    please help me with windows defender

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 03:20 PM PST

    when i boot up my laptop (t480) windows defender works for like 10 to 30 mins and then it says "threat services has stopped . Restart it now" in the Windows security and when i press on "Restart now" after like a minute or two i get "Unexpected error. Sorry we ran into a problem. Please try again"

    Event log under system says "the windows defender service service terminated with the following error: general access denied".

    everything was up to date. and here's what i did:

    1. tried creating new admin profile and it still the same.

    2. looked at the registry and didn't see it was disabled.

    3.tried starting it from service manager and it behave like i was restarting the laptop. and it was set to automatic which is greyed out and the rest of the buttons but start is active.

    1. dism and sfc reported everything was good

      1. can't restart security services as all buttons were greyed out
      2. installed malwarebytes and reported I'm clean

    hope someone helps :)

    Windows 10 1909 install freezes at varying percentages

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 07:47 PM PST

    I have been trying to reinstall Windows 10 to see if it would fix a driver issue. I created a USB using the latest Media Creation Tool. Wiped, reinstalled, and rebooted but get frozen at "Getting devices ready 60%". Tried the process over again but stuck at the same percent; this was late last night. Tried again this evening with making the USB with Rufus and making sure that the partition scheme and target system where set to GPT and UEFI (non-csm) respectively. Since I only have the UEFI options set up in my motherboard bios, no legacy/CSM options are set.

    When I tried installing Windows with this new USB, it got to "Getting devices ready 100%" but then froze. I looked up what may be causing this issue and based on one post, I tried again after the 100% freeze and unpluged my mouse, keyboard, and the installation USB right after it reboot when finishing the install. After reboot, though, it froze at 25% this time 🤦‍♀️ I have since walked away, so I don't know if it has moved any.

    I built this system a little under a year ago, I don't think it would be the SSD failing or anything like that.

    Does Windows 10 just not like only UEFI turned on in the BIOS? What can I do to finish this reinstall?

    Thanks for reading, and I hope someone might know why this is happening.

    ETA: I made sure to update the BIOS to the newest version before wiping out the SSD and trying to reinstall Windows. I had been meaning to do it for a while and figured it was a good time.

    Edit 2: My motherboard has built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, it wouldn't have anything to do with the antennas still being in, would it?

    Question about the "Run" tool.

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 11:02 AM PST

    We all know that one tool that isn't used that often, but it's still very useful when you're trying to get to directories super deep in the file explorer. Win + R. I was just going to a file directory somewhere in AppData, when I realized. I've never understood why the Run tool calls AppData by an alternative name of %AppData%. I wasn't able to find an explanation anywhere either. So I figured I would ask here. Does it have anything to do with the fact that by default AppData is a hidden folder? Did Microsoft just call AppData that for no particular reason? Could anyone explain that to me?

    Can't reset my Windows PC

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 11:35 AM PST

    I tried to reset my Windows PC but when it's resting it just jumps in the WinRE and when I than Start Windows again, it says that no Changes had been made.
    I already tried:

    - Turning off and on the WinRE
    - Renaming System and Software (i couldn't rename Software because it was running in the
    background) in the Command Prompt in the WinRE
    ( https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2823223/unable-to-refresh-or-reset-pc-after-automatic-repair-fails-in-windows )
    - Run the system file checker (which also didn't work)

    Any help would be appreciated
    (Sorry for any spelling mistakes)

    Is there a way to pin a window from moving?

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 06:50 PM PST

    I like to snap my browser to the right of the screen, stretching about 2/3 of the way across the screen. Every time I close my browser, the window ratio remains the same, but it creeps off the right edge a couple to a few pixels. Is there any way to make an application launch connected to the edge of the display? Or at best load up exactly where it was before?

    [Unpopular opinion] The old windows logo is way better than the modern one we have

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 08:21 AM PST

    I miss the windows 7/xp/vista logo, i mean it just represent windows better than the new, all blank one without any color, i personally don't like the windows 8/10 logo and prefer the old good-looking one of windows 7/xp/vista if you know what i mean.

    It's nostalgic and simply have a better form than the new rectangular logo of windows without any color.

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 03:13 PM PST

    For 2 days, Windows Movie Maker has been doing weird things it never did before.

    The screen (which is playing the video while editing) is completely out of focus. It zooms in the entire video and the saturation is gone (the video is grey). I tried to reinstall it twice from different links. Nothing. I tried to save the project and VLC plays it zoomed in too. I don't know what to do and I need it really soon! Please someone have any idea what I should do ??

    OneDrive Notification Will not Dismiss

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 06:34 AM PST

    OneDrive Notification Will not Dismiss

    Hey folks, got a yellow check mark that was yelling at me to add OneDrive to my device to protect from Ransomware. I'm not really interested in Onedrive at all and don't want the feature linked to my files.

    So I navigate to the Windows Security setting and look to just dismiss the notification. I tried clicking this dismiss button and nothing at all happens.

    I restarted the pc, tried setting up one drive...removing it...and trying to dismiss to no avail. The yellow check mark is still yelling at me and I cannot dismiss this notification.

    I'm wondering if any of you have experience with this issue and any insight on removing it.

    Thanks in advance redditors!

    Google Account Acting up - Google Images Wonky

    Google Account Acting up - Google Images Wonky

    When I go to on Google Images (https://google.com/search....) The images under it and the entire webpage is wonky, not working correctly. https://imgur.com/a/XwIF72W

    1st Second of loading Google Images

    Scrolling down

    Scrolling further

    It's happening on my phone too - same google account

    Description of the Images:

    When first loading Google Images, a black large magnifying glass fills the webpage then a second later, the images I searched are displayed but on the left side in a single column, one on top of each other. Nothing to the right of them, but a white empty webpage. When I scrolled down the Images appeared in rows, but not organized and not spaced. It seems like there's something wrong with my HTML of the website, or I may have malware, I'm not sure. I deleted my extensions, I turned off my Proxy, I deleted and reinstalled google chrome, I scanned my system, and restarted my computer. Nothing changed. It's Happening on my phone too - with the same google account.

    When I log out or use the Incognito tab everything is fine, but can someone please help? I would like to use my google account. Thanks!

    Until then, I guess I'll log out of my account and use google images.

    Guy using windows on a Mac here (don't kill me please) and windows won't recognise my USB C hub whereas my Mac partition does, anyone have any advice?

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 05:07 AM PST

    All my drivers are up to date and the hub works great on the Mac partition of my SSD, but windows repeatedly pings me saying it doesn't recognise the USB device, my comp has 4 USB A ports and 2 USB C so I'd really like to be able to make use of that USB C hub, but I just don't know why my Mac partition recognises it yet my windows one doesn't when I have all my drivers up to date...

    Kernel_Security_Check_Failure blue screen when gaming or when coming off of sleep.

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 07:33 AM PST

    I feel my PC slowly dying in the hardware department soon, but I've been getting a lot of driver-related blue screens lately (as in 2 months already), and usually when I'm playing games or when the computer comes out of sleep mode. I've already tried sfc repairing and chkdsk to no avail already. I have the latest DMP file I got from the blue screen available to me, but don't know what to make of it. All help is appreciated! Thank you.

    My Specs:

    Windows 10 ver 1903

    B85MG Biostar

    Western Digital Blue WD10EZEX-00BN5A0 1TB SATA3 - 7200 RPM

    GTX 970 4GB

    i5-4590 3.30 Ghz

    Disable Win+Tab combination or map to alt+Tab one.

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 09:43 AM PST

    Question: is there a way to disable the Win+Tab combination (Task View) or, alternatively, a way to activate the "normal" Alt+Tab combination?
    I switched to a Logitech keyboard but the [win] and [alt] keys are physically inverted compared to my previous Apple MacicKeyboard and I'm going to be crazy...
    Pls if someone has a solution, note I need generally the win key. Thx! <3

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 04:52 AM PST

    Being mostly a mac guy, I am working in the windows world a bit more, and I dont hate it, so im not here to start a fight. Im simply looking for some addons to make the experience better. Can anyone suggest a utility to two for the following areas:

    1. Spotlight/Alfred - A key combination that allows me to launch programs, do math, wikipedia etc. More than what the start menu does please.
    2. Hazel - a mac app that allows me to run rules on folders and contents. For example, the download folder - anything older than 2 weeks - purge. Those type of automations. Anything exist?

    Thank you all!

    so I have a shitty pc, and recently got a new monitor (probably wasn't a good idea) and hooked it up, it told me to update my resolution to a setting that wasn't available, so I looked up how to change it and did it, but now since my pc is garbage I cant run anything with this resolution, AND my computer wont let me change the resolution anymore, could I get some help? I've forgotten how I changed it and I cant find a way through any of the menus, its just locked.

    Should I take my computer out of Windows 10 S Mode?

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 12:25 AM PST

    I just purchased a new computer that I will be using to look for online work. I would also like to set it up so that in the rare moments when my toddler is asleep and I'm not tired yet, I can play basic games on it or maybe even just checkout reddit and update my computer's look. What I quickly noticed is that when I tried to download Google Chrome, any of the applications I use on a daily basis, and a couple of different games, every single one of them is blocked by Windows S Mode.

    What I want to know is if Windows 10 S Mode is actually necessary. If it isn't necessary, is it a smart idea to attempt to activate the regular Windows 10 Mode. Have you tried it yourself and what was the outcome? I just want to feel out the situation and get different input on this before jumping on a choice and later regretting it. Thank you in advance.

    Long delay on phone calls in 'Your Phone'

    Posted: 28 Feb 2020 06:18 AM PST

    Anyone else experience this? I tried making a phone call to my GF in the other room, and I could hear her finish a sentence in the other room, before I heard it in my headset. It was the same the other way around.

    I previously used Dell Mobile Connect, and there wasn't as much delay.
