Hello. Okay I am sure this has been discussed but the fixes I see from a search concern gpedit command which no longer works. Does anyone know the solution to this issue as I am a home user. Have network on private. In system properties under computer name it says "Workgroup: WORKGROUP" and although it says you can change the workgroup name I am unable to.

Is it possible to remove "Libraries" main folder
I never use the Windows libraries because they don't fit my scheme of data storage. Is it possible to delete/remove the "Libraries" folder in itself? I know that individual folders like "Documents" "Pictures" etc. can be deleted, but in my experience Microsoft has a habit restoring unneeded and unwanted objects. Also aware that the "Library" can be hidden, but for reasons mentioned previously, it...

Screen Flicker on Boot
Hi, I had posted about this over at Nvidia forums and got a nice snarky reply. If anyone else is having issues or ideas please let me know (although I have already posted about this). My main reason is to ask whether it is possible for a Windows update to affect my PC's bios post routine. :-) If so, how? Thank you.

How do I rename mixed JPG and MOV files into one numerical sequence
I have several folders of mixed photos and videos. Currently theyre manually sorted as I want them, in the order of their creation regardless of filetype (IMG or MOV). If I sort them temporarily on another column (e.g. Comments or Tags) then I have no way of returning to the current sort because IMG and MOV files dont share a common creation date metadata field, and some files have no date...

Having problems with the dism command
I'm getting an error when trying to use this command. It happened when it was around 85% complete. It said the service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it. (error 1058)
So I tried to search for the dism service in task manager and couldn't find it in there. Any help would be really appreciated.

Turn Computer Off Or Leave It On
I've always turned my computer off when not using it (like anything else: lights, TV, radio, stereo, etc.). Why should the computer be on when I'm asleep, at work, not home for whatever reason, etc.? But now I'm reconsidering that. When I turn the computer on it makes a sound which I guess is perfectly normal, but I hate hearing it. It reminds me that the disk drive is a mechanical device...

Weird problem after uninstalling Netflix from laptop
So... I had this really weird problem on my laptop. A few days ago, I decided to uninstall the Netflix app from my laptop in order to cut down on screen time. However, after I did this, all the audio on my computer took on an awful quality. There were blips and popping noises, harsh sounds, buzzing in the background of every clip, and occasionally a robotic quality to people's voices.

CMD window closing as soon as opened
This just started about two weeks ago. As soon as use the CMD command the window closes right away.
Doing some research, I think possibly it occurred after my computer got infected with a miner. My antivirus killed it right away and dozens of full scans indicate I am virus free.
However, researching it it looks like I am dealing with aftermath.
