I’m all about simplicity and need a really simple text editor for my PC. I have Microsoft Word, I know about Google Docs, but I want to be able to focus on my words, not the toolbars, ribbons and features. What do you recommend?
I’d really love to be able to receive phone notifications and text messages from my Android phone directly on my PC. Is there some way to do that, ideally without third-party apps?
My Dad gave me a pair of hand-me-down Apple AirPods, and I’d like to use them with my PC. But I run Windows, not MacOS. Can I still pair and use the AirPods in Win11?
I take a lot of screenshots and screen captures for the Windows 11 documentation I develop. Easy to do, but every single time I have to open Snipping Tool and save the image. Is there a way that my screenshots can automatically just save as image files so I can edit them all afterwards?
I have a new Windows 11 computer that I share with my son. He tends to be quite curious about the Internet and I worry the system will end up being infected with malware. Worse, I fear ransomware attacks as it also contains lots of important work files. How can I protect my Win11 system from ransomware?
My buddy sent me a movie file that’s in a format my PC can’t seem to figure out. It’s “MKV” and Windows Media Player launches, but won’t actually show me the movie. How can I watch it?
I used to really love the lively puzzle game “Plants vs. Zombies” on my old Windows PC, but haven’t played in a while. Is there a free version of the classic game for Windows 11?
I am enjoying learning about the new features of Windows 11 (which I mostly like) and particularly like the widget window. Except it’s tracking the wrong sports team. I’m a die-hard Raiders fan! How do I switch the sports widget to show me Raiders scores?
