Windows 10: Why is trying to update a new copy of Windows 11 on a fresh system an experience much like...

Like holy ****. Every other update freezes in mid download, fails in installation, constipates CATROOT2 and SoftwareDistribution, forcing risky maneuvers to clear it, leading to irremediable errors with ineffective troubleshooting tools, leading to re-install after re-install after re-install.This operating system is a crime against humanity. And I paid over $100 for this experience?

geforce experience takes an age to load..

Well that's why I asked. Mine is on SSD and takes 11 seconds. Your list of games will not appear if it has not checkd for updated suggested settings for awhile until it checks.

When it says it is refreshing the game list, it is checking, because NVIDIA periodically updates suggested settings. Plus it will look for those for new games you have installed.

So, the less it is run, the slower it will be.

 

I'd like to try editing imageres.dll. Experience with that file?

Ghot,

That .dll list [of mine, I think] is now a list of redirectors to .dll.mun files.
- Some of the original files might still contain some icons [the changeover was gradual] whilst some will contain none.

I suggest to you that, since it is only 7KB, it contains no icons.
What about C:\Windows\SystemResources\shell32.dll.mun?

Do note that the old dlls redirect silently. If you reference them they appear to be normal but they are not.

You can confirm that by copying shell32.dll to another location, such as your Desktop, then try to assign an icon from it to a test shortcut. You'll get the error message that it contains no icons.

Unable to reinstall Windows Web Experience Pack on Windows 11

Hi, Tom_183

Welcome to the MicroSoft Community.



If you're experiencing issues reinstalling the Windows Web Experience Pack on Windows 11 and encountering error code 0x803FB005, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Reset Microsoft Store: Resetting the Microsoft Store can help resolve installation issues. To do this, follow these steps:
   
   • Open the "Settings" app by pressing Windows key + I.
     
   • Go to "Apps" > "Apps & features".
     
   • Scroll down and click on "Microsoft Store".
     
   • Click on the "Advanced options" link.
     
   • Click the "Reset" button.
     
2. Clear Microsoft Store cache: Clearing the Microsoft Store cache can also help in resolving installation issues. Here's how:
   
   • Press Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
     
   • Type wsreset.exe and press Enter.
     
   • This will reset the Microsoft Store cache, and then the Store will launch automatically.
     
3. Check for Windows Updates: Ensure that your Windows 11 operating system is up to date. Some installation issues can be resolved by installing the latest updates. You can check for updates by going to "Settings" > "Windows Update".
   
4. Try a different user account: Create a new user account with administrative privileges and try installing the Windows Web Experience Pack from that account. Sometimes, issues can be user specific.
   

If there is anything not clear or I can't understand your problem, please do not hesitate to let me know.
