Windows 10: Window Pane: File Checkboxes unchecked option doesn't work permanent bug?

2025.01.24LG Gram 17" no touchscreen, updated yesterday... left my ADHD annoyed.1. Check boxes next to icons increases size of window and on laptop screen, space is at a premium. Want checkboxes gone. Unchecked, they still remain.2. Also, I really miss QuickLaunch that kept fast access to apps/shortcuts without taking up all the space along the Taskbar.Anyone have a suggestion regarding the file checkboxes?

:)

 

Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

Thanks again!!

I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

I ran SeaTools. These are the results:




Does it mean my HDD is useless?

 

Preview Pane Not Working For Some File Types

After upgrading user's computer to Windows 11, he cannot preview some documents in the preview pane (he could prior to the update).

They are files created by Siemens NX application and have the file type .prt

The preview pane works for your normal stuff like .pdf or .txt files.

Issue happens for existing files on the network as well as newly created .prt files

Troubleshooting already performed:

• Restart Windows Explorer
  
• Restore File Explorer settings to default
  
• Ran SFC, DISM, and chkdsk tools
  
• The application creating the files was reinstalled
  
• Re-installed Windows 11 (multiple times)
  
• File explorer options
  
  • 'show preview handlers in the preview pane' checkbox is checked
    
  • 'always show icons, never thumbnails' is unchecked
    
• Tried the performance option of 'adjust for best appearance'
  

 

The Connect Automatically Checkbox will not *stay unchecked*

Hi Needan,

Though you can manually disconnect from the network to avoid reconnecting to it automatically, you may also disable the automatic connection feature of your Wi-Fi connection. Having this turned off will permanently remove the check mark on the
Connect automatically option. Make sure your laptop is connected to your Wi-Fi before performing the steps below:

1. Open Settings > Network & Internet.
2. Click Wi-Fi.
3. In the right pane, click Change adapter options.
4. Double-click Wi-Fi to open Wi-Fi Status.
5. Double-click Wireless Properties.
6. Uncheck Connect automatically when this network is in range.
7. Click OK, and then Close.

Please let me know how it goes so I'll be able to assist you further if needed.

Regards.
