Backing up files before Windows 10 reinstall

Check to see that all critical and necessary files are completely intact and functional like SFC /Scannow, and any other method you know of, so that when I go to re-install Windows 10 it will go smoothly and without a hitch! An example is that I can no longer use the pin I assigned to windows it just stopped working one day. And I've always had problems with the startup files from all versions of windows. Like my 1st install of windows 10 went bad because of the User.dat files getting corrupted, I couldn't repair windows, and I doubt that I could run restore and it would work. And I don't want to install windows 10 until I know it's going to run correctly.
I do nothing to corrupt files but they always seem to get screwed up by the operating system.


Thanks, L8R

Bluetooth devices disconnect after some time on Surface Pro 6

Hello

I have a persistent problem with my Surface devices. After a machine has not been out of use for some time, but is running, my bluetooth devices disconnect and I have to stop and restart bluetooth to make them operable. I have also had a problem where my network connection to the internet is disabled and I cannot see any WI-FI access points - I then have to reboot to overcome the problem.

The issues started about six months ago.

I have done the obvious things - applied the latest Windows 11 updates and checked that drivers are up-to-date?

I would appreciate knwing if there is a solutions, thanks.

Operating system is not presently configured to run this application

After running Bootspeed for the first time in a long time, I get the error message, "The operating system is not presently configured to run this application." It affects my Bluetooth, plus it is annoying to have the error message popup on my screen every five minutes. Do you recommend that I go to "Restore Points"? I have an early February date available.

Windows 11, PC Sleeps when it shouldn't

My W11 (Home edition) desktop PC has the following settings

'Power mode' set to 'Best performance' and

'When plugged in, put my device to sleep after' set to 'Never'.

Despite this, the PC goes to sleep after a few minutes of being idle, which in turn kills RDP sessions which I do not want to happen.

There must be other settings somewhere which are overriding the 'Never' setting. Please help me understand what they are and how to change them.

Thank you and best regards

Sudden switch to No Error Mode

I am using a ASUS N73S system with W10-64, Windows standard firewall and Kaspersky antivirus. All softwares are update and everything runs fine.
Working with IExplorer and Edge in parallel, suddenly the screen turns black and the system is blocked during 3 or 4 seconds, then the screen pops up again and the system reactivates in Without Error Mode. I have to reboot and the system reactivate in Normal Mode. This looks like a stability problem, but maybe a compatibility case between edge and ie.
Thank you to help me

How to clear out/remove COM ports that are in use?

I've observed an issue that shows up on Wlndow 7 and Window 11... Both are of the Professional types...

I use many computer programs and they use a lot of hardware items too... For one example I have a private observatory, and my telescope movements and its Dome movements "plus more" convert a USB slots into a multible differenet COM port uses in that busy operations... Because of this need,,, USB slots are often found jumping around a lot within their ID numbers... My trouble is both of these softwares seem to like to collect COM? into a "InUse" classification which cause port numbers to be used up and remain behind unnecessarily... Some softwares don't like high Port Number too... I am trying to find a way to clear them OUT... It appears CCLEANER or Auslogic routines don't have a way to clearn these items out... I just spent a few hours tring to find a way to clean them... No luck so far! Maybe you can point me to something I missed in my license copy of Auslogics BoostSpeed 14... I have attach a image of the pathway to where this issue shows up to help you see what I see... This should be a garbage cleaning item that would be very automatic for end users... Because of this issue, COM port use get into trouble when they get left behind... I have looked a lot into the device manager within Windows whatever with a desire to find a cleaning button... But no such luck...

So, I am looking for a way to clear them off of several computers... I did not even see a manual method... Hum....

It appears when they are not used, they don't seem to fade away on their own... "Not nice!" I tried to re-boot and other efforts without success... I spent hours today trying to find a way... "I am Stuck!" I now think this is a very nasty issue not figure out by Windows for many generations of their softwares... I have had over the years operational issues in setup of my observatory, and this is the reason why... "I need a fix!" Mayber there is a button somewhere that need pushing? I will be reading my books nest...

Some software requires exact knowledge of how the port is define wtih its number and they don't like changeds, or the software comes up with an error message or merely gets locks up... Sometimes the third party software merely jump to another number and then things sort-of keeps on working... All this does is builds up surplus InUse COM port numbers...

Help! As I used my first question ever on your site... Please put a smile on my face by giving a easy answer that will solve this trouble...

Thanks

Cannot use keyboard Up and Down arrows in Windows Clipboard History since today.

I have been using windows clipboard daily as a part of my routine, always used to copy my contents using that. But now when i use Windows+V the Clipboard manager pops up left or right of the screen and when i use arrow keys chrome is scrolling(Copying contents to chrome).
Earlier i selected the copied contents using arrow keys and used Enter key to enter the data, Now its not working, i need to use mouse every single time.

BoostSpeed tool to clean roaming folder

I have 70 GB of data on my c:/user/AppData/Roaming folder. I have a space issue because my Win11 OS is insalled on a M.2 SSD drive with 120GB. I've moved the My Documents folders to a standard 2TB drive and told windows to install all apps on the large drive. I would like to keep the OS boot disk limited to windows only and make my boot quick!

Any tools in Auslogic that would address cleaning up my /appdata/Roaming data?

Thanks for your help.
