This tutorial will show you how to turn on or off sleeping tabs in Microsoft Edge for your account or all users in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
The Microsoft Edge web browser is based on Chromium and was released on January 15, 2020. It is compatible with all supported versions of Windows, and macOS. With speed, performance, best in class compatibility for websites and extensions, and built-in privacy and security features.
The sleeping tabs feature in Microsoft Edge makes background tabs sleep after two hours of inactivity by default in order to free up resources for active tabs, new tabs, and other applications on your device. Sleeping tabs will fade to indicate they’ve released resources. To resume a sleeping tab, click/tap on it...
This tutorial will show you how to turn on or off instant updates in Microsoft Edge for your account in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
Starting with the Canary and Beta builds of Microsoft Edge, Microsoft is intruding instant updates in preview, which makes getting the latest browser version more effortless than ever. Instant updates is an opt-in feature that restarts your browser to install any pending updates while you're away from your computer. This means that critical security bug fixes will reach you faster, and new features and enhancements will be available to apply earlier. You never have to think about it, and your browsing will be optimized and secure.
Today, many browsers, including Edge, wait for you to manually close and...
This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable Windows protected print mode for all users in Windows 11.
Starting with Windows 11 build 26016 (Canary) and build 26052.1100 (Dev), Microsoft has added Windows Protected Print Mode (WPP).
Windows protected print mode lets your PC exclusively print using the Windows modern print stack which is designed to work with Mopria certified printers only. With Mopria certified printers, users no longer must depend on third-party software installers as well as get additional security benefits. Print devices will “just work” resulting in a safe and streamlined installation and printing process.
By default, Windows protected print is not enabled and there are not any restrictions on the print...
This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable Administrator Protection for admin approval mode elevations in Windows 11.
Starting with Windows 11 build 27718.1000 (Canary), you can now enable Administrator Protection to use for Admin Approval Mode (aka: elevated rights) instead of User Account Control (UAC).
Administrator Protection is an upcoming platform security feature in Windows 11, which aims to protect free floating admin rights for administrator users allowing them to still perform all admin functions with just-in-time admin privileges. This feature is off by default and needs to be enabled via group policy. Microsoft plans to share more details about this feature at Microsoft Ignite.
Administrator protection requires...
This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable the "Rewrite with Copilot" feature in Microsoft Edge for your account or all users in Windows 10 and Windows 11.

When you’re writing in the Edge browser, simply use your cursor highlight a passage that you want to try rewording, and you’ll see the Rewrite menu appear for you to click. When you click Rewrite, Copilot will generate a first draft to suggest rewording. From there, you can select from tones, lengths, and formats to try on...
This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable automatic sign in on Microsoft Edge for your account or all users in Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Starting with Windows 11 build 22631.3810 and Windows 10 build 19045.4593 (RP and Beta) Microsoft is evolving the Copilot** experience on Windows as an app that will be pinned to the taskbar. This enables users to get the benefits of a traditional app experience, including the ability to resize, move, and snap the window.

This tutorial will show you how to find and list all installed Linux distros for your account in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
The Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) lets developers install a Linux distribution (such as Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, Kali, Debian, Arch Linux, etc) and use Linux applications, utilities, and Bash command-line tools directly on Windows, unmodified, without the overhead of a traditional virtual machine or dualboot setup.

This tutorial will show you how to turn on or off requiring a password (sign-in) to buy something in the Microsoft Store app for your account in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
Microsoft redesigned the Microsoft Store app from the ground up in Windows 11, making space for more content, keeping the user experience simple and responsive.

All the content in the Microsoft Store is tested for security, family safety and device compatibility.
The Microsoft Store app in Windows asks for sign-in approval (ex: password) every time you buy something by default. This can be useful to prevent unauthorized...

Starting with the latest Microsoft Edge version in the Canary channel, you can now turn on or off "Keep the Edge window open when closing the last tab".
By default, when you close the last tab in a Microsoft Edge window, it will close the window.

This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable the touch screen for all users in Windows 11.
A touch screen, or touchscreen, is an input device that enables you to interact directly with what is displayed, rather than using a mouse, touchpad, or other such devices (other than a stylus, which is optional for most modern touch screens).
If your device (ex: laptop or tablet) has a touch screen, you may want to disable and enable it as needed.
You must be signed in as an administrator to enable or disable the touch screen.
