I fixed the problem without reinstalling. More details here:

When I try to open notepad nothing happens other than the loading icon on the mouse. When I open paint or word pad, an error message pops up saying unable to create new document. I tried installing and uninstalling them in the optional features section, but when i reinstall, it says install failed. How would I fix this?

Removing bitdefender worked. They are removing support for it in a few months, so there is no point in reinstalling.

I think this has something to do with bitdefender, so I am going to remove it.

Here is a photo of the devices When I plug in a new device, it pops up a new one here, and uninstalling, and letting it reinstall it does not fix it.

When I plug in any storage device into my computer in my thinkpad T510, for example, a camera, or a USB stick, it doesnt work, and the drive does not show up. In device manager, I see a ! triangle next to something labeled USB mass storage device. In device status, it says Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware because a previous instance of the device driver is still in memory. (Code 38) How can I fix this? A temporary fix is to reboot my computer, but that only lasts until a device is unplugged, or sometimes it doesn't work at all. My Mouse, Keyboard, and Bluetooth adapter work fine.

I have a laptop from 2010 that has its ssd from 2010. I am going to replace it with a new ssd. Since my old ssd is sata 2 (3gbps), and the motherboard also supports olny sata 2 (3gbps). Will the sata 3 ssd increase my laptop performance?

Cool, my current ssd uses 60mw when idle. 0.06 W. So will the new one make my battery way less, or just a little bit? My laptop has 80 Watt hours

It says it uses 1W of power when idle. Will my laptop battery be reduced?

I have an intel D3-S4510 datacenter SSD that has more storage than my current SSD. I know it works when I put it in my laptop but will there be any problems if I trade it for my boot drive? My laptop is thinkpad T510 with a 3GBps sata.

What are your specs? And how much free space do you have. When it is acting up, tell me what %memory is used, CPU%, disk write% and cpu speed. Those should be avalable in task manager.

I am using a minnowboard turbot (kind of like a raspberry pi, except its x86_64) When I boot it, the led connected to the gpio pins is normal brightness. After i create the gpio pin by typing echo [pin number] >/sys/class/gpio/export it turns off. This is normal. After I change it to out and changing "value" to 1 by using echo 1 >/sys/class/gpio/gpio[pin-number]/value Then the led is very dim thus representing a lower voltage. I am using ubuntu 20.04. I did the same thing in a previous os (Linux mint), and everything worked as expected. How can i make the led be brighter, and the gpio output the correct voltage?

Nice

Thanks!
