    Walk Away Mode


    Hi,Does anyone see a "Walk Away Mode" with a 5 second countdown when your Windows 11 PC has been inactive for 60 seconds? I have gone through all the personalization and screen settings and all are set to "Never" yet my system still goes to sleep after 60 seconds. I have a Dell PC and Dell wants me to do a system wipe and Windows reinstall. "That SHOULD work" so not going to do that.It's super annoying to have to unlock my PC 60 times a day.Thanks!

    :)

    Driving mode and walking mode views

    I would prefer that navigation in driving mode (simulating the view from car dashboard) has the same view as walking mode (vertical view of map). In driving mode you cannot see much of the route ahead so that you can judge for yourself whether you want
    to follow the suggested route or not. I prefer the walking mode view, but if you drive the maps stops working if you drive any faster that walking speed.



    Is there a way to change the driving mode view?

    Voices for walking

    They should be downloadable through your phone. Open Maps>Spanner/Wrench>Navigation>Walk Navigation. There should be a list of downloadable voices which would appear when you are logged in and in online mode.

    Walk Away Mode

    New FF - passwords

    Hi:

    If that setting is already enabled, then I suggest as the next troubleshooting step might be Mozilla Safe Mode (not to be confused with Windows Safe Mode)):

    Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode | Firefox Help


    • Please report back and let us know the outcome, as it will dictate the next steps.
    • Also: please tell us what AV/AM/firewall programs are you running on this system?

    Thanks,
    MM
