Using Acer 1760 Win 11 23H2 I have forgotten my password on the save as with password option. How do I go about unlocking it to edit etc? I can send to a Microsoft trusted person by email if required. Please help as I need to finish the file for Christmas and still lots of editing needing to...

No, but do take a backup of your private files as a precaution to disaster

I can see where your coming from snodgrass. Windows is a very good OS that has served me well for 35 years But.......If I was using Win1 it would be prone to all sorts of niggles and hacked to death by now. Win 11 is all about old computer hardware being brought up to date. What's the point of a...

Hi, hope you can clarify, System Win 10 21H2 build 19044.1415 Win Experience Pack 120.2012.3920 Had an update kb 5008212 and when read through online it mentioned an enablement package (EKB) and not to bother if I have KB5003173. I Recently had a fresh win 10 download to cure a problem so have...

Well that's it folks, all answered out, unless the processor one size drawback is eased . Thank you all for your help

Thanks Guys. Neemobeer, one last thing, you have not mentioned if your 2 systems were fully compliant with regards to the PC Health check scan? My computer works fine, Microsoft suddenly gave me optional updates to 13 drivers, a month or two ago for hardware. I did not use any as I found it all...

I take your point gentlemen. The only nagging at the back of my mind is that I have had free upgrades since the original Win1, I'm 73 and programmed in basic if it helps to put it in perspective. Will I lose the link between free upgrades if I miss 11 now and hereafter have to buy anew, later...

Hi all you technocrats I was hoping to update to Win 11 but my computer fails on the following points; Although there is a technical specifity to my questions, I hope it also opens up a more general discussion My computer details at bottom of page. 1) Processor is 3rd and not 8th generation or...

Hi WinPro, Thanks for the reply. Tips n tricks OK, I do that with a foreign language! I do not record passwords anywhere other than my memory. The trouble with changing my password is running out of memorable passwords as most sites won't let you use an old one to revert to. Wary to find the...

Just a sudden thought for the pot. What happened to the Microsoft Accounts troubleshooter? I cannot see it on the list under troubleshoot> additional troubleshooters. Is it incorporated into one of the listed ones? Where is it? Would it be sensible to use, if found, on 20H2 eg If Mic Acc's...

Thanks for the reply Dave67, on the right track. Using Option 1; I cannot find "Let apps on my other devices open apps and continue experiences on this device from on to off". Using Option 2; "Email & Accounts> Accounts used by other apps" shows my e address with " Microsoft account All Apps...

For a long time now when I start up I get a warning in the notifications popup that "Microsoft account Problem. (Your password has probably been changed). select here to fix it in the shared experiences setting" I then have to enter the same code as I had to use for being allowed to enter the...

Yes, an invite by email to remind me to go and look at the conversation. I will check with the sender as to the exact details if you wish.

Equally Frustrated! There is no Office 365 app in my computer. How can I personally log into our Yammer group manager's 365 that is on another computer controlled by another owner in a private office miles away probably under a different server, I can't can I. So how do I stop the redirection...
