Cannot Completely Disable Password on Wakeup
I have tried every solution everywhere on the internet to make it so windows NEVER asks for my password, and although it is, in theory, NOT supposed to ask for my password anymore, ever, it still does in *one* circumstance. I have changed the settings so it is not to require a password after waking from sleep, and that works in every instance except for when the computer sleeps because I closed the laptop lid. If it goes to sleep just from sitting without being used for a while and I start it up again, it does not ask for a password, even if it’s been days or longer. But if I close the lid and then start it up again even just a moment later, it requires a password. I have stopped it from asking a password after starting from a shutdown or a restart, and I have turned it off after starting from sleep in all other cases, but for some reason, disabling password after wakeup does not work when sleep was because of closing the laptop lid. What am I doing wrong? I’ve tried all the different settings options I could find, then I googled and found another one or two, which fixed the last of my problems, except this one. I do not want to EVER have to enter a password. All I use my Windows laptop for is games that I can’t get on my Mac, because I hate windows, but there are some games I really like that require it. I grew up using Windows, so I’m very familiar with it, and I can generally fix anything with it that crops up without needing to go to anyone for help, but this is one thing I just can’t fix. On Mac, you only have to change one or two things to never have to enter a password again except for major updates or downloads, and all the settings are easy to find. On windows, I have had to change many more things, and I’ve really had to dig for the settings to change, and I am STILL having issues. Can someone PLEASE tell me what I’m missing?

Xbox Gamebar crashing when creating a post.
Hello, I am having multiple issues with windows on this laptop which I never had before. One of those is that whenever I open Xbox Game Bar and try to post in 'Looking for group', the Game Bar just crashes. And it crashes several times even if I try to open it. I tried many ways, repairing and resetting the Game Bar from settings, uninstalling it using a command and re-installing it, which made it work for some time, but it started to crash after 1 to 2 restarts. I hope I can fix this.

I'm interested in streaming on Mixer, questions about mics.
I have a Zoom H6 External voice recorder, along with a Rode NTG2 Shotgun microphone. The Mic attaches to the Zoom H6 with a XLR Microphone. Is it possible I could attach this setup to my Xbox One to use as a streaming microphone? The only output on the zoom H6 is a 3.5mm headphone jack and USB. I can use this setup with my PC and with the USB, to stream over twitch. However, I would prefer to use Mixer in the future.

Do you use the normal start menu or the full screen start?
There are many customisable options in Windows 10, and, one of the best is, you could change the look of your start menu. I use it in full screen, and do turn it on, go to settings>personalisation>start>use start full screen. Now, when you hit or click the Windows icon, you would notice that the Start Menu would pop up in a 'full screen' view, which gives it somewhat a look like Chrome operating system (really?) It isn't much, it's worth trying... Do you prefer the start menu being as it is? Or would you like to make it full screen?
