I will give the suggested manual cleaning of print heads a go but I'm not convinced. It's very odd that text documents print absolutely fine but the minute you throw in a spreadsheet alignment is...
Yep good call if it's the printer then the test page should be suffering the same issues. I will try this tomorrow.
You lost me on the last bit I'm afraid.
Thanks for replying Paul but I'm not using Excel. I've tried to print from Google Docs and I've tried pasting the values only into a Libreoffice sheet and the same happens. I also get problems with...
Okay I know this is not quite relevant to these forums but I'm unsure where to turn. I've looked at posting on a few printer specific forums but they're as good as dead activity-wise. So I'm hoping...
Just so you can see what I'm getting
C:\Windows\system32>powercfg /availablesleepstates
The following sleep states are available on this system:
Standby (S3)
Hibernate

Thanks for the suggestion Denis but alas it didn't work. I uninstalled Nvidia drivers completely and wiped them off my system and did a reboot. With no drivers just the MS default bog standard one...
Windows 10 Pro (22H2)
Yet again my computer won't go to sleep after recent updates. What I've tried:
Using an elevated prompt nothing shows up for:
powercfg -requests
powercfg -lastwake

Absolutely amazing from you all. Not only have I got an answer that works I've learnt something.
I bought this XPS from a seller on Ebay (came with Win10 Pro) and it's served me well for several...
I've got a Dell XPS 13 8th gen i5 which was running Win 10 Pro fully activated and wanted to install Win 11. I decided to start afresh and to do so by downloading Win 11 from here using the second...
Yes I'd come across that page but dismissed it as much of the stuff suggested had limitations. But having had a second look I've downloaded Recuva and photorec. So will attempt a rescue with these.

Can anyone recommend free software which might be able to recover files which have experienced corruption. The files are on a camera SD card. When I view the file structure some of the contents of...
For anyone else having problems with their computer not going into sleep state and have tried all the usual powercfg commands this is for you.
I checked the following and was none the wiser:

I created a basic second user account on my Windows 10 computer, I also use Google Chrome extensively. I was miffed to find out that simply logging out of Google in that second Win10 account does not...
I've been trialling Xbox Game Pass for PC for evaluating FS2020 for the past two months and I've not really used it due to time constraints. So I thought I'd go in and cancel it tonight before I get...
Yep, so far so has mine :D There does not seem to be a repeat of the sleep issues. I'm going to take your suggestion of sleeping the updates for 7 days but can I safely assume that anything related...
Regarding....
Log entry @17:45 The previous system shutdown at 17:24:10 on 03/03/2021 was unexpected. (Event ID 6008)
Huh!? What shutdown? System has been up for several days and I've been using...
Thanks will take a look, puzzled about the other log entry though :)
The 'flashing cursor' no longer flashed and seemed frozen and could not be moved though was able to move the mouse pointer, use the keyboard but when I tried to chose sleep or hibernate nothing...
No problems with this party continuing as is :party:
Doesn't look like it is. There may be a very cut down trial version.
So effectively with this software your PC account admin or not can be hacked and broken into. I've never had to do this but I would have thought there are plenty of instructional videos on YT already...
I did now :chuckle:
But regardless the situation is ridiculous.
Scenario: If you wake me I'll ask you for a password. If you reboot I won't. Hence the whole reason for a password being active...
Well err, just as well you didn't hear the expletives :mad: what were ushering forth from my mouth a couple of days ago when for the umpteenth time my Windows desktop wasn't doing what I thought it...
Is that what they call a silver lining?
