    Softwares won't open unless I click on a notification


    Hi, I have an issue with opening some softwares on my laptop.When I try to open a software like Whatsapp on my computer, the cursor shows the loading icon for a split second then stops and doesn't open the software. I tried opening it by running it as an administrator but it still doesn't work. However, when I get a pop up notification from that software, it opens it with no problem. It mainly does this for whatsapp and discord, has anyone had this problem?My window is updated to Window 11 version 22H2

    :)

  2. (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

  3. Store Settings "Update apps automatically" won`t stay switched off. WHY?

    Hi H. G.,

    The possible reason why Update apps automatically turn back on is that the Store app is running in the background. We suggest that you turn off the Store app. This way, it won't receive any updates or send notifications unless opened or turned on
    manually.

    To turn off Store app, follow these steps:

    • Click the Windows logo, then go to Settings.
    • Click Privacy, then Background apps.
    • On the list, locate Store and toggle it off.

    Let us know how it goes so we can further assist you.

    Regards.

    Step 1: Run Windows app troubleshooter.

    • Press Windows key + X and select
      Command prompt(Admin)
      to open elevated Command prompt.

    • Hit enter, the blackscreen will appear still for a couple of seconds. After a couple of second a new line saying C:\.... will appear.
