    4 Ways to Fix Group Policy Editor (gpedit) Missing on Windows 10

    What security reasons to switch from Win 7 to 10 ?

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 05:01 PM PST

    I am still using Windows 7 and I read comments from people like "you should switch because security updates and support ends soon" or "switch for security reasons"
    WHAT SECURITY REASONS !?
    Sorry for my attitude but can anyone with sound mind give me one or two real life examples of these security reasons ?
    What possible vulnerability would I experience if I stay on Windows 7 after support for it stop and I no longer get security updates ?

    Mobile Hotspot Questions

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 07:29 PM PST

    What kind of network security does the mobile hotspot have?

    2nd question: is it possible to change the network security protocol to something more secure, like AES with 128/256 bit (a)symmetric encryption?

    Is there a way to force a reinstall of a KB update in 64-bit W7?

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 01:12 PM PST

    I tried to install windows6.1-kb4530734-x64_4aa5440abd6c88a8101f069d0799ff5466048cc2.msu, but it said it was already installed from last Tuesday. I already deleted my WU's installation files. Is there a way to force reinstall of this KB update?

    Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

    Running Microsoft Store Apps from Previous Installation

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 01:02 PM PST

    I recently upgraded the M.2 drive in my computer and did a fresh installation. However, I had an external 2TB WD Passport Hard Drive, with a lot of Windows Store Games (Game Pass Beta games mostly). The Microsoft Store did not recognize these apps. If I try to move apps to that drive (tried to make it recognize there were programs on that drive) and it said that there were apps from another device. I then canceled moving the program (so it wouldn't erase the "programs from another device"), and I'm essentially wondering: How do I run Microsoft Store apps on another device than the one they were installed with? With my internet speed, it would take around 3 days to reinstall everything.

    Windows Store Download and Update Page Infinite Loop

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 01:14 PM PST

    I have Xbox gamespass and cannot open one of the games, the Outer Worlds though it is downloaded and I have run it before. For some reason it stopped working, not only this but when I go to see the downloads and updates page on the windows store it is stuck on an infinite load screen. I can load other games like Gears of War fine but not the Outer Worlds and what's worse is I can't see any of my downloads because the page won't load.

    Is there ANYTHING like Mac's zoom on Windows?

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 01:09 PM PST

    I bloody hate how zoom works on Windows. I don't want to scale page to %150 Chrome, i just want to zoom in to where my mouse is. I love how it works on MacOS. You zoom in, read what you want and zoom back without worlds breaking apart. Is it a Chrome thing? Can i somehow get magnifying zoom on Windows?

    How to install Windows 10 education on a new PC

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 06:51 AM PST

    So the parts for my new PC will arrive in less than a week and my University provides a free Windows 10 education key. When I go to the azure dev tools website and I sign in with my 365 office account on a different pc, it allows me to see my product key and download windows.

    From what I've read online, this downloads an iso file on the current PC, but I can't find any information on how to take this file and install Windows 10 education on a new PC. I know that with a home or pro key you use the media creation tool but I've read you can't do that with the education version. Can anyone explain how to install it with a USB drive on a new PC?

    Task Host problem

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 12:06 PM PST

    Hi! Im in need of advice.

    Ive got a band new laptop with just a couple months of use. Yesterday I felt it was hotter than normal without the ouse of any intensive program, and tho its summer in my country, it was not THAT hot. Wen I went to turn it off "task host" appeared (twice) as impeding the shutting off. I forced the shutdown as i had no time to deal with that. Now as im writing this, with the laptop just turned on and the fan louder than normal I tried to reset the system and again I saw the "task host" x2 problem appear.

    What should I do? How did this happen? What the hell is this task host thing?

    Please, any help would be great.

    OneDrive problem

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 12:05 PM PST

    I need to disable OneDrive on my new laptop. If I remember correctly, I disabled it a month ago but I still have files saved in the OneDrive folder. I want to get rid of it altogether. I don't want it appearing anywhere and in no way do I want files to be saved there automatically from games etc. (C:/users/xxx/OneDrive/Documents for example). How do I move all the files out of OneDrive and afterwards get rid of the folder, or at least stop anything from getting saved there? Thanks!

I had a software which would recovery them, the software was called "migration restore utility" but I can't download it right now because the website appears to be dead. Can someone please be kind enough to give me that software I want so I can restore all my files which includes personal photos, videos and some other data like music etc. Please help me out I am terrified.

    The link I preiviously downloaded from is no longer working here: http://dslbdownload.datasafelocalbackup.com/utilities/MigRestore.zip

    Windows 10 adding new keyboard layouts and switching to them randomly.

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 02:24 AM PST

    I use a US layout Corsair K55 and it keeps adding new keyboard layouts like the US-International one which is really annoying since it delays the input of single / double quotes and the grave key.

    Oh and also I get new (?) variations of the US layout but for different countries. I use the English (UK) US layout keyboard but it just added the English (US) and the one where I'm from.

    How do I remove this annoying "feature"? I vividly remember spending 30 minutes of my life trying to delete the new layouts once, following guides on StackOverflow because it was removed from Control Panel and put into some obscure menu behind 50 clicks in Settings.

    Really considering switching back to Linux and just dealing with Wine for games as of right now... One simple line changed in /etc/vconsole.conf would fix all my problems in Arch.

    Casting from android to PC (emulating chromecast?)

    Posted: 15 Dec 2019 01:34 AM PST

    Hi there,

    I have been looking around the web for a way to cast content from my phone to my (Windows) PC. To be specific, I am looking to cast a podcast from Podcast Addict since I noticed it could cast to my new Chromecast.

    I understand this is usually managed on an app-to-app basis since basic casting functionality is part of android and not Windows, but I still suppose there might be 3rd party apps out there which could emulate this?

    To be specific, I am not looking to stream the content from my phone (i.e. screen or audio mirroring), instead, I am looking for something where Windows is streaming the content, but the progress is taken into account on my phone.

    Any information that might point me in the right direction would be immensely appreciated!

    Dumbfounded by Brightness

    Posted: 14 Dec 2019 10:17 PM PST

    I've googled and googled, yet here I am. On my desktop PC I just want a quick way to change the brightness (I often want to dim them at various times throughout the day)

    I cannot change the brightness without using the controls on my monitors (which is a hassle as brightness is in a menu within a menu with those "touch" buttons.

    I do not have the following:
    1) A brightness slider in my display settings
    2) A brightness slider in my action center
    3) A brightness button on my keyboard
    4) A brightness setting in my Ease of Access Settings (just takes me to display settings)
    5) A brightness setting in my Windows Mobility Center (just takes me to display settings)
    6) A brightness setting in my Graphics Settings

    Is there any solution for this?
