My experience has been pretty smooth for the most part, but I came across an annoying bug(?) just now. Fallout New Vegas is crashy, this is nothing new, but one of its failure modes is a lock up, but not CTD. Used to be I'd three-finger salute and get the task manager up, and kill it to get back to the desktop in Win7. Just tried that for the first time in 10 and the fancy looking new task manager wouldn't show up over the black screen-sized window of FNV. Had to log out from the Ctrl+Alt+Del screen. I hope that was a fluke.

Endymion FRS MK1 posted:Set Task Manager to open over top of other Windows. That setting must've reset itself. Hmm, I checked this when you suggested it, and yes it was not selected at the time so I turned it on. Then I had the game crash today, and had the same problem again. Always On Top had reset again. Time to download that 4GB patch and hopefully make FNV a little more stable, I guess.

How can I convince Windows to let go of the past and stop trying to update the drivers for the GeForce 8800GT that was replaced about 6 months ago? I ran DDU (in Safe Mode, with the old card in the system, shut down and swapped cards, then restarted and installed the new card's - a Quadro - drivers). I noticed the continued attempts at updating the old drivers, and ran DDU again (the old card is long gone at this point). Still have the same issue. I think this is keeping the anniversary update at bay. If I can avoid a complete reinstall that would be nice. This is my update screen.

Is it possible to tweak the adaptive brightness levels to be a little bit higher? I like the idea of the screen changing automatically and being a bit more efficient, but even with the slider maxed out the brightness indoors is just a bit too low for me. This is Windows 10 Home version 1809 on a Matebook X Pro.

I recently updated to 1903 on my Matebook X Pro, and the sleep behavior has changed. A couple days ago it started playing a YouTube video that was left open, in the middle of the night when it was closed. This morning, I found it running and warm to the touch (plugged in, charged, lid closed). Only things running were Chrome and some stuff in the background like Steam. I'm also running Throttlestop in the background. Before, it would go to sleep when I closed the lid, and after a short period of time (maybe 1 hour on battery, 2-4 when plugged in) it would hibernate. I've poked around in advanced power settings, and it is set to not sleep when plugged in (as before), and lid closed is set to sleep either plugged or unplugged. I've toggled those settings off and back on with a couple restarts in between and I'll see if that helps. Anything else I need to check?

Klyith posted:1903 has a new scheduled task for doing updates that runs daily and will wake the PC from sleep. And because it gets scheduled into non-active hours, that's probably when your PC will be in sleep. It's very annoying and there are three ways to fix it: Awesome, I'll try this later. Thanks!

In the latest update for Windows 11, is the bar in the volume/brightness popups broken? The small sun/speaker icon changes really slightly, but not enough to really tell the difference between like 0-50-100%. Volume at least also has the number to the right. I can click and drag on the bar to adjust the level, but it is one solid color. Seems unintentional. e; Nice.
