Probably a good idea to keep a copy of this video on a flash drive in case you can't get to YouTube when your 'puter goes haywire.

Priceless.
I'm going to mention this channel in an article in conjunction with a local repair shop.
Both are amazing deals.

Several years ago, I decided to upgrade my Win7 PC to Win10. Everything was working just fine under Win7, I just wanted the latest-greatest. After installing Win10, all the USB 3 connections stopped working as USB 3. My connected USB 3 backup drive stopped working and the front panel audio and USB connections stopped working. I checked that all the drivers were up to date and even bought an USB 3 expansion card. It doesn't work either. I have always updated Win10 whenever updates were available. Do you have any idea about what may be going on? TIA

I just found a new(to me) app in 10 Pro that does not show up in Apps or a search. It is called Bitmap Image. I played with it some and it appears to be a Pic and Vid editor. I have no idea as to why I can't find it as mentioned. Any ideas in this? Thanks

@BrettInTech can you please guide me. I bought new hp laptop in September 2023 and till date it has crashed windows twice. Can you share how to prevent this issue from recurring

You can get both dism and sfc commands on the context menu by running winaero tweaker portable and selecting it from the context menu section, you can even export all your configured settings and import them in other pcs. Works great for me

to let you know, I did turn on the blue light STOP, I have the stop blue light on all the time now, I adjusted the blue light %, sure makes a difference looking at the screen all day, thanks for this tip, don't know if this makes sense, having the blue light off, makes the screen softer to look at...

Thank you so much. Cheers, L'liz✨

I still can't fix the dreaded right-click menu popping up randomly in my W10/21H1 setup. I've updated all the Windows settings, run the System File Checker Command, the DISM Restore Health Command, deleted and re-installed the mouse and touchpad drivers, but... nope. Anyone got an idea for how to banish it?
