Paul Kater<p>Windows 11 is so amazing.<br>User reports that suddenly items in the start popup don't respond when being clicked.

Magical Cat<p>My wife recently had to use <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/gmail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gmail</span></a>, even she mostly use mailbox now.<br>So what the user experience? The big "ui blocker" with "We are pushing <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/aiGemini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>aiGemini</span></a> into your throat!" and for Her reaction was something between fear, "what the fuck?" scream, and "Dear, how to close that without agreeing for this shit?" frustrated question. <br>And this crap and UX catastrophe happens somehow only at one of our devices.<br>I explained way for Her to do that thing without gmail.<br>Just a case of in-family <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/ITSupport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ITSupport</span></a>.</p>

Judith<p>I may have resolved the problem.</p><p>Excel.exe was responsible for that message. This was easily spotted in Task Manager.<br>I found that .ods was associated with Excel.<br>The spreadsheets I was working with were .xlsx which was associated with LibreOffice Calc.<br>When I changed the .ods association to LibreOffice Calc the annoying OneDrive message no longer popped up.</p><p>Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions. I've learned a few useful things today, including seeing how much MS bloatware I need to uninstall!</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/TechHelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TechHelp</span></a> <br><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/FediHelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediHelp</span></a> <br><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/ITSupport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ITSupport</span></a> <br><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Microsoft</span></a></p>

Ursa<p>You know what I'd like? A cable labeling standard that requires the transmission and power protocols to be on the body of the connector or cable length.</p><p>So I dont have to spend 2 days trying to figure out that my PS5 wont send 4k to my tv via receiver because the HDMI isnt 2.0</p><p>IT IS NOT REASONABLE TO HAVE A SPEC SHEET AVAILABLE FOR A CABLE.
