Any recommendation would be appreciated.

Guess its on the home users that are being offered, It's strange no mention of Professional, only Enterprise.

From memory they did the same with XP.

Posted by: Galaxy01 - 02-11-2024, 08:38 AM - Forum: PressF1 - Replies (2)

Where has the short-cut to Device Manager in Win11 gone to?

Used to be able to launch Device Manager with Win Key+ Pause (from memory) in previous versions of Windows, but not in Win11.

Where has it gone to?

  A deliberate and unnecessary crash landing
Posted by: harm_less - 01-11-2024, 07:51 AM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (4)

Excellent commentary on the state of our economy and its (mis)management by the coalition. This needs to be presented to all the RW echo chamber commenters who paint the situation very differently.

  Win11 can't restart
Posted by: Galaxy01 - 31-10-2024, 08:53 PM - Forum: PressF1 - Replies (5)

My Win11 Pro sometimes cannot Restart. Nothing showed on screen but can hear fans spinning. I got to press the ON/OFF button to shut it down and then press it again to start it.

Any suggestions?

  Up to 2000 people could lose jobs re school lunche changes
Posted by: Lilith7 - 31-10-2024, 03:53 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (3)

Our delightful govt once again has apparently failed to understand possible consequences of their changes.
75 provider contracts end on Xmas eve & one supplier will have to let go all 47 workers who run the programme. This govt doesn't seem at all bothered by numbers of people put out of work due to their policies - perhaps they've failed to realise that all of those now without work will be among those to have to cope with their harsher welfare conditions.

But then perhaps their aim is to be a one term govt.

  Sam Neill slams govt over Dunedin broken promise
Posted by: Lilith7 - 31-10-2024, 02:22 PM - Forum: News and Current Affairs - No Replies

"Govt by the cruel".

I don't think Sam's best pleased; can't say I blame him & he's far from alone in this. Well done him for sticking his neck out & criticising this govt.
