    Windows 11 23H2: Windows shortcut keys not working

    No. I have carried out the usual checks like sfc etc and no luck, the final one I will try today will be the keyboard driver and then possible a reset.

    New Edge/Bing Button

    With the update of Edge comes yet another button to fit into the already crowded top status /address bar. Yes it could be handy for some as it includes the new Bing AI search but for myself, I just find it a hinderence. There is a registry workround that will get rid of this (for me) annoying...

    How to change view "group by" to none permanently

    Have you looked at the "folder options" under the three little dots near the View option and made any changes there? OldGeek

    Everyone should try this one

    Yes it is the same with the other names mentioned because they are on the reserved list. So if yiou have a problem making a folder name then it will be because of this. OldGeek

    Privacy on Win 11

    One thing I failed to remark on is that you can permanantly prevent that list from occuring by resetting an option if you wish. In the file explorer there are three dots on the menu....See below

    Privacy on Win 11

    I am not sure to which you are referring, that particular statement was not at all helpful, why not just say that all OS platforms lack privacy without saying why and using the forum as an advertising platform. OldGeek
