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

PS *I* am the IT person at our group. I have admin access to the router and the PC, of course.

Windows Explorer Is SLOW To Search For Folders

Windows Explorer Is SLOW To Search For Folders when I try to SAVE any type of file. The Scroll Bar at left side keeps jumping up & down, then the cursor begins to spin & spin as if in a freeze mode. Finally, all of these ODD Actions STOP & CALM DOWN. Then it
FINALLY allows me to click & select the Folder I need to get into. This is STRANGE. Can you explain WHY this is happening ?? YES
-- I do use AUGLOGICS Boost Speed 13 (UPDATED) to do Maintenance & CleanUp on my Laptop (Windows 7), but still this problem does NOT want to go away. YES -- I did INDEXING Function several times on my Laptop, but still no improvement. Do You Have ANY
Suggestions for me ?? Other than to do a Complete Factory RESET of My Laptop ??

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.

Perte souris et pavé tactile sur ASUS R702U

Bonjour,
A l'occasion d'une mise à jour des drivers, (Windows 10) la procédure s'est bloquée.
j'ai dû arrêter mon portable (CTRL ALT DEL).
Au redémarrage plus de possibilité de valider une action.
Plus de pavé tactile, plus de souris !
Comment pouvoir ré-utiliser mon portable ?
Je vous envoie cette question de mon poste fixe
Comment choisir une langue de contact par défaut; mon anglais est scolaire et ancien.
Merci de votre réponse.
Cordialement.

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
