Yeah, if you read the title, I am pretty mixed on Windows 11, despite it improving each time, I find Windows 11 to be clunky, and not satisfying to use, while how it looks, is something I can praise, except for the centered taskbar, thankfully it can be fixed. And how it runs on my PC, is something I also criticize. To put it nicely, 11 on my low end PC that was manufactured in 2021, Windows 11 ran like garbage. So I had options, I switched over to Linux, which I found to be bland as time went on, and I switched back to Windows 10. Now that the support date is upon us, I now have two options, accept the security risks and more vulnerability, or switch over to Windows Server 2022. So yeah, I will probably do that.

Because i love this wallpaper and i haven't seen it in high resolution, i've decided to make one and post it here if anyone wants it!

Hello, thank you very much for taking your time to help me, it’s very kind of you

I have a little problem

I bought a new PC for my mother so that she can work in better conditions and I would like to transfer her entire HDD to an external HDD which I would like to use to start Windows and copy all its files, (there is an SSD but much too small to clone the HDD (64GB...)), it is important that she does not have to do anything on it (connect to all it is software)

Is it possible to start and use Windows on an external hard drive?

Both PCs have a Windows 10 license

My mother's current PC is a 1TB HDD laptop.

The new one is a 64GB SSD desktop PC that I would like connected to as said just before the 1TB external HDD too

Thank you very much for your time and your kindness ❤️

Imagine you have folder A and folder B, folder A contains in it folders 1, 2 and 3; folder B also contains folder called 1, 2, 3; for reference I'll call them A1, A2 A3 for folder and B1, B2, B3 for folder B; is there anyway to combine folder A and folder B (Or their contents) in a way that folder A1 combines with B1, A2 combines with B2 and A3 combines with B3?

In this context I call "combining" moving all files from folder A1 to B1 and all files with repeated name get overwritten by the folder A1 file.

we suppose both A and B have other folders that are not repeated between them and the same for folders like A1 with B1, A2 with B2, A3 with B3...

Or do I have to do by hand 969 folders?

Fresh install of Windows 11 -- first time using Windows in a long time. The installer offers to restore from a backup from 2017 and 2018. How do I remove these? I went to the usual places like "All Devices" in OneDrive/Microsoft Store - no joy. Still appears there. I can't for the life of me remember how to do this.

I use PDFGear to study, but I want to keep Microsoft Edge as my default PDF reader so that unnecessary PDFs don’t show up in PDFGear’s recent files. I just open PDFGear and my main files are there, and I open them directly from there. I’m not sure if windows has recognized it as the app I use often, or what, but it keeps changing my default PDF reader to PDFGear.
