Windows Startup new item

A text box appears "A new item was added to Windows" (or something like this). When I click on Inspect, I get a long list of items which baffles me. It would help if text box, or item list, would identify the new item because I can't figure it out. Thanks.

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
Phil Parkin

Parallels Desktop 18 Compatible with BoostSpeed?

I have an Apple iMac running macOS Monterey v12.4 with Parallels Desktop 18 and Windows 10.
I’d like to know, can BoostSpeed 12 run in this Virtual Machine environment without any issues?

PS: BoostSpeed 12 is not installed in the Virtual Machine environment yet. I’m simply trying to find out if it has been tested and will work before installing it on my iMac with Parallels Desktop 18.

How to fix game error code 0xC0000005?

I keep getting an error code that says 0xC0000005 (0x0) N whenever i try and boot up the application and I'm not sure what it means or how to fix it. It tells me to scan and repair the application but that won't work either. I tried placing the file but it wouldn't let me.
