    Bitlocker "PIN on restart" not prompting after patch Tuesday

    There's a useful discussion at Bitlocker Screen is Orange with White Lines The suggested fix -- suspend bitlocker and execute bfsvc (see above) -- worked for me. I did not need to uninstall and reinstall any patches. I'd guessed that the problem screen was built into the BIOS, but apparent...

    Bitlocker "PIN on restart" not prompting after patch Tuesday

    I've used bitlocker's "enter PIN on restart" option for over a year. Originally I used gpedit to enable the option, and with the Surface 2 Pro I must have a keyboard attached to enter the PIN. Last night I installed patch Tuesday patches, including 3172729. This morning, when I powered on the...

    Surface wakes up after shut down in dock

    FWIW On the surface 2 I believe that after plugging in USB devices to the dock, the thing is more likely to "have insomnia". Mine should go from "light sleep" to "hibernate" after four hours, but I'll see the event Wake Source: Device -Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0100...

    OneNote App password issue

    I believe that access to password protected sections is only available if you pay for desktop One Note bundled with the Office suite ... I suspect web page access could be used as an awkward work around.

    The App stopped working. I bought the mouse four or five months ago. Pretty much use it daily. Installed the app after purchase. It worked then. Used it once or twice after installing it. Tried it a few minutes ago and it shows the 1, 2, 3 Retry window from the thread starter. The mouse...

    Windows 8.1 spring update BUGS.

    I'm annoyed several times a day by keyboard invocation of the modern browser. I have the habit of typing [window logo], 'e', 'x', [enter] to bring up the modern browser. After the upgrade I get the desktop version more often than the modern version. I think the modern version is used after...

    SP2 won't automatically hibernate on battery

    After sleeping, mine wakes up, does some busy work, then hibernates. Early this morning it logged "Wake Source: S4 Doze to Hibernate" which I assume is the hybrid sleep transition. At the same time of day, on my gateway server, I see it got a DHCP address, contacted live.com...

    Microsoft Dock Results

    My first dock failed after three or four days. My second has been going for several weeks. The exchange process at the microsoft store was slow and annoying. I want to avoid shopping there in the future. The dock makes three connections, power, video, and USB. I think of it as a USB hub...
