  1. Weird bug. Fixed it by restarting but I'm more curious about what actually happened


    Turned on my computer, it said there was an update it was installing

    But the screen was split down the middle. Like when you have two monitors displaying the same thing, except the right hand side displayed more than the left hand side did, with the whole left half of the screen completely invisible but still there and able to be interacted with.

    It did this. I'm very confused. Settings didn't detect a second monitor, either. It's hard to see on the image cuz phone camera but the mouse is visible on both screens, but only the right "screen" shows a bit of task manager. I could view take manager on the left hand side if I dragged it all the way on screen on the right hand side, though.

    I've been using this TV for like 6 months and this hasn't happened before, so it's definitely not, like, the tv. Different HDMI didn't fix it, didn't try a different monitor, couldn't find any settings to fix it.

    But restarting did. Anyway, I'm curious if anybody knows what freaked out to make it do that cuz it is honestly kinda funny and weird.

  2. Taskbar bug: switching to another window -will not appear at the front


    Follow either of these steps to fix the issue with the Active window hiding behind.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to disable window by hovering over it with the mouse and check if it helps. To do so I suggest you to try the below given steps and check if it helps:

    1. Press Windows key + X key and click on Control Panel.
    2. Select or click Ease of Access.
    3. Click or tap onEase of Access Centre.
    4. Click on Make the Mouse Easier to Use was uncheck Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse.
    5. Check if issue is resolved.
    Method 2:
    I would suggest you to completely uninstall the touchpad driver and reinstall it. Kindly follow the below given steps.

    1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
    2. In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
    3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
    4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
    5. In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes” option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.

    Weird file path bug?

    Hello guys, I curious about this bug thing... It is weird, err... not really weird tho.

    Since I installed Windows last week, I got this software named Networx from SoftPerfect reporting weird file path, as you can see in the screenshot below :


    Weird bug. Fixed it by restarting but I'm more curious about what actually happened a3e3cf81-1894-4e66-af67-e706fe03a123.png


    The correct one should be,

    B:0\ -> C:\

    B:1\ -> G:\

    B:2\ -> A:\

    B:3\ -> C:\

    I believe this is a bug from Windows, because I see a Windows Firewall popped up with a weird file path too

    Help anyone?

    Thanks,
