Back in November, Microsoft teased an image embedding feature for Sticky Notes. That ability has been in testing since and is now rolling out to all OneNote web users. With the features, users can attach images from their personal files on a phone or PC. It seems Microsoft has not yet prepared image embedding for mobile or desktop versions of the app. That said, OneNote users with the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app are currently testing the feature on the Inside....

Two most common points observed using the powercfg utility and by collecting user testimonies were: The abysmal decline in charge capacity to just one or two hours max. Most units affected were using SIMPLO batteries. Li-ion batteries typically suffer from capacity degradation as charge cycles increase over its repeated use. However, because the issue occurs just shortly after warranty expiration, it happens within only about a one-year period. Such short time span cannot account for the reported level of charge capacity degradation....

Users can access translations via a flow menu before selecting their desired languages. Whatever they type will appear in the message field directly in that language, removing the tiresome process of copy and pasting from a browser. Meanwhile, copied text is translated instantly when you open the menu, with an option for quick replies. In terms of features, nothing seems to have changed since the beta, but the notable delay while typing seems to have subsided somewhat....

Traffic on your website does not mean that a user or the audience just must pay a visit to your website. It is more than that. The user or the audience must stay for quite some time over your website and show some interest. They do not purchase anything, but it should be engaging at the end. SEO helps in driving the traffic to your website by taking some or more of the useful methods....

It’s unclear what Intel said to convince Microsoft, or if any discounts were involved. However, ARM processors on Windows are very much in their infancy, and unable to offer the same degree of performance. There are a number of reasons to miss ARM currently beyond Intel’s push. Still, we can’t help but imagine the battery life improvements ARM would bring. The Surface Go touts a measly 9 hours next to the 20 hours of Always Connected PCs....

Our first glimpse of the unmentioning feature came in February when leaker Jane Manchun Wong found brought it online. Twitter followed up on that leak in April with confirmation of the tool, calling it unmentioning and saying it offers “a way to help you protect your peace and remove yourself from conversations.” For people who use Twitter a lot and have multiple threads/conversations running at the same time, unmentioning could be a useful tool....

With this latest version of the popular virtualization service, VMware is adding a bunch of new features. Among them is support for Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0. You may know this as one of the mandatory component requirements for PCs to be able to run Windows 11. That means with support for TPM 2.0, VMware Workstation 17.0 Pro officially supports Windows 11. Of course, there was a workaround before but this is now an official integration where Windows 11 is available as a guest OS....

Yesterday, the company rolled out Insider Preview 18262. Now that the October 2018 Update is out of the way, Microsoft is full steam ahead with the next full Windows 10 release. In this installment of the 19H1 branch, the company has made several changes. Perhaps the most notable is the ability to uninstall more preinstalled Microsoft applications. Previously, users could delete Solitaire Collection, My Office, OneNote, Print 3D, Skype, Tips, and Weather from the platform....

Perhaps the big news is Windows 10 continuing to put distance between it and Windows 7. Only over the last few months as the newer OS been leading desktop market share. Through the last quarter, Win10 increased its share to 43.62%, with Windows 7 dropping to 36.52%. Yes, it is still amazing that Win7 is sticking around in those numbers considering Microsoft will end support on Jan 1, 2020. However, it is testament to the platform’s legacy in enterprise that its numbers remain so high....

Specifically, Microsoft is working on moving the Fonts controls of Windows 10 from Control Panel to Settings. Additionally, new fonts will be downloadable from the Microsoft (Windows) Store. All options currently available for Fonts will be moved to Settings and installed fonts will be manageable from a single pane. This migration is currently in development and will reach a Windows 10 preview build soon. Redstone 4 is the next major update of the platform, expected in the spring....

All Windows 10 users can head to the Microsoft Store and download the News Bar. However, it is worth noting you need to be running Windows 10 version 17134.0 or newer. It is worth pointing out the News Bar remains in beta. When it first arrived a couple of weeks ago, the beta was limited to select users. The difference now is anyone on the eligible Windows 10 builds can now download the beta experience....

Specifically, Phoronoix tested the eight-core Ryzen 7 5800X3D, which is AMD’s first processor to feature 3D V-cache. According to the results of over 89 benchmark tests, Ubuntu 22.04.1 won 81 of them, with Windows claiming just 8 wins. In other words, Ubuntu took 91% of the results next to Windows’ 9%. The graph below shows that the biggest difference in performance was on the Renaissance Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) test....

According to XDA-Developers, the update (2021.21120.8011.0) is rolling out to Windows 11 users now. All users too, so this is not an Insider preview. This is possible because Microsoft now updates Photos – and some other Windows apps – individually. Either way, the new update makes a few interesting editing upgrades, such as placing the cropping tool below the image for easier access. Furthermore, users can select which aspect ratio they want to crop to....

“Tamper protection is a new setting available in the Windows Security app which provides additional protections against changes to key security features, including limiting changes that are not made directly through the app,” said the company. The feature will prevent other apps from disabling settings like real-time protection, cloud-detection, and behavior monitoring. It will also stop more advanced tactics like the deletion of security updates and malware database definitions....

Chatter on Reddit and other forums this morning suggests there is a problem with the Xbox Game Bar. Specifically, users are finding the bar is crashing with error codes and the following message: “Xbox Game Bar is currently not available in your account. Make sure you are signed in to the Store and try again. Here’s the error code, in case you need it: 0x803F8001.” Running our own checks, we found the Xbox Game Bar is indeed crashing and not working properly....

As a result, it should be much easier to search for games you enjoy. No longer will you have to scroll through pages of badly rated games to find one good one, or look at ones beyond your budget. Though the layout is still quite simplistic, it’s a notable improvement, and will likely get adjustments in the future. It’s also another signal that Microsoft is listening to user feedback – especially surrounding the store....

With the latest Your Phone update, Microsoft has increased the number of photos people can see on the app. Previously, the app would limit users to viewing just 25 of their most recent images. This limitation was frustrating for people considering many use their smartphones as cameras. Microsoft has responded and updated Your Phone to now allow users to access 2,000 of their most recent photos. That is much more like it and would be ideal from even the most camera-centric users....

Rather than tapping an icon, they can now swipe left to see the video they were watching previously, and right to go to the next recommendation. Naturally, its harder to perform the completely wrong gesture than accidentally tap an icon, and it also takes less effort. It’s a minor improvement, but Popular Science says it was a complex problem for YouTube’s design team. ‘Swipey watch’, as it’s nicknamed internally, requires “a relatively fundamental change to the page”....

As soon as many business aspects went remote and remained so in 2021 too, the demand for top-quality online solutions has never been as high as today. Obviously, the modern market can’t supply these new products and services in full. Thus, it might be the perfect time for you to offer your out-of-this-world vision. Also, switching to the web formed another huge advantage for fresh entrepreneurs — an extremely low entry threshold, which means you can start your company with rather small expenditures....

When Microsoft launched Windows 10, the company said it wanted the platform on one billion machines. It was a lofty goal that was almost certainly never going to be fulfilled. However, Windows 10 has grown consistently and has been successful. That said, Microsoft has been consistently urging companies to embrace migration. However, many organizations are still locked on older Windows versions and upgrading could costs a lot of money. Microsoft says Windows 10 is necessary as it brings modern security tools....
