I'm getting some Windows Update errors (0x80244019 and 0x8007139f) which I'm 99% certain are caused by an incomplete download of the update. Updating from Creators Update (RS2) to Fall Creators Update (RS3). I need it for some UWP API features. Prefer not to reset the device if I don't have...

IMO this will do more harm than good. Releasing an unfinished, old, outdated product that doesn't even run on new hardware? Yes, it might be free, and yes, open source community may work on it and improve it. But do you really want this to be anyone's first interaction with WP? It got a ton of...

Re: Petitioning to make Microsoft make Windows Phone open source At that point, why not use Android? Either way, it won't be "true WP" given the large number of components that almost certainly can't be open-sourced, and if you just wanted something that looks and feels like WP, you'd be better...

Re: Petitioning to make Microsoft make Windows Phone open source Yes. The NT base doesn't really matter a lot - but here's the thing, you're not getting an open-source OS in that case. Silverlight could absolutely go open-source, but what would people do with that? The shell used on WP8 could...

Re: Petitioning to make Microsoft make Windows Phone open source Far, far too much code is used in Windows. You have to remember that WP8 was based on Windows NT, which backs every modern version of Windows on every device. Name any component that makes up the OS, and unless it's front-end...

Filed September 2015... a month before Band 2 launched. Doesn't look like it matches up with anything that would fit in a Band form factor, especially considering the leaked Band 3 was so similar to Band 2. Could possibly be something more like the one shown in their latest Productivity...

Just checked today, and all the art is back! Artist bios still gone - not sure if those are gone for good with music pass end, but I thought they were loaded from another site with the art, and they were there after shutdown (only disappeared recently) so not sure.

You checked the exact model (something like 15-xxxx, or alternatively the product number, drop either number into HP.com search) of the Envy you're looking at? There are multiple models... so be sure you looked at the right service manual. They're fairly similar for most part, but there may be...

There's this weird solution I've found for that error - try this first. Restart the PC. During boot, go to the boot menu (boot devices), whatever it's called on your system. Usually it'll be accessed by pressing Esc, F8, F9, or F10, while the manufacturer's logo is on the screen. Then choose...

Are you absolutely sure your PC meets all other requirements for MR? If your PC is old enough to have PCI and not PCIe (which leads me to believe it's 6+ years old) then you absolutely need to check that everything else is supported first. Does the Mixed Reality Portal app only show issues...

Official requirements show that USB 3.0 is required - USB 2.0 won't work at all. You likely won't get past the setup screen, since it seems to check for the presence of a USB 3.0 controller before letting you in. USB 2.0 will also not provide enough power for the headset - 500mA vs USB 3.0's...

Both GPUs are always on when they are connected, and both will be used, depending on open apps. You can open Task Manager to see what GPU each app is using. Right-click taskbar, right-click Start button, Win+X, Ctrl+Alt+Del, or just Ctrl+Shift+Esc. Open the full Task Manager by clicking More...

Yeah it's missing for some. Interestingly it's loading but then quickly disappearing - usually it flashes for a sec for me, then goes to the generic icon. The colour (on the background) remains. Artists bios are also missing - the icon for it also flashes briefly but then disappears. I'm...

Editing properties is unavailable once they've uploaded to OneDrive. Move to local storage, wait for Groove to pick up the move, edit info, then move it back to OneDrive music folder. No idea why it's like this, but at least it works. You can also edit most of the metadata from File Explorer -...

Yep, back up for me now!
