      September 8, 2023 at 3:36 pm in reply to: MS-DEFCON 2: Windows 11 21H2 nears end of life #2586129

      Microsoft and every other big tech company operates in their own best interest. If that happens to coincide with what is in the best interest of consumers, they get to crow about it. Other tech companies that are more dependent on retail consumers than Microsoft do a much better PR job. Do not be fooled by the PR.

      I hope I am not hostile to any viewpoint that is reasonable. It may seem to you that I and others are Microsoft apologists but for the most part, we’d rather get something done, help someone out, or figure out a problem than spend so much time and energy bashing Microsoft for any of their many faults.

      BTW, bbearren’s cost included annualizing the initial hardware cost. That is there for anyone who has a computer.

      See Use attack surface reduction rules to prevent malware infection | Microsoft Learn for Microsoft’s explanation. Of course, being Microsoft you’ll have more questions after reading the article(s).

      Here’s a blog post that may help too – Demystifying attack surface reduction rules – Part 1 – Microsoft Community Hub. It is the first in a series.

      I think you may mean “indicated” instead of “indicted”. But, then again maybe not. 😁🤔

      August 30, 2023 at 7:52 am in reply to: Laptop Processors #2584375

      The  AMD Athlon™ Gold 7220U is the rough equivalent of several older Intel Core processors. Those Intel processors far exceed the Pentium 4 in capability.

      If you want an AMD processor and your budget allows it you should look for a newer Ryzen processor. If you want an Intel processor look for an 11th or 12th gen I5 or I7. The I5  processors are usually pretty close in performance to the I7 processors and generally cost significantly less.

      August 23, 2023 at 11:29 am in reply to: Sync desktop between win 10 and win 11 #2583090

      Several items on my desktop are located in C:\Users\Public\Public Desktop. Try that. Also, when I create a shortcut in C:\Users\Myname\Desktop it appears immediately on the desktop. If you right-click on the default Desktop folder located on your PC in File Explorer, you can change the location to where you created the folder.

      Third-party programs that interface with the Windows shell often have issues after Windows updates. You might want to consider one of the more mainstream start menu apps mentioned in FREE EDITION: Your worst Windows 11 irritations — solved! @ AskWoody

      It appears that the Ribbon has been customized. Do you share the Office subscription? Can you customize the Ribbon to remove the Add-in button?

      They may be part of Microsoft’s regular cadence now but I don’t know of any businesses that would deploy optional preview updates on a regular basis. Maybe if the update contained a fix for a severe problem. But, even then only after testing on a limited number of machines.
