    How to prepare a new laptop

    I've got the new PC and I'm trying to set it up at my home. My granddaughter is not with me. I got through all the preliminary steps--language, keyboard layout. Now I'm looking at signing into her Microsoft account, which she's had for years, and I'm getting a little perplexed and annoyed. I...

    How to prepare a new laptop

    I've purchased (but have not yet received) a new Windows 11 (Home) laptop for my adult granddaughter. In my limited experience with such things, I've known that new computers typically ship with built-in bloatware--stuff that the user will likely never use, but that takes up precious storage...

    Can I run Wizard101 on this laptop?

    A 14" screen is quite sufficient for her use, but I would consider larger; she does not need a touchscreen. I'll look forward to reading your assessment of the three models you mentioned earlier. Thank you.

    Can I run Wizard101 on this laptop?

    I appreciate your detailed response. I am curious as to how you arrived at the "64 GB of storage." The specifications show "Solid State drive capacity: 160 GB."

Right now, she plays the game on an HP laptop that's a couple of years old and shipped with Windows 10. It's not up to running Windows 11, and I'd like to get her a new (but not expensive) laptop that...

    Can I rename my fresh Windows 11(1) installation?

    Good morning, datawizard0103! I was impressed with the AI response that appeared within seconds of my posting last night. Still, I'm glad to get your reply. I feel more confident dealing with a human. Control Center does display two versions of Windows: "Windows 11" and "Windows 11(1)." You...

    Can I rename my fresh Windows 11(1) installation?

    I run Windows 11 as a virtual machine on a MacBook with Parallels. Windows crashed a few days ago, and I had to reinstall Windows and Microsoft 365. Now when I launch Windows, I see it has named itself Windows 11(1). It's a small thing, but that little "(1)" annoys me. Can I rename it to read...
