When they talked re Teams and Discord, I thought of a meme. Windows will just be Edge in 100 years. All the apps will be web apps. Someone may have made that meme already.

Thankfully Windows didn't force Onedrive on me. I've preferred saving files locally. For my cloud files, I've mainly used Dropbox and Google drive.

I hope Windows will focus on user experience.

My brother-in-law passed away a few months ago and we recently found his laptop.

My wife and I would really like to check it for personal documents/photos before a format and giving to our kids.

It's Windows 11, asking for a pin and linked to an MS account.

I've already tried booting Ubuntu from USB but it's encrypted.

I'm assuming I need to contact MS Australia to get access, but the Google results are pretty all over place.

Would really love some guidance from the community.

Based on personal experience.

Used Lunacy via the MS Store. It started getting sluggish so I asked the devs what to do and they recommended I use the website to procure the application...

Hi all,

I've got a bit of a spam issue that isn't solved by either keyword or actual spam filter. The problem is that I'm in China and mass email marketing here is acceptable for some reason, so local spam filters don't catch the perps, and international ones are useless based on the language.

And since I'm in a customer/supplier facing role, quite a few genuine mails use the same keywords as the spammers, so that doesn't work to fix my problem.

However, the mails are usually sent to hundreds of people at once, all with their mail addresses in plain view in CC.

So I'd just like to set up a filter to send mails with >100 recipients or something like that straight to trash, but can't seem to find it in the outlook rule settings.

Does anyone know of a useful workaround?

Thanks!
