Windows 10 SOLVED: USB flash drive shows full when it isn't... but not when using File Explorer
I download YouTube files using 4K Video Downloader on to a USB flash drive which seems to be working perfectly.

Windows 10 USB SD card adapters stop being recognised
All the cards and adapters worked in my PC to start with, and they all still work in my audio systems. It's clearly not a problem with the SD cards not being recognised by Windows as I still have one adapter that works fine with every SD card in the PC. I'm quite baffled by this. Surely these...- This Wreckage

Windows 10 USB SD card adapters stop being recognised
Strange problem: I use micro SD cards to store music files I play through home audio systems. My PC has no SD card port so I use various USB adapters.

For some reason, the Quick Access list of folders in File Explorer recently included an elastic list of folders from my Music library. If I remove one, it adds the next one in the alphabet. How do I remove all these Music folders from Explorer?- This Wreckage

Windows 10 Internal audio sounds odd
My Dell Optiplex 3020 running Windows 10 has two audio drivers (I make music on it) - a Realtek HD Audio and a Yamaha driver for my Steinberg audio interface.

I had to downgrade to Win 10. Unexpectedly, there was a massive Windows.Old directory created, and it's proving difficult to delete all of it.

Windows 11 Problems Signing into Nearby Sharing
I'm trying to use Nearby Sharing for the first time with my Android phone. Although I'm signed into my Windows account as an administrator, the Nearby Sharing page demands that I sign into an old work account that I've not had access to in years. How do I change that to be my Windows account?- This Wreckage
