After last month's Windows Updates, I noticed Remote Desktop was listed under Programs and Features as an uninstallable program. After this month's updates, Paint is now listed.

Is Microsoft...

Thanks, that's a very detailed guide. I'll look into it some more later when I have the time to read through it in detail.

Can I install via remote desktop or something like that?

I've been wondering what to do come October 2025, but with Microsoft now hinting that Windows 12 is coming a lot faster than Windows 11 did - likely while Windows 10 is still in support - I'm...

How does Windows having hibernation help me savestate a program?

Uh ok but how does that help me?

I really like VM snapshots, but VMs have very heavy overhead, being essentially a computer within a computer.

Thus, I'm wondering if there's software out there that can provide the same...

I can't tell the difference between boot time with it enabled vs disabled. I'm sure that if I used a stopwatch to time it there would be some difference, but with modern CPUs and NVMe SSDs, is there...

First of all, this question is about inputting a display resolution that doesn't exist on any physical monitor like e.g. 1234x5678, not about picking from the dropdown list.

Secondly, no help from...

I'm on 1909 right now. Assuming Microsoft doesn't change their support policies (again...), I have no intention of installing any feature updates until 2109, and even then not until Spring 2022 when...

Yes, I'd heard that Microsoft is treating users like beta testers with Windows 10, but I always thought that applied to the semi annual releases and their new features, not something as critical as...

So, QC has gone out the window with Windows 10 and I'm better off not installing faulty Windows Updates until several weeks after Patch Tuesday when Microsoft has hopefully gotten their act together?

A picture is worth a thousand words, so:

Actually, I had a Windows 7 PC plugged into the same port until I got a new PC 2 weeks ago, and this never happened with the old PC.

I unchecked that option, but sadly the network adapter still turns off every night :(

Is there something else that also needs to be disabled?

Every morning when I get to work the PC is awake, but all of my programs either report that they have been disconnected or start reconnecting to the network when I unlock the computer.

Is there...

With Vista/7/8/8.1, having more than 1 HDD/SSD physically attached meant that the system partition(s) could potentially be on any disk. Is this still the case in 10, or has Microsoft finally fixed...

And does it have all of the "essentials" like ad blocking?

Well, if there's a free, well-known program that can do this, I wouldn't mind going that route either.

Are these 3 versions essentially identical out of the box, except for the way Windows Update works?

I use wired ethernet on my laptop, so the wireless goes unused. Thus, I'm wondering if it's possible to set up my laptop as an AP, so that devices like my smartphone can get a better signal when...

I just noticed when checking my router that my Windows 10 computer is named something like DESKTOP-XXXXXX, where X is a bunch of random letters and numbers. Then I remembered that unlike with Windows...

To put it directly, I'm looking for the Windows 10 equivalent of this: Folder View Settings - Reset to Default in Windows 8
