I’m becoming convinced that Microsoft’s rumored ‘handheld mode’ for Windows 11 is coming to supercharge gaming portables.

This was a baffling mistake in the first place, compounded by the length of time it took Google to resolve the problem.

Recall is still MIA, but those with AMD or Intel CPUs in their Copilot+ PC are finally catching up with the functionality available on Snapdragon machines.

The error screen known as the BSOD is undergoing a radical change, and while it’s a nice idea, I fear it could confuse more people than it helps.

Microsoft just blocked one workaround to install Windows 11 with a local account, and you can bet other fudges will be on the chopping block, too.

Microsoft wants to clarify exactly what’s happening in terms of new features coming to its desktop OS with a new Windows Roadmap portal.

The Asus ROG Astral LC RTX 5090 OC Edition has a ridiculously long name, but it’s not as ridiculous as the price this GPU now commands (or rather, fails to command).

Can’t install a BIOS update for your Lenovo laptop? Blame Microsoft’s latest patch for Windows 11 – but fortunately the fix is simple enough.

Windows 11 glitch that made printers seem like they’re possessed is one of the strangest bugs I’ve even known – but it’s been banished now.

Use Windows 11’s Game Bar? You’ll likely appreciate its new design that offers a cleaner, neater look, and a tweak for gaming handhelds.

Although the new PC spec cards are lacking a key feature – the FAQ giving tailored advice – but hopefully that’ll be inbound soon.

Find Windows 11’s search to be terribly slow and clunky? I know I do, and sadly, I’m going to miss out on Microsoft’s big revamp for the functionality.

Zotac is the latest graphics card maker to hike RTX 5090 pricing to eye-watering levels, as Nvidia Blackwell GPU misery continues.

Rumor has it that Microsoft has started work on Windows 11 25H2, and it might be less buggy than 24H2. Although that wouldn't be difficult...

Don’t have a dedicated Copilot key? You might be pleased to learn that Microsoft could bring back the Windows 11 keyboard shortcut that served as its substitute.

Rumors are piling up suggesting the RTX 5060 Ti arrives in mid-April, followed by the 5060 in May - but can Nvidia muster enough stock to take on AMD’s RX 9060?

AMD is seriously outgunning Nvidia, restocking way more RX 9070 GPUs compared to RTX 5000 models, a fresh rumor insists.

Windows 11 is getting a speed boost when dealing with bulky ZIPs – but this is more about fixing poor performance than providing super-snappy unzipping.

Is Nvidia now caught between the need to fight off AMD, yet ensure enough launch stock for RTX 5060 models?

Did you miss Copilot in Windows 11? Well, this could be good news or bad news: Microsoft has fixed the bug that removed the AI app.

Microsoft’s sending out emails to push Windows 10 users to upgrade to Windows 11, while promoting OneDrive (again) and the idea of buying a new PC (again).

Windows 11’s Settings app seemingly continues its ultra-slow digestion of the Control Panel, with mouse options apparently next on the menu.

This much better version of voice commands remains in testing, but when it comes to release, hopefully it’ll be available for all Copilot+ PCs, not just Arm-based laptops.

AMD appears to have leapt to an eye-opening sales share of 45% in Japan, according to info from a press event held by Team Red.
