So, you’ve taken the plunge into Windows 11 24H2 expecting a shiny futuristic OS, and instead, you’re greeted by sluggish load times or irritating app crashes. Perhaps a critical app isn’t playing nice, or the new features just aren't meaningful to your workflow. Whatever the reason, you want to...
Windows updates are generally considered the lifeblood of an operating system, akin to regular check-ups at the doctor’s office. They're designed to keep your system running smoothly, introducing new features, enhancing security, and fixing bugs. However, as many users have experienced, updates...

In a recent development that has rattled many Windows 11 users, Microsoft has confirmed that the new build (27723) in the Windows 11 Insider Canary channel is causing significant issues for users with older Nvidia graphics cards. If you happen to be sporting a vintage GPU—think GTX 970 or Quadro...
Hey everyone.
So I was playing around with some linux distros installed on the same disk (I know, I know, not ideal, but I only have on SSD on my laptop) and now Windows update fails, and I think it's because of the changes the linux installations made to the bootloader, since major Windows...

I upgraded to Windows 11 and found it to be pretty annoying. I rolled back to Windows 10 using the "go back" function. It reverted, but immediately downloaded Windows 11 and now wants to reboot to upgrade to 11 again. I cannot find any way to prevent this. I paused windows update while I search...
Explanation: So, at least for now, once you join the Windows Insider Program and join the DEV Channel, you will NOT be able to revert back to perform a roll back after 10 days. That is how long Windows internally keeps a backup of the previous OS installation. So the Windows Dev Channel is a...

Windows 10 has trouble with small boards, even recent ones. The latest update bundle tries to install video drivers that makes the whole update roll back on restarting. When you tell it not to, and update your drivers before the update, it goes in after two more tries. Oh boy.
Hi all,
A while back I upgraded from 1909 to 2004. However, one particular piece of software started misbehaving and I had to roll back (there were a few other issues as well, but these were minor). Since then, that particular app has been updated for compatibility with 2004, but Windows update...
I am sooo pi*sed that I'm being forced to "downgrade" to Windows 10. I tried it when it was free and really gave it a chance, but I couldn't stand it, so I rolled back to 7. It was like I could breathe again.
Now that they have ended support for 7 and fearing malwares and viruses, I'm forced to...
I came here for some assistance regarding a problem I can't seem to overcome. We're a VERY SMALL company with only seven PCs and three laptops, and since I guess I'm the only one with ANY 'knowledge' whatsoever about such things (and I am not, in all truth, all THAT 'knowledgeable' in any real...

I recently decided to roll back from 20H1 Insider Preview to current stable 18H2 version on my Surface Book 2. As the previous version was 19H1, I couldn't do it with built-in tools. So I downloaded Media CreationOmegle Appvalley https://pnrstatus.vip/ Tool and rolled back with it. I am now on...

Is anyone else having problems after Windows update installs AMD graphics driver 24.20.11016.6007? My system hangs with a blank black screen at the point where the splash screen should be displayed.
The only solution is to keep rebooting until it enters recovery mode. At that point you can...

I have adopted a fairly old IT philosophy of 'If its not broken, don't fix it' when it comes to Windows 10.
After all, the only 'valuable' stuff on your computer are documents and emails which you spent time on - if these are 'lost' there is a cost to recover this data.
So - for the past...

I did a rollback from my latest Windows Insider build. Afterwards it goes to a black screen after the welcome screen. I can use ctrl/alt/del to get into Task Manager. In there it shows just normal activity. I would think if it was still trying to recover it would show quite a lot of activity. I...

A week ago my 3yo Toshiba Satellite's webcam stopped working. It's been coincident with a Windows and Skype updates which I often use with the webcam. I have tried the Windows Troubleshooting option, and also going into the Device Manager to uninstall the device, reboot and reinstall...
As a windows 10 update just screwed my laptop, I just thought to get back on Windows 7!
So now Ill make daily posts on the Windows 7 Part of the forums!
