  1. Why does my screen display resolution change by itself after re-installing Windows 11 and...


    Whenever I re-install my laptop, my display resolution changes by itself the display turns from 100x to 175x after 3-8 minutes of being on the sign up the white pages you see to set up your laptop/pc after re-installing windows screen. If I am fast enough, it happens after the sign up for windows. I want to know why this is happening and ensure if this behavior is normal or not. Also, after running the media creation tool, there was a file called autorun.inf. Is autorun.inf normal to see?

    :)
