Thank you for your helpful uploads. I have about 5 yrs old win10 Dell laptop, that shows it cannot be upgraded to win11. Meantime, I had about a year ago downloaded the Malwarebytes free trial and installed to scan slow laptop for malware because the laptop had became exceedingly slower over time. I still have Norton AV & after the Malwarebytes trial expired, it continues to nag that the trisl expired and wants a purchase. IME Malwarebytes long ago was a program many techs recommended who used it with great success, and before the trial period expired I was considering purchasing license to switch to it and uninstall norton av. But now I find it very offputting that i cannot uninstall the free malwarebytes trial version easily, and that it's using this hostage like methodology with the trial license to lock you into purchasing their upgrade. Although I can kill the malwarebytes upgrade nag task after startup, I cannot easily end the malwarebytes service in tasks running in the background. Why is Malwarebytes so difficult to remove the trial version? I'm tired of Norton because it's likely contributed to the slowness, but I still feel I need to use AV software with current definitions regularly. Do you support purchasing Malwarebytes subscription for regular AV active monitoring? Or what other recommendations and was hy. How the heck do I get the MWB trial software version completely removed?

...outside of those "Content Creators" that are just pumping out videos and don't really know what their talking about...🤪 Come the absolute worst,... those self-absorbed ones that do know, but skim fast the parts that THEY know, get sidetracked, and barely can explain the subject of the video.😡 Most good ones have said that they write a script ahead of time, so they already can tell what they sound like. The reason i subscribed here, is that you already know you're TEACHING something. 😅

Yeah I'm a dummy and sign into MS. Now If I go to local account, will I still have the same favorites.? (website links at top of the webpage) Then, what about the passwords? I don't use Google, just Edge. All of that is important for everyone's activity; Going to the regular webistes. I don't have a lot of files in my exporer. I do have saved pictures I copied and use as wallpaper. Like screen captures??? DO I need to make a password for a local account? Until OS 10 AND 11, I didn't have to sign into my computer. ??? When I sign in now I use a pin to get to the regular webpage to get things started. That is one thing I have learned, to know "both sides of the fence" so I can step back if I made a mistake. Anyway, I think it is a good idea to go with local account, but I want to know everything about the questions above. I will be grateful to know this.

@@AskYourComputerGuy I created a local account. I wrote down new username and password. The computer rebooted but I had to use the pin to get past the lock page as when I sign into MS. I didn't catch where I could choose preference of not needing to do that. Then I rebooted because I like to check things out after I do something. So when I rebooted I guess that was the same as signing out of the local account. When I got to the sign in page and it shows the bar where I put my pin in. It wouldn't let me in. I had a mess. I went through MS. I entered the password on record and it said It wasn't right. Nothing was right. I had to go through resetting password. I don't know what happened. I check out all the other things you had in this video. Now when I get into my computer its back to MS. I was thinking of going back to setting for choosing the local account again and see if stupid Windows accepts the password for that since it is new. I'm afraid to do that; it might not recognize the password I just set. I guess MS wants me for their "slave"

Your explanation between setting up a local account or a Microsoft Account was excellent. This is my computer not Microsoft’s computer 💻 I want to eliminate big corporations from spying and tracking me. Thank you once again for your informative videos that are educating thousands of people like myself. 😊

I bought a laptop with win11 for the family and created an user for each member. Guess what? Bought the office and when the other person logs it asks to buy office for the other person too. That’s ridiculous! I’ll pay a license for the computer, not for every single person that uses the computer!

There could be a problem with licens. If the company has run LTSC version, you wil have to buy a new license.
@AskYourComputerGuy
@AskYourComputerGuy 5 сағат бұрын
Incorrect. LTSC only applies to the Windows installation (pre-imaged or otherwise). Once you delete the partition and/or format the C drive, there is no licensing. It's just a standard old empty hard drive at that point. There is nothing in the bios that has any control over what you install on that drive. That's the situation I ran into. Once I wiped it, it was "just any old computer", waiting for Windows 👍

1) I don't get how people would ever want to backup using onedrive, the single worst cloud sw I have ever used. My gf almost lost years of onenote notes due to that onedrive breaking itself. 2) bitlocker is stupid. Everybody knows that data encryption at rest is a relative security measure. Doesn't protect the data while you are using it and if you get infected the data is stolen anyway. What it does prevent you to do is recover all data with a live linux usb drive in case the system gets corrupted, which is super useful. If data is not encrypted you can easily recover everythting. Another reason not to use bitlocker.

If none of these steps fix the problem, you might need to reset Windows. Obviously some system file somewhere is damaged. Before doing that, I'd run sfc /scannow from a command prompt. Then reset Windows if still not working
