Samsung Internet now has a desktop app for Windows, available on the Microsoft Store as a free download. And you’ll be glad to know that it’s available for all x64 version Windows 10 and 11-powered desktop and laptop machines, Samsung or otherwise.
Samsung Internet does have a few advantages of its own, however, such as a built in ad-blocker (which must be turned on manually) and the ability to force dark mode on websites, even those that don’t natively support it. Samsung Internet also features native picture-in-picture support.
At this time Samsung Internet for Windows does appear to have some limitations, which isn’t too surprising for this launch. Reportedly syncing browser data between phone and PC is limited to search history, bookmarks, saved pages and open tabs, while password syncing is currently unavailable.
While support for extensions is built in, it appears to be non-functional at this early stage with the install button greyed out on all add-ons. Users have reported underwhelming performance on the browser, with laggy scrolling, and some UI elements appear in Korean.
There’s little doubt that these issues will be addressed by Samsung in the future. However, the Samsung Internet browser still has a ways to go on both mobile and desktop before it can truly compete with Google Chrome.
Starting a global business podcast is a big undertaking. While you can sign up to create podcasts almost anywhere, you need the proper equipment and setup to be prepared to make your podcast great. You also need to know some great marketing techniques to boost your listeners and get your podcast in front of more people.
Building your digital presence is vital for a business, and a podcast will help you do so. Check out this guide with tips designed to help you create a global business podcast and be successful.
Marketing Matters
Are you prepared with the appropriate tools and requirements to market your podcast? Before you go to the hard work of creating a podcast and content, you need to make sure you can share the content. You can post your podcast to a favorite podcast site, but we also recommend you share it on your platforms.
You’re going to want to plug that podcast into your business through social media and your website. If you haven’t built a website, you need to do so. You can take a look at these top 10 web hosting services to help set you on the right track.
The success of your podcast depends on having marketing tools and putting them to use. Post podcasts on your site and share them on all of your social media. Share sneak peeks and tidbits to get people to listen!
Plan the Target Audience
While it would certainly be awesome if you could reach every person in the world, you need a more focused approach. This comes from establishing a target audience. Who is it that your podcast is going to be most effective for? What population do you hope to reach the most?
Use these details to specify a target audience and work from there. It’s acceptable for people outside the target audience to listen to the podcast. This just helps to set some parameters so you can create focused content that is geared towards your target audience. It should be part of your strategy.
Establish a Podcast Platform Account
Even with a website, you’re going to need an account for a podcast platform. You can do the research to choose one, or you can even see if your web host has an option. Before you settle on a podcast platform, make sure that it will be compatible with your feed, your website, and your sharing requirements.
There are a lot of different podcast platforms like Spotify, Stitcher, Audible, and more. We recommend you take the time to check into and compare the different options so that you can choose which one will work best for you.
Recording and Editing Equipment
Before you start recording, you’re going to need some equipment. What you invest in may depend on your budget. Even if you need to start with cheap basic supplies, you’re going to want some sound equipment to make your podcast great. We get it; not everyone can spend $10,000 to set up. But you can still invest in this podcast with some accessories.
A podcast microphone should be your first accessory outside of a phone or device to do the recording. Many people just use their laptops or tablets, but your recording devices are totally up to you. Using a separate microphone will help to provide better sound for your listeners.
Don’t forget the software to edit your podcast. Your device may already have something on it, but you can also consider premium software for a small fee.
Get Started!
Now, it’s time to record your first podcast to get started. It may take more than one try to get it right. It’s a good idea to write a basic script so that you aren’t left floundering while you’re live recording. Even if you just have an outline with some basic notes, this could help keep you on track during the recording process.
When you mess up, have an extended pause, or even stumble a little bit, these things can generally be fixed with editing. You can also hire someone for editing if that seems like a better choice.
Once your episode is recorded and edited, you can name it, give it a great description, and publish it on your podcast platform.
Now, take the time to promote it and source it to your website! The hard part is done. The rest of the gig just requires making consistent, quality content and knowing your marketing avenues. While it will take some time to build a following, your global business podcast will take off with hard work and consistency.
Microsoft recently integrated Windows Copilot into Windows 11, enabling you to manage various OS tasks. Bing Search comes with the Start Menu in Windows, providing information from the web in the Start menu when you search. If you find both Copilot and Bing Search in the Start Menu unnecessary, you can disable them.
Copilot in Windows 11 is an AI-powered intelligent assistant that helps you adjust Windows 11 settings and organize your Windows with Snap Assist. It saves you time and makes you more efficient. To open and use Copilot, click the Taskbar icon or press the Win + C key combination.
Unsurprisingly, Microsoft added Bing Search to the Windows 11 Start menu, like Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge. It allows you to search and find specific information from the start menu without opening a web browser.
If you don’t want to use Copilot AI and Bing Search in the Start Menu, you can disable both of them. There are various ways to do that. Windows 11 Settings helps you to a certain extent, and you must also make changes to the Group Policy.
How do I disable Windows 11 Copilot and Start Menu Bing Search?
1. Remove Copilot from the Taskbar
Click the Windows icon and select Settings.
Choose Personalization from the left pane and click on Taskbar from the right.
On the right, you will see Copilot Preview, and you will be able to turn it off right away from the dedicated switch.
After this, you won’t see the Copilot icon on your taskbar but you can still bring up the app using the Win + C shortcut.
2. Remove Copilot using the Group Policy Editor
Press the Windows key + R to start Run, type gpedit.msc, and press Enter.
Now, go to Administrative Templates>Windows Components and click on Windows Copilot.
Now, double-click the Turn Off Windows Copilot policy from the right pane, select Enable, then click Apply and OK.
Log off and log back in on your Windows machine to see the changes.
You might be tempted to click on Disable, but the policy is called Turn off Windows Copilot. So, if you want to disable Windows Copilot, you need to enable it, not disable it.
Of course, if you change your mind, you may track back the steps above to disable the policy and get back Windows Copilot.
3. Remove Bing Search from the Start menu
You may actually remove Bing from Windows 11 altogether, but that will imply changing a key in the Registry.
Extract the files to a folder and run the BloatNosy.exe app
Uncheck all checkboxes, and under Taskbar and Start Menu, watchfully select Disable Windows Copilot and Start Menu Bing Search
Click Apply, that’s it.
To restore these at any time, select the required options in the app and click Restore.
Web browsers and antiviruses may detect it as a virus, but it’s a false positive. Utilize the tool carefully and create a system restore point before making any changes to the system.
To summarize, to disable Windows Copilot, you can use the Taskbar settings or remove it from the Group Policy Editor. To remove Bing Search from the Start menu, you will have to edit the Registry.
Do you use Copilot and Bing Search in the Start Menu on Windows 11? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below
When it comes to trade shows and tech events, they don’t get much bigger than CES (Consumer Technology Association), and 2024 might be the most exciting iteration yet. Why? Well, with all the new developments in AI and VR/AR, we expect to see a lot of new cool devices that most certainly will use bleeding-edge tech and the latest advancements to transform our everyday experiences.
Dell and its gaming subsidiary, Alienware, are longtime CES participants, always at the forefront of Innovation Awards for incredible design and build quality. And for the 2024 tech event, thanks to our trusty source, we can glimpse what’s to come (spoiler: Alienware’s new monitors are straight from a gamer’s paradise!)
Dell’s new XPS lineup for 2024 gets Ultra CPUs
XPS is already a well-known family of laptops and a long-standing product recognized for its slim design and powerful internals. For 2024, Dell is going with much of the same, with significant performance upgrades for its XPS 13, XPS 14, and XPS 16 laptops.
The XPS 13 is focused on ultra-portability and performance, perfect for those looking for a small, premium laptop. For 2024, the 13-inch device gets a much-needed refresh, previously passed on because of the XPS 13 Plus launch.
The lineup’s middle ground is definitely the brand new XPS 14, Dell’s new take on the XPS 15, featuring the design language we already know and love. While downsized from 15 inches, the XPS 14 has a real shot of becoming the go-to in the XPS family, primarily thanks to the (not-so) recent popularity of 14-inch devices. Both XPS 13 and XPS 14 come with new Intel CPUs and Nvidia RTX graphics.
As expected, the new XPS 16 is the most powerful out of the bunch, most likely replacing the previous 17-inch XPS (has Apple started a new trend?). The laptop gets the iconic XPS design but with new Intel Core Ultra CPUs and RTX 40 series graphics. While the size doesn’t scream portability, the XPS 16 is aimed at professionals who can take advantage of all that power while on the move and still be able to use it as a desktop replacement. It’s also a fantastic choice for those who want to game, the size and thermals making it more than well-equipped for long-stress sessions.
Alienware goes all out on gaming, with a pinch of productivity
You can’t talk about gaming laptops without mentioning Alienware, and for 2024, the company is making some changes to its lineup, starting with the Alienware m16 R2. The updated device will feature Intel Core Ultra H processors and Nidia graphics, with a redesigned chassis and updated thermals to keep it cool through those long gaming sessions.
Maybe the most interesting thing is the addition of Stealth Mode, which seamlessly transitions from gaming to productivity. We’ve seen this feature before on Dell laptops, but Alienware’s decision to include it on gaming devices seems odd. Basically, you’ll be able to tone down the gaming features (RGB, display response time, CPU boost, fan speed, etc.) of your laptop with a quick shortcut and use it as a workstation. Stealth Mode is also configurable, so you’ll be able to choose the exact features to disable or enable.
This kind of feature makes sense for students or gamers who use a single device for all their workflows, keeping the laptop gamer-ish at home and not so obviously Alienware in class or at the office. Whether that’s enough or not it remains to be seen, but keep in mind that there is nothing stealthy about a 16-inch plus laptop.
This one’s a banger: Alienware x16 R2! Yes, Alienware’s most premium laptop also gets an upgrade. Besides the all-metal chassis, x16 R2 gets the new Intel Core Ultra CPUs and dedicated graphics. And don’t forget about the AlienFX lighting; if you want to stand out, this is your best choice.
Finally, the Alienware m18 R2, one of the biggest gaming laptops on the market, is getting upgraded with 14th Gen Intel Core processors and Nvidia RTX 40 Series graphics, making it the ultimate gaming machine for those looking for a huge screen that’s also portable (sort of).
According to our source, all the laptops will be available on January 11th.
Pro gaming with Pro monitors: Alienware accessories
Also on January 11th you’ll be able to get the new updated Alienware gaming monitors and a Pro bundle for those looking for a keyboard-mouse combo. The Alienware 27 360Hz Gaming Monitor features a QD-OLED display with QHD resolution, incredible response time and color coverage, and, as the name implies, a 360Hz refresh rate that makes it perfect for any fast-paced game. The always-present RGB lighting completes the package, alongside the side headphone mount and sturdy stand.
The updated Alienware 32 4K QD-OLED Gaming Monitor features a QD-OLED curved display with a 4K resolution, infinite contrast ratio, and Dolby Vision HDR. It’s perfect for those looking for immersion and pixel-perfect colors. It also comes with HDMI 2.1 FRL, which makes it fantastic for switching between PC and console gaming.
The Dell UltraSharp 40 Curved Thunderbolt Hub Monitor completes the monitor lineup. Yes, that’s right, a 40-inch 5K monitor that takes gaming and productivity to a whole new level. While the front-accessible hub hints more toward productivity, alongside the TUV 5-star certified eye comfort features, you can still use it for gaming and complete immersion. Keep in mind that you’ll need a pretty big desk for it.
Lastly, a well-known Alienware gaming bundle gets an upgrade. The Alienware Pro Wireless Keyboard and Mouse include the 75% sized hot-swappable keyboard tailored explicitly for gamers and the ultra-light mouse weighing less than 60 grams. The mouse also has 4Khz/8Khz polling rate modes, which means an incredible response time, perfect for shooters and fast-paced games. And don’t forget the RGB; lots of it!
All the accessories will be available on January 11th, with Dell’s UltraSharp 40 Hub Monitor possibly even sooner. Considering the current lineup of laptops and accessories, the life improvement upgrades seem solid, especially regarding the new CPUs and GPUs. Although there are no price mentions yet, we expect most devices to come around the same price as this year’s lineup, with maybe slight changes to Alienware’s family of laptops.
The EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data is a critical piece of information that helps us identify the various details of an image, be it the picture’s mode, aperture, shutter speed, focal length, location, and copyright, amongst others. Also, you can easily edit the EXIF data in Windows.
Remember, some of the information may not be editable, and that’s easy to find out. But, being able to identify and edit the metadata is vital from a privacy point of view. It helps remove identifiable information, such as the coordinates of your location, from the picture.
Is EXIF data accurate?
Given that a user can easily edit or remove certain parts of the EXIF metadata, it’s not always accurate. The location might be incorrect, copyright information might have been modified, and the creation date may have been altered. Besides, the device may sometimes make an error while registering the information.
How do I edit EXIF metadata in Windows?
1. Via File Explorer
Press Windows + E to open File Explorer, locate the image for which you want to modify the EXIF metadata in Windows, right-click on it and select Properties.
Navigate to the Details tab.
Click on the various values listed here, and any that open an editable text field or a dropdown menu are modifiable.
Once done with the edits, click on Apply and OK to save the changes.
Remember, you can only edit a limited set of EXIF data with the Windows File Explorer. This includes Camera maker, Camera model, Metering mode, Flash mode, Exposure program, White balance, and EXIF version, amongst others.
But File Explorer doesn’t allow editing the GPS data, i.e., the Lattitude, Longitude, and Altitude.
There are several effective photo viewers for Windows, most allowing users to edit or modify the EXIF data.
Go with a reliable option that offers the functionality and doesn’t corrupt the image while making the changes.
FileViewer Plus is a great third-party app that will allow you to open and edit over 400 file types. This tool will also bring a powerful file converter and file browser. All this is packed in a modern and easy-to-use interface.
FileViewer Plus
Make sure you are able to open and edit any type of file with this powerful tool.
Though you could use a third-party tool to remove the EXIF data, Windows offers a seamless built-in functionality, and we recommend using that.
Right-click on the image for which you want to remove the EXIF metadata, and select Properties.
Go to the Details tab, and click on Remove Properties and Personal Information at the bottom.
If you want to remove every piece of metadata, choose Create a copy with all possible properties removed, and click OK.
In case you want to remove specific parts of the EXIF data, select Remove the following properties from this file, tick the checkbox for all the information you want to delete, and click OK.
While removing or deleting the EXIF data, you should select every piece of information that can compromise security or privacy.
Also, most online photo-sharing platforms, say Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter, automatically remove this information when an image is uploaded. But for others, this has to be done manually and is critical!
The Alt-Tab is one of the most used shortcuts in Windows 11 but sometimes you may want to disable this function. While this feature can be useful, especially when you have a lot of windows open, it can also be distracting.
If you are playing a game or using some other app that needs all of your attention, it’s better to turn it off.
How do I turn off the Alt-Tab option in Windows 11?
You will be directed to app. Click the Install button.
Click Yes on the UAC prompt to complete the installation.
Launch the app and go to Keyboard Manager > Remap a shortcut.
Under Physical Shortcut, select Type and from the drop-down menu, select the Alt + Tab combination. Also, under MappedTo, select Disable from the dropdown menu.
Double-click the downloaded AutoHotkey setup file to launch it.
Navigate to File > Edit Script.
Delete the default script entries and Enter: ;Disable Alt+Tab
Click Save as to bring up that window and select the All files option.
Choose a folder location, and click Save.
AutoHotkey will automatically disable the Alt-Tab combination whenever you launch this script.
And that’s not all you can do with the AutoHotkeys feature. If you’d like to change the behavior of other keys, you can check out the Mouse and Keyboard section to fine-tune or make custom combinations.
Open the Run dialog box with the Windows + R key combination.
Type regedit in the dialog box and press Enter to open Registry Editor.
Navigate to the following path: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
Locate the CoolSwitch entry, double-click on it, and set the Value data to 0.
Close the Registry Editor and restart your PC for the changes to take effect.
Note that the CoolSwitch entry may be unavailable in Windows Home and Pro editions. Unfortunately, this process varies depending on what version of Windows you have running.
How do I disable Alt-Tab from showing Edge tabs?
If your aim is to show Windows only when you press the Alt-Tab combo and not your recent browser tabs, you can do so from the Settings app. Simply navigate to System>Multitasking and in the Alt-Tab option, select Open Windows only from the drop-down menu.
All in all, it may not be feasible in the long run to keep this feature on. You might find that it is much better for you to have focus as you don’t accidentally switch to any other window and also if you want to play any games with a separate window.
That is it, now whenever you want to escape Alt-Tab hell simply use any of the above methods and you will never have to deal with that problem again. It’s a simple change but one that makes navigating a bit easier.
Which of the methods do you find easier to follow? Let us know down below.
A crosshair stuck on the screen is a common problem encountered by users. For some, it could be moved across the display, while others reported that it remained fixed.
Also, the crosshair may not be visible if you try capturing a screenshot. This is because it’s not related to the OS or any program but is the monitor’s built-in functionality.
Why is there a crosshair stuck on my screen?
The crosshair usually appears on a gaming monitor if you inadvertently press the dedicated key or change the monitor’s built-in options. Besides, the problem could be related to misconfigured settings within a game or app.
How do I get rid of the crosshair on my computer screen?
Before we start with the slightly complex solutions, try these quick ones:
Look for the dedicated crosshair switch or button on the monitor and disable it. For some devices, it’s the right arrow button at the bottom of the screen. You could check the monitor’s manual for help.
Press Fn and the Down arrow key (works only with specific models).
Restart the device.
1. Disable crosshair in the monitor settings
Access the monitor’s Settings through the dedicated button.
Make sure the Aim point setting is set to Off.
Once done, the crosshair shouldn’t be stuck on the screen anymore.
The steps might be different depending on the manufacturer. For Acer monitors, open the menu > go to Gaming > and set Aim Point to Off to get rid of the red crosshair stuck on the screen.
2. Perform a clean boot
Press Windows + R to open Run, type msconfig in the text field, and hit Enter.
In the Services tab, tick the checkbox for Hide all Microsoft services, and then click on Disable all.
Go to the Startup tab, and click the Open Task Manager link.
Identify all programs that read Enabled under the Status column, then select them one at a time and click on Disable.
After making the changes, click on Apply and OK in the System Configuration window.
Finally, click Restart in the confirmation prompt.
After the PC starts in a clean boot environment, check whether the crosshair disappears.
If it did, re-enable the startup apps and services one at a time, and when the crosshair appears, the app/service enabled last is the problem. So, keep it disabled or uninstall altogether.
A clean boot in Windows 11 loads the OS with only the critical processes. No third-party apps or services run in this environment, making it ideal for troubleshooting such issues. After the problem is fixed, make sure to switch back to normal startup.
3. Change the affected program’s DPI settings
Identify the program/game triggering the crosshair, right-click on its launcher (.exe file), and select Properties.
Go to the Compatibility tab, tick the checkbox for Run this program as an administrator, and then click on Change high DPI settings.
Tick the checkbox for Override high DPI scaling behaviour, then select Application from the dropdown menu underneath, and click OK.
Finally, click on Apply and OK to save the changes, reboot the device, and check whether the crosshair stuck on the screen disappears.
This solution only applies when you are using FPSAimTrainer. If not, head to the next method.
Launch the FPSAimTrainer and open its Settings.
Go to the Weapons tab, untick the checkbox for Crosshair Bloom, and click Save to apply the changes.
5. Uninstall the problematic application
Press Windows + R to open Run, type appwiz.cpl in the text field, and click OK.
Select the application you believe is triggering the crosshair, and then select Uninstall.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.
Once done, reboot the PC and check for improvements.
If this doesn’t work, use a reliable software uninstaller to delete any leftover files and Registry entries, which might still be responsible for the green crosshair stuck on the monitor screen.
When nothing else works, and you are certain that it is a third-party program or game behind the stuck crosshair on the monitor, factory reset Windows.
Though this will wipe out all stored files and installed apps, it’s the best bet against the problem and will get things up and running!
One of these solutions should help if there’s a crosshair stuck on the screen, no matter the colour or shape!
The good thing about temporary errors like error 15 in Yahoo Mail is that they don’t last forever. However, since there’s no given timeline on when they’ll be fixed, we took the initiative to hasten the process, and here’s what you can do.
What is Yahoo Mail temporary error 15?
Temporary errors can mean anything from a server issue to a problem with your computer or internet connection. You may be facing issues while sending and receiving emails on your Yahoo account or can’t log in to your account.
The usual culprits are browser or app cache, you’re signed into more than one browser or device simultaneously. It can also happen when you’re in a different location as sometimes Yahoo doesn’t work well with a VPN.
How do I fix temporary error 15 in Yahoo Mail?
Here are some preliminary fixes you can try until the issue is resolved:
Sign out of other active sessions on other browsers or devices, close the browser, and reopen it.
Verify that you have internet connectivity by opening another site in your browser.
Check for any new updates for your operating system and apps.
1. Delete cache
1.1 Browser cache
For this step, we shall be using the Chrome browser.
Launch your Chrome browser and click the three vertical ellipses in the top right corner.
Select Settings.
Click on Privacy and security, then select Clear browsing data.
Check Cookies and other site data and Cached images and files, then hit Clear data.
1.2 App cache
Tap on settings on your phone.
Next, tap on Apps.
Find the Yahoo Mail app and tap on it.
Scroll down and select Storage.
Tap on Clear data and Clear cache,then try again.
2. Switch to a supported Yahoo Mail browser
To experience the full benefits of Yahoo Mail, you need to use one of its supported browsers. If you’re using a supported browser, keep in mind that not all versions of these browsers are compatible with Yahoo Mail.
It is possible it’s an older browser version whose support has ended hence causing the temporary error 15 message. We recommend that you update to the latest version.
3. Use the native app
There are two ways to access your Yahoo Mail account: the native app and the web browser version. You can download Yahoo Mail on your computer or phone instead of using a web browser. This might be faster and more reliable than using the web version.
If you’re using a third-party email client, such as Outlook, make sure it’s configured to use IMAP (or its equivalent). If it isn’t, it won’t be able to sync messages correctly and you’ll encounter the temporary error 15.
Hit the Start menu icon, type Windows Security in the search bar and click Open.
Click on Firewall & network protection, then select Public network.
Locate Microsoft Defender Firewall and toggle the off button.
Some antivirus programs may be blocking access from outside sources, which could prevent you from using Yahoo Mail. If this fixes the issue, you should allow the Yahoo Mail app through your firewall or help upgrade any security features that may be causing problems with Yahoo Mail.
5. Reset your browser
Open your Chrome browser and click on the three vertical ellipses at the top right corner.
Select Settings.
Next, click on Reset and cleanup, then select Restore settings to their original defaults.
Confirm Reset settings in the next dialog box.
And if that doesn’t work, re-install the Yahoo Mail app on your device. This will refresh all of its settings to their default values and hopefully get rid of the temporary error 15.
If you’ve tried everything above and still can’t access your Yahoo Mail account, remember that an online service is only as good as the provider. Yahoo Mail may be temporarily down with this error or other problems. You can contact support for help.
And that’s a wrap. Hopefully, now your Yahoo Mail is running smoothly again and you can avoid the dreaded temporary error 15 in the future. You never know when it will come up again, but if it does, we hope you’ll know what to do.
Let’s continue the conversation in the comment section below as you let us in on any other tricks or tips to avoid such errors.
Thinking about buying an HP Deskjet 4155e Printer? You’ve probably wondered about whether an all-in-one printer is the best choice. But there are more things you have to consider when buying a printer. To help you make an informed decision, we will review this printer thoroughly below.
Is the HP 4155e printer any good?
HP’s inkjet printers are known for their excellent photo quality, but they’re also reliable and easy to use, and the HP 4155e is no exception. When you want to buy a printer, there are several essential things to consider, such as speed, reliability, resolution, and cost.
The HP 4155e is a good choice for an affordable printer that produces high-quality printed documents and photos.
What are the main features of the HP Deskjet 4155e printer?
Overview
The HP Deskjet 4155e is one of the most affordable all-in-one printers. It’s a compact and lightweight printer that is designed to be portable.
It’s an inkjet printer with a black cartridge and a tri-color cartridge, has a built-in scanner, and can be connected to your computer using the USB port or wirelessly via the network via Wi-Fi.
1. All-in-one printer
Printing, scanning, copying, and faxing are all easy to do on this device. The printer comes with an inkjet color scanner that can scan documents from up to A4 size.
Printing – The print resolution of 4800 x 1200 dpi for color and 1200 x 1200 for black. This means that your documents will look sharp and clear.
Scanning – You can scan your documents with this printer without any problem as it has an automatic document feeder (ADF), which can scan at 300 dpi (dots per inch). This is particularly useful if you need to scan large documents like books or magazines.
Faxing – There’s no built-in fax machine, but you can print directly from the machine or copy documents onto a memory card so they can be transmitted by email or text later. The resolution for sending faxes is 300 x 300 dpi and has unlimited storage.
2. Smart features
It’s easy to install the HP Deskjet 4155e because setup is done via the HP Smart mobile app. The printer comes with an HP smart mobile app that allows you to print from anywhere. The app is available for both Android and iOS devices.
Once you connect your printer to your computer using the USB cable, printing, scanning, and faxing becomes a breeze. The HP Deskjet 4155e printer is an inkjet printer that uses thermal inkjet technology. This means that it uses heat to generate color.
It also features an easy-to-use touchscreen display with simple icons that guide you through the process of printing a document and let you know when there are issues with printing.
3. Wireless and USB connection
Another great feature of this printer is the built-in wireless connectivity option. You can connect wirelessly to your network without having to run any wires through your home or office space.
It comes with a built-in USB 2.0 port, allowing you to connect it directly to your computer or network if you prefer not to use Wi-Fi. It is easy to set up and use, so you don’t have to worry about any technical issues while using it.
The HP Deskjet 4155e printer is compatible with both Windows and Mac operating systems, offering you the flexibility you need to print from either device. This printer supports various media types, including envelopes, labels, cards, and transparencies.
You can also save files as JPEGs or PDFs, which means you can send them by email without using a computer if you don’t have one in hand.
The HP Deskjet 4155e has a print speed of up to 8.5 pages per minute for black and white documents, and up to 5.5 pages per minute for color documents.
It’s slightly slower than the average for inkjet printers but very fast speed for a budget printer, especially considering that it offers both black and white and color printing capabilities.
Still, if you’re printing in color then you might want to look for a different machine. But if you’re only printing black-and-white documents, this printer should work fine for you.
6. Ink plan
The HP Deskjet 4155e printer uses three ink cartridges. It’s not your regular refill printer where you replace the cartridge once the ink runs out. It comes with a feature called the HP Instant Ink plan which is a subscription-based service.
The HP ink plan will let you replace your ink cartridge with a new one when it runs out of ink.
It also includes an option to get replacement cartridges at discounted rates. The printer has a one-year warranty and six months of free ink for the trial period.
The program automatically checks your ink levels and notifies you when it’s time to replace them. It also lets you know when the cartridges are running low on ink so that you can be prepared for the replacement process.
Ink refills may not be cheap since it’s a subscription that sets you back if you let it expire. However, if you’re looking for printers with cheaper ink options, we’ve got you covered.
7. Paper capacity
The paper capacity of this printer is 60 sheets, which should be enough for most uses. If you need more capacity, you can upgrade. This device has a monthly duty cycle of up to 1,000 pages for black and white printing, while it can handle up to 500 pages for color printing per month.
It can also handle up to 5 envelopes at a time and supports an automatic document feeder for scanning multiple pages at once. This should be enough for most users who need to print only occasionally or infrequently.
8. Memory
The HP Deskjet 4155e printer comes with 64 MB DDR RAM and 20 MB flash memory. The memory specifications of a printer are very important. It can affect the speed of your printer, which is especially important if you print a lot of documents.
64 MB DDR1 RAM is enough for most printers. If you have a lot of documents being printed at once or if your printer needs to use more memory than this, then it could be worth upgrading your printer to one that does because this one does not have memory card support.
Does the HP DeskJet 4155e print photos?
The HP DeskJet 4155e is not designed specifically for printing photos, but it does a decent job. Note that it might not be able to handle all formats.
Does HP 4155e print double-sided?
Yes, HP 4155e can print on both sides of the paper, but not automatically. You’ll have to set it to print double-sided manually.
What are the pros and cons of the HP Deskjet 4155e?
Pros
Easy to use
Print quality is good, but not outstanding
Prints in black and white or color
Compatible with both Windows and Mac operating systems
And if you put it to work constantly, you may soon hear some buzzing noise from your printer. However, with regular maintenance, the HP Deskjet 4155e can serve you for years.
What is the difference between 4155 and 4155e?
The HP DeskJet 4155 is a printer that has been discontinued by the manufacturer. It has been replaced by the HP DeskJet 4155e.
Perhaps the most notable feature difference is that the former had Bluetooth connectivity while the replacement doesn’t. Wi-Fi has replaced this wireless connection. A USB cable was also included in the discontinued printer, but you have to purchase it separately for the replacement.
Now, let’s cut to the chase. If you’re printing high-quality photos, no, you shouldn’t buy this printer. It just won’t produce the results you want. While it was a quick printer to set up and had a decent print speed, the low quality of its prints and frequent paper jams made it fail as an excellent all-around printer.
However, if you use your printer for other things like printing out papers or documents that don’t require more precision, then this should be a perfectly fine printer for your everyday home printing needs. It has a 4.1 rating on Amazon, so the majority of people seem to like it.
But as a more experienced user, you’ll likely want to opt for something with more power. Perhaps a printer for mid-sized businesses may interest you as they’ll be able to pick up where the 4155e fails.
If we were to do it all over again, knowing what we now know about the HP Deskjet 4155e, getting a cheaper printer would have sufficed.
We would go for one that wasn’t tied to a subscription, limited to specific cartridges and inks, required sensitive information to install a program, and didn’t have a cap for printing a certain number of papers.

Whether you are a small business owner or someone passionate about organizing things, a label maker like Phomemo D30 can be an excellent tool for you.
In this comprehensive review, we will delve into its features, design elements, and functionality to help you decide whether Phomemo D30 is a worthy contender for the perfect label maker title.
What features should an ideal label maker have?
Printing technology – Some popular technologies include thermal transfer, direct thermal, and inkjet. Each has its pros and cons; check which matches your needs.
Compatibility with label types – Make sure the label maker supports various label types and sizes to fulfil all your labelling needs.
Consumables cost – Always keep the cost of label rolls and cartridges in mind as you need to replace supplies, and it could help you decide to look at the overall budget.
Customization features – The label maker should have custom features like font styles, sizes, and graphic options so that you can personalize the labels the way you like.
Design, portability, and storage – It should be compact and lightweight with sufficient memory to store frequently used labels & templates.
What features make Phomemo D30 a must-have?
1. Inkless Label Printer
Phomemo D30 uses a BPA-free direct thermal technology, which means you don’t need ink, ribbons or toner to print labels of your choice.
It also comes with a lot of color thermal paper options and the printing speed is fast, and you can get the output in a few seconds. However, the label marker can only provide monoChrome printing output.
To make this inkless label printer work, all you need is a roll; each roll can print 210 small labels, which are perfect when organizing stuff at home or for schoolwork.
2. Dedicated app
The Phomemo D30 can be operated using a dedicated app called Print Master, which is available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
It is an easy-to-use app with an intuitive interface, which connects your app with the printer using Bluetooth of your Android or iOS phone or tablet. Once connected, it lets you edit the size & change the text’s direction, and click the Print icon on the top-right corner of the screen to print your label.
Additionally, you can scan the content you want to print and transfer it to text, 1-D or 2-D code. There are up to 500 label templates to choose from and a robust search system which makes finding the perfect label template easier.
3. Easy to use & portable
With a total of 180 Grams, the Phomemo D30 is portable, is half the weight of the traditional label maker and can easily fit in a pocket, which makes carrying it easy.
To start printing labels, all you need is the Print Master app on your phone and connect your printer to it. You get a wide variety of pre-designed templates, including more than 1000 symbols, 60+ frames, and fonts to choose from.
You can insert any picture, text, emoticons, QR codes, one-dimensional code, forms, logos, tables and more, and it also supports batch printing.
4. Performance & battery backup
Phomemo D30 comes with a German thermal print head, with 25% increased DPI than the earlier models, providing better print clarity, and thereby fast processing.
The white paper rolls and lint-free material in tape in the label maker guarantee crisp, dark imaging, ensuring a smooth printing experience without any concerns of paper jams or faded labels.
Another great thing about the product is its durability; the self-adhesive sticker thermal paper is oil, water and friction resistant, which makes it suitable for even the oil or pickle jars in your kitchen cabinet or toolbox in your garage.
This mini label Printer supports Bluetooth 4.0 connection, which supports long-distance printing, i.e, 10 meters. It charges quickly and can be charged using a USB cable, or you can also plug it into a power bank.
It has a battery capacity of 1000mAh and can efficiently print more than 4 rolls of thermal paper in 2 hours of charge.
5. Price & availability
At the time of writing, the Phomemo D30 Portable Bluetooth Label Maker is available at $29.59 on its official website and comes with a 1-year warranty. In the box, you get the label maker, USB cable and a plain white roll of label tape to start with.
You can also bundle it with the 3 rolls of thermal paper of your choice at $32.99. You can use this label marker to organize your home supplies, medicine cabinets, school work or office files, name tags and more.
Moreover, if you are a small business owner, you can create customized price tags and name tags to stand out. Phomemo also has a responsive customer service team in case you are stuck with something.
Pros
Portal option that comes with different label sizes, patterns, and fonts

Print clarity and quality is very impressive
Cons

How can I use Phomemo D30 to print labels?
Open the label printer cover to get to the printer spool.
Now, take out the label spool and remove the sticker to release it. Once done, ensure the label is just poking through the label printer, then shut the case.
Download the Print Master app for your Android or iOS device, then select Phomemo D30 and register your device using an email and security code. Registering the account may take some time, so be patient.
Now, select the label design, type in the text, choose an emoticon if you want, and tap on Print to get your label.
If you are wondering how you can print labels from Excel, all you need to do is insert Excel on the app, select the label design, font, and style, then click Print and voila!
Final Thoughts on Phomemo D30
In this fast-paced modern lifestyle, keeping your things organized is important to save time, and a portable label maker like Phomemo D30 can be the ideal choice.
With a long storage period, a label size from 0.24 – 0.47, superior print clarity, an easy-to-use setup and an innovative label creator, the sky is the limit.
You can use it for your school projects or can organize your household things using it, and the best part is it doesn’t use ink, which is kind of weird.

Keyboard delay in Windows 11 is often caused by improper connection or placing the keyboard and dongle far away from each other (for wireless keyboards). Outdated drivers, misconfigured settings, or corrupt system files can also contribute.
Below, we’ll outline easy steps to get rid of all these problems that cause input lag on your keyboard. Let’s get started.
How do I fix my keyboard input delay on Windows 11?
Start by connecting your keyboard to another port, and disable filter keys and fast startup. If you’re still struggling, keep reading.
1. Update the keyboard drivers
Press Windows + X to open the Power User menu, and select Device Manager from the list.
Expand the Keyboards entry, right-click on the affected device, and select Update driver.
Choose Search automatically for drivers and let Windows find and install the best available version.
Once done, reboot the device and check for improvements.
Press Windows + S to open Search, type Edit power plan in the search field, and click the relevant result.
Click on Change advanced power settings.
Double-click the USB settings entry.
Under USB selective suspend setting, select Disabled, and click OK to save the changes.
Finally, reboot the device and check for improvements.
2.2 Change the USB Root Hub properties
Press Windows + S to open Search, type Device Manager in the search bar, and click the relevant result.
Expand the Universal Serial Bus controllers section.
Right-click on USB Root Hub and select Properties.
Go to the Power Management tab, untick the checkbox for Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power, and click OK to save the changes.
Make similar changes to any other USB Root Hub devices that appear here, reboot the device, and check whether this eliminates the Windows 11 keyboard delay.
3. Repair the corrupt system files
Press Windows + R to open Run, type cmd, and hit Ctrl + Shift + Enter.
Click Yes in the UAC prompt.
Paste the following DISM commands individually and hit Enter after each: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealthDISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealthDISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Now, run this command for the SFC scan: sfc /scannow
Finally, reboot the device for the changes to apply.
Often, corrupt system files can lead to issues with built-in components and external devices, including keyboard typing lag in Windows 11. Running the DISM commands and SFC scan will replace all such files with their cached copy.
If the problem is not solved yet, you should consider using a third-party repair tool aimed to fix corrupted files on your PC and on any other peripheral device connected to it. This also helps when the keyboard responds slowly.
4. Increase the virtual memory
Press Windows + S to open Search, type View advanced system settings, and click the relevant result.
Click the Settings button under Performance.
Go to the Advanced tab, and click on Change under Virtual memory.
Untick the checkbox for Automatically manage paging file size for all drives, select No paging file, and click Set.
Once done, select Custom size, and enter the following in the fields underneath based on the available RAM:
Initial size (MB): 1.5 x Available memory (in GB) x 1024
Maximum size (MB): 3 x Available memory (in GB) x 1024
Finally, click Set and then on OK to save the changes.
When increasing the virtual memory, use Microsoft’s recommended initial and maximum size. For instance, if the physical RAM is 4 GB, the Initial size becomes 6144 MB (1.5 x 4 x 1024), and the Maximum size becomes 12288 MB (3 x 4 x 1024).
5. Modify the Registry
Press Windows + R to open Run, type regedit in the text field, and click OK.
Click Yes in the UAC prompt.
Navigate the following path or paste it in the address bar and hit Enter: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Accessibility\Keyboard Response
Double-click the AutoRepeatDelay string.
Now, enter 200 under the Value data field, and click OK.
Similarly, set the following values for the remaining strings:
Another option that worked for users was to set the USB Keyboard Support Via setting to BIOS instead of the OS. In case you can’t find it, look for something along the lines of accepting the OS’s keyboard settings. If found, disable it to fix the keyboard delay in Windows 11.
Remember, the process will vary for every device. So, we recommend you check the manufacturer’s website for the exact steps.
7. Perform an in-place upgrade
Go to Microsoft’s official website, select the OS edition and product language, and then download the Windows 11 ISO.
Once downloaded, double-click the ISO file, and select Open in the confirmation prompt.
Run the setup.exe file.
Click Yes in the UAC prompt.
Click Next in the Windows 11 Setup to proceed.
Now, click Accept to agree to Microsoft’s license terms.
Finally, verify the setup reads, Keep personal files and apps, click Install, and wait for the process to complete.
When nothing listed previously works, an in-place upgrade will help get rid of keyboard delay in Windows 11 and even the laptop keyboard’s lag. It’s basically like reinstalling the OS, but you don’t lose any installed apps and stored files.
If the keyboard delay in Windows 11 persists, it’s likely a hardware fault, and you should have the device checked by a professional or replace it with a top-rated keyboard for the PC.

A label maker isn’t something we all need, but the ones who do prefer a compact and portable handheld device. In today’s market, Nelko P21 seems to be the first choice of many, though you should read our review before making the purchase.
No matter what the product description or customer reviews say, an unbiased Nelko P21 review will help you make the right decision. So, let’s get straight to it!
Is the Nelko P21 label maker good?
We will examine the Nelko P21 label maker on several critical factors and identify whether it’s the right purchase for you. And if not, find out which product would best suit your needs.
Build and performance
Nelko P21 is a feature-packed label maker that allows users to print labels on the go. The small 6.65 x 4.5 x 1.9 inches device weighing just 11.3 ounces can easily fit into your pocket and be used in workspaces, homes, or on vacation. It’s got a sturdy build and can be comfortably and conveniently held.
The Nelko P21’s Bluetooth connectivity is a significant advantage, allowing seamless wireless printing from Android and iOS smartphones. So, no more tangled wires to deal with!
However, there’s room for improvement with the print speed, capped at 60 mm/s. The Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer, though not as compact, offers a print speed of 150 mm/s and can print up to 72 labels/min.
So, the Nelko P21 label maker would be a great fit for homes or smaller tasks, but if it’s to be extensively used for longer durations, you may consider going with a label maker that offers a higher print speed.
The print quality is high with a resolution of 203 DPI, though you may face issues using a non-official thermal label paper. That’s a downside, but it won’t be a factor for most users since the Nelko thermal paper is easily available and reasonably priced.
Usability
Most buyers are satisfied with the Nelko P21 label maker. The compact size and self-adhesive labels are enticing. Besides, many people used it to print bar codes and QR codes, and the Nelko P21 worked perfectly fine, making it a suitable product for small businesses.
Printing QR codes with Nelko P21
However, Nelko P21 lacks coloured text printing, a major downside for a label maker. Though you can use white labels in different sizes (15×30 mm, 12×40 mm, 15×40 mm, 15×50 mm) coloured labels, choose from a range of patterns, or go with the transparent ones.
Also, it doesn’t come equipped with an automatic label-cutting functionality, and you will have to detach each manually.
Another major drawback of Nelko P21 is its lack of compatibility with computers. While mobile phones have become the go-to solution for everything, computers still are the primary device in most workplaces. There’s simply no option to connect it with computers. Nelko P21 is a mobile-only label maker!
Battery backup
Powered by a 1200 mAh Lithium Polymer battery, the Nelko P21 will easily last several days (of normal use) on a single charge. The battery life sure is an added bonus with this label maker!
Also, you will get a USB Type-C cable to recharge the device within the box. But even in its absence, charging wouldn’t have been a problem after the mass adoption of the Type-C standard. If required, you could use a USB-C extension cable for enhanced usability.
The dedicated Nelko app
To print labels with Nelko P21, you must download the dedicated Nelko app, available on both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store.
Nelko on the App Store
Besides being a necessity, the Nelko app provides a wide array of templates and designs, including QR codes, bar codes, texts, images, and different font options. With these, you can create both personalized and professional labels.
Pricing
The Nelko P21 presently costs $39.99 on the official website, which is a reasonable price for the label maker. Its compactness, print clarity, complete elimination of ink and toner, and high battery life would be perfect for home use.
The Nelko P21 is the cheapest label maker offered by Nelko, while its other products are in the price range of $50-150.
Label makers with a similar feature set developed by other manufacturers will cost you roughly in the range of $25-80. So, the Nelko P21 is not the cheapest option, but it is competitively priced.
That’s our review of Nelko P21 after extensive research and collating user reviews. The label maker is a game changer in several aspects, be it the size, clarity of prints, or price range, but the non-compatibility with computers will surely count as a major drawback!

What are the best features of Norton 360 Deluxe?
1. Antivirus capabilities
With real-time threat protection, the Norton 360 Deluxe keeps an eye on emerging online threats and keeps your private and financial information safe when you browse online.
The Smart Firewall for your computer monitors communication between your PC and other computers and blocks any unauthorized traffic coming your way.
It comes with ARP and DNS spoofing protection, SSL man-in-the-middle attack detection, and more to detect every intrusion.
You can run full, quick, and custom antivirus scans as and when required. Additionally, you can also run the rigorous Norton Power Eraser feature to find out persistent threats.
The Data Protector feature of Norton 360 Deluxe stops malicious programs, mainly ransomware, from making changes to protected files.
Norton 360 Deluxe’s Intrusion Prevention blocks exploits at the network level as, unlike other security software, Norton comes with a powerful firewall right in the tool.
2. Dark web monitoring
With Norton 360 Deluxe, you get the Dark Web Monitoring feature to keep an eye on your information, such as your email address, phone number, driver’s license, insurance, credit card, bank account passwords, and even gamertag, to verify if they have been compromised online.
Once you log into it from My Norton dashboard, it will scan and show you the list. If your information is exposed, then you will be informed. You can open the item listed to get the important details.
On the same page, you will get the alerts generated. When you open an alert, you can see the details, including personal data.
It also provides you with steps you need to take to fix the issue and sometimes chat-based help to understand the pop-up.
3. Powerful VPN
Another exceptional feature is Secure VPN, a virtual private network, which makes this antivirus protection suite all the more powerful.
With the increase of users understanding the importance of staying anonymous, security companies have started adding a full VPN to the security suite.
The Norton 360 Deluxe comes with the full power of Norton Secure VPN, which you can use on up to five devices, including your PC, macOS, Android, and iOS.
You can turn it on and choose a VPN region from the options presented once you do that. Next time, you can just click the button next to VPN on My Norton to enable or disable it.
It harnesses the power of WireGuard Protocol, an open-source framework that ensures better security and privacy. Complemented with important features like Kill Switch and Split Tunneling features, the VPN provides a much more reliable online experience.
With advanced and nasty spyware and notorious hackers, it is possible to activate your camera without you even realizing it.
Thankfully, with Norton’s PC SafeCam spyware protection system, you can keep these snooping cybercriminals away from your devices and misuse the webcam. At the time of writing, the feature is only available for Windows.
SafeCam allows only safe programs to access your camera. If an unknown app tries to access it, Norton sends you a warning alerting you about it. You can then choose to allow or restrict the access once or always.
With parental control across all your devices, Norton 360 Deluxe allows you to supervise your kids’ devices and their online activities, keeping them safe.
To enable it, you can click Manage next to the Parental Controls option from the My Norton dashboard. To monitor a device, you need to log in to the Norton account, create a profile for your child, and then install the app on the device used by the kid.
You can create n number of child profiles and install the app on any number of devices, excluding the one with macOS.
This feature will help you block websites and age-inappropriate content according to the rules you set under the Parental Control feature.
You can set Mobile app supervision(Android & Windows), Search Supervision, Location Supervision (iOS and Android), and even Video Supervision.
6. Privacy Monitor
Norton 360 Deluxe comes with a Privacy Monitor, then you can access it from the My Norton online dashboard.
To set it up, you need to fill in the personal information, including Full Name, State, City, and your birth year.
The Privacy Monitor checks data brokers and reports to see if your information is available online. You can check the report and click the Request Removal from any brokers who have your information.
Next, Norton provides the link; then, you can get in touch with the data broker to make the request to get the information deleted.
The real-time protection feature of a traditional security suite can take a toll on your system performance as they need to start working as soon as your computer boots up
However, with Norton 360 Deluxe, the impact is lower than other protection software, making the tool perfect for users who prioritize comprehensive security without sacrificing significant system performance
Norton 360 Deluxe also comes with an inbuilt password manager with secure 256-bit AES encryption, unlimited password storage, sync across all your devices, a password generator, and an auto-save & auto-fill feature.
However, you must remember the master password and try setting up a catchphrase as the password, as Norton doesn’t offer many recovery options.
Supervise searches on Google, Yahoo, Bing, and other search engines
Cons
Parental control is not available for macOS
Online backup is only for Windows
Norton 360 Deluxe is a one-stop security suite with advanced features like PC SafeCam to protect your webcam, a Spam filter to set up exclusion lists for trusted mail & unblock untrustworthy emails, and more.
The Virus protection promise (If you have a virus that Norton can’t remove, you get a full refund) gives you a compelling assurance and provides confidence in the software’s capability.
Norton 360 Deluxe can be installed on five devices, including Windows, Mac, Android & iOS, and has a fair price for all the features it can provide.
Installing the software and using it is pretty straightforward, and at the time of testing, it proves true to its claims. However, if it is not for you and you are having trouble uninstalling it, read this guide.

Planning to purchase the Samsung 980 Pro and looking for an honest review? You have come to the right place. While most websites and user forums highlight the pros of the Samsung SSD, there are some cons too. But does the latter overshadow the former, or is it the other way around?
A high-performance SSD, the Samsung 980 Pro is definitely one of the most preferred options in the market, especially among gamers. But is it worth the hype? Let’s find out in this detailed and user-oriented review of the Samsung 980 Pro!
Is the Samsung 980 Pro good or bad?
We will be assessing the Samsung 980 Pro on different factors to help you better understand both upsides and downsides. It’s kept brief for enhanced readability but encompasses all the critical aspects.
For most users, data transfer speed turned out to be 75-90% of what’s claimed, and that’s decent, given there are several factors at play. Samsung 980 Pro is powered by the Elpsis controller and comes with a PCIe 4.0 interface, making it 2x faster than PCIe 3.0 SSDs and almost 12x faster than the conventional Samsung SATA SSDs.
Claimed by Samsung
Reported by users
Read
7,000 MB/s
5,500-6,500 MB/s (rarely lower than that)
Write
5,100 MB/s
4,000-4,500 (rarely lower)
Besides, as per user reviews, the Samsung 980 Pro is good for gaming, delivers high loading speed and lower boot time, and substantially improves the game’s performance.
Remember, you will only get these figures with Intelligent TurboWrite technology activated. Also, if the read and write speeds are considerably poor, consider disconnecting the Samsung 980 Pro and then reinstalling it.
Compatibility and thermal controls
Given the compact M.2 2280 form factor, you can easily plug Samsung 980 Pro into most computers and laptops.
However, its backward compatibility with PCIe 3.0 results in reduced transfer speed on older systems, sometimes as low as 1,500-3,500 MB/s, which is significant, considering the higher price range. So, people with older AMD or Intel systems are probably better off with other cheaper high-speed SSDs.
Also, the Samsung 980 Pro is compatible with PS5 and rated by some as the best among the available options, given the fact that it doesn’t throttle the performance.
As for temperature and heating on the Samsung 980 Pro, it boasts a cutting-edge thermal control algorithm coupled with a nickel coating to effectively auto-manage the controller’s heat level and transfer speed to deliver superior performance, even under prolonged use.
The Samsung 980 Pro performed well under tests, and you, most likely, shouldn’t have to face overheating issues!
Availability of different storage options
The Samsung 980 Pro is available in four storage options: 250 GB, 500 GB, 1 TB, and 2 TB. While not directly related to the experience or performance, the availability of four different options ensures that users can get one based on their requirements.
So, with the Samsung 980 Pro, you can always get the desired storage space and won’t have to shell out a higher sum.
Data encryption
With security and privacy being a concern for most of us, Samsung 980 Pro’s built-in encryption is certainly an added benefit.
The much-talked-about SSD offers a hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption, one of the most secure algorithms. So, the Samsung 980 Pro would be a great fit for users who intend to store critical or confidential data.
Samsung Magician support
Samsung Magician is the manufacturer’s dedicated program to manage storage solutions, and with it, you can get a lot more out of the Samsung 980 Pro. The software’s built-in optimization tools will improve the SSD’s performance.
Samsung Magician
Samsung Magician will facilitate the installation of firmware updates and help monitor the drive’s health. Also, you can enable the 256-bit AES encryption for the Samsung 980 Pro using the program. Besides, you could turn on over-provisioning to free up storage.
As per our Windows Report experts, Samsung Magician is one of the best SSD optimization tools available, and coupling its rich and performance-oriented functionality with the Samsung 980 Pro does lead to an impressive boost!
Pricing
As per the official website, the Samsung 980 Pro is priced at $79.99 for the 500GB model, $109.99 for the 1TB model, and $179.99 for the 2TB model.
Though priced a little towards the higher side, the features and transfer speed offered by the Samsung 980 Pro are reasonably good for the range. Besides, you can’t put a price on the peace of mind, knowing the SSD has a longer life. And if you manage to buy the SSD at a discount, it would be a good deal!
Remember, its high pricing can only be justified if the Samsung 980 Pro can deliver the claimed transfer speed. But this has been a problem with older PCs. So, you might want to look at the other available Samsung SSDs, ones that are fully compatible with the device.
What is the lifespan of the Samsung 980 Pro?
The Samsung 980 Pro comes with the standard 5-year warranty, but given the high TBW (TerraBytes Written) rating, it will likely last 6-8 years or longer for regular users.
Is the Samsung 980 Pro better than the normal SSD?
The Samsung 980 Pro is certainly better than a regular SSD due to its high read and write speed, secure encryption algorithms, longer lifespan, easy management, and efficient thermal controls. But at the same time, it’s costlier!
So, if money is a critical factor, you should look at the cheaper alternatives. But remember, with the Samsung 980 Pro, the graphics and gaming performance will certainly witness an instant boost.
That’s our unbiased review of the Samsung 980 Pro, an excellent SSD for anyone with a high-end PC willing to shell out a slightly higher sum.
Streaming apps like Jio Cinema may face loading errors like 7050 from time to time, especially if you have an unstable connection. However, once you address the issue but the error is persistent, you need to dig deeper. Well, we did, and here are the results.
How do I fix Jio error 7050?
Here are a few workarounds to start you off:
Disconnect other devices on the network and only leave the streaming device then log out and log back in.
Open the phone Settings, and go to General management.
Tap on Reset.
Now, select Reset network settings from the list of options.
Tap on Reset settings to confirm.
6.2 iPhone
Open the iPhone Settings, and go to General.
Tap on Transfer or Reset iPhone.
Tap Reset at the bottom.
Select Reset Network Settings from the list of options.
Enter the device’s passcode to confirm the reset.
6.3 PC
Hit the Windows key and click on Settings.
Navigate to Network & internet.
Select Advanced network settings.
Click on Network reset.
Next, hit the Reset now button.
7. Contact support
Finally, some issues like error 7050 may require more muscle from the developers. If you’ve sorted out all your internet-related issues and even verified from your ISP that everything is okay, Jio Cinema support should be able to help with this one.
Otherwise, you might just have to wait and try later. Some connection issues usually resolve themselves so hopefully, you won’t be waiting too long.
Why does JioCinema buffer so much?
The number of people trying to access content simultaneously is very high. You can try streaming during off-peak hours.
Your VPN is throttling. Disabling your VPN can improve the buffering time by up to 70%, but it will also mean losing access to geo-restricted content.
The type of device you’re using also plays a role. If your device isn’t powerful enough to run certain apps smoothly, they will naturally start lagging or even crashing while running them.
We do hope that you found this article helpful in addressing error 7050 on the Jio Cinema app. Playback errors on Jio Cinema don’t end there, but we’ve done our homework and covered most fixes.
Finally, there’s no reason to rely on one streaming app. There are so many movie apps out there, and you should at least try them and see what they have to offer.
Did you manage to fix this error? Which solution worked for you? Let us know in the comment box below.
The Grounded Hosting Game Error is encountered when trying to set up a multiplayer game or even when joining one. The developers are aware of the problem for all three: Xbox, Microsoft Store, and Steam.
The error message reads, Hosting Game Error. There was an issue hosting a multiplayer game. Check your connection and try again.
Why can’t I host a game in Grounded?
If you can’t host a game in Grounded, it’s usually the missing critical components (Gaming Services), misconfigured privacy settings, or conflicting apps (antivirus and firewall) to blame. Besides, an incorrect date and time will trigger issues with the server, leading to the error.
How do I fix the Grounded Hosting Game Error?
Before we start with the slightly complex solutions, try these quick ones:
Check the Grounded issue tracker and look for any downtimes. If that’s the case, wait for a few hours and try again.
Make sure you are running the latest version of Grounded. As per the official communication, a patch for the error has been released. Also, disable any third-party antivirus or similar security software running on the PC.
When running the game initially, connect to a mobile hotspot, and after you have joined multiplayer, switch back to the previous network, whether Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
If faced with the Grounded Hosting Game Error on Xbox, force-restart the console. Also, you may sometimes be able to join in the second or third attempt. So, keep trying!
Tip
The solutions listed here are for a Windows PC, though they apply to the console as well. If you are playing Grounded on Xbox, use the equivalent measures.
1. Use a VPN
If you see the Grounded Hosting Game Error, get an effective VPN solution and switch to a server based in another region before hosting a multiplayer game.
Remember, this is not a fix but a workaround that worked for 4 out of 5 users faced with the connection error. And until a patch is released for your platform, a VPN will do the trick!
ExpressVPN can easily handle this task. This software provides you with a large number of servers to connect to, located in 105 countries all around the world. ExpressVPN can also be used to bypass some issues that might appear due to your ISP or local network setup.
ExpressVPN
Improve your online gaming experience with this powerful VPN.
Press Windows + I to open Settings, go to Time & language from the navigation pane, and click Date & time on the right.
Enable the toggle for both Set time zone automatically and Set time automatically.
Relaunch Grounded and check for improvements.
Even if automatically setting the two leads to an incorrect date and time being displayed, it should help with the Grounded Hosting Game Error.
2.2 Set date & time manually
In the Date & time settings, disable the toggle for Set time zone automatically and Set time automatically.
Select your region from the Time zone dropdown menu.
Click the Change button next to Set the date and time manually.
Set the correct date and time and click Change for them to reflect.
3. Repair the game files
Launch Steam, and head to the games Library.
Right-click on Grounded, and select Properties from the context menu.
Go to the Installed Files tab, and click on Verify integrity of games files.
Once done, relaunch the game and verify whether you can now host a multiplayer game.
4. Update Gaming Services and the Xbox app
NOTE
This fix only applies when you are using the Xbox app to play Grounded on the PC. If not, head to the next solution.
Press Windows + S to open Search, type Microsoft Store in the text field, and click the relevant result.
Click the Library icon near the bottom left.
Click the Get updates button.
If an update is listed for Gaming Services, the Xbox app, or any related components, download them.
Once done, reboot the PC, launch Grounded, and check for improvements.
5. Change the Steam’s privacy settings
Open the Steam app, click on your display name, and select Profile from the menu.
Click the Edit profile button.
No, go to Privacy settings from the navigation pane, and set the various options as follows:
My basic details: Public
My profile: Public
Game details: Friends Only
Friends list: Public
Inventory: Friends Only
Can post comments on my profile: Friends Only
Relaunch Grounded and check for improvements.
A few users reported that restrictions placed by Steam on the account, usually on under-18 accounts, led to the Grounded Hosting Game Error. If you are still unsure of the correct configuration, match it with another Steam account that doesn’t receive the error.
One of these solutions should have helped with the Grounded Hosting Game Error, as it did for other users. If not, contact Obsidian support. Remember, in most cases, simply relaunching the game should do the trick!
Good news for WhatsApp for Windows users: according to the latest findings from the folks over at WABetaInfo, WhatsApp for Windows users will be able to send and receive view-once pictures and videos on the platform, a year after the feature was deprecated on the platform.
What sparked the change and why this feature is coming back, we don’t know, but maybe it has to do with the rapid development of WhatsApp that’s been happening lately, in terms of security, and new features.
A year ago, this version of WhatsApp had the feature, but, as WABetaInfo reports, claims of security breaches were the reason the feature was deprecated in the first place. But now, it seems WhatsApp for Windows, WhatsApp Web, and Desktop users are able to use this feature once again, after installing the latest updates.
It’s a welcomed addition to WhatsApp for desktop devices, considering the updates WhatsApp has been getting this year. For instance, WhatsApp recently debuted Channels, allowing users to subscribe to communities and public persons, for the latest updates.
How to get the view-once feature on WhatsApp for Windows
To get the view-once feature on WhatsApp for Windows, make sure you have the latest version of WhatsApp for Windows available.
To update your WhatsApp for Windows, you’ll just need to open the Microsoft Store, search for WhatsApp, and download the latest updates. If there are any updates, the store will automatically download and install them.
When you open WhatsApp for Windows you might be one of the lucky users who gets to try the feature. You should know that it’s not yet widely available, and some users might have the feature, while others might not have it at all. However, according to WABetaInfo, it will roll out to all users in the following weeks.
As we mentioned earlier, the addition of the feature to WhatsApp for Windows is a welcomed one, especially for those users who predominately use WhatsApp for desktop devices.
It allows for more versatility, and the feature itself is designed in such a way files won’t be stored on devices, which is a good perspective to consider for those who want privacy.
The feature should be out to all desktop versions of WhatsApp by the end of this year. Are you excited about it?

Jio Cinema’s being one of India’s largest on-demand service providers means it’s not exempted from occasional issues such as error 1. Luckily, we narrowed down the top solutions so you can get back to streaming quickly.
Why is Jio Cinema showing error 1?
This error may occur while streaming, preventing playback of the video. The server could be overloaded, you may have internet connection issues, or a recent app update has issues causing another loading error 7050.
How do I fix error 1 on Jio Cinema?
Start with the following simple workarounds:
Ensure you have a stable and working internet connection, then verify that the Jio Cinema servers are up and running.
Check your device for firmware updates and restart it.
1. Enable background data
On your phone, go to Settings.
Scroll down and select Apps.
Locate the Jio Cinema app and click on it.
Tap on Mobile data.
Toggle on the Allow background data usage option.
Background data can help an app work more efficiently. It makes sure that your app is up-to-date with the latest information at all times so that you don’t have to re-download large files from scratch every time you open your app.
This is also a good time to disable any bandwidth limits you may have set up to ensure your Jio Cinema app is not capped when streaming.
2. Reset Access Point names
On your phone, go to Settings.
Tap on Connections.
Next, tap on Mobile networks>Access Point Names.
Tap on the three ellipses in the top right corner and tap on Reset to default.
Resetting access point names is changing the name of an access point. This can be used to avoid interference from other nearby networks. It’s also a good idea to reset the default login information for your wireless router if someone else has gotten hold of your credentials.
3. Delete app cache
3.1 TV app
On your TV, find your Settings.
Go to Apps and select Jio Cinema.
Scroll down and hit Clear data and Clear cache.
3.2 Android app
Tap on settings on your phone.
Next, tap on Apps.
Find the Jio Cinema app and tap on it.
Scroll down and select Storage.
Tap on Clear data and Clear cache,then try again.
3.3 Browser cache
For this step, we shall be using the Chrome browser.
Launch your Chrome browser and click the three vertical ellipses in the top right corner.
Select Settings.
Click on Privacy and security, then select Clear browsing data.
Check Cookies and other site data and Cached images and files, then hit Clear data.
4. Use a VPN
Error 1 on Jio Cinema happens for many reasons, and one of them is the VPN connection you might be using. When you connect to a VPN server, your IP address changes and this can cause issues. The app already has location restrictions, so you need to tread carefully when selecting your server.
So, we recommend that users turn off their VPN connection before connecting to the Jio Cinema app or switch to a more reliable VPN option, such as ExpressVPN.
ExpressVPN is a powerful dedicated VPN solution that can be used to bypass connection errors, coming either from the local network setup or from the ISP. Also, due to its large number of servers, located in 105 countries, ExpressVPN is perfect for watching geo-blocked content.

Do not let any errors ruin your experience when watching your favorite movies with this amazing VPN solution.
For other devices, this option may be unavailable. You’ll have to download an older version from a third-party site. Just ensure you have a comprehensive antivirus for maximum protection.

If you wish to enable the DNS over HTTPS feature to encrypt DNS requests, choose Encrypted only (DNS over HTTPS) for both Preferred DNS Encryption and Alternate DNS Encryption dropdowns.
Press the Save button once you are done with the changes.

Head down and select Manage installed applications.

Peacock TV is a US-only (and a few US territories) streaming service, but many, when making payments, received the error code PAS_41004. It only appeared recently, and there aren’t many reported cases of it.
The error message either reads We’re unable to complete your transaction right now. Please contact your card issuer for resolution, or Sorry, there’s been a problem. Please try again, followed by the error code PAS_41004.
What is Peacock payment error code PAS_41004?
PAS_41004 is a payment error that appears when buying the Peacock TV premium subscription plan. For some users, the error came up while applying a discount code. It could be due to using a non-supported payment method, server issues, or problems with the Internet connection.
How do I fix Peacock error code PAS_41004?
Before we start with the slightly complex solutions, try these quick ones:
Verify whether the Peacock TV servers are down using a real-time monitoring service like Downdetector. If so, try again in a few hours.
Restart the device or try making the payment on another one, preferably an Android or iOS device over mobile data. If using the Peacock website, run it in Incognito/Private mode.
Your primary approach when faced with the Peacock error code PAS_41004 error should be to use a reliable VPN software.
This is the best solution if you are trying to pay for Peacock TV outside the US. Also, a VPN helps bypass other trivial network-related issues and will allow you to make payments seamlessly.
ExpressVPN is a powerful solution for this issue. This tool will provide you with countless servers you can connect to, located in 105 countries. You can improve your connectivity and even your internet speed just by choosing a different server.
ExpressVPN
Don’t let errors ruin your experience when trying to watch your favorite Peacock shows with this powerful VPN.

An error code dubbed A19 with the Sorry, we can’t play the video. Please try again message may appear when you try to watch a video on Stan.
And since Stan is compatible with multiple devices, you can switch from one to the other. Still, we came up with ways to deal with this issue as you shall see below.
How do I fix error code A19 on Stan?
Begin with the following basic workarounds first:
Verify it’s not a case of a protected license error with the content you’re trying to stream.
Restart your router, log out then log back into your Stan account.
Scroll down and select Clear data and Clear cache.
1.2 Android phone/tablet
Tap on settings on your phone.
Next, tap on Apps.
Find the Stan app and tap on it.
Scroll down and select Storage.
Tap on Clear data and Clear cache,then try again.
1.3 Browser
For this step, we shall be using the Chrome browser.
Launch your Chrome browser and click the three vertical ellipses in the top right corner.
Select Settings.
Click on Privacy and security, then select Clear browsing data.
Check Cookies and other site data and Cached images and files, then hit Clear data.
1.4 Xbox
Press the Xbox button on your console.
Select Settings.
Click on Device & connections on the left.
Select Blu-ray.
Select Persistent Storage.
Choose Clear persistent storage.
2. Re-establish your connection to Stan
2.1 On your TV
Take the batteries out of your remote control, press and hold the power button for a few seconds, then release.
Now, press every button on the remote at least once while the batteries are out. This helps to clear residual power.
Insert the battery into the remote.
Next, unplug the TV from the power outlet, and press and hold down the TV’s power button for a few seconds.
Wait for one minute after doing this, plug the TV back into the power source, and power it on.
2.2 On your Xbox console
On your controller, press the Xbox button, and on the menu, click the System tab to open Settings.
Select System, then click on Console info.
Click on Reset console.
Choose Reset and keep my games & apps.
2.3 On your PS4/5
From the PS5 Home Screen locate and select Settings.
Next, go to System and select Accessories.
Here select General and Bluetooth Accessories.
Under the heading Registered Accessories locate and select your controller.
From the menu choose Delete.
When prompted to forget the device, select OK.
After that, pair your controller once again.
3. Re-enable the Widevine component
Open your Chrome browser, open a new tab, and enter the following address: chrome://components/
Locate Widevine Content Decryption Module then click Check for updates and wait for the component to be updated.
Launch Google Chrome, click three dots to open the Menu, and go to Settings.
Expand the Advanced tab, then click on System.
Toggle on the Use Hardware Acceleration when available option, then click the Relaunch link to restart the browser.
Widevine Content Decryption Module (Widevine CDM) is a software that allows playback of encrypted premium video content on web browsers, mobile devices, and set-top boxes.
It is widely adopted by content owners and service providers so if the error code A19 is persistent on Stan, the software may be disabled or outdated.
If you’re using other browsers, ensure you switch on this feature as well. The steps may vary slightly but these ones from Chrome give you a rough idea of how to go about it. Also, for Windows users, ensure to check whether the Widevinecdm.dll is missing or corrupted before trying again.
On your Stan account, click on your profile then go to Device Settings>Play stereo audio by default and toggle this option on. When you’re watching videos online, you’ll notice that some videos play without any problems while others are choppy or stop playing altogether.
This is because every video has its own encoding specifications. If the error code A19 on Stan is caused by the inability of your device to detect the right codec, changing to stereo mix can help resolve this issue because it is widely accepted and doesn’t require additional software or hardware.
5. Reinstall the app
On your TV, open Settings, and go to Applications.
Head down and select Manage installed applications.
Choose Stan from the list.
Scroll down to the bottom and select Uninstall.
Finally, choose Confirm to start the uninstallation.
Once done, reinstall the Stan app from the dedicated app store and verify whether error code A19 has disappeared.
You may also benefit from streaming software that will make your experience a breeze especially if frequently you encounter a lot of streaming errors.

Among all the AI development Microsoft put out this year so far, the Redmond-based tech giant found time to focus on Windows ARM, as well, which is a stripped version of Windows that runs on fewer technologies compared to its standard x86 / x64 version, but it delivers great performance and an insane amount of battery life.
What is Arm technology?
Arm technology is an architecture almost always found in smartphones and mobile devices, but bigger devices, such as laptops and computers have been extensively relying upon x86 / x64 architecture.
Suitable for portable devices, the architecture allows for easy and faster interaction with a device, a strong internet connection through 4G/5G technologies, and durable battery life.
It wasn’t until Apple debuted the M1 and M2 chips on their laptops, which made them faster and proved to deliver greater performance, that the tech world started to focus on integrating Arm technologies into ultraportable laptops.
What is Windows Arm?
Windows Arm is a type of Windows that employs Arm technologies, which allows for the installation of Arm-powered apps. From an UI perspective, Windows Arm (Windows 11 Arm) retains the same design, but delivers different and faster performances, compared to its standard x86 / x64 version. However, it comes with drawbacks, but we’ll talk about them later.
Naturally, for Windows Arm to work best it would need to be installed in an Arm-powered device, which could be a laptop, tablet, or mobile phone built in such a way it could support this type of Windows. Arm-powered devices are starting to get popular, with the Microsoft Surface devices being some of the best examples around.
Their main characteristic would be the Arm Systems on Chip (SoC) which, as Microsoft states, often include other key features such as a powerful CPU, GPU, Wi-Fi & mobile data networks, as well as Neural Processor Units (NPUs) for accelerating AI workloads.
Windows 10, and Windows 11 both support various types of Arm-based technology, with Windows 11 being designed to be an Arm operating system. Windows 10, for example, enables existing unmodified x86 apps to run on Arm devices, while Windows 11 adds the ability to run unmodified x64 Windows apps on Arm devices.
However, for the best results, and this includes superior performance, insane battery life, responsiveness, and so on, users should consider getting Arm-based apps and Arm-based software to run on Arm-based Windows, preferably on an Arm device.
Will Microsoft switch entirely to Windows on Arm in the future?
While Windows on Arm could be a good idea, it will take some time until it can be fully adopted, if it will. And it’s a big if.
There are several reasons why Microsoft won’t entirely switch to Windows on Arm, even though it’s faster, far more suited for mobility, and durable.
It can’t manage heavy processing: Windows on Arm runs best when used together with Arm-based apps. If these apps are also Windows native, even better. But for now, that’s about it. So, no gaming, no AAA titles on your Windows Arm laptop. Maybe, in time, it could happen, but that’s going to take a lot of time, which brings us to point 2.
Windows on Arm will lack consistency between hardware and software: What I’m trying to say by this is that different manufacturers are going to come up with different Arm-based hardware, and Microsoft will have to somehow build Windows on Arm to run well on all of them. That will also take some time.
Windows on Arm is best suited for professional settings: those who want ultramobile laptops that have a durable battery and are suited for light office work, such as document editing. Any demanding task is easily out of the question. Editing a video on an Arm-based laptop? Not anytime soon. But it could happen one day.
The market for Arm-based processors is still at the very beginning: Intel and AMD announced they will release Arm-based processors, and Qualcomm will also come up with Arm-based processors suited for laptops, but it take some years before these processors will be able to carry out demanding tasks.
Ultimately, it would not be good for business: Sure, M chips are excellent but it also means they last longer, and Mac devices will be durable. The same goes for Arm-based Windows laptops. It all sounds good, from a consumer perspective, but it would be a counterintuitive move, business-wise. Microsoft would have to come up with newer features that would be attractive enough to motivate consumers to purchase. And why do it, if your machine still works?
The conclusion: no, Windows on Arm is not going to replace the standard Windows, at least not anytime soon. By all means, if Windows on Arm proves to be the OS that makes our devices last longer, while also outperforming everything previously released, then yes, let it out already.
But it will take some time to get there, and Microsoft will have to think about it from a business-wise perspective, to avoid the risk of, you know, running out of business.
As gaming fanatics, one of our greatest fears is losing game progress because of an error like 4010 in Eversoul. All that hard work going down the drain can be scary but lucky for you, we went through the trial and error phase so that you don’t have to.
Causes of Eversoul error 4010
You already know that Eversoul is a mobile game but PC users can get around it by using emulators. Coincidentally, PC users are the most affected by this error and it all boils down to the emulator used. Other possible causes include an outdated game, age restrictions, and connection issues.
How can I fix error 4010 on Eversoul?
A few basic troubleshooting steps to help you get started include:
Ensure you have a working internet connection by trying with another device or doing the internet test.
Log out then log back into your account then restart your device.
1. Check for app updates
On your Android phone (Samsung in this case), locate the Google Play Store app and launch it.
Search for Eversoul and next to it, tap on the Update button if available.
2. Use another emulator
Eventhough you can download and play Android games on your Windows PC, they are often plagued by errors because they’re not natively designed to run on the Windows OS. Still, it is also possible that your emulator is the issue.
The best way to solve this problem is to use a different emulator like BlueStacks. We admit that setting up an emulator is no easy task so if one isn’t working and you’ve already tried with the other, move on to the next steps.
3. Roll back to an older version
Usually, app updates are supposed to come with bug fixes but sometimes, they bring the bugs. If this is the case, you can revert to an older version of the Eversoul app as you wait for an official fix.
The only issue is that you will not find the older version on your respective app store. You’ll therefore have to source it from a third-party vendor.
Since you cannot verify the authenticity of these apps, we recommend that you keep your antivirus close to check for any issues before you allow an app to be installed on your device.
NOTE
WindowsReport is not affiliated with Uptodown.com so ensure you do your due diligence before downloading from this site.
With the error 4010 on Eversoul, a number of users were logged out and asked to re-login but this time, to confirm if they were past the age of 13. Most games have an age restriction so if you do not meet these requirements, you may be locked out.
This may have been as a result of a new app update so simply clear the cache, and log back in again to see if there are any changes. You can also try a reinstall and see if it works.
5. Contact support
Kakao has a dedicated help page that covers a wide range of issues likely to occur while playing any of their games like Eversoul. You can scan through the page and see if the error 4010 has been addressed in any of their articles.
If not, you’re at liberty to contact them and give a detailed account of the issue. The form has an information list where you should fill in as much detail as possible for the developers to adequately address the problem.
In the meantime, make sure you check out our extensive library of recommended browser games you can play. These are much easier to play on your PC especially if you have limited storage space and they don’t need emulators.
That’s all we had for this article but if you have any other solution that worked for you, we’d love to hear it. Drop us a line below.
Sports fans are a special group of people so when catching up on the latest game and the error code 465 making an appearance on CBS, it is quite the ick. Unfortunately, we’ve experienced this error before but on the bright side, you can learn from us what works to eliminate it.
What is the CBS error code 465?
This is a subtle message that you’re trying to access content restricted in your area. CBS Sports is a geo-restricted app so if you’re not using a VPN or in an area flagged off, you’ll encounter this error.
How do I fix error code 465 on CBS?
Kickstart the troubleshooting process with the following preliminary checks:
Verify the CBS Sports server status from a reliable site like downdetector for any outages.
Check for any available updates for your CBS sports app, log out, then back in and retry.
1. Update your device’s OS
1.1 Android
Locate Settings on your device. (We’ll be using the Samsung model for this step).
Go to Software update.
Tap on Download and install.
Wait for the update to finish installing if available, and retry your video.
1.2 iPhone
Make sure that your device is connected to a power source and Wi-Fi.
Go to Settings > General.
Select Software Update.
Now tap on Download and Install.
Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the update.
1.3 Xbox
Press the Xbox button on your console and click on your account icon to open Settings.
Click on Devices and connections.
Select Accessories.
Click on your Xbox controller and select Update now and restart once it is finished.
2. Clear app cache
Tap on settings on your phone.
Next, tap on Apps.
Find the CBS Sports app and tap on it.
Scroll down and select Storage.
Tap on Clear data and Clear cache,then try again.
The steps here are for an Android device but if you have an Apple TV, iOS device, or Roku, the steps are somewhat similar when you want to delete the app cache to get rid of the error code 465 on CBS Sports.
3. Turn off your VPN
Press the Windows key and select Settings.
Next, select Network & internet and click on VPN in the right-side menu.
Select the VPN connection you want to disable, click on the drop-down and select Remove.
If your VPN is giving you problems, we recommend switching to a powerful VPN that can mask its IP address to avoid frequent disconnections.
4. Disable Proxy
Press the Start Menu icon and select Settings.
Click on Network & Internet on the left pane, then scroll down and click Proxy on the right pane.
Select Edit next to Use a proxy server option in the Manual proxy setup section, toggle off Use a proxy server and click on Save.
5. Reinstall the CBS Sports app
If the CBS error code 465 is persistent, you may need an overhaul of the application and a complete uninstallation and fresh install will achieve this.
Also, when reinstalling, ensure you download from the official sources. We understand the app is not available in the various app stores for some users because of the location restrictions but use a VPN to avail it instead of downloading from third-party sites.
Open the phone Settings, and go to General management.
Tap on Reset.
Now, select Reset network settings from the list of options.
Tap on Reset settings to confirm.
6.2 iPhone
Open the iPhone Settings, and go to General.
Tap on Transfer or Reset iPhone.
Tap Reset at the bottom.
Select Reset Network Settings from the list of options.
Enter the device’s passcode to confirm the reset.
7. Try another device
Although the app offers the same content across the board, you may find that the CBS Sports app is not working on Xbox but works on your Android device. This means that the error code 465 may be device-related.
If so, you’ll have to troubleshoot issues with your device rather than the app. Most of the time a restart or firmware update does the job.
8. Contact CBS customer support
If none of the above solutions have been fruitful, it’s time for reinforcement from the masters. Contact the CBS Sports support team and describe the error in detail. Share a screenshot if possible, your country you’re trying to stream from and the type of device you’re using.
With such errors, the more information you give, the higher possibility that the team will be able to come up with a solution fast enough.
Finally, sports apps are in plenty and you can catch all the action from a wide range. WatchESPN and Fox Sports Go are some of our personal favorites so ensure you check them out to avoid missing out.
