Windows 11 Task Manager is preventing the Safely Remove Hardware feature Ghacks.net Oct 23, 2022 in Windows 11 News..... The latest version of Windows 11 has a bug that may prevent the safe removal of hardware from the device. Users of Windows 11 who activate the operating system's Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media feature from the system tray, to remove USB devices and other devices connected to the system safely, may notice that this is no longer possible if the Task Manager application is open. Windows 11 displays the message "Problem Ejecting USB Mass Storage Device", stating that the device can't be stopped by the operating system because of another program that is still using it. That program, at least in this case, is the operating system's Task Manager. @Reciever any plans to get a facepalm reaction smiley? i think that would be helpful in such situations! 😄 1 1 Mine: Hyperion "Titan God of Heat, Heavenly Light, Power" (2022-24) AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (TG High Perf.

Microsoft fixes Windows vulnerable driver blocklist sync issue bleepingcomputer.com Disabling the driver blocklist Microsoft also says that starting with the Windows 11 2022 update (version 22H2), the blocklist is enabled by default on all devices. "Blocking drivers can cause devices or software to malfunction. In rare cases, it leads to a stop error," Microsoft warned on Tuesday. "There is no guarantee that the blocklist will block every driver that has weaknesses." For Windows 10 and Windows 11 21H2, you can disable the driver blocklist by turning off 'Memory Integrity' in the 'Core Isolation' settings, or if using Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC), disabling it in your configuration. However, as the driver blocklist is enabled by default in Windows 11 22H2, even when Memory Integrity is disabled, it's unclear how to disable the blocklist in the latest version of the operating system. 1 "The Killer" ASUS ROG Z790 Apex Encore | 14900KS | 4090 HOF + 20 other graphics cards | 32GB DDR5 | Be Quiet!

I'm not sure where they are on market share, but seems like they don't worry about giving people reasons to avoid Windows. It is pretty fascinating how Microsoft can make a decent OS with LTSC and then fail completely in the "consumer space". It's like it's way too much features for them to manage properly in Windows 11 and it feels like they are changing things for the sake of change (another postmodern issue since there are a lot of things that work perfectly fine as is and does what it says on the tin). Still, Windows 11 feels like a wonder compared to another operating system that really trigger me: Android. I read about their new "darling" Android 13 Go Edition. The operating system that is a dysfunctional toy in 2022 in its "full" version, i.e. far less features, way more artificial restrictions paired with higher hardware requirements than Lollipop and it does receive a "stripped down" (even more dysfunctional) sibling called "Go Edition" that's a pathetic piece of trash running on hardware that would have been able to run LP not to say KitKat without any problems, with full feature set. When I see this load of trash that Google releases without shame I think I would give Microsoft a little bit of "leeway" by saying that Windows 11 is like a polished diamond, albeit with some flaws in comparison. I had an experience with Android 12 recently and it really made me love Windows 11. Edit: Regarding the file copy bug... It's certainly a nasty issue but is like perfection compared to an innovative little feature Google created: "Scoped Storage". We are now talking atrocious performance for file operations... Buying fast memory cards for devices with this nice little innovation is really a waste of money. Sometimes, it is necessary to point out that even with the worst of the worst Windows 11 flaws, there's another operating system out there that should receive the most bashing of all: Android. Microsoft did a lot of dumb decisions regarding Windows post-7 when Windows 8 came out but they didn't degrade the system to anywhere near the level Google reached with Android 9 Pie and then further degraded on. I will become a Windows basher the day Microsoft manage to make a version that offer horrible disk performance and file management "because it is too complicated and confusing for people to use more than one storage device". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Fox Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 As long as I can deprive them of the ability to extract the funds they crave, while simultaneously eliminating the opportunity for me to be burdened or inconvenienced by their filth and exempting myself from being part of their process, I am fine with the lowest common denominators being tolerant of the stupidity. As they say, "Birds of a feather..." But, it is very true that we should not underestimate the power of stupid people that ban together to advance a stupid cause. It is scary how much power they have over people who are not stupid, but seriously outnumbered. 1 3 WRAITH // Z790 Apex | 14900KS | 4090 Suprim X+Byksi Block | 48GB DDR5-8600 | Toughpower 1650W | MO-RA3 360 | Hailea HC-500A || O11D XL EVO (T-Rex) BANSHEE // X870E Carbon | 9950X | 4090 Gaming OC+Alphacool Block | 32GB DDR5-8200 | RM1200x SHIFT | XT45 1080 Nova || Antec C8 (Rhinoceros) SPECTRE // Z790i Edge | 13900KS | 3090 Ti FTW3 | 48GB DDR5-8200 | RM1000e | EK Nucleus CR360 Direct Die || Prime A21 (Rattlesnake) HALF-BREED // Precision 7720 | BGA CPU Filth | 32GB DDR4 | Quadro P5000 | 4K Display | Nothing to Write Home About (Turdbook) Mr. Fox YouTube Channel | Mr. Fox @ HWBOT The average response time for a 911 call is 10 minutes.

It's just that most people see no choice but to hand over their privacy in exchange for access to what they find to be essential services.... Cost of Goods Sold $363, retail $1500... Samsung is a brand in this particular department. I am not into fashion or fashion items and for cameras I really prefer a standalone one even if I use a smartphone camera sometimes. The pricing has nothing to do with technology or features but have more "sinister" motives (ignorance is a key driver here) so I am so happy to let the kids play with their "fashion items" as long as they don't ask me to help them out. My annoyance goes way up when people want assistance with their smartphone issues (issues that tend to be related to dumb downs). The "fashion item" design also cause my eyes to bleed out since I find 2022 smartphones to be downright ugly. The ads I have seen in different apps and in social media apps including YouTube. Intrusive ads on a $1500+ device. I gave the "best device" Samsung Galaxy S 22 Ultra a shot a few months ago. It drove me insane and I wouldn't ever consider something like that and if that's the "best" smartphone of 2022, I am happy to stay away from the product category in general. So I just can't stand the design, the system, the users (those users who defend the low standards), the anti-root community (i.e. those users who actively argue against root), SafetyNet/Play Integrity, hardware in general (atrocious), features or all those "best camera" arguments. There's just nothing I like about 2022 smartphones and I don't see anything about them that would make me positive; my negative feelings just grow bigger every time I see them in action or being asked about them. One of my biggest annoyances is people asking me if "device X" of 2022 is any good. My reply is always: "No" followed by "It is trash like any other 2022 smartphone". Edit: What really offend me is smartphones with 16GB RAM and 1TB of storage when they are running a totally dysfunctional, dumbed down operating system and all they can run is "apps". It is really like "hardware for kids who brag about specifications". 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not totally against ads but when a device is $1500+ (even $1000+ is too much for Android 12/13/iOS) and is seriously locked down feature wise and it send out a lot of ads while the hardware inside is a $363 Cost of Goods Sold affair, it surely is a problem. If that device did run a proper operating system, had the ability to dock to desktop and could run such applications - i.e. being a more evolved version of what Nokia did in 2009 with the N900 (Maemo was essentially full Debian Linux) and had proper hardware including user-replaceable battery and expandable storage et al, I wouldn't mind a $1500 price tag since such a product could be a full-blown computer. I do mind those price tags, however, when we are talking about 2022 smartphones, which are dumbed down terminals, almost feature phone like (Scoped Storage et al does remind me of old Java phones) and the users defending their dumb devices with insane prices (far above what they are worth from a technical standpoint since the hardware inside is pretty much atrocious and those parts that are OK in a technological sense doesn't matter since they are obliterated by the shitty software - it doesn't matter with a fast CPU and 16GB RAM when we are talking toys). The only time I accept to pay more is when there is technological reason to do so and that's not what a 2022 smartphone or even a pair of Beats headphones can provide. 1 hour ago, Mr. Fox said: I am an advocate and supporter of companies that make products (generally software) that block or defeat the ability to receive financial support from advertisements and data collection.

Please help me fix it so I can get rid of it." More often than not, I just tell them that I hope they learned a lesson and what they are asking me to fix is an example of why I told them to buy something else. I tell them they will need to pay someone a stupid amount of money to fix their mess because don't have time or the desire to fix it for them. 1 WRAITH // Z790 Apex | 14900KS | 4090 Suprim X+Byksi Block | 48GB DDR5-8600 | Toughpower 1650W | MO-RA3 360 | Hailea HC-500A || O11D XL EVO (T-Rex) BANSHEE // X870E Carbon | 9950X | 4090 Gaming OC+Alphacool Block | 32GB DDR5-8200 | RM1200x SHIFT | XT45 1080 Nova || Antec C8 (Rhinoceros) SPECTRE // Z790i Edge | 13900KS | 3090 Ti FTW3 | 48GB DDR5-8200 | RM1000e | EK Nucleus CR360 Direct Die || Prime A21 (Rattlesnake) HALF-BREED // Precision 7720 | BGA CPU Filth | 32GB DDR4 | Quadro P5000 | 4K Display | Nothing to Write Home About (Turdbook) Mr. Fox YouTube Channel | Mr. Fox @ HWBOT The average response time for a 911 call is 10 minutes.

Thanks :) BTW is it just me or is it very difficult not to using the standard interface if replying to posts across more than one page?

Do you want new features like this also added in Win 10 or Win 10 LTSC? @Mr. Fox @Ashtrix maybe it's about time jump on the latest and greatest from Redmond? People ask for more features... And Microsoft will offer it in loads. Microsoft is bringing more ads to Windows 11 Mayank Parmar - November 8, 2022 0 Windows 11 could get more advertisements and popups, according to new features spotted in the preview builds. While the new ads that we're seeing are currently in testing for the operation system, it’s likely that the ads will eventually start appearing on the production builds. Im curious what kind of hell Windows 12 will bring since this is the path they continue to follow and not learning from their mistakes 1 Current Laptop: Lenovo Legion 5: AMD Ryzen 7 4800H 2.8Ghz (Boost: 4.2Ghz), 6GB Nvidia Geforce GTX 1660Ti GDDR6 Memory, 15.6" FHD (1920 x 1080) 144Hz IPS display, 32GB 3200MHz DDR4 memory, 512GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD, 1 TB Teamgroup MP34 M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD, Windows 10 Home 22H2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steerpike Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 4 hours ago, GeekBear80 said: I am not totally against ads but when a device is $1500+ (even $1000+ is too much for Android 12/13/iOS) and is seriously locked down feature wise and it send out a lot of ads while the hardware inside is a $363 Cost of Goods Sold affair, it surely is a problem. ... Surely it's not reasonable to blame the OS (Android) or the hardware vendor (eg, Samsung) for ads being displayed in a browser, or in the YouTube App? The OS is the platform that enables the browser, and the browser is the app that displays 'content'. The ads are inserted into the content stream by a variety of entities (content provider, 3rd party ad brokers, YouTube, etc) but those ads are surely NOT coming from Android? You are railing against Android 12/13, but would you not see those very same ads if you fired up your old phone that still has Android 4, and displayed the same YouTube video on THAT phone? Or if you fired up a Windows 7 box and used it to display YouTube, or even a linux box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
