Sysinternals Sysmon is now integrated into #Windows11 OS (right now, Beta Build 26220.7752 only). Found it, enabled it, installed it today. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

When all is said and done, getting my mini-fleet to Secure Boot 2023 CA status wasn't too bad. Here's a report card of sorts... #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz https://www.edtittel.com/blog/chez-tittel-secure-boot-report-card.html

Wow! New RECORD: 24 apps "managed by the MS Store" pending when I checked just now. Hope AppInstaller (WinGet) is among them... #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

Who knew the old Logitech Unifying transceiver might be detected as a SATA storage device during device enumeration phase at bootup? Switched to wired mouse and A6 POST error went away. Sheesh! #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

Plunked down nearly US$600 (all told) for a replacement GPU for RyzenOfc, believing it will bring Secure Boot alive at last. We'll see: deets follow. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz https://www.edtittel.com/blog/buying-newer-gpu-for-ryzenofc.html

Just found a great use for Windows Sandbox. An increasing number of websites won't let you read them without turning ads on (I run multiple ad-blockers). Rather than changing my std setup, I'll read them inside Sandbox. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

Useful insight #1 this morning: winget PIN lets one ignore bogus or broken packages (e.g. DirectX and Adobe stuff). Easy to set up and monitor, too. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

Increasingly convinced that gearing up for Secure Boot requires newer graphic cards. Couldn't get either B550 to boot until swapped 3070 for 1070 GPU. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

A new update (preview KB5074105, at that) does the trick for getting my production working with Secure Boot and CA 2023 credentials. What a ride! #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz https://www.edtittel.com/blog/kb5074105-brings-on-secure-boot.html

Aaaaaaaand this morning, came into a shutdown PC. On startup, I learned I had to delete a directory, and restart again to regain use of the PIN. Seems that resetting TPM keys changes things up LOTS! #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

Bozhe moi! After running a Secure Boot key update, I didn't know that long, long, long boot times in "black screen mode" were the norm. Now I do, but it was a SCARY learning exp. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz https://www.edtittel.com/blog/secure-boot-oddities-accumulate.html

Just rebooted my last machine into production... no more #WindowsInsiders crap for me anymore...

Hmmm: if you take the Nadella claim of "1B #Windows11 users" as literal truth, and the December Statcounter numbers likewise, that means there should be 800=900M #Windows10 instances. Sounds kinda high... #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz

Those "zombie reclaimables" came back on my ARM-based ThinkPad T14s. Here's how I extirpated them! #Windows11 #MVPbuzz #WindowsInsiders https://www.edtittel.com/blog/returning-spurious-reclaimables-removed.html

During an earnings call yesterday, Satya Nadella says "Windows reached a big milestone, 1 billion Windows 11 users." That's "Up over 45 percent year-over-year," he continues. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz https://www.techbuzz.ai/articles/windows-11-hits-1-billion-users-outpacing-windows-10

PowerToys v0.97.1 came out yesterday; just got my first update for same via WinGet. Quick: Good! #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz
