    Hi sithlord Don't know about Edge or Chrome but with firefox you have to be site specific. Open settings > Privacy & Security. Scroll down to Microphone and select it. Choose your sites and uncheck " Block new requests" Have you done this yet? I'm going to assume Edge & Chrome have similar settings
  3. Closing lid does not shut down laptop

    If that statement was directed at me I couldn't care less about that nonsense. Only somebody that does would suggest such a thing. Done here. :mad:
  4. Future of Firefox

    Why limit yourself to a single browser ? I've been a diehard firefox user for years, before that, netscape navigator. Currently, I have four browsers. Firefox, Librewolf portable, Google Chrome Portable and Vivaldi Standalone. Honestly, It really doesn't matter to me which way it goes. It is...

  9. Event ID 566, The system session has transitioned from 197 to 199

    Hi user1010 I would suggest you download and run "FullEventLogView". No Install needed. Note the exact time your monitor powers up from sleep state. The utility will tell you more about the trigger in a list view. Event Log Viewer for Windows 11 / 10 / 8 / 7 / Vista
  10. Unexpected update for unknown (to me) device

    I would suggest "Driver Store Explorer". Shows all installed drivers + removal options +everything else you asked. I use it all the time for driver version updates. No installer, just unzip and run "rapr.exe" May take a minute or two to show the results. Depends on the system. Release...
