Holding power button down finally worked.

I restarted my zenbook laptop running windows 11 pro in a routine manner (Start, restart). After the restart closed the open apps, the screen went to 'restarting' and just froze there. After waiting a long time for the screen to unfreeze I tried to initiate a manual restart by 1. Holding the...

Possibly. I ejected it for now.

Thank you. I installed Office on this laptop but that was months ago. I opened "this pc" many times in the past and it never showed this mounted drive. That is what surprised me: that it should abbruptly appear now.

This is weird. Windows 11 pro in a laptop with no physical CD/DVD drive. Version 24H2 Today, Opening "This PC" suddenly shows a non existent DVD drive E: ! Furthermore the non existent drive has content: This non existent drive is listed as a UDP . Seems to contain files to instal Word. I...

I want to thank you all for being so helpful. I installed Karen's tool because it makes everythingt simpler. I did not know about it before I read about it here. Thanks.

I will look into it. But the command line should work. Aha! Thanks.

This must be simple but I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. Windows 11 Pro I want a dir of D:\My Images I open a command prompt. It opens as C:\Users\my username> I type dir /a /s /b /tc /ta /tw > D:\filelist.txt and get (naturally) the dir of C:\Users\my username>...

Worked like a charm. Thank you so much and for being so patient in helping a total stranger. I'm not sure what I did wrong the first time but now all is good.

No luck. still no macro visible even though it is present when I search for it. I need to go. I will revisit tomorrow. Thanks again for all you are doing.

Here are some screen screenshots: Current Ribbon What you requested: This is my current ribbon: When I click on Add-ins, I get "The add-in store has been disabled. ........" It instructed me to change the setting in account privacy to allow additional ..... and reboot. I just did so and...

I'll do that when I get home. A thought that occurred to me: As instructed, I saved the macro as Excel 97-2003 Addi-in *.xla I am in W11 pro and my Excel is 2021. Could that be the problem?

Reboot did not help. I have to go somewhere now (wife insists), so there is not hurry.

No It does not appear under all commands. I will reboot and see if that makes a difference. There is no urgency. Don't mess up your holiday.

Thank you so much. You are not only a genius but a great teacher. Thank you for taking all the time to do this! Unfortunately, I am both an Excel novice and not as good a student as you are a teacher. Everything went smoothly until I came to step #10 "10) in Left Pane > click dropdown > Macros...
