    Question about 2FA

    TAP doesn’t require knowing the end users M365 password. Adding a new TOTP phone is going to require you to know the end users password. TAP is more secure and just as easy to setup as any rouge phone.

    Anyone ever have a touchpad "spontaneously die" only for pointer movement, and when not in use?

    Sounds normal to me. I’ve seen plenty of touch pads that died intermittently. Replace it is probably the only fix. It can also be a motherboard issue.

    Is Office 2013 still downloadable from Microsoft in 2024 ?

    And everything you said was said about Discount Mountain. DM operated for years and Microsoft allowed it, until they didn’t. It’s a grey market source not an authorized retailer.

    Is Office 2013 still downloadable from Microsoft in 2024 ?

    So long as you and they understand that Microsoft at any random moment can throw StackSocial under the bus and suddenly deactivate your software. Microsoft has done that before. Remember discount mountain? It seems to be the unwritten policy to allow such quasi-piracy for a time and then end...

    Lenovo boot

    Honestly that looks like a hardware issue. As mentioned above the system is in PXE mode so it maybe trying to boot off the network. Turn off PXE boot and make sure your boot order is correct. Disable secure and or fastboot options.

    [REQUEST] Transplanting XP HDD to Different System

    Macrium Reflect can inject generic drivers onto a system so that it will boot up. I think it still works on Xp. But if all he is doing is burning DVDs then get a linux distribution on it.

    NVMe M.2 drives - do most mobos account for the different lengths?

    Oh and if it isn’t obvious the numbers 2280, 2242, etc are just the dimensions of the card. 22mm x 80mm for 2280. Not counting the area for the interface slot.

    Bitlocker Status Out of the Box for Win11 Pro?

    And you have been seeing it. For the past decade Microsoft has been slowly introducing Bitlocker as a default enabled service. Windows 11 upped the ante by requiring TPM 2.0 and defaulting the use of Microsoft accounts. I’d lay good money that default settings in Windows 11 24H2 will have...

    Bitlocker Status Out of the Box for Win11 Pro?

    All true but some rumors have more weight than others. Regulatory bodies are likely to force this and Microsoft not wanting to have mixed support models will just make it happen on all product lines.
