  1. Problem with Windows 11 showing folders and settings page


    I just installed Windows 11 todayI have attached 2 screen shots. First Screenshot- SSD C Drive the files shown are Signatures for Outlook. I put them in C;\users\Otter\Microsoft\signatures. Now I cannot get to the C: Drive for anything. Plus the header is impossible to read it is so lightSecond Screenshot: System page. It shows Mike Mirando and his e mail. I have no clue how that happened. I'm the administrator at least I think so and it would be Otter or my email Tony Mirando.As you can see, there is basically nothing on the top of any folder. Tony

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Hide/Show some of the pages

    Thank for the response. Actually I already have set up the notebook like you suggested. For clarity's sake this is the layout:

    • I have a "Notebook" set up for the College, call it HCC
    • I have "Sections", one for each quarter - Winter'11, Spring 11, Summer 11, Fall 11, and now Winter 12
    • Under each of these Sections, I have two or three classes set up as "Pages", say, Week 1, Week 2, ... so on upto Week 10, one for each class.
    • When I go to Office Mobile on my Windows Phone, I see all the "Pages" of all the Sections that I have accessed before as OneNote "Tiles".


    As you can imagine theret is a pretty large number of Tiles/pages and to quickly find and navigate to a page is a nightmare.

    Can you see anything that you could suggest me to clear this "clutter" up. Perhaps, this is what I'd like to see -

    A Tile for every Section, instead of for every Page! - like a tile for Winter 11, a tile for Fall 11 etc.



    Thanks for your help.

    Problem with Windows 11 showing folders and settings page

    ?? How do I PW protect Folders in windows

    hmmm?
    Sharing files and folders overview You can share the files and folders stored on your computer, on a network, and on the Web. The method you choose depends on whom you want to share files with, and what computer they will use to access the files.

    When you share files or folders, they are not as protected as they are when you do not share them. People with access to your computer or your network might be able to read, copy, or change files that are in a shared folder. You should always be aware that the files and folders that you share are available to other people and be sure to monitor your shared files and folders on a regular basis.

    Important

    If your computer is not joined to a domain, you can use the Network Setup Wizard to automatically turn file and printer sharing on or off. To start the Network Setup Wizard, click Start, click Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Setup Wizard.
    If you both use the same computer

    You can put the files you want to share in the Shared Documents folder. Files stored in the Shared Documents folder or its subfolders are always available to other users on your computer.

    Step-by-step procedure
    Note

    If you are connected to a network domain, the Shared Documents, Shared Pictures, and Shared Music folders are not available.
    If both computers are on the same network

    You can share a folder or drive on your computer with others on the network. You can also control whether the files in the shared folder can be modified by other users.

    If your computer is connected to a network domain, use this procedure:

    Step-by-step procedure
    If your computer is connected to a workgroup, use this procedure:

    Step-by-step procedure
    Note

    If you are connected to a network domain, you will need to set the Access control for the folder or drive after sharing it. For more information, go to To set, view, change, or remove file and folder permissions.
    If you want to share your files online

    You can publish pictures and documents on the Web using the Web Publishing Wizard. The files will be stored in a private, online folder that you manage.

    Step-by-step procedure

    If you don't want others to access your files

    You can prevent other users from accessing your folders and the files they contain. When your computer is connected to a domain, this is called setting permissions for your file or folder. When your computer is connected to a workgroup, this is called making your folders private.

    If your computer is connected to a network domain, use this procedure:

    Step-by-step procedure
    If your computer is connected to a workgroup, use this procedure:

    Step-by-step procedure
