Let me know what you guys think about these tweaks down below.
Absolutely amazing. Thanks a lot for your efforts. Really worth apprecating.
Hi Brian. Good stuff. Wondering if there's a wy to restore the Windows 10 Tile start menu and have it fuul screen, and all its functionallity, like it was in windows 10.
Just started the vid, but I removed the search altogether in taskbar settings. The windows button/start menu still uses search if needed. And you can stop the highlights within search settings. Though, I only found that out just now, LOL. Just updated my win10 to win11 on Friday. Great vid! Will probably turn off the web search since that is annoying.
The biggest issue for me was the context menu. I hate the simplified version and all the dang pictures. Why did they use pictures when everyone is going to be looking for words instead. SMH my head. Found a registry fix in another video.
Just love these "Zap the annoyances of 11" videos, Brian. Thanks for the info.
Glad you like them!
Thanks Brian, finally got rid of that pesky search.
And thanks for the OME key site,everywhere else iv'e looked seem dodgy...
Cheers Mate...
Glad to help
Hey Brian! Regarding the first tweak, there's actually a toggle for that in search permissions >> more settings>>show search highlights
You've just made Win-11 a more attractive option these tweeks are great, I many upgrade to Win-11 because of these changes, Thanks for the work
Great to hear!
In the "Get Back Win10 Ribbon UI in Win11" section you pasted this key: {e2bf9676-5f8f-435c-97eb-11607a5bedf7} but in video at the same time the screen said "Add key" and it showed this: {86calaa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}. Which one is it?
When you added the key to disable search box suggestions, you said to leave the key value at 0 to disable it. Given that the key is called DisableSearchBoxSuggestions, it seems like the value should be a 1 to do the disable.
Yeah, my mistake
Nice tweaks Bri.
As always, great stuff. Thanks loads.
Nice... Unless i did something wrong, i downloaded the regedit key for changing the right click to standard windows 10, and activated the key... My computer was displaying a black screen.
I had to use alt clt del to get the task manager up, go to running services, and open location of one of the files to get file explorer to open. Then go to the download and select the same regedit and use the disable key. Logged out and back into windows and i could again see the ui... From there i was able to do a windows restore from right before i made this change... What in the world happened!?!
The reason i had to do a restore is because my folder options were mostly disabled, definitely not helpful.
Hi Brian. Cracking video. Regarding the Key to enable the W10 File Explorer ribbon. It didn't work for me. Nothing happened ever after a restart. The only difference I can see is I've got the update for 22H2 that brings the tabs in explorer. In your video you didn't have the tabs (as yet). Can you shed any light please? It would be nice to have the old ribbon back. Thanks. Donald.
Download registry files on my site Donald
Just a opinion here, you should show backing up the registries before making changes
Brian - You and your team are like some kind of Windows angels. I guess that with bing search also works in Windows 10 ? I will try. Thanks for always good videos!
Yes it works mate
I use the search substitute provided with power toys. You get a large on screen area and as the type ahead is very fast immediately offering what search engine you want to use. It's great !
Great tip!
Thanks for the video but I already knew these tweaks so not much new to me in this video but thanks anyway.
Good to hear!
Brian! one thing Microsoft removed in the latest feature update was 'Folders' I seen you add the Ribbon but could you show a fix that works for'
Proper in order folders back? I added strings to put them back but.. they are not in the order, we've all been accustom to over the years 👍🖖
see what i can do
@@Britec09 Can you please make a video how to remove windows defender completely from windows 11/10?
Thanks again Brian, every one a gem!
My pleasure!
Days ago it says that I could upgrade to Windows 11 22H2 but today it just says "Coming soon: Windows 11, version 22H2" and takes me to a page that says about Safeguard holds affecting your device. Do I need to do something? I'm a fairly new PC owner and no idea what I can do? Just wait until it's offered back?🤔
Thanks Bri. Love your videos as always❤️
Windows seems to be continuing its journey south towards self destruct. The fight between MS and it's customers seems to be getting worse?
For the gamers out there sick of the Windows BS, have you considered reviewing SteamOS? It is a fully functional desktop OS (running KDE as DE) but also runs 95%+ of steam games with no issues. A perfect opportunity to step away from Windows for gamers?
I think once Linux works with all games, a lot of people will jump ship
@@Britec09 Agreed.
I have enjoyed your presentations over the years and often adopt your tweaks and follow your advice. However, your tweak to reestablish Windows 10 Ribbon UI in Windows 11 did not work for me. I am using Windows 11 Pro 22H2. Any further advice will be very much appreciated. Thank you.
Weird...... Didn't have to do anything. Apparently I've disabled the features in a different way, but I couldn't tell you how. Furthermore I saw that you're still on an old explorer window with no tabs. Does that make a difference?
Hi Brian. Thanks for reply. As u suggeted , it's worked after I imported the ey from your site, however when I looked in my registry it hasn't added the key there as per your video. Are they both different. WhenI followed your instruction on the video, it idn't work, but importing the "ribbon - enable" key has worked. :)
Hi Brian have considered making a video about the best Ethernet controller/adapter settings for in windows 11? and best settings for gaming.
I see what I can do
@@Britec09 Thanks Brian 👍😀
Hi, Britec09. I went to CD Key Sales website to buy a Windows 11 Pro key. But I couldn't find the PC software section. Only games are listed. Could you give me the proper link to where the software is located? Thanks.
Hey Brian How to Optimize Windows 11 and Fast Responsive Tasks??

Some great tweaks here. Might have to look at making these as a script file just encase windows updates re enable them.

Because you are special
@@Britec09 Im special or your Special ?

The other issue i have found after this up date is,when i go to sign in say to say ebay or Twitter ect a banner comes up on the right saying "Sign in with google"Use your google account to sign into......but i use Firefox and i don't save pass words...or could this be a virus making out it's google..i have run Malwarebytes and all clear...
Thanks Brian. Love your stuff.
Question: could it be time for an upgrade to your mic? For some reason the mic quality seems really low. Anyway, just trying to help you mate.
Take care.
I have good mic, this mic is for another 2 weeks until I have my studio redecorated
1k liked. Nice vid 👍
Tks bro !
I tried Windows 11 and hate UI or what they call UX. It drives me nuts that I deleted Windows 11 for Windows 10 and easily patched it and it ok.
The thumbnail is awesome, it is frustrating to use all these windows features.
Thanks

How to disable efficiency mode?? it makes everything so laggy

Starting my Windows 11 DELL i3511, 'Windows Update' says, '2022-10 Cumulative Update ... 22H2 x64 .... available'. Will that get confused with a user's manual regitry changes?
this is the best video ever
Will the search methods work on Windows 10 as well ?
Should do
hi I bought a pc a week ago (23/december/2022) it came with windows 11 pro, and since that time wn 11 has been giving me problems such as apps freezing, blue screen and many more. so I install windows 10 , so what I want to know is should I disable TPM 2.0 since now I am using wn 10? please advise
Brother recently my games have started to crash very often is this because of windows 11 , should i move to 10? I jave rtx 3060 and ryzen 7
Many thanksgot a new subscriber here, I hate win 11 i have no end of problems, do you have a fix for not having to sign in on start up & stop it requesting me to set up a pin, I just want it to start up & i can get on with working, Its taken me sometime to stop it asking me to sign in twice after a update, i think ive managded to disable updates, but would be interested in you option regards Brian
When we open This PC, above devices and drivers, there is Folders section that contain Desktop, docouments, downloads etc. When i update to 22h2 the Folders section is gone. Can you tell me how to show the Folders section again?

What happened to your microphone ?

windows restore is pants
that string value Brian that supposed bring back the old ribbon does not work on my versh, the same as yours, tried for ages to rectify .... the only thing that does work is a piece of software called Startallback
nope, it does work, you see me do it. Try registry files on my website, works 100%
could be something to do with my system aving no TPM?? as I have said, I've known about this for ages and it never worked, Oh well never mind, take care

What's the widget in the top right of the desktop?

Anything to Disable the Caps Lock and Num Lock Indicator in Win 11
Tired of this ???
I make a video
Sir, im facing issue with thumbnails of videos in win 10 (its active and up to date)
pictures are showing its thumbnails but videos are not longer showing it. I did everything like default view in file options ( show thumbnails), erasing of temp cache , used vlc ,mpc ,windows media player but nothing is working to show thumbnails. googled solutions and implemented them But issue still persist. Apart from this issue windows other features are working perfectly.
can you make a video on this issue. I would be grateful to you.. Waiting for your video at this topic ,And Thanks you in advance. :)
Try Media Preview Configuration.
@@PhD63 its on default settings, I tried almost everything that is available on internet.
@@LYFB Try installing K-lite mega codec pack. It has thumbnail generation for all types of videos, in addition to that, it has a built-in video player MPC-HC, you can opt in to install.
maybe this one would work, this one is from 21H2 {e2bf9676-5f8f-435c-97eb-11607a5bedf7}
Or you can just install LTSC and call it a day.
Could you please unban me. Just wanted to ask not insult. I'm sorry if Blokey felt insulted but I just wanted to ask him. I won't do it again.
'Disable These Windows Features Nobody Needs'... Maybe you should add ..for windows 11' so we dont waste our time.
what's happened to your microphone?
Answered that already in the comments
