Do Android apps now work in the UK?

I think it's end of Oct IIRC. You have to get them from the Amazon store. Im not sure how useful it will be given that.

They have removed up time from task manager which is annoying.

You cant use EasyBCD if you have secure boot enabled and if you can get to the bootmenu to boot a diff OS or what ever the options wont boot.

How are we supposed to see up time now.

(I think we can do it by typing systeminfo in command prompt).

Anyone had any issues with Battle.net since the last update push (not 22H2).

Unable to update CoD since the last reboot/update installation. Needed to reinstall the lot.

Not sure if it's Battle.net, CoD or W11 at this point.

I checked new task manager and uptime is still here. I am on 22H2, uptime is not removed in task manager.

Yes - you are right I have just checked and it's there on mine too!

 

[something daft already!!]

Well it wasn't working last night so I'll check when I get home tonight.

Still the same after a reboot.

Please note, i have not done this so can't comment on if it works or not.

You can just write your own powershell debloater and run it once you have installed windows.

I think I need a bit of help as getting confused.......

Currently running Windows 11. I have tpm on mobo but I had to use the reg edit to install it as my cpu is old.

I'm getting no updates regarding the 22H2, but I've read that you can update Windows by downloading the ISO. But wouldn't that just reinstall Windows??

Run the setup file to upgrade and you'll keep all your apps, files and settings.

I got the 22H2 via Windows Update and i think it may have reinstalled windows anyway.

I have a "Windows.old" folder on my C drive again.

You will, do a disk cleanup if you want to get rid of it.
