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.

We can not assist in bypassing security features such as passwords. 
 
 

Removing the undervolt feature from Intel's main stream processors allowed Intel to reserve the undervolt feature only for their K series desktop CPUs and unlocked HX mobile CPUs. If Plundervolt was really such a horrible thing to be afraid of, Intel would have removed CPU voltage control from all of their CPUs. Nope. Intel just wanted to make some more money. Forcing enthusiasts to spend more $$$$ on higher end CPUs accomplishes that goal. 
 
Undervolt Protection is another great feature from Intel engineering. Even a tiny 5 mV undervolt in the BIOS can reduce performance in half when Undervolt Protection is enabled. If Intel used their resources to make their CPUs better, maybe their share price would be up more than 1% during the last year.  

case? And what about your actual load temperature on other workload? Intel stock cooler is barely enough for bursty load like gaming, they cant handle sustained load.

I dont thik intel lets you control the voltages at all with a H610 board so i guess you arer out of luck and maybe just need to get a cheapish aftermarket cooler

After little bit more research, Yes, they have hardware accelerated encoding and decoding for some types of HEVC but not all of them, like Intel iGPU do have, in DaVinci Resolve.

When I wrote what I said the text I did read only talked about HEVC 4:2:2, not 4:2:0. Didnt realize it was different, my mistake, sorry.
So as correction to what I said:
 
It depends if you will use HEVC/h.265 4:2:2 or not. If you dont then it doesnt matter.

The Nvidia GPU also has hardware accelerated encoding and decoding of HEVC. 
I can't see any reason why an iGPU would help in this use case. I would go for the F model without an iGPU. 

A quick google yields me this https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN which mentions a Windows executable.

A powered USB hub would make sure everything has enough power and you don't damage anything (like the port it's attached too) by overloading it. 

No, as long as there is enough power provided to the peripherals, everything will work.

Remove anything that deals with HD.
 
BitLocker.
EPMVolFl.sys is also used on the EAUS Partition Tool/Magic.

+1 same issue.

Not sure if its because I had the NVME Samsung 980 PRO set as a dynamic disk (and therefore wasn't even showing as NVME? Not sure if that was the reason), and converted it to basic to using the EaseUS Partition Master to access more features. Obviously not the cleanest solution here, but at least it now shows an NVME drive.

I installed Win 11 fresh pretty recently - but have everything loaded and ready for office work and gaming. Not too keen on re-installing so soon when DirectStorage is not really doing anything for gaming yet.

something installed that file that shouldn't be there. 
i would try reinstalling from scratch. and install the update to gamebar as first.. and see if it gets in. 
 

Computer science major here. Having once been in your position, I want to try and offer some clarification. "How do I learn programming" is a really vague question to try to answer, and (in my experience) you will get a lot similarly vague and often conflicting responses. Realistically speaking, how you learn programming should be defined by you end goal. What was it that got you "interested about programming"? If you just have an idea for an app or website, JavaScript probably isn't a bad place to start. If, however, you want to really learn about programming and about computers, then web and app development is not really the place to start. In that case, I would personally recommend you jump into C++. It is certainly more intimidating to start, and you probably won't running any project outside a terminal widow for a while, but I think that the fundamental skill and knowledge you gain leaning C++ are more valuable than learning any single language. Additionally, C++ is a long lived, very widely used language with excellent documentation and a ton of resources. Once you have learned a couple languages, learning a new one is just tedious, but no amount of syntax knowledge can replace the ability the think like a programmer. If want to share you thoughts on which direction you might want to go, I can try to offer up some resources.
 
No matter what though, best of luck and have fun!

Depending on what you might be able to acccess from a library I find that the Linkedin Learning courses are okay. The Javascript one probably wouldn't be everyone's favourite since it uses Microsoft Visual Studio Code and recommends extensions, so it's not the purist way of coding. But it talks about and gives examples to practice a lot of the major concepts you would need to know just in general for web development.

One thing about web development is every week there is a new 'best' framework platform to use library to use.
 
If you are serious about learning web development start with the basics of JavaScript/HTML/CSS. Then you can start to add on higher level languages like TypeScript/SCSS that can make development easier. Those compile into JavaScript and CSS>
 
If you goal is to create a product, and quickly, then use a really popular framework like React as it will have a lot of search results to figure out how to do things. (I like VueJS myself).
 
If your goal is to create a mobile app, then web apps are a great way to go as they can be turned into mobile apps using things like Cordova while also not requiring you to learn both Android and iOS platforms and maintain two separate apps. That downside being that they may not perform as well, but on modern phone hardware, it's usually not really a problem.

Flutter is a Google project. Google tends to just stop continuing its projects - it's been 267 as we speak:
https://killedbygoogle.com
 
For web and mobile development, different languages have different strengths. In recent months, I've come to the conclusion that Go is a pretty solid web development language.
But yes, Flutter is rather good for mobile development - as long as it's continued.
 
 
Flutter uses Dart as its language. The browser-facing parts need to be in JavaScript though, as web browsers don't (fully) support other languages for interactive content just yet.

Based on what limited experience I have, I would suggest starting to learn programming concepts first, even just the very basics. Then make a really basic mini-project just to test what you already know. One good project I often suggest is a basic login system where the program will close when the user fails to login for the 3rd time. This project can be done in many many ways and can easily be improved on over time. It can make use of IF-ELSEs, loops, variables, inputs & outputs, and so on, but not all of them are necessarily required. The point is to get a hang of the concepts, and this project in particular is both easy to grasp and very versatile - you can even complete it only using IF-ELSE statements and input/outputs.
 
As Levent said, I wouldn't recommend jumping onto new languages myself either. For your purposes, JavaScript is a great start for web development. C# .NET is good for mobile development, although it does have a steeper learning curve than basic web development. That said, nothing's stopping you from using Flutter! 😄
 
As for where to start, I don't have any recommendations for learning resources for Flutter unfortunately. I don't want to recommend something at random only to find out it's a bad learning material. For JavaScript, W3Schools' JS tutorial is pretty good in my opinion. If you want a video tutorial series, I highly recommend Caleb Curry's JavaScript series. Same for C#. Here's the W3Schools one, and here's the video series. though this doesn't feature .NET, so here's the official Youtube guide for .NET instead.
 
I'm sure someone out there have better suggestions than what I gave you here, but these worked for me and I personally recommend them. Good luck on your programming journey!
 

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.

Getting in on a relatively new programming language is not easy. Flutter is one of those. I am not saying you cant learn it, it just takes a bit longer and finding answers may not be easy especially all alone. Something like React Native is what I would recommend, if front-end is not your thing look at Java or .NET.

Just start coding.
Think of something you want to create, and then start to search for tutorials on that thing.
But if you a beginner, then sites like codeacadamy etc can help you to get you on your feet. Haven't heard of flutter, but probably fine.

There is not a single mention of that laptop supporting HDR anywhere on the internet other than your own post asking about HDR on this thing 2 years ago. Budget laptops rarely supports features like HDR, I would say its safe to assume your laptop doesnt support it and it was previously a driver gimmick.

The only way to generate condensation is to have a method of cooling that makes the surface cooler than the air around it. 
 
Since the water in a water loop is carrying the heat to a radiator, it's ultimately the air that does the cooling. Since you can't use the air to make something colder than the air, you can't really get condensation.

It's just like normal cooling it doesn't do anything special. If this is you thinking water evaporates then that doesn't happen at all. It's a sealed system.
 
Condensation happens when there is enough moisture in the air, a great enough temperature difference on a surface and the surrounding air and there isn't too much airflow.

try Splashtop Wired XDisplay, or maybe Duet
 
edit:
 
Though these things arent going to work for gaming, more just second screen use.
