I have an issue that occurs very sporadically on my self-built Windows 11 computer. I can hear the windows "ping", and OS seems to be loading like normal but there is no image on the monitor - only a neutral grey. Ctrl+Alt+Del gives me a black screen, but nothing more. If I press escape I'm back to the grey screen. Sometimes the grey color is more of a windows-blue. The only thing I can do is hold the power-button down to force the computer to shut down. When I reboot I'm unable to get into the bios, the post-screen is not showing, and the windows loading-circle is not displaying. Then it is back to the grey/black screen. Win+Ctrl+Shift+B gives me a "ping" and the screen flashing grey and black, but no more. My solution is to force the computer off several times until the windows repair-tool starts, and then it can finally boot into windows again. The computer is very stable otherwise, both during normal office use, gaming and other tasks. Event Viewer and Reliability Monitor shows the same critical event every time, and I have no other critical events in the logs. It reads "Windows was not properly shut down", with the following details: Kernel-Power, Event ID 41. My setup: Windows 11 IoT LTSC ASUS ProArt X870e Creators WiFi Seasonic 860W Platinum AMD Ryzen 7 98000x3D Asus GeForce GTX 4070 Super OC 12GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000Mhz 64GB Samsung 990 Pro M.2 2TB SSD I would really appreciate any help on solving this frustrating issue.17Views0likes0CommentsComputer screen sometimes won't start up again after sleep
Sometimes, after I close the lid or let it go to sleep, when I try to start it back up again, the screen doesn't turn on. The machine seems to be on, as I can hear the fans running and the keyboard lights are on, but the screen remains dark. I've tried pressing the power button, the Windows key, and even holding down the shift key while pressing the power button, but nothing seems to work. The only way I can get it to come back on is by unplugging the power cord and plugging it back in. I need everyone's help ASAP. Thank you.5.2KViews0likes3CommentsTake these steps to enable your Firstline Workers today

Hi all, I heard a lot of possible feedback about Windows 11 and want to upgrade my Windows 10 PC and laptops to Windows 11. Currently, I don't know how to do that. The PC has a decent set of hardware, including Intel 12 Gen CPU, 16 GB DDR4 RAM, and1T SSD. How can fresh windows 11 install without losing data that without losing data? I heard clean installing from USB drive will delete all user data, apps and system settings. I won't do that as I want to keep my personal files.3.5KViews0likes9CommentsAnnouncing the support for modern public folder migrations without dumpster data
Long time Exchange administrators will remember that Exchange Server had a feature that was for a while unceremoniously referred to as the “dumpster”. We have since renamed the feature to a more descriptive Recoverable Items Folder. This blog post also contains a bit of history of this feature for those interested. Up to now, during public folder migration, all the public folder data including dumpsters was migrated from on-premises servers to the cloud. Administrators did not have an option to exclude this data at migration. We are introducing the ability to migrate public folders to cloud without migrating the dumpster data. To do this, administrators need to pass the ExcludeDumpsters parameter while creating the migration batch. This option can be used when source server version is Exchange 2013 or 2016. Here is an example of how to use this parameter: New-MigrationBatch -Name PublicFolderMigration -CSVData $bytes -SourceEndpoint $PfEndpoint.Identity -ExcludeDumpsters Note: Please do not use -ExcludeDumpster parameter if you expect users or admins to restore deleted public folders during the migration. The migration batch will fail with error “ErrorFoldersRestoredDuringMigrationPermanentException” if users/admins restore deleted public folder while migration is still in progress. See this article for more information. Why would you want to do this? Excluding this data can help you scale your public folder migration if you do not need the data to come over. This will result in faster public folder migration as the amount of data that will need to be migrated is going to be smaller. To check the dumpster folders size, you can run the following: Get-PublicFolder \NON_IPM_SUBTREE\DUMPSTER_ROOT -Recurse -ResultSize:unlimited | ?{$_.FolderClass -ne "$null"} | ft name,foldersize In addition to size consideration, we have seen some organizations where dumpster data got corrupted (for various reasons) and administrators did not want that corrupted data migrated to cloud. If you find yourself in that situation, this feature will enable you to leave that data behind. The obvious drawback to doing this is that users will lose the ability to recover items that were previous deleted from public folders (pre-migration). Note: The ExcludeDumpsters parameter is optional and if not passed to migration batch, all dumpsters will migrate to cloud. Once you choose to exclude dumpsters and the migration is finalized, there is no way to go back and re-include the dumpsters into cloud public folders. If, during the migration in which you used the ExcludeDumpsters parameter, you decide that you do want to migrate the dumpsters data to the cloud, remove the current migration batch and create another without the ExcludeDumpsters parameter. This option can be added at point 4 of Step 7 in below TechNet articles for public folder migration (we will work to change the documentation next): Use batch migration to migrate Exchange 2013 public folders to Exchange Online Use batch migration to migrate Exchange 2016 public folders to Exchange Online Keep checking this blog for further updates on the subject!

Hello. I have a computer with Windows 7 on it, which had an administrator password on it but I removed it and then installed some programs, then I went into the bios and it was set to ATA in the bios but I tried to set it to AHCI and it wouldn't boot into Windows after that, it kept giving me a blue screen, then the option to start Windows normally or "launch startup repair" and I gave it "launch startup repair", but that didn't work either, I think it tried to repair it but I don't think it succeeded, then I went into the bios again and changed from AHCI to ATA and it let me enter Windows on a new restart, but now Windows asked me for the administrator password again even though I removed it and all the programs I installed disappeared, as if they weren't there or I didn't install them, it was practically from scratch, how do you explain this? What actually happened? Why did my installed programs disappear or how did they end up being deleted? Why is it asking me for the same administrator password again if I removed it before this error, before changing those things in the bios, from ATA to AHCI? How do I return to the initial state again? Or at least see what was deleted? Or how can I see what programs I had installed before? Or how can I recover my data, what disappeared? Or that I lost or were deleted after this incident? Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad english!20Views0likes0Comments
