Can anyone help me how can I turn off the heating on my Windows 11 machine? Thanks.

The only other explanation I can think of is having a Bitcoin miner installed called System Idle Process.

I don't know when was the last time I heard the fan was stopped, not in the past few days. (Yes, I tried to turn it off and on again.)

But don't worry, the company that is unable to correctly implement a toggle switch assures us that they definitely implemented this new immensely complex piece of technology nobody asked for directly in the operating system in a way that is secure and under no circumstances puts anyone in danger in ways security researchers said it will.

Windows senior product manager Brandon LeBlanc says, "This will be fixed in an upcoming update."

Verifying shim SBAT data failed: Security Policy Violation

It seems that with the recent Windows Update, for systems that have dual-boot is not letting grub start, showing the message: Verifying shim SBAT data failed: Security Policy Violation. Does anyone...

Support-Ende von Windows 10 soll für gigantischen Müllberg sorgen

Am 14. Oktober 2025 wird der Support von Windows 10 eingestellt. Das könnte dazu führen, dass rund 240 Millionen PCs als Elektroschrott auf einer Mülldeponie landen, wie Analyseunternehmen Canalys befürchtet. Wären alles diese Geräte aufeinandergestapelte Laptops, wäre der Stapel in etwa 4.080 Kilometer hoch. Das sind rund 600 Kilometer mehr als der Durchmesser des Mondes.

Support-Ende von Windows 10 soll für gigantischen Müllberg sorgen

Analyst*innen von Canalys warnen, dass 240 Millionen PCs durch das Supportende obsolet werden. Viele davon landen im Müll.

It's hard for me to emphasize just how much #Windows 11 is just a nasty lead paint coat over Windows 10. Still, I'll present you this nugget for your consideration: behind every round corner Windows 11 contextual menu, there's your good old square corner Windows 10 contextual menu with more options.

It isn't hidden, there's a contextual menu entry just to bring up the old menu! 🤯
