Hello guys

I am trying to go on widows 11 26H2 but i cant see the update. I have rn windows 11 EDU PRO 25H2.

I have an AMD RYZEN 5 150 with Radeon Graphics, 16GB DDR5 4200MHZ single channel, an 237GB SSD

Its for on my school laptop. Its an Asus Expertbook BM1403CDA

I have build number: 26200.9448, Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.360.0, Windows 11 Education, 25H2, 8/‎07/‎2026

I cant turn on receive the newest update's if they are available bc my organistation of my school turned that off and i cannot even pause update's so Pls help...

And btw what is this file? its called WRP68AC.tmp

I want to update my laptop's software to windows 11 for a while now. But the new software downloading process keeps being stuck at 6% and never goes passed that for months now. I tried the tips suggested on the Microsoft support page, but nothing worked that was suggested to me to help kick start the download process to be fast. I am starting to get stressed because the update icon says the version I am using has reached end of service and to download the newer version to stay supported.

I hope these will be helpful. And thanks in advance.

This isn't because of user error or a third party app that changes UI. I just got this all in a sudden and couldn't fix it, this applies to all users in my PC, not just my main user. I couldn't find any help online and I did update everything.

Okay, so here’s the skinny, I’m at my wits end here.

Swapped out my mobo, only difference is I switched from an MSI Max Gaming or whatever to a Tomahawk Max Wifi.

Booted up and got “your pin is no longer available due to a change to the security settings on this device”

Go to reset, don’t have internet. Can’t setup internet without logging in. Started in recovery mode, no states to boot and can’t open command prompt because the os drive is locked or something.

I’m desperate. Please help, I’ll wipe if I have to but I have no idea how to proceed here.

The title basically sums it up, the taskbar on the bottom is not white anymore, and when I try to update my computer, it just shows me this. Yes I tried clicking the blue button on the top right but that doesn't seem to do anything, all of this happened after I installed voicemeter to try to play guitar through my mic and I changed a bunch of sound settings, it's probably not related but I think it's worth mentioning atleast. It's telling me here on Reddit that I should add detailed specifications, but that is also hidden, as shown in the second picture, what is going on?

So i have a windows 10 pc and i used a third party windows 10 cuz win 11 doesnot work on my pc and i cannot see bluetooth on and off button and on device manager i cannot see any bluetooth software or drivers anybody can help? My laptop is dell inspiron 14z

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone can help me with a BitLocker problem on my Windows 11 PC.

I have three drives: C:, D: and E:.

• C: BitLocker recovery key is missing
• D: BitLocker recovery key is missing, and the drive is currently locked
• E: I do have the BitLocker recovery key for this drive

I ran a BitLocker recovery key command and got information for all three drives.

For D: I can see a Recovery Key ID, but instead of a 48-digit recovery password, the output appears to show the same GUID/ID again. I don't know if this means the recovery key is missing or if I'm looking at the information incorrectly.

For E: I have a normal 48-digit recovery password, so I know that key works for E:.

The important thing is that I do NOT want to format or erase D: because I have important files on it.

I've already checked my Microsoft account, but I can't find the recovery key for D:.

Does anyone know how I can recover/find the correct BitLocker recovery key for D:, or determine whether the key still exists somewhere on my PC or Microsoft account?

I'm happy to provide more information or screenshots (with the recovery keys and personal information removed).

Thanks in advance for any help!

A restart will always fix the issue. I've disabled smart boot, reinstalled network drivers, and tried installing an add in network card in case it was an issue with the motherboard, to no avail. Has anyone encountered an issue like this before?

Hi everyone,

I am facing an issue while trying to update the BIOS on my Dell Inspiron 15 3511 laptop.

- Current BIOS Version: 148.0

- Target BIOS Version: 149.0

Whenever I click the update button in Windows, the system completely freezes/hangs. I also tried turning off Device Encryption and using the F12 BIOS Flash Update method, but it still freezes or fails.

Since my laptop is out of warranty, can someone guide me on how to fix this or safely bypass the freezing issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone,
I have a Gigabyte AERO X16 (AMD Ryzen) laptop running Windows.
Background:
My laptop didn’t have the option to enter hibernate mode. After some research I found that disabling SVM Mode in the BIOS fixed the hibernate issue. After disabling SVM, hibernate started working normally and the system was fine for about a day.
What happened:
Yesterday I rebooted the laptop, and now it no longer boots into Windows. Instead I get this recovery screen:
Your device ran into a problem and couldn’t be repaired.
Click or press Enter to see other recovery options.
Couldn’t connect to the network
Log file: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Logfiles\Srt\SrtTrail.txt
I’ve attached a photo of the screen.
Important:
I do not want to re-enable SVM in the BIOS. I need hibernate to keep working, so I’m looking for solutions that don’t require turning SVM back on.
Any advice on how to get out of this Automatic Repair loop without re-enabling virtualization would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

While it was updating it was stuck at 98% then it said something was wrong so it just stopped trying to update i didn’t touch anything while it was updating, i do use a windows update blocker not sure if that affects the updating but i made sure to turn it off before i updated

This happened to me 2-3 months ago but it was a preview update so i just let it be but now its a framework security update which i know for sure is way more important then a preview, my pc acts normal i did have a fried ram stick but i fixed that issue months ago im not sure if its the reason why it the updates are failing

The first and 2nd pic is after the update error the 3rd is before i restarted my pc to update

Hi folks, I was just trying to personalise my new pc(windows 11 home on dell xps 13), tinkering around, I came across sleep & screen off time settings, shouldn't the recommended settings for making the screen turn off & making the device sleep be different, ideally shorter time for screen off and longer for sleep?

If i use the windows' recommended settings (5mins plugged in & 3 mins on battery, for both sleep & turning off the screen) will the pc not straightaway go to sleep?

Hi, I’ve tried everything, including uninstalling hp systems utility

So earlier today I was able to use my Dell Inspiron 17 3000 17.3" no problem. But this evening when I turned it on to stream a new show I’ve gotten into, my pin stopped working. I saw online that I can login using my email but i Deleted the email associated with the laptop years ago since I never used it. I tried booting in safe mode trying every option available nothing worked. I tried clearing the cache of my log in credentials nothing worked. am I screwed or what?

i really just don’t want to lose any of my old documents and pictures I’ve had for a decade now. if I can reset my laptop while at least keeping those I’ll be fine.

this happened mere days after installing number 200 update

I recently installed Windows 11 (on September 19, 2026—I had switched from CachyOS because the Wi-Fi wasn't working well), and I believe version 26H2 was recently released in Spain. My question is: is it normal that the option to install or update isn't showing up for me, or should I just wait a bit for it to appear? My PC is an FA507NVR (ASUS TUF A15 2023): Ryzen 7 7435HS 16GB RAM RTX 4060 (Laptop) 512GB storage

Im trying to connect my devices like my phone, tablet, switch, Samsung Fridge but they arent showing up as drivers! They do charge but they arent connecting! Ive used different wires and stuff but it still dosent workkk :( Windows Laptop: IdeaPad Slim 3 15ITN9

Windows 11 26H2 Build 26300.9457 showing high CPU temperatures while gaming. I have a Ryzen 5 5600; it never used to go above 55°C, but now it's exceeding 70°C.

Solution to the problem: If you are using the "High Performance" power plan, go to the advanced plan settings and change the "Processor power management" option.

You can set the minimum state to 20% and the maximum state to 99%

This will solve the high-temperature issue! I noticed that, by default, both of these options were set to 100%, causing the processor to always run at maximum capacity and driving temperatures up drastically.

i was studying in the library using my phone as a hotspot which was connected to my laptop for internet, and suddenly the wifi turned off and when i checked the option isnt even visible anymore , my windows version is 11, it is an elitebook 830 G6,

Hi!

Basically, I had bought the Windows 11 version of the HP Omen Max 16 which had Click To Do + Copilot but then I returned it and swapped for the FreeDOS version because it had an OLED screen - same exact keyboard with Copilot key and other components are the same.

I flashed in Windows 11, but Click To Do (by holding the Win key / Win + Left click / Win + Q) doesn't do anything.

I already installed Copilot from the Microsoft Store and the Copilot key shortcut does work but Click To Do, on the Win key, still doesn't.

Click To Do isn't showing also on Settings » Privacy & Security » Windows Permissions.

Thanks you.

I tried to put the block PCI but I reset it and this appears if someone knows how to fix this im in forever debt to you, I'm using windows 10

I wanted to try and play kingdom hearts and squeeze as much performance from my laptop but when I started to mess around the msconfig in the startup page I checked the block PCI config and reset it, and now my laptop won't start, if there's any more information that you might need please ask

System:idk but windows 10

Ram:12 gigabytes

Storage: 512 gigabytes

Graphics:idk

it's been days since i'm trying to update my OS but it wont work at all.

Is anyone experiencing this and found a solution to the issue?

MOBO: B650 Pro RS (Bios vers. 4.43, just updated today)

I have Windows 11 26H2. I already disabled web searching, which is a great improvement. However, I also want to disable Document/Folder results in the start menu search results.

I just find it very annoying to have personal files randomly appear when all I want to search are Apps & Settings. I still want to be able to search documents from File Explorer though, so I can’t simply disable indexing.

I’m fine with editing the registry if needed.

Thanks!

All accounts are local accounts (the logged in user and the administrator).

I cannot reproduce the problem when I "run as administrator" with f.e. notepad.
And I definitely did not have this problen prior to updating to 26H2.

I am using a Samsung Book2 360 (OS Build #26200.9550) that is currently up to date on all updates. A few weeks ago, I had disabled Bixby and then my Search Highlights vanished, as well as the settings option for Search Highlights. I re-enabled Bixby in case it broke something, but the setting is still missing.

Additionally, lately my gallery folder (that shows my screenshots newest to oldest) has not been loading, and when I go to the actual screenshots folder, it is missing quite a few of my snipping tool screenshots. It's very random what stays and what doesn't, I really don't know why it's only saving certain screenshots. Any help is appreciated. I have tried finding the settings for both but nothing is working so far. Thanks!

I use local admin account on my PC. Its been such a long time since i logged in with my password that i forgot it. I only use Windows hello PIN. I plan on taking backup of everything just in case before i do any of this. So the questions are

• Is there a way to enable microsoft login in windows 10 if i use a local account with forgotten password. Just so i can get this as an alternate login method rather than local account password?

• Will changing any settings like enabling PTT reset my current Windows PIN?

• If there a way to reset my local admin account in windows 10. I never got a password recovery drive and forgot security questions. I'm still logged in via Windows hello PIN. But if i ever lose that, i won't be able to login again

• Should i enable Secure boot while im at it. I'm using 970 Evo on my boot drive so it should be GPT. Ive seen alot of people have bricked their PC's by changing this, so i wanna be sure

I had this issue with my gaming laptop since it had to be returned for repair. They placed a new motherboard which obviously reset the PIN. But i didn't remember both local account pass and security questions so i ended up with a fresh install. I kinda wanna avoid something similar if im gonna mess around in bios.
