Hi Dave! I sent an audio file to my Mom and she said she can’t play it. It’s in “WAV” format. I’m on a Windows 11 PC, she’s on an older Mac. How can I convert the file to “MP3” so she can listen to it?
I get a lot of update notifications from Web sites through Microsoft Edge on my PC. I don’t mind them, but I do mind the sound they make. Is there a way to “mute” Edge notifications without turning them off?
My computer still shows up on our internal network with the name of the previous person who was using it, which is confusing to my colleagues and annoying to me. How can I change the name of my Windows PC?
My brother was teasing me the other day that there’s a “hidden” start menu in Windows 11 and saying he uses it a lot more than the regular Start Menu. Is he just pulling my leg or is there really a hidden start menu in Windows?
I just got a new game that I really enjoy, but there’s no way to stop the annoying soundtrack music. Since I sometimes play at work, I really need to be able to automatically mute the app, even though I want all my other apps to work normally. Is there a way to mute one program in Windows 11 but leave the other apps and programs working normally?
How can I make my PC open my email program, my weather forecast program, and my Calendar program at designated places on the screen at startup? I’m running Windows 11.
I have a hard time staying focused on an individual task so I set out 30 minute intervals during which I won’t do anything else. Is there a way to manage this on my new Windows 11 laptop? I’d prefer not to purchase an additional app if possible…
My browser of choice is Google Chrome on my PC, but my little brother has changed my theme so new tabs appear with a pinup model photo. Not my preference! How can I fix it or replace the image with something more appropriate or more to my own tastes? I’m running Windows 11 if that matters.
