This community should have a feature to upload images
Hi, even Microsoft Community has a feature to upload images to the post or answer. Don't take mo wrong, I like this community, but as I had read most of the conversations, they seemed to have doubts which they cannot clarify by words. Would be great if you could add the image feature soon!
Submit a file for malware analysis - File failed to upload
Hello everyone, I am not sure if this problem is just with me or anyone else encounter this. I am trying to upload an installer file for review because the installer exe is incorrectly flagged as unrecognized by Windows SmartScreen. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/filesubmission The installer is packaged in zip. File size is 52MB. File upload limit, as stated is 500MB. After filling all the detail and click submit. The file being uploaded pops up but after it is almost done, it returns an error. "File upload failed - please try again." I have tried every browsers that I have, Edge, Chrome, Firefox, IE. I tried on Windows and Mac. I tried everyday in the last few days. Does this happen to anyone? Thanks. Tuan
Limit the Jump List or Recent List
My recent' s list looks like my mothers monthly grocery shopping list in it's length. How can I limit this without hacking into the registry? I seem to remember a way to this in I.E/Windows 7 but I could be wrong. Thanks
why is it so hard to get service support from microsoft
Many microsoft products are not intutitive, yet the service is non existent, or it sucks. Why? Just like this experience now. IT goes nowhere and is a waste of time.
How do I discover and remove malware when the OS can not?
If the operating system doesn't detect and remove the root kit how do I remove it from the system? Please post a walkthrough on how to detect and remove malware using command prompt or an external drive. Why does my administrator require "elevation" in command prompt? How do I patch a system after removing a root kit? I do not want to format my hard drive, how do I know my media tool isn't infected? How do I know someone isn't connected remotely to my windows or iOS?
Parental controls and Microsoft Spying
Why does Microsoft make you sign into an account in order to use parental controls in Windows? Why not just have the parent be able to control the computer by NOT allowing changes to the Hosts file (which a 12 year old can easily figure out)? Why isn't there a way to set yourself up as an Admin and PREVENT your kid from changing it by simply resetting the BIOS or some other method? I think it is because Microsoft makes money when the kid is on-line gaming, etc. Thus, there is no real incentive other than to make the parent set up a Microsoft account so that Windows can collect "basic" data and sell it.
Why did Microsoft made two versions of Pashto Language?
Hello, I am Nasratullah Faqiri, a user of Microsoft windows 10 from Kabul, Afghanistan and I am a part of the Pashto language & literature community. Nowadays, there is a hot topic and mini protest all over social media specially facebook groups where our people criticised Microsoft for making two versions of the Pashto Language, one for Afghanistan and another for Pakistan. while there is absolutely no difference in the orthography and letters between the two country's Pashto speaking community, still experiencing such problem could lead into bigger misunderstandings. Alongside some political issues that both governments has over the Durand border (where Afghanistan has absolute claim over all of Pakistan Pashto speaking areas), there are more ethical reasons for Microsoft to reconsider their decision. To conclude, While Pashto is one of the national and official languages of Afghanistan, there are some screenshots being shared in the communities that some users even criticised and mocked that even after adding Pakistan's version of Pashto language, they only could access the Afghan version of Pashto Keyboard and Arabic Keyboard, which basically means that even Microsoft couldn't figure out what to change or add on Pakistan's Pashto version of keyboard. In fact Pakistan Pashto has no keyboard layout. I wanted to send this request as an email but then I thought if we start a public conversion about it and get other people's opinions on this matter might be better and comprehensive. Regards
Every browser is lagging in my win 10 p c.
Hi.. This is Rajiv. I am having a serious issue here while using any browser in my windows 10 p c. Wheather it's Google Chrome which I used to prefer, Edge or Firefox. Every browser is showing a time delay of almost 30 seconds or even more to show up what I type there on search box or on my blog. Because i don't have any technical knowledge so I tried out on help forums like windows, Google, or internet and done a lot of steps to set up this problem like clearing cache and cookies, resetting to default settings, clearing history, updating chrome, uninstalling chrome, Firefox and reinstalling it. Deep disc cleanup, cleaning up even unnecessary system files, and last formatting window and updating it again. I cleaned up even every single app which I installed from internet and even files also. Now my p c is having only default files and apps which came with windows only. Even then I am having this issue and not able to use my p c for any work at all. I even tried a tech expert for this problem but even then nothing is working till now. Please help me in this issue. It will be a great favour to me. Thanks for your concern. Have a good day ahead
