Bluetooth keyboard pairing problem (MX KEYS MINI)
Hello,
When pairing the device, the system and Bluetooth recognizes it, but NO WINDOW APPEARS to enter the pairing code.
I have tried it several times, but always with the same result. The device I want to connect is a MX KEEYS MINI keyboard. My system is Windows 10 LTSC 2019.
The technical service of the keyboard manufacturer (Logitech) has not been able to give me a solution.
Thank you in advance for your help, I remain at your disposal for any additional information that could be useful to you.
Windows News Widget will not show the news when clicked on
I have recently removed MS Edge from my PC because I have found it so intrusive, changing settings and software useage etc. But now my Taskbar MS news widget displays headlines and pix but will not show the news in detail when clicked on. Previouslt it complained it couldn't find Edge, now it just does nothing. How do I set the widget to use my current browser. I am proficient in tweaking the registry but have resisted that so far. Thanks.

How to convert a 32-bit application to 64-bit?
Looking at the report from Revo Uninstaller of applications on my windows laptop running Windows 10, I can see most of them are the 64-bit version but quite a few of them (including Auslogics Boostspeed 13, Adobe Digital Editions 4.5, Kaspersky, Dropbox to name a few) are showing as the 32-bit version.
I believe if these were the 64-bit version they will run better and faster.
Is there anything I can do to convert them from 32-bit to 64-bit?
Please advise.
Thanks!
Chris

Download problems (when trying to download large files)
Hello, I have a curious problem on my Windows 11 PC.
I am connected directly to the LAN via ethernet to a 900Mbps fiber connection.
However, when I try to download largish files (several hundred MB or several GB) from sites like zoom, wetransfer, facebook, I often get a generic "download error" message.
I've tried download the same files on Edge and Chrome, logging out and in, opening a private/incognito window, resetting the internet settings and running diagnostics. I've also checked the internet speed and latency.
The downloads often start okay, but stop after sometimes 30-40MB or maybe even getting to 60%. Sometimes I can click on resume, but the download begins from scratch. Sometimes, I will try again a few hours or a day later, and the file(s) *might* download to completion.
Other downloads (of small image files, say) or streaming of YouTube, Netflix, etc. never seems to have a problem.
I know for sure that it's a PC configuration problem because I tried the same downloads on a Windows 10 laptop, connected to the same router via WiFi, and all the files downloaded (albeit slightly more slowly) without a hitch.
Any ideas or suggestions on what I can do next?
Thanks,
Gary
