Thanks for your suggestions.



Yes, I have already set the file associations that I mentioned from within the app.



I downloaded the batch file and ran it but txt icon is still broken.

Windows 10 Pro 22H2

UPDATE: I forgot to mention in my post that I'm using the portable version of Npp. So I decided to install the standard version, then uninstalled it using the option to delete...

I seriously doubt it's anything to do with channels being swamped. My two nearest neighbours are about 500m and 1km away. I live rural with only six houses in total on a 4km stretch of road. Then the...

I think I can answer without even doing that because, for the Starlink network, I'm the only one who uses it so no other devices are connected, or trying to connect, to it anyway.

Thanks, I didn't even think about that. Was going to try that today but thought I'd just check my current account first and, what do you know, connected to all 2.4GHz networks with no problem....

Unfortunately, it was short-lived. Back to not being able to connect to 2.4GHz networks. Tried the PowerShell net adapter reset again but no luck - not even after a PC restart.

That is good to know, thanks. I'll add it to the notes I made for if it happens again.

Just as a note, bear in mind that PowerShell only appears in that menu if it's been set to in Settings. By default it's Command Prompt that appears there ;)



This worked!!!!! And I didn't even...

Thank you so much for the great info. I knew I would forget at least one of the things I'd tried and a Network Reset was it �� But I don't recall if I did it before or after I uninstalled my VPN. So,...

I have no idea when this issue started but my laptop no longer connects to 2.4GHZ Wi-Fi - "unable to connect to...

Thanks but I still don't know what you mean by that. How does it relate to the problem I'm having?

Sorry but I don't understand what you mean by that.

Thanks but no, I don't think it's anything to do with that. These are drives that mostly contain media files, and the laptop they're plugged into is only used to run the media server for those files....

Windows 10 Pro 22H2 (on both laptops)

I have two laptops at home. One of them has two external portable drives connected and I've had sharing setup for both the drives for several months along...

Windows 10 Pro 22H2

Why does Windows 'lose' access to network shared folders? I notice this usually happens after waking from sleep or hibernation but sometimes it just happens randomly - I'm in a...

Thanks again. I didn't know that and since I don't actually check very often, it may well have happened before and I just haven't noticed.

No, I haven't set up two different LANs. Yes, the second router is being used as an access point with no routing. Both routers have different names so we know which one our devices are connected to....

Windows 10 Pro 22H2

I'm having a networking problem with this laptop. My main router (router1) is in the lounge. I have a second router (router2) in the bedroom connected to...

Yes thanks, I realise that and the hub I have is USB3.

Thanks, that's what I thought might be the case but I just needed someone more knowledgeable than to me to confirm it.

UPDATE: Thanks everyone who commented. I plugged both hard drives into the hub and the speeds for copy/move between the two went from approx 30MB/s to approx 100MB/s. I am very pleased.

Windows 10...

Somehow I ended up deleting my previous reply so I'm just re-commenting in case it's of help to anyone else.

This is exactly what the issue was. I changed both laptops to Private and that was all...

I ended up having to return home not long after I was chatting with you so didn't get a chance to try your suggestions. However, I will be going away again on Wednesday so will definitely do it then...

Yes, that is correct.



Ah, that may have been the issue. I didn't know about that.



Didn't know that was possible so that's a very handy thing to know, thanks.
