if I remember correctly, it's now got about 25GB of free space. How...

  15. How can I tell why my computer blue screens?

    @zbook, I actually disabled Bitdefender last night after the Bluescreen to run one of the other tests. I haven't had a Bluescreen, since, so I was leaning towards it being the culprit. I will follow through with your instructions and get back to you, thanks.
