Safe mode is not possible now
Currently with pin code login there is no possibility to login in safe mode. I've tried plain safe mode, safe mode with network support and nothing works. The only thing works now - activation of local administration account, login with it in safe mode and deactivation it after that. That's not what I want to do all the time I want to go to the safe mode.

How to fix this image?
Ok so I have this image (1536x2048) however some details, like bright red dots on dark red blend or light green on dark green blend in with each other. I know this is happening because in smaller versions of this image it doesn't do that. Also some parts are high quality and some parts are slightly blurry. What is this called and how do I fix it?

Hide Taskbar activated -- Does not show automatically when new programme and window is launched
Hi,My taskbar shows and hides as it should (Hide taskbar automaticaly is activated), almost ...

File Explorer window will not come up to front when selected from taskbar
I have this weird problem with Windows File Explorer: sometimes when I try to bring up a File Explorer window from the taskbar, I click on it and it doesn't come up to the front of the display; instead it's somewhere in the back and I have to minimize or close windows until I find it (or just close it and start a new File Explorer window and navigate to the folder I want). When this happens, it seems to be when I have multiple File Explorer windows open and thus have to pick one from the taskbar. Any idea what is causing this?

Need to move unallocated space on D drive to C drive
My C drive is full. I tried to add space from D drive, but ended up with a large section of "unallocated space" between the C and D drives instead. I think I now understand that the partition between C and D is what's preventing me from the quick fix that I was looking for, but I don't know what to do next. Can you help me fix this issue and move the unallocated space to the C drive? (My computer knowledge is pretty basic, but I can follow step-by-step directions if you can provide them.)isk management

Recovery Drive will not allow me to use a USB to make a back up. It keeps asking me for a USB to be inserted even when one is in.
I used the media restore and it fixed the problem for one USB to do the back up but now it won't accept any USB and I've done the media restore twice with no luck. If I can't use this program how can I use the backup in the cloud storage if my computer won't boot?** Moved from Teams to Windows **

Download folder mysteriously deleted files
After leaving my computer idle but running for a couple of hours, I find a lot of files from my download folder to be gone upon return. Edge (Version 135.0.3179.85) still lists the names of the files in the Downloads menu, but classifies them as "removed". This happened to all files in that folder from roughly the past two months with the following exceptions: Some (the only) .zip-files in that folder and one .pdf that I once saved annotations in. Beyond that, files older than roughly two months were left untouched. The deleted files do not appear in the Recycle Bin (and the Recycle Bin does n

Unable to import photos from phone to location other than OneDrive
My previous post has not received any response beyond the initial response and one follow up post. I paused syncing in OneDrive but I can only import pictures from my phone (iPhone) to OneDrive.

Is there a way to change audio devices used on calls in Phone Link?
I have a headset (with mic) which is set as the default speaker and microphone for communications, and I also have some desktop speakers and a standalone microphone which are always plugged in.By default, Phone Link is using the desktop speakers and the standalone microphone, and doesn't appear to have any options to actually change which audio devices are being used on calls, neither from the settings tab nor from within the call window.Defaulting to these two devices may be a weird Microsoft thing because Teams calls in Edge do exactly the same thing (not a concern though, I can change devic
