Windows 11 Support Thread

Running my home PC for years and did not even notice that TPM 2.0 was not enabled in the BIOS until Win 11 stopped updating :laugh:
 
So frustrated. Cannot install Win 11 IoT Enterprise 2024 on a motherboard. Win 11 Pro 24H2 also fails.
But WIN 10 IoT Enterprise 2019 and 2021 do install.

Secure boot is Disabled, but Win 11 IoT isn't supposed to care.

Windows 11 Pro requires Secure Boot and a TPM 2.0 module. However, with Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2024, you have the option to enable or disable these features. Although the use of Secure Boot and TPM module is advisable, with the LTSC 2024 edition you have this option.

Does anyone know how to get rid of the "Recommend" nag on the Start menu when you disable that feature?
I go and disable it so I have more real estate for pinned apps and then windows still blocks that space :mad:

There's 4 ways afaik ...

1. set display scale to 125% (easiest but not everyone likes the bigger text)
2. get an enterprice edition key and activate ... then you can remove it via Group Policy
3. If you use explorerpatcher there's an option to remove it (what Im using)
4. read this ... https://www.neowin.net/guides/how-to-remove-recommended-from-the-start-menu-in-windows-11/

Was trying something simple and run my guitar through some virtual amps and stuff but windows just bombs out on the sound card and latency. It seems quite common doing a search.

Probably just badluck again.

Windows is an abortion when it comes to audio, I record, stuff often, and it works, kind of, but not well enough to make me happy and meet my expectations.

Bad luck is in having to use Windows.

Linux does audio properly, but you need to know what you doing and why.

I sometimes use good old Winamp and its many hundreds of DSP plugins for sound enhancements when I have too much time kn my hands

One of those plugins is absolutely brilliant at maintaining a actual volume level properly, plus some other things, so YouTube content especially is volume normalised.

But I have to run All Windows audio through winamp to achieve this, found a simple solution in a Virtual Aux Cable software, it emulates an input device to which all audio is routed, use this as the Mic Input in Winamp, then the actually output device is set to another Cable as the default Windows output.

No delay or high Cpu isage for the virtual cables, and it's free, brilliant.

Virtual Aux Cable is very niffy, but even tho it does not add much in the way of latency, niether does it reduce latency, of which there is way too much to start with, a result of kernel, and kernel driver issue. Audio on Windows is an after thought. :(
