    Windows 10 installation media is not reproducible

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 11:43 PM PDT

    I am using Windows Media Creation Tool to make an USB installation media, and every time I make it, the checksum of two files change: install.esd and boot.wim. It makes it really hard to check the integrity of boot media, and honestly, there is absolutely no reason why the checksum of the files should change in the first place. Can anyone shed some light as to why this happens?

    P.S. Yes, I know I can download the ISO and use Rufus, which will give me a 100% reproducible installation media, but I do not understand why the official tool creates a media that is not reproducible.

    how to make a bootable USB for an old system

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 09:05 PM PDT

    how to make a bootable USB for an old system

    I found Dell XPS 8300

    BIOS doesn't have GPT for UEFI support

    so need to USE MBR

    I've tried various options

    I guess I need to be EXACT to what I select under MBR

    I did try various options in regards to

    [ ] List USB Hard Drives

    [ ] Add fixes for old BIOSes

    [ ] Use Rufus MBR with BIOS ID

    what do they need to be?

    I also have a feeling that maybe the Win10 OS I'm trying to load is too old?

    because I AM able to get it to boot with an Acronis Recovery USB

    any advice?

    with other USBs that I create it either shows a black screen and hangs

    or

    shows ...

    >SYSLINUX 4.07 ... Could not find kernel image (see picture bellow)

    or

    shows Rufus screen explaining to make MBR (see picture bellow)

    hmm

    I did try resetting BIOS to defaults to no avail :/

    hmm

    I'm thinking the .iso I'm using might also be the cause

    BUT I was able to use it to install OS on another machine

    just not compatible with this very old machine?

    I should try another one

    or some totally other approach?

    thank you

    Should I wait on Windows 11

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 08:09 PM PDT

    I have a laptop (Lenovo Legion 5) with AMD Ryzen 7 4800H and RTX 2060 graphics. I use them mainly for programming and music production(Cubase). Based on your experiences, I just wonder is it worth upgrading to Win11 on my laptop right now or should I just continue using Win10 for now?

    Also, I don't have any reason to upgrade to Win11 other than the excitement to try it out lol. Win10 run just fine for my workflow on this laptop.

    Hey

    Do you know any way to change the date format and language/keyboard selected icon, so they aren't cut and hide under screen? Windows 11 using the registry thing to change the taskbar size.

    Windows help for Linux pros.

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 02:12 PM PDT

    For a few years I've been digging through the Linux rabbit hole and I would say I know the system just about inside and out: Daily driver on Gentoo, custom kernel, self-developed Portage overlay, terminal warrior workflow, everything short of literally contributing to every single program I use.

    I do however still need to interact with Windows for work environments and I've come to notice that apart from a few things (like the magic SysRq or some Event scheduler candy) both systems are likely capable of fairly similar stuff administration-wise, they just work differently. My problem is finding the right buttons to push.

    What are some good resources for advanced Linux users to get an equally advanced, deep handle on Windows for administration, configuration, development and other power user purposes? On Linux I'm used to the manpage system and Arch Wiki, but the MSDN often doesn't cut it for similar concerns.

    Device names

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 09:14 AM PDT

    Possible daft question, about to get my first Windows PC for a long time. (Quite excited haha, Windows 11 looks pretty clean!)

    For silly reasons that are irrelevant, I'd like to have a space in the PC name to allow it to match a theme with my other devices, but it seems like Win11 still doesn't allow spaces or even hyphens/underscores.

    Is there a reason for this? Android/macOS/iOS seem to get on fine with networking when device names have spaces in them :O Is it just dogma or is there a practical reason it still isn't supported? Is it legacy support (eg. not naming a file 'CON' to keep compatibility)?

    Do Windows Explorer replacements handle the File>Open dialogue from applications?

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 12:54 PM PDT

    This thread has a pretty good summary of Explorer alternatives: https://www.reddit.com/r/windows/comments/6wseq1/is_anyone_using_an_explorer_replacement_fulltime/

    Is the File>Open>(File Explorer) behavior a standard feature that is handled by some of these alternative apps, or is that a core function that can't be altered?

    How do I force close every Window

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 08:12 AM PDT

    The only way to trigger this seems to be by shutting down the Pc and hitting Cancel when

    the Window pops up warning you that some Programs are still running

    Any way to trigger this without hitting shut down?

    Microsoft's continuous delay of Windows Vista release date

    Posted: 23 Mar 2022 07:05 AM PDT

    Edgebar must be a joke, right?

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 03:21 PM PDT

    Let's try reposting this here, because a bot removed it on the windows 11 subreddit.

    ------

    Saw edgebar as an option in my taskbar today. Funny, I didn't buy windows 11 for $100 with this, guess Microsoft decided I want this for me, thanks for that.

    Opened it, and imediatly disgusting. Bing is default search, bing is pinned to the top, can remove other things, but can't remove bing. Can't remove news either.

    Okay, so i figure I'll give it a chance, I go to switch my profile to my personal account, it crashes, and takes down every edge browser I have open with it.

    That was a joke right? April fools! Uninstall please?

    Second hand PC, clean out and reinstall Windows

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 06:56 AM PDT

    Discussion about buying a used PC - I bought a used PC, with windows already on (legit license), but want to clean up the hard drives and make sure there is nothing suspicious or anything dodgy on them. Do I create an installation USB, format the hard drive and then reinstall using the installation media? Will this ensure anything that was done to the PC in its current state is gone, and everything is now fresh? I have also read that flashing the BIOS is recommended - what does anyone else do in this case?

    Is there a way to modify list of apps visible in start menu? (Windows 11)

    Is there a way to modify list of apps visible in start menu? (Windows 11)

    Can I somehow™ modify list of installed apps in start menu? Because I removed some system bloatware (type of MS Edge, Get Started, Maps, Family, etc.) and I'd like to get rid of their links in start menu. Some of them could be removed with UninstallView and Registry, but others not.

    Is it possible to get the Windows lock screen image ("Windows Spotlight") to change more often?

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 08:22 AM PDT

    I like seeing different photos on the Windows lock screen, but for me it changes very infrequently - only once every week or two. Is there a way to have it happen every day instead?
