Windows Backup also has an entry in Services which is set to Manual by default.
I've disabled it as you can see in the attached image.
I have never run it by the way but it shows 9 seconds of...
Hi,
I go through the "old" Windows 10 Control Panel.
Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Task Scheduler >Task Scheduler Library.
They should appear there. Here's a screenshot of mine...
As well as the 3 Edge Services that need to be stopped and disabled there are also 2 Task Scheduler entries relating to Edge updates that also need to be stopped.
I've always stopped and deleted...
I suspect that rather than breaking anything, each month's cumulative update will just reinstall Windows Backup and you'll need to go through the process of removing it every month.
Same goes for...
This gets rid of the System labels (for now at least):
KB5032190 Windows 11 Cumulative Update Build 22621.2715 (22H2) and 22631.2715 (23H2) | Page 3 | Windows 11 Forum
Works in Windows 10 as...
And now for something completely different.
Perth, Western Australia... where we are sweltering through an unusual November heatwave.
Summer 'officially' starts here on December 1st.

Shame it doesn't include a paddle control and games like Breakout/Super Breakout, Warlords and other games that require a paddle to play them properly (even Pong would be great).
I have that...
Do you have a USB mouse that you can connect to the laptop?
Have a couple of Lenovo laptops here that I had the same problem with but a USB mouse worked (you don't really need the keyboard to work...
Sorry to appear 'picky' but that picture isn't Titanic (although it has been claimed to be many times over the years).
It is actually Titanic's sister ship, Olympic (the first of the 3 Olympic...
I don't mind the desktop shortcut appearing for Edge after an update - I just delete it.
However, this tends to be a bit on the annoying side - it seems to appear after a certain number of updates...
Using CCleaner Free here.
I always disconnect from the Internet when installing or updating CCleaner. Been doing that since Avast bought Piriform about 5 years ago.
This is what I do:

Hi,
Same thing still happens with the latest 511.65 drivers. Someone has just reported this on the NVIDIA forums.
...
511.23 has 'killed' Paint Shop Pro 9.01 for me on 2 different fully up to date Windows 10 21H2 64 bit PC's.
Just sits there with the opening 'initializing' box in the middle of the screen and...
Does anyone else think this guy looks like Dick York who played the first Darrin Stephens in the 1960's TV series Bewitched?316903
Just dug these out from 2013. Both were taken at Coventry Village Markets here in Perth, West Australia.

The first one should be chicken breast, of course. And, I believe the second...
Thanks for that 20% rebate info, IronZorg89.
I've just purchased a second Home licence from Macrium. I'm about to start building another PC here (with a slightly older motherboard, graphics card,...
Ah, yep. I forgot about that (another senior moment). I was looking for a separate entry for CBT to remove in the uninstall/change list in Apps/Programs and Features in Windows yesterday and it...
Actually, the method I used to remove CBT was this (after a Google search):
Navigate to C:\Program Files\Macrium\Reflect and run MrCbtTools. Once the application is open, press 'File' > 'Remove...
Thanks, kado897.
After doing a bit of reading about Macrium's CBT it doesn't look like I need it anyway since I only ever do full backups - at least once a week or before making any 'major'...
Thanks, Stigg.
I've just removed CBT from Macrium Reflect (I had to Google how to...lol) and the blue screens with my external dock no longer occur.
I'll have to keep an eye on that since CBT...
OK, updated to 5283 (paid version of Macrium).
I have an"Orico" USB3 hard drive dock on my desk and if I insert a 'blank' SSD and try to create partitions on it with Windows 10 Disk Management I...
Not sure if I've mentioned it before but these sorts of shenanigans are the reason why I always download the latest version of CCleaner then disconnect the PC from the Internet before running the...
Absolutely!
That's why I always recommend to my friends that they support this great company by buying the software like I've done even though the free version is probably sufficient for most...
Thanks for those Hosts File entries, Callender. Works a treat. CCleaner (free version here) opens instantly now although it didn't really bother me having to wait about 10 seconds for it to open.
