2 years ago, I requested help on my mistakenly formatted HDD that includes my whole photo archive. Tried a lot of ways to recover the files and they didn't work. Fortunately (or should I say, unfortunately), I found my photo archive on my Google Drive. I compressed my photos into a RAR archive back in 2017 but I put a password for it because that time I was sketchy if Google does look into our photos. I did save the password into a TXT file but goddammit it was lost in the formatted HDD. I have some hints but I wasn't able to find the password. Any suggestions on how I can crack the password? I have an RTX 3060 if that can help speed up the cracking progress.

Turns out it works on BIOS (using - and + keys, not typing the value) but with a big caveat. The performance halved when I applied a -50 mV undervolt. They say Intel removed the undervolt feature over the Plundervolt bug.

The case is MSI M100A. On actual workload, generally it's around 70 to 85C. 40C on idle.

Hi, After having a good time using my laptop with i5-8250U and Throttlestop enabled, finally I built my first desktop PC. I have an Intel i5-12400F with an MSI H610M-E mobo. The case has a mesh design with 4 fans (no problem in air cooling). The CPU runs pretty cool when idle but in very demanding workloads (such as Cinebench benchmarks or 4K video rendering), the CPU can go up to 98C with the stock cooler. I already applied a good amount of MX-4 thermal paste, so that would not be a problem. I tried to undervolt it but was unsuccessful. Intel XTU grays up the voltage parameter, Throttlestop says it's not available, and I can't undervolt it on BIOS too (but I'm not sure if I missed something). What should I do? I attached some screenshots from the BIOS, TS and XTU if it will be useful. Thanks.

Probably I won't, even if I have to it wouldn't be a problem if I have to wait an extra minute.

I'm going to pair RTX 3060 12 GB with i5-12400F. I'll use it for 1080p gaming and some video editing/rendering on Davinci Resolve as a hobby. A step up from i5-12400F to i5-12400 costs as much as $60 and I'm on a budget, I already gave up on AMD GPU because Nvidia GPUs apparently have better rendering performance. Local forums I asked about this question majorly got the answer "go with the i5-12400F" but guys from the Blackmagic forum say an iGPU in CPU will make a big improvement in performance and suggests the i5-12400. Which CPU should I go for?

You're right, but is there a GUI-equipped alternative for this? This does use scripts (commands) instead of serving a GUI interface. Edit: Guess I found it. Thanks https://github.com/tsukumijima/Real-ESRGAN-GUI

There's an app called SuperImage, it can upscale photos with Real-ESRGAN algorithm. While that's interesting, is there a Windows equivalent of the app/program?

If I plug a USB hub to my computer, then connect a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth adaptors (separately) on the USB hub, would it be a problem?

When I turned on my laptop in the morning, both the internet (Wi-Fi) and Bluetooth were gone. When I look in device manager, there is no Wi-Fi device (must be Intel) in network Adapters. At the bottom, I see a faulty device. When I double-click it, code 43 error appears, it says there is a problem. Solutions I tried: I restarted the computer. I took the Wi-Fi USB driver from my dad and checked for windows updates, everything is up to date. I checked the Intel driver assistant if the drivers are up to date, for some reason it couldn't identify the Wi-Fi driver. I downloaded the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth drivers for my model from Acer's own site, installed them, restarted the computer, it didn't work. Last but not least, I reinstalled Windows 11 from scratch on the laptop. The problem is still there. My computer model is Acer Swift 3 SF315-52G. What could be the solution? Could the network card be broken?

Hi. I just purchased a Microsoft Bluetooth mouse today. I already had a Philips SHB3075 Bluetooth headphones. The problem is, when both connected to my laptop, the audio on the headphones stutters. Sometimes the mouse also stutters when moved. Unpairing one of the devices solves the problem. Is there any solutions for this?

I have Samsung A32 phone and Samsung Fit 2. When the Fit 2 is out of range, it disconnects and can't connect automatically (thanks for the last update by Samsung). A bluetooth pairing request appears on the phone when the Fit 2 is in range again but it requires me to manually press on pair so it can connect. Is there a way so the phone can auto accept a bluetooth pairing request? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I'm considering that too. Maybe in next week when I have some free time, gonna reinstall Windows. Thanks for helping.

Yes, it is. But it was formatted with USB (from boot menu setup).

I didn't find it on both W11 Settings app and control panel app list.

How do I uninstall that? I checked with antivirus too.

Recently Microsoft released a update on Xbox Game Bar to see if our PC is DirectStorage supported. Apparently my PC does support it but there is an error on the Drive Status. It says "BypassIO not supported due to driver: EPMVolFl.sys". How can I solve that issue? My GPU is MX150 and my SSD is a NVMe SSD (A2000). Any help would be appreciated. Note: Virtualization is disabled on BIOS because undervolt on W11 doesn't work with virtualization open, does this make the issue?

Try creating a live boot, boot from it, format the SSD.

Thanks a lot guys for your helpful suggestions. Then I think I'm going to learn JavaScript first. Even Flutter uses JavaScript as its language.

Hi, I got interested about programming these days and I don't know anything about programming, at all. But I want to learn about it. I think I want to start by learning mobile (app) development or web programming. What is the best way to start learning to coding/programming? For example, recently I heard about Flutter. Is it a good platform to start learning how to programming? Any advice would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi guys, I have Acer Swift 3 (SF315-52G) that was "Play streaming HDR video" supported before I upgraded this laptop to Windows 11 (fresh install). Now it appears that my laptop is not supported to play streaming HDR video. I installed the latest graphics drivers and latest Windows updates and still no change. How can I fix that? Any help or suggestion would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

I am using windows 11. Amazon App Store update has arrived. However, when I run the application, it loads for 5 minutes and then gives the following error. What should I do? I tried the solutions on the internet (I made sure Virtualization is turned on, I turned on the necessary things through features, etc.) but they did not work.

I'm a laptop owner, so I have little to no experience with desktop PC. How does water cooling on a desktop doesn't make condensation? What techniques or materials does it use?

Just discovered this, this is interesting and should try...

I don't think wireless solutions is the way to go, no way they can support >60 FPS screen sharing. I'm an Anydesk user, and it only supports 60 FPS. But I should say it's a smooth experience. Is it possible to do screen sharing over USB connection? I don't think so?
