This was already asked, please use the search function.

I'll go ahead and lock this thread.

And the last post about it was 10 years ago, no information anywhere in sight about the actual problem, and DenverCoder9 just left the topic with a simple "oh I figured it out" WHAT DID YOU SEE?!

And hours before me, too!

Gonna be honest, I didn't even check the comments, I was browsing in the car before work.

FUCK the ARCH LINUX FORUM MAINTAINERS, IN PARTICULAR, for this.

[-] vicfic@iusearchlinux.fyi 6 points 11 months ago

Well, you could've just done a Google search.

[-] KISSmyOS@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Just read the wiki!

[-] De_Narm@lemmy.world 123 points 11 months ago

That description is just pure nostalgia, I miss old message boards.

[-] alignedchaos@sh.itjust.works 21 points 11 months ago

Great news! You can have that experience today on Google’s or Microsoft’s community & product forums. It’s the default response!

[-] vicfic@iusearchlinux.fyi 7 points 11 months ago

I still encounter the same thing in some open-source discord servers.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

They're nostalgic to me too but I definitely don't miss them

Looking at you, Microsoft Windows support team. At least some random blog post from 10 years ago probably has the answer.

Unless the only comment is "Solved it, nevermind.", then you know you're screwed.

XKCD for everything.

But have you tried restarting your computer and reinstalling all drivers?

[-] Pazuzu@midwest.social 7 points 11 months ago

bruh give us an exact list of every program you have installed and hardware in your pc and log file from your last 20 used programs before we'll even read your question. no we don't know how any of that is relevant, but we can pretend to be smarter than you by asking for it

[-] KISSmyOS@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Do sfc /scannow, and Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image.
If that doesn't help, reinstall Windows.

[-] flicker@kbin.social 29 points 11 months ago

What a legend.

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 64 points 11 months ago

I see you’ve read their sig.

I can be your angel or your devil mom how do I turn off dictation it just keeps wait is this

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 21 points 11 months ago

I too could have 40k posts when I made those kinds of comments

[-] Blastasaurus@lemm.ee 20 points 11 months ago

Understandable, have a nice day.
