If you’ve been using Microsoft Windows for a while you know it’s famous for occasionally “freezing up”.
And unfortunately, when that happens it can be difficult to get the system to respond to your mouse clicks and key presses.
Q&A: Can the Settings app on a Windows PC be disabled?
Question from Kandi: I bought my 9 year old son a new laptop for his birthday. He loves it and uses it every day.
The problem is I have already had to take it to the Geek Squad twice to fix issues he caused by changing some system settings.
I know that’s what he’s doing because I saw him using the Settings app.
Is there a way to disable the Settings app on his computer to prevent that from happening again? I really need to preserve my sanity! [Read more…]
Q&A: Clipboard History has stopped working. How do I fix it?

Q&A: Can Windows 11’s roll-back period be extended past 10 days?
Question from Robbie: A couple of days ago I updated my PC to Windows 11 expecting to have 30 days to change my mind like we had when Windows 10 came out.
But then I found out the window for rolling Windows 11 back to Windows 10 is only 10 days, not 30.
The problem I have is I’m going out of town on business tomorrow and I won’t be back until after the end of the month.
By the time I return the 10 day roll-back period will have expired and I’ll be stuck with Windows 11 even if I end up not liking it.
Is there any way to extend the Windows 11 roll-back period to longer than 10 days (to something like a month)? [Read more…]
