    Question Windows 11 Not Fully Going Into Hibernate (Semi-Shuts Down, But Fans In Tower Keep Running)

    Like the title says, my PC semi-shuts off, but not fully. When I push the button on my tower to trigger hibernate, it initially acts like it's going to hibernate. Everything starts to close out, the monitor screens black out as expected, the LED lights on my tower shut off, but then for some...

    Question Windows 11 - Can't Change The Order Of Taskbar Icons (And No "Lock Taskbar" option in right-click, nor in the taskbar personalization settings)

    Well aware that most people don't have issues with it. We're well past that point, lol Anyway, the Windows 11 self-checker (like sfc) is pretty much worthless. It doesn't detect any issues at all, and other built-in self-checkers fail miserably at detecting any problems too. Windows really...

    Omg, this actually works!!! Finally, something that works!!! Phil, you are amazing. Thank you so much for posting this. Now, I can finally get things organized and consistent with my laptop. I appreciate this more than words can describe. I use my PC for college, work, leisure, video...

    Question Lights Turned Off On "Lian Li LANCOOL 216 RGB ATX" Case? Where Are Settings On Windows 11 PC?

    Thanks for the info. Like I stated in my previous message, it's fixed, the L connect software took care of it fortunately. And I think my issue was similar to what you said about your mobo - I think whatever software my mobo was using to control it decided to just die out on me. Reboots did...

    Question AMD Question: Any Advantage To Turning On "AMD User Experience Program" For "AMD Software: Adrenaline Edition"?

    You have a very good point in your third paragraph there, and I agree with everything you said. I had a feeling they just stated it that way to make it appear like it was a direct benefit to you, when in reality, it's just for updates that could pertain to any of your particular games, etc...

    Question Lights Turned Off On "Lian Li LANCOOL 216 RGB ATX" Case? Where Are Settings On Windows 11 PC?

    Thanks for the info, it worked! Installed L connect 3, it asked to restart, I restarted, all the lights came on like usual. Thank you! I guess it must've been the mobo that I was controlling it with that last time. Shortly after I installed the OS, I found that setting somewhere, messed with...

    Question AMD Question: Any Advantage To Turning On "AMD User Experience Program" For "AMD Software: Adrenaline Edition"?

    I have always thought all these UED options do is allow companies to collect data from your PC to improve their products, but offers you no tangible benefit yourself at all (in fact, a disadvantage since it can use computer resources). But from what I'm seeing on the website...

    Question Lights Turned Off On "Lian Li LANCOOL 216 RGB ATX" Case? Where Are Settings On Windows 11 PC?

    So, I just built this rig about 8-9mos ago or so. The lights have already seemed to crap out on my computer case. All of them went at the same time. Again, it's a Lian Li LANCOOL 216 RGB ATX case. I don't know how to troubleshoot something like this, as I've never had to in the past. I know...

    Question Windows 11 - Can't Change The Order Of Taskbar Icons (And No "Lock Taskbar" option in right-click, nor in the taskbar personalization settings)

    Well, forget that last post. The POS OS locked them all up again. Can't move any of them anymore, no matter how I change the settings. I absolutely hate Windows 11, hate Microsoft, and I'm going to start migrating away from their crap

    How To iPhone - Stop Transferring .AAE Files When Transferring Pics/Vids To PC (Windows 11)?

    Title says it all. Just wondering if there's some kind of setting or other way to stop transferring those .aae files to my PC when transferring images from the phone to the PC? It's annoying, because for some reason, I get a TON of them at times, even if the images weren't edited by me at all...

    How To iPhone Keeps Asking "Trust This Device" For My PC Every Time I Connect. Any Fix?

    The title pretty much explains it all. Nearly every single time I connect my iPhone to my PC (or laptop), it ask me if I want to "trust this device." It's so annoying, of course I do, it's my PC!!! No matter how many times I tell it to "trust this device," it just asks again five minutes...

    Question Windows 11 - Can't Change The Order Of Taskbar Icons (And No "Lock Taskbar" option in right-click, nor in the taskbar personalization settings)

    Yes, it is 24H2. Ever since I "upgraded" to Windows 11, I've had multiple issues though, even before this version. Most I've fixed or worked around already, but this one just wouldn't go away. At least I have it working enough to where I can mess with settings and get them where I want them...

    Question Windows 11 - Can't Change The Order Of Taskbar Icons (And No "Lock Taskbar" option in right-click, nor in the taskbar personalization settings)

    Well, I gave this a shot, and it helped some!!! It's odd though, as it works, but not entirely. So, I attached a screenshot below. It's being weird. If I choose the "never" options for the combine taskbar buttons, I can move *some* of the icons, but ONLY when I have that specific...

    Question Windows 11 - Can't Change The Order Of Taskbar Icons (And No "Lock Taskbar" option in right-click, nor in the taskbar personalization settings)

    Thank you. I don't have time tonight, but sometime later this week I'm going to give that a shot To clarify, it won't let me change the order of them at all. I can pin icons onto the taskbar, but once I do, wherever they are in the order, that's it. I can't move any of them at all anywhere...
