As Microsoft is getting ready to kick off its annual Build developer conference tomorrow, the company is once again teasing some big changes coming to Windows 10 in the near future. In a recent job listing spotted by Windows Latest, the company said that it was on “a multi-year journey to revolutionize the Windows UX platform.”
The job listing is for a Program Manager to work for the Interactive eXperiences Platform (IXP) Team in Windows, which works on many Windows features including the Start Menu, Windows Ink, and more. The offer also mentioned Project Reunion, Microsoft’s latest attempt to combine Win32 and UWP app development that was announced at last year’s Build conference
We have a great opportunity for a Program Manager in our team to help define, design, plan, build major improvements to the Windows UX platform, and deliver future OS technologies and features via Project Reunion. You will help many parties learn and adopt our new platform innovations, including 1st party OS and application teams across Microsoft, as well as many 3rd party app vendors and developer communities. You will also incorporate issues, feedback, and asks into future improvements and technologies.
If you have yet to register for this year’s Build conference, you can do so on this page and browse the session catalog to build your own schedule. Even though Build has been pretty light on consumer news in recent years, there will be several sessions dedicated to Windows this week.
Microsoft is turning its dual-screen Surface Duo into a much better handheld device for Xbox Cloud gaming. Indeed, Microsoft has updated its Xbox Game Pass app for Android to improve support for custom touch controls on dual screen devices, with Surface Duo owners now being able to use one of the screens as a controller.
These improved dual-screen controls for cloud-enabled Xbox games have been available in the Xbox Game Pass Beta app for Android since March, but they’re now generally available for owners of dual-screen devices.. Microsoft’s Chief Hardware Officer Panos Panay himself announced the news on Twitter earlier today, highlighting that over 50 cloud-enabled games currently support touch controls.
A very cool update goes live for #SurfaceDuo customers today! Working with @Xbox we've put touch controls on to the second screen. More than 50 games are available to play with touch for @xboxGamePass Ultimate Members. pic.twitter.com/ZPIqQZXxS4
Touch controls are probably not as precise and convenient as an Xbox controller, though Microsoft now allows developers to create custom touch controls for every cloud-enabled Xbox game. This can really help to make console games feel more “native” on mobile devices, and the Surface Duo’s dual-screen form factor probably makes it one of the best handheld devices for playing Xbox games.
If you own a Surface Duo and want to try playing Xbox games on it, you’ll need to sign up for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to get access to a growing catalog of cloud-enabled games. Not all of them support touch controls yet, but games like Minecraft Dungeons, Sea of Thieves, Gears 5, Slay the Spire, and many more already do.
Buying a new monitor can be a tricky task. There are a lot of things you need to think about, be it size, display resolution, or even the type of panel being used on the display. Then, on the other end of the spectrum (at your job) your IT admin has to think about what’s right for the ever-changing needs of yourself and the rest of the workforce.
With Dell recently claiming that 69% of IT admins are expected to increase their budgets for meeting room technologies, I had a lot of questions about the best advice for choosing monitors and even webcams, too. To get those questions answered, I was offered the chance to sit down on a Teams call with Dell Displays product manager Mike Turner. Here’s an inside look at our discussion.
What’s your advice about picking the right monitor?
One of the first questions I had for Turner is the best advice for choosing a new monitor. After all, with the pandemic driving the work-from-home numbers to new levels, monitor sales are on the boom. There are also a lot of different monitors you can buy, from affordable to ultrawide and even gaming.
I’ve already reviewed a bunch of Dells, and Dell has an entire catalog of displays available on its website, too. He tells me that monitor choices all come down to how the monitor will be used holistically in the workforce or at home.
“What I mean by that is if this is a hybrid device, then be thoughtful about how this device will work in that environment. Consider the different types of roles it could play,” said Turner.
Turner and I then went on to discuss some of the other things that go into picking a monitor. He tells me it’s all about the types of PCs it will be connected to, the type of work done on it, or if it’s a mix of productivity and gaming.
Funny enough, he pointed to a scenario I’m familiar with. He mentioned that someone who might be crunching spreadsheets or writing by day might also be a gamer by night. These folks might want to consider things like support for AMD FreeSync or Nvidia G-Sync when choosing a monitor.
But on the other end of the story, for IT admins, Turner tells me that Dell uses data to check on purchase decisions. He thinks people really should consider the size and the resolution together when choosing a monitor, rather than independently.
“I am going to think about the size and the resolution. 27 inch full HD could be great for me. Things look a little bigger than on a 22 or 24 inch full HD. I can see it clearly and because I can see it clearly the technology blends into the background. It becomes unobtrusive. My experience is focused on the work rather than how I’m looking at it,” said Turner.
Other factors that go into monitors include the quality of the visuals. For creatives who prefer the best visual quality, Dell’s UltraSharp monitors are best for their deeper color panels and brighter illumination. It’s something that Turner himself takes personally.
“I got three kids now and they’re almost out of the nest. I like to be able to really see my kids looking like they look in real life on the screen. I get a little bit more color, and I can appreciate the color I took in the photo more on the Ultrasharp,” said Turner.
Which webcam works best with monitors or laptops?
I recently reviewed the Dell 27 Video Conferencing Monitor, and part of the reason I loved it had to do with the webcam. With a wide-angle lens and 5-megapixel sensors, it was quite a pleasure to use with Teams, Skype, Zoom, and beyond.
However, not all monitors come with webcams built-in. Sometimes, people are seeking to buy separate webcams for laptops or displays so they can make the most out of video conferencing. That’s why my second question for Turner related to picking the right webcam. According to Turner, the number one pro tip about using webcams relates to lighting.
“I have three different cameras that I use. I have a small LED light, I have that mounted directly behind the camera so that the light source is seeing me from the same angle as the camera. I want to communicate visually, which is a big thing about collaboration is reading facial expressions, and if I have your interest,” said Turner.
Other than illumination, Turner also says you need to think about how you want to join meetings, and if they’re pre-recorded or live. This can shape the resolution you end up selecting. Interestingly enough, he went as far as to mention that your internet speed can impact your webcam performance.
“I’ve done testing with all different kinds of sensors and Teams and Zoom and I can tell you that you can have a 25-megapixel sensor, and your upload speeds could throttle you down to 645 by 360 or something like that in terms of resolution, so I’ll think about my internet connection as well as the camera,” said Turner.
Other ways of picking a webcam can include how easy it is to use, how easy it is to set up, according to Tuner. This is why many webcams are plug-and-play, without the need for software or CDs.
How are meeting spaces changing due to the pandemic?
With webcams and displays understood, my conversation with Turner took a turn to focus on the workforce itself. A lot of meeting spaces are changing because of the pandemic, and some companies are adopting hybrid work from home and in-person scenarios.
According to Dell, IT admins also want technology that drives a seamless experience in the meeting space. Basically, they’re looking for a fast and fluid experience. However, Dell’s research shows that when it comes to conference rooms and other shared spaces, it is a big struggle to find an intuitive, uncomplicated experience.
On this matter, Turner tells me that there are different elements to think about. The first is the fact that there always have been people who weren’t in a company’s main office. The second is making sure that people who are not in the same geography as the office, feel just as included with those who are. A third is a need for smaller conference rooms that hold fewer people. Turner explained that this is something going in at Dell.
“So in our example at Dell, we have different offices around the country and around the world and you’ve always been kind of working with people in other offices, right?” But now more and more people are not going to return to a traditional working environment or at least not return full-time So people will spend more time not being in the same physical space,” said Turner.
As a solution to this problem, Turner says is that you need a camera so everyone can see each other, and remember what everyone looks like, with a chance to connect and see what they’re doing and using their hands. “Using gear with the camera is going to be big, whether it’s in the conference room, or people are together or it’s at the individual endpoints.”
When it comes to conference rooms, meanwhile, Turner surprised me with something I did not expect. He says that instead of having large conference rooms that can hold 25 people, many of Dell’s customers now want smaller rooms that can hold 5. “It is not about the rooms being smaller, but it’s more about more places for people to collaborate, as it’s unlikely everyone will be in the same place again,” said Turner.
How do Slack/Teams fit in with new monitors?
The Dell 27 video conferencing monitor was designed with the conference room in mind, so I was curious what else Dell thinks about when it comes to the boom of Zoom and Teams. Turner says that Dell is always thinking about how the monitor or the device is going to work with Teams, Zoom, Slack, and other software.
“We’re not really wanting to tell folks the strategy you’ve got to follow. We want to look at global companies and say, you’ve got a reason for what you’re done, and we just want to support you and make sure that we are.”
Indeed, a good example of this is the Teams certified hardware. As I said in my review, it works with whatever software you want it with, because the camera, speaker, and microphone enumerate as standard USB devices.
“I think that we found a great way to straddle the line of the ability to provide a great solution for teams well at the same time acknowledging that people are going to run all kinds of stuff,” said Turner.
Dell is always listening
Our conversation ended with a look at how Dell takes feedback into consideration and how it’s building new products. Turner tells me that there’s a lot of ways in which this happens. There’s a process by which IT purchasers can opt into an IT administrator pool and answer questions about the needs of an enterprise.
There’s also a customer advisory council. Here is where customers come in to meet with the design and user experiences team to see Dell’s vision for the next three years and then take their feedback.
The other two pieces of the critical feedback puzzle include a sales advisory board, and social media listening posts. It’s here where people through Dell comb through your feedback. Even Turner does his part.
“I’m on the call with customers probably 15 or 20 hours right, so I’m literally talking to big customers for 30 minutes an hour two hours at a time about what do you want? What? You need what do we get right what could we improve what could we change how are you using this and so those interactions? I’m just one person multiply that by you know, all the people around the world and we’re getting that feedback.”
The built-in password manager in Microsoft Edge is getting a new update that should help users stay protected online. As spotted by Reddit user u/Leopeva64-2, the improved password manager is now available as a preview feature to Edge Insiders in the latest Canary channel build (92.0.895.0 or higher).
The company has recently added a new feature to its Microsoft Edge Insider roadmap to indicate that the browser will soon warn users about weak or reused passwords. “Beginning in Microsoft Edge v.91, we will give feedback to you on which of your passwords are weak and/or reused across accounts. This will allow you to stay informed about your security on the web,” Microsoft explained on the roadmap.
Interestingly, Microsoft Edge users will now see a new “Password Health column” beside their saved passwords, which allows them to quickly glance at the health of all passwords and take appropriate actions. It contains a health bar that informs users if their password is weak or reused across multiple sites and apps. The Password Health column also shows an alert if the password has been leaked in a data breach.
The password manager in Edge is also adding new password sorting options. This means that Edge users will now be able to sort the passwords alphabetically or based on their health. They can use the filter options to display only reused, leaked, or weak passwords.
In addition to the new password protection capabilities, Microsoft Edge is expanding the dictionary tool to allow users to look up definitions while reading a webpage. Users will be able to enable this feature by heading to Settings >> Appearance and turning on the “Show mini menu when selecting text” toggle button.
The Edge Insider team started testing a similar functionality back in March this year, but it was only limited to PDF documents at that time. As of this writing, the dictionary tool is gradually is rolling out to select Edge Insiders, and it’s not available for everyone just yet.
Conan Exiles is a popular open-world game that takes place in a Conan the Barbarian universe. This is a multiplayer game, and to play it, you need to connect to a server.
Many players choose to host their own private server, but many reported that their Conan Exiles private server is not showing up. This can be a problem, but in this guide, we’ll show you how to fix that.
Another efficient workaround for this issue is to use a dedicated VPN to modify your online location and access the server like that.
What do I do if Conan Exiles private server is not showing up?
1. Use a reliable server
If you’re hosting your own Conan Exiles server, you need to make sure that you’re using reliable hosting, such as Host Havoc. This hosting service allows you to have up to 70 slots for Conan Exiles.
The server is incredibly simple to use, and it comes with mod installers, as well as FTP and web-based file access. If you’re a more advanced user, you’ll be pleased to know that command line support is also there.
Host Havoc also offers free DDOS protection, 99.9% network update and it has servers on 11 different locations around the world, thus ensuring a fast, and lag-free gaming experience.
Host Havoc
Host Havoc is a fast and reliable server hosting service for Conan Exiles that will provide lag-free experience to all your players.
This is a pretty simple solution, but few users reported that this workaround can help if Conan Exiles private server not showing up.
This issue only affects certain hostingservers, and to avoid it, make sure that you’re using reliable hosting for your gameserver.
3. Delete all mods
Connect to the hostingserver and open the control panel.
Locate the list of installed mods and delete all mods that aren’t updated.
After deleting the mods, check if the problem is still there. Apparently, this issue appeared after an update, and in case your mods aren’t updated as well, your server won’t appear.
So, if your Conan Exiles private server is not showing up, you can fix the problem simply by removing the problematic mods or by updating them.
4. Wait it out
Sometimes it takes a couple of days for your server to show up in the server list. According to users, it takes about 2-3 days for the game to recognize and index your server.
Currently, there’s no way to make this process faster, so you’ll need to wait for a couple of days before your server appears on the list.
Alternatively, players can connect to your server by using the server’s IP address.
5. Connect to the server using its IP address
In Conan Exiles
Start the game and go to Server Browser.
Now click on Direct Connect.
Enter the IP address, port, password (if required) and click OK.
Now you should be able to connect to the server.
Steam
Open Steam.
Go to View and selectServersfrom the list.
Navigate to the Favorites tab and click Add a serverbutton.
Enter the IP address and the port of the server and click on Find Games At This Address.
Select the server, and choose Add This Address To Favorites.
Now you should be able to select the server from the Favorites tab and quickly join it.
These are just a couple of simple solutions that you can use if Conan Exiles private server not showing up, so we encourage you to try them.

If that doesn’t work, you can always switch to new antivirus software, but that should be used only as a last resort. Aside from this error, a critical DLL file like Avastip.dll may be missing.

Locky is a vicious ransomware launched in 2016. Although relatively young, Locky has already managed to make a name for itself — and not a positive one.
This ransomware is back in the spotlight due to the recent Facebook .svg.file threat. As a quick reminder, Locky has been spreading like wildfire over the social network lately, affecting many Facebook users. The virus evades Facebook’s whitelisting by pretending to be a .SVG image file and is mainly sent from compromised Facebook accounts.
We’re sure this is not Locky’s last major attack, therefore it’s very important to know how to remove this ransomware from your computer. Of course, prevention is better than cure and we recommend you install one of these anti-hacking tools on your machine as soon as possible.
After all, at this moment, it’s impossible to decrypt Locky files. Therefore, its victims have no other choice but buy the decryption key if they want to get back their files.
Remove Locky ransomware from your computer
1. Run a malware removal program
Download and install an anti-malware program and scan your computer. Malwarebytes is one of the most reliable and powerful tools, and you can download its trial version and install it in just a couple of minutes.
If for some reason you don’t want to download Malwarebytes, you can also try one of the following tools: Hitman Pro, Spybot Search & Destroy or SUPERAntiSpyware. Also, don’t forget to run a full system scan using your main antivirus program.
2. Start Windows in Safe mode with Networking
Press SHIFT + Restart from the Sign in screen. Windows 10 will reboot.
Go to Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup settings and click the Restart button.
Once your PC restarts, choose Safe Mode with Networking by pressing the appropriate key.
Log in and download an antimalware solution. Install the tool and launch a full system scan to remove any remnants of the ransomware.
3. Perform a system restore
A system restore allows you to undo unwanted system changes by reverting your computer to a previous working state. In other words, this action will restore your system’s configuration to a point prior to Locky having infiltrated your computer. This solution works if you already created a restore point on your computer prior to getting infected.
Right-click the Start button > select Control Panel
Search Control Panel for Recovery
Select Recovery > Open System Restore > Next
Choose the restore point related to the problematic ransomware attack > select Next > Finish.
We hope these three workarounds help you get rid of Locky. If you’ve come across other workarounds to remove Locky ransomware, list the troubleshooting steps in the comment section below.
As with many of the Windows 10 updates, issues that were not expected are beginning to slowly come to light.
The affectedd party this time is the Chrome browser, which seems to inexplicably crash. This new bug is affecting quite a large number of users.
Google Chrome 90 keeps crashing after Windows update
After applying the latest Windows 10 update, many users have taken to social media in order to report that Chrome displays some unexpected behavior.
According to the Reddit post, this issue is isolated to devices that run on the Windows 10 operating system. No reports of this same problem affecting macOS or Linux have been submitted.
This is very suspect, I wonder if we will find anything out from google.
From what we understand, there is no talk of a certain pattern yet. Only after loading the extension or while the extensions are loading, it appears that Chrome will suddenly crash on Windows 10.
Sometimes the browser launches properly but the extensions, settings pages, and tabs keep constantly crashing.
What can I do to fix this Chrome error?
If you are experiencing this sort of issue, don’t panic, as there are some steps you can follow and put this nightmare behind you.
Solutions range from simply uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome, disabling Sandbox, clearing your browser cache, or running a full system antivirus scan.
For a more in-depth approach to solving this issue, check our extensive fix article. By going through the instructions we have prepared for you, this problem will be dealt with.

If you’re keen on finding out the latest news regarding antivirus solutions along with both online and offline security measures, this news will appeal to you: Four months ago, Avast acquired AVG.
This power move was expected by some, but very few people were actually expecting the new company to release a new suite so soon after the takeover. As far as security suites go, four months is a relatively short period of time to put one together.
That brings us to the recent release of an AVG 2017 suite featuring multiple services: AVGAntiVirus Free, AVG TuneUp and AVG Internet Security.
You might think that you’re getting products entirely of the brand’s making. However, it was only reasonable that Avast put its mark on them. And no one is complaining either because we’re talking about Avast’s CyberCapture file scan system, a cloud feature now incorporated into AVGAntiVirus and AVG Internet Security. This defensive measure will enhance your machine’s protection against zero day threats.
The new mode feature featured in the AVG 2017 suite is called Passive Mode and it is extremely useful when you have multiple antivirus software installed on your machine. AVG will detect what other protection you have then use the new Passive Mode so that both software can run without interfering with each other.
Moving on to DNS and IP related issues, you can also count on AVG Internet Security to take precautions by verifying IP addresses through secure DNS channels. This will combat fake website redirections and improve overall security.
There are other features as well, and the new AVG still retains the brand’s Free version. That being said, you can give it a try yourself and see if it works for you.
Twitter was hit by a bug just recently and it revealed in a blog post that the platform recorded user passwords in plaintext in their internal system. The social media platform fixed the flaw, but experts recommend that you should change your password right now. There are a lot of useful password managers on the market and you could use one as well. As an efficient software, we recommend Efficient Password Manager Network (free download) which will make sure that all your data stays safe.
Twitter requests users to change their passwords
The platform is currently requesting all users to change their passwords and the platform did the right thing by letting everyone know what happened instead of hiding it. Twitter notified both desktop and mobile users by some have reported lags and errors which might be triggered by the fact that everyone is trying to change their accounts at once.
Twitter chief technology officer Parag Agrawal said that “I’m sorry that this happened,” after posting the announcement.
We are sharing this information to help people make an informed decision about their account security. We didn’t have to, but believe it’s the right thing to do.
Set up a two-factor authentication for Twitter
As we already said, you can use a trusted password manager such as Efficient Password Manager Network. To change your password all you have to do is head over to Settings and privacy – Password and change it. It’s also recommended to set up a two-factor authentication for Twitter. In the Security subsection from Settings and privacy – Account, you have to click on Review your login verification methods. After entering the new password, you will see a Login verification screen where you can configure everything to receive second-factor codes via SMS.
Twitter did not comment on how long the plaintext passwords would be exposed.

This update only affects the AIDA64 Extreme version, but I guess an upcoming release will come up with support for the other versions, as well. Tamás Miklós, managing director of FinalWire, said the following:
When we release an update, it’s always one of our priorities to ensure that AIDA64 seamlessly supports the needs of home users, system integrators and sysadmins, so that they can use our software on the latest hardware and operating systems. We believe that PC users will migrate to Windows 10 and Intel Skylake in great numbers, that’s why providing support for these was our top priority. Porting our app to Tizen was a real challenge for us in programming terms as this ecosystem is still in its infancy. Sure, we don’t expect this edition to become a huge hit, but we are glad to be among the first to offer a great app for the users of this promising platform.
AIDA64 Extreme Edition 5.30 and AIDA64 Extreme Edition Portable 5.30 are both available as function-limited 30-day trials, with their prices starting from $39.95 for an AIDA64 Extreme Edition non-commercial license. Go ahead and download them from the official websiteto see if you want to diagnose and benchmark your Windows 10 computer or tablet.

Microsoft has just released the Windows Insider build 21387 for Dev Channel Insiders, which includes no new features and actually removes two things from the OS. The soon-to-be-retired Internet Explorer 11 is gone in this build, and so is the new “Eco mode” feature in Task Manager that made its debut in an April 21 flight.
The new Eco Mode in Task Manager could throttle process resources for certain apps to give the priority to other activities, but the Windows Insider team has removed it in this build “in order to refine the experience and address several issues thanks to Windows Insider feedback.” Today’s build 21387 also brings various bug fixes and you can check the full list below:
Changes and Improvements
The Internet Explorer 11 desktop application is now retired as of this Insider Preview build. For additional details see https://aka.ms/IEmodeblog.
We are turning off the “Eco mode” feature in Task Manager in order to refine the experience and address several issues thanks to Windows Insider feedback.
Fixes
We fixed an issue in the previous flight where during the upgrade and in the welcome screens displayed after first sign in, the text was unexpectedly using the Times New Roman font.
We fixed an issue resulting in some Insiders seeing errors when trying to launch Notepad via the Run dialog.
We fixed an issue for WSL users, preventing some Linux GUI apps from launching correctly via the shortcut that is automatically added to Start menu.
We fixed an issue resulting in the reset or change PIN workflows not working.
We fixed an issue where for some Insiders, night light was immediately turning off after being enabled.
We fixed an issue in recent flights where you might unexpectedly get a “We can’t find an audio device” error when trying to play audio from a connected Bluetooth speaker.
We fixed an issue where explorer.exe might crash after repeated use of the touchpad gesture for switching Virtual Desktops.
We fixed two issues impacting the ability to print using USB printers.
We fixed an issue resulting in the Windows Update page potentially becoming unresponsive after clicking Pause Updates.
We fixed an issue causing some devices to fail with error code 0xc1900101. While this fix will resolve the problem on some devices, there is a second issue causing the same error code (noted below). We’re working on a fix for this issue as well.
We fixed an issue where some devices were re-offered the .NET update after it is installed. After taking this build you should no longer be reoffered the .NET update. If you experience and issue getting Build 21387 because of a pending .NET update, you can work around the issue by pausing then un-pausing updates.
We fixed an issue where some devices would crash with a DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION error when using OneDrive Personal Vault.
We fixed a ctfmon.exe crash when using ATOK (a third-party IME) if reconversion was triggered in some win32 apps.
Known issues
The Windows Camera App currently does not respect the default brightness setting set via the new Camera Settings page.
We’re investigating an issue where elements of Search (including the search box in File Explorer) are no longer displaying correctly in dark theme.
[News and interests] We’re investigating an issue where the flyout may occasionally flash in the top left corner of your screen after clicking the button on your taskbar.
We’re working on a fix for a second issue causing some devices to fail when updating to this build with error code 0xc1900101. When the update fails, it will roll back to the previous build. If you are encountering this issue, we recommend pausing updates until we release a build with the fix.
It’s pretty rare for the Windows Insider team to release new builds on a Friday, and today’s flight is definitely a minor one. With Microsoft’s Build developer conference set kick off next week on May 25, we hope that the Windows Insider team will use this opportunity to flight another build with interesting new features.
“The impact of Covid-19 has forced students to use more digital learning tools and incorporate their web browser into everyday learning. Students rely on the browser to help them find solutions to their studies, including math. To help these students on their learning journey, we are excited to announce that Microsoft Math Solver will be available as a preview feature starting with Microsoft Edge 91 stable,” the Microsoft Edge Team explained.
To try Math Solver, you’ll need to head to the Settings menu (…) available in the top right corner of Microsoft Edge, select the “More Tools” option, and then click Math Solver. Now open a math problem and use the Math Solver selection tool to highlight it. Finally, click on the “Solve button” to get an instant solution in the sidebar. You can also click the “Show solution steps” button to check the step-by-step instructions.
In addition to the selection tool, students can also use the keyboard to type the problem statement in the Math Solver section manually. The Math Solver feature also provides learning resources, including online videos, quizzes, and worksheets, to help the students better understand a specific topic.
Math Solver is currently only available for Insiders as a preview feature in Microsoft Edge 91 or higher, although Microsoft says that it’s “exploring the possibility of including the feature permanently” in an upcoming stable release. As usual, the Edge Insider team will be collecting feedback to improve the experience for students looking for help in a hybrid learning environment.
If you’ve ever looked through the running processes of your Windows 10 PC and noticed a running process called RSGUPD.exe but don’t know what it is or where it’s from, you’re not the only one.
This application is identified as malware and comes bundled with the Remo Software. Even though the system impact on resources for this application is low, having a malware file on your PC is never a good idea. RSGUPD.exe constantly tries to open a support gateway, and it stops you from being able to boot your system in Safe Mode:
For these reasons, in this article, we will explore the best way to remove this malware from your PC once and for all and get full access to your computer. Read on to find out how.
How can I remove RSGUPD.exe from my PC?
1. Update your Antivirus software
Make sure you have the latest version of your antivirus installed.
If security definitions are out of date, be sure to update them as well.
3. Manually end any ‘rsg’ processes and remove the source folder
Right-click on your Windows taskbar, and select ‘Task Manager’.
Inside the Task Manager window, select the ‘Processes‘ tab, and search for any applications that have ‘rsg’ in their name.
Select each of these processes, and click on ‘End Task’ for each of them.
After you’ve closed all of them, navigate to C: -> ProgramData -> RSG , and delete all the files named ‘rsg’.
Note: Some programs from that folder might try to run again, so please be consistent with this method to achieve the best results.
This article explored some of the best-proven methods to deal with RSGUPD.exe malware running on your system. This malware stops you from being able to log into Windows Safe Mode.
If you want to know more about various processes, don’t hesitate to check our what is rsmui.exe guide.
Following the steps presented in this list will surely help you solve this issue. Please make sure to let us know if it did by using the comment section below.
Now click on the Troubleshoot option from the left pane and select Additional troubleshooters from the right pane.
Click on Internet Connections and hit the Run the troubleshooter button.
Perform the steps provided on the screen to go through with the procedure.
Using the dedicated troubleshooter is the first thing to do in this situation. And although it may be considered basic, it helped a lot of users fix their connection.
2. Verify the connection
Firstly, let’s eliminate other possible causes for this occurrence. There are so many various reasons why your PC is unable to connect to the Internet or the Wi-Fi network of choice.
So, we advise you to follow the instructions below, and check for the alternative causes for this burning issue:
Restart your PC.
Restart your modem and router.
Use the LAN cable instead of Wi-Fi and look for changes.
Boot in Safe Mode with Networking mode and try connecting.
Run the dedicated Windows Troubleshooter.
Update router’s/modem’s firmware.
On the other, if you’re prompted by the antivirus itself and informed about the blocked network, subtly continue reading.
3. Check firewall exceptions
The antivirus or antimalware solution can’t block the internet connection per se. However, with the unifying of various security solutions into one package, we got ourselves third-party firewalls.
Those firewalls may be blocking the Internet or Wi-Fi connections. Sometimes by mistake, other times because of the justified suspicion that your network isn’t safe.
In order to regulate that, you can reconnect your router, reset all equipment like we already advised, and look for changes.
If those actions are to no avail, make sure to thoroughly inspect the Firewall part of your antimalware suite.
You can create exceptions to let individual programs (like browsers and e-mail clients) to communicate through the firewall.
This procedure varies, so make sure to google your antimalware or check the Help section in order to find out how to do it.
In addition, some users reported that large updates caused issues for various antivirus solutions. Make sure to update it again and, hopefully, the developers will provide timely patches.
4. Reset the antivirus to default settings
If you meddled with the implemented firewall on your own or a peculiar update changed something and thus blocked the internet access, you should just reset the antivirus to its default values.
That seems like the best way to resolve the problem at hand. It’s not an unusual practice for antivirus solutions to go bonkers and, with the introduction of secondary security tools, that practice flourished.
Reset everything to default values, restart your PC and look for changes. If you’re still unable to connect, there’s still one thing you can do.
5. Disable the antivirus or use another one
We can’t call this a solution but rather a workaround, but you might want to disable your antivirus or go for an alternative.
Of course, there’s always an option to contact the antivirus support and ask for help.
Maybe there’s a bug at hand with the current iteration and you pointing towards it should help developers deal with it swiftly.
If you find out that the antivirus was the problem blocking the Internet access, we strongly suggest changing your antivirus with less problematic one.
The security solution recommended below will not interfere with your system or your connection and it’s less prone to errors such as this one.
This antivirus is perfect for the modern people who use the Internet for shopping, banking, work and communication but are aware of the online risks involved.
TotalAV
Try using a solution that protects your privacy and security without getting in the way of your connection or system.
Finally, if none of the previous steps proved fruitful, the only solution that we can offer is the reinstallation of the antivirus solution.
Now, before you navigate to Control Panel and uninstall the antivirus, have in mind that most of the supporting applications that come with the suit are not really essential.
Meaning: Windows Firewall is quite sufficient and you don’t need a third-party firewall unless you’re a knowledgeable user who can take advantage of extra features.
So, reinstall your antivirus, but consider installing only the antivirus this time. That should resolve your problem and you should be able to connect to the internet just like before.
In case you’re unable to do so with the standard procedure, make sure to boot in the Safe Mode and try again.
That should do it. We hope this helped you resolve your issues with firewall or antivirus blocking the Internet.
If you’re tired of the problems caused by your present antivirus, you can also take a look at our selection of the top antiviruses with unlimited licenses and pick one from there.
The number of ransomware attacks is growing at an alarming rate. And so is the cost to businesses.
The estimated cost of the Wannacry ransomware that hit between 200,000 and 300,000 computers in 150 countries in May this year is estimated to climb past $5 billion, a huge amount.
The damage from ransomware attacks can take the form of data theft, corrupted files, and extended downtime while systems are cleaned and secured.
But the damage can also extend to costs that cannot be easily quantified in financial terms, like dampened consumer confidence.
And don’t think that it’s only the large pharmaceuticals and banks that are a target. Everyone is at risk and Paragon can provide a tool to the rescue.
Needless to say, the damage from a ransomware attack like Wannacry for smaller, not very well-resourced businesses can be catastrophic.
How to protect my data from ransomware?
That your entire computer systems must be securely backed up is, thus, absolutely important. The Paragon Backup & Recovery is designed as just the solution for your backup needs.
This tool isn’t revolutionary, which isn’t surprising for this free version. But it will do a decent job backing up your files and folders.
Once downloaded, a wizard will prompt you to choose the drive or files you would like to backup.
You will have a choice to save your files to a local destination, another computer on the network, or an external storage device.
The tool comes with a convenient scheduler that allows your backup to run almost on autopilot – when you log on or startup your computer.
You can also set it to run the backup sequence every week, fortnight, or monthly. Another welcome feature is the File Transfer Module that enables you to migrate files from another location on the same network to your computer.
Perform differential backups
Perhaps the one feature that will nudge you towards the commercial version of the tool is the differential backup. You won’t find that feature with the free version.
With this functionality, you won’t have to backup files that you have already backed up. Ideally, only new and files updated since the last backup should be backed up.
Otherwise, the backup will take longer every time you back up.To restore your files all you will need is to reload your old drive or file folders with your backup file.
If for some reason you can’t access these, the tool will create a recovery disc that you can use to boot your computer and restore your old files.
If some of the features you need while backing-up or recovering are locked, you can always buy the product for a full-throttle experience.
And speaking about recovery, the restore wizard will help you retrieving entire systems, disks, partitions, or just a selection of files depending on your specific needs.
You can even restore a backup of an entire system on different hardware completely with just a few clicks from your part.
It also has a free version that you can download from the official website and test it on your PC.
Paragon Backup & Recovery
Keep your data and your business safe with this excellent back-up and recovery tool.

Speccy is a useful application, but sometimes Speccy can crash on your PC and cause many other problems. If you’re having any problems with Speccy on your PC, in today’s article we’ll show you how to properly fix them.
Sometimes certain applications can crash on your PC, and while this is somewhat normal, if an application is constantly crashing, that can be a problem. Many users use Speccy and they reported frequent crashing. Speaking of this issue, here are some common problems that users reported:
Speccy crash on startup – Sometimes this issue can occur if you’re using a 64-bit of Speccy. To fix the problem, switch to a 32-bit version and the problem should be resolved.
Speccy crashes computer –This problem can occur if your Speccy installation is corrupted. To fix the problem, reinstall it and the issue should be resolved.
Speccy keeps crashing – Sometimes the Speccy can keep crashing on your PC if you don’t have the administrative privileges. Simply start the application as an administrator and the problem should be resolved.
Many users reported that Speccy has some issues with 64-bit versions of Windows. The 64-bit of Speccy has some compatibility problems with Windows 10, and that can lead to crashes and other various issues.
To avoid this problem, users are suggesting using a 32-bit version of Speccy instead since that version doesn’t suffer from this problem. When you install Speccy, you install both 32-bit and 64-bit versions on your PC, so you won’t have to download Speccy again.
To check if this solution works, navigate to Speccy’s installation directory. Now you should notice both Speccy.exe and Speccy64.exe files. Run the former and check if everything works. If it does, you just have to modify your Speccy shortcut on your desktop so it can always run the 32-bit version.
To do that, just follow these steps:
Right-click the Speccy shortcut on your desktop and choose Properties from the menu.
Locate the Target field and change Speccy64.exe to Speccy.exe. After doing that, click Apply and OK to save changes.
Once you make these changes, your shortcut will always start the 32-bit version of Speccy and the problem should be resolved.
2. Check your antivirus
According to users, sometimes your antivirus can interfere with certain applications, and that can cause this and many other errors to occur. If Speccy crashes on your PC, try changing your antivirus settings and disabling certain features.
If that doesn’t help, your next step would be to disable your antivirus altogether. In some instances, the only way to fix this issue is to uninstall your antivirus, so you might want to try that. Even if you remove Windows 10, you should remain protected by Windows Defender, so there’s no need to worry about your safety.
Antivirus can sometimes block certain applications even if they don’t pose a security threat, and if Speccy works after removing your antivirus, perhaps you should consider using different antivirus software.
In order to benefit from top-ranked security against advanced malware, there is valuable software that provides high detection services, dangerous malware removal, or other cyber threats like phishing or spyware.
Additionally, you will find highly useful antiviruses that are also compatible with your system and do not interrupt other processes or applications.
If you want all-rounded protection from consistent solutions, consider the most efficient antivirus tools available right now.
3. Try running the application as administrator
If Speccy crashes on your PC, the problem might be the lack of administrative privileges. Sometimes in order to use certain applications properly, you need to run them as an administrator. If Speccy crashes on your PC, try running it as administrator by doing the following:
Locate the Speccy shortcut, and right-click it.
Choose Run as administrator from the menu.
If Speccy starts without problems, it means that the administrative privileges are the problem. Basically, you can avoid this problem by always running the application with administrative privileges using the steps above.
If you want, you can force the application to run with administrative privileges by doing the following:
Right-click Speccy’s shortcut and choose Properties from the menu.
Navigate to the Compatibility tab. Now check Run this program as an administrator and click Apply and OK.
After doing that, Speccy will always start with administrative privileges and the problem should be resolved.
4. Make sure you have the latest version of Speccy installed
If Speccy crashes on your Windows 10PC, it’s possible that the issue was caused by a glitch or a bug in the application. These kinds of issues can happen, and the developers are usually quick to fix them.
If Speccy crashes on your PC, check for the updates from the application or simply download the latest version and install it. By doing so, you’ll force Speccy to update, and once the application is updated, the problem will be completely resolved.
5. Reinstall Speccy
According to users, if Speccy crashes on your PC, the problem might be your installation. Sometimes the Speccy installation can become corrupted, and this can cause all sorts of issues. To fix those problems, it’s required that you reinstall Speccy completely.
First, you need to uninstall the application. While you can uninstall Speccy like any other application, we would advise a different approach. Certain applications can leave leftover files and registry entries, even after you remove them.
These files and entries can still interfere with your system, therefore it’s important to remove them as well. While you can do so manually, we would advise you to use third-party software such as Revo Uninstaller. It uninstalls many software leftovers as well, which is a great option.
This is a special software optimized for removing applications, and by using it you can remove any application from your PC, along with all files and registry entries associated with it.
Once you remove Speccy from your PC, download the latest version and install it and the problem should be completely resolved.
6. Install the latest updates
If you keep having problems with Speccy, perhaps the best way to fix the problem is to install the latest updates. Sometimes issues with Windows 10 and other applications can appear if your system is out of date, and to fix that problem you need to update Windows to the latest version.
Windows 10 installs the latest updates automatically for the most part, but sometimes you might miss an update or two due to certain glitches. However, you can check for updates manually by doing the following:
Open the Settings app navigate to the Update & Security section.
In the right pane, click the Check for updates button.
Windows will now check for available updates and download any available updates automatically in the background. Once the updates are downloaded, just restart your PC to install them. After updating your system to the latest version, check if the problem is still there.
7. Try using a different application
Speccy is a simple-to-use application that allows you to easily monitor your hardware. However, this isn’t the only application that offers these features. If Speccy is crashing on your PC and the previous solutions didn’t fix the problem, perhaps this is a good time to consider using a different application.
AIDA64 Extreme offers the same features as Speccy, but it also will show you some advanced information that Speccy might not offer. If you didn’t manage to fix the problem with Speccy, or if you want a more advanced tool, consider trying out AIDA64 Extreme.
Speccy can be a quite useful application if you want to monitor your PC or find out your computer specifications. You can learn how to use Speccy on Windows 11 for accurate hardware monitoring and system information once it’s running smoothly again.
Filing tax returns is something that most people dread doing simply because of how inconvenient and annoying it can get really fast. The newer generations have a great advantage on their side in the form of the internet and specifically the Windows Store. Microsoft’s app purchasing platform, Windows Store, now hosts a new app which deals with filing taxes.
The application is called TurboTax and it focuses on facilitating the process of filing tax returns. One of the best characteristics of this app is that it is free and allows users to simply install it and give it a try rather than have to test their luck and potentially buy an app they won’t be using.
There are many benefits to using this app
Those that are interested about getting TurboTax can get it right now off of the Windows Store where it is available. It will provide an array of features and functionalities revolving around taxes, and it will also open the way to a very competent and helpful customer support service.
Filling out entry forms can be a real pain, but this app is also helpful by removing the necessity of filling them out manually. Through the app, W-2 forms as well as 90’s forms can be filled out automatically and thus users save a lot of time and effort each time they do their tax return.
The level of intricacy possessed by the app is determined by the version of the app that is used. There is a free version which works just fine for things like state or federal returns. However, those that want to get deeper into things like rentals, stock bonds or investments will have to get the Deluxe version of the app.
Tax return support and representation
There is also a solution for those that don’t necessarily know or aren’t completely sure how to do their tax returns. For them, there is the Expert Review service which has an expert look over the manually done tax return. All changes that need to be made will be highlighted and users will get the chance to modify them before actually submitting them for good. The expert reviewing the tax return can also help and represent users in the eventuality in which they are contacted by the IRS.

Back in the beginning of November 2013, we shared with you the news according to which Acronis True Image has received full Windows 8.1 support and now, quite a while after that, sister-software Acronis Disk Director gets the same treatment.
Acronis International has released Acronis Disk Director 12 software, a tool which is most known as an all-in-one partition and drive management product. The present release doesn’t come with big new features in terms of usability, but it finally brings full Windows 8, compatibility and also support for Windows 8.1. Also, improved WinPE 4.0 and 5.0 support suggests that the latest version of Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit when creating bootable rescue media will be possible, as well.
Acronis Disk Director will now work flawlessly on Windows 8.1
Also, both WinPE and Linux-based boot discs are now fully compatible with UEFI-based systems, which is another feature that has been requested for far too long by its users. Just as before, you can use Acronis Disk Director to create and work with basic, dynamic, spanned, striped and mirrored volumes; it’s possible o resize, move, copy, split or merge volumes without losing any data. Besides this, you can use tools to clone drives, recover lost and damaged partitions, view and edit volumes at the sector level and many, many other features.
Acronis Global Consumer Business Senior Vice President and General Manager Nat Maple said the following:

You can get Acronis Disk Director 12 for $49.99 ($29.99 is for the upgrade) for a single PC and $79.99 ($47.99 for the upgrade) for three PCs.
If you experienced MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error from MSI.netdevicemanager40 when installing HP printer software, read on. We’ve got you covered. Here’s what a Windows user reported to us:
Hello Windows Report, I recently bought a new HP Officejet 6000, I wanted to install the printer software from the CD, but instead I got this error message: Fatal error MSI.netdevicemanager40. Any help pls.
This fatal error revolves around the system and the installation package. The Windows PC might have issues with corrupted system drivers and/or the Windows registry, and the installation software might be faulty.
However, we have responded to the MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error problem by enlisting germane solutions for this problem.
How can I fix MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error?
1. Run an SFC scan
Go to Start > type cmd > right-click Command Prompt > select Run as Administrator.
Now, type the sfc /scannow command.
Wait for the scanning process to complete and then restart your computer.
All corrupted files will be replaced on reboot.
Corrupt or missing system files can prevent the printer’s installation from being successful, thereby resulting in MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error.
Therefore, you can fix this error by using the Windows built-in system file checker tool. This tool checks for file integrity violations and fixes corrupt system files.
Nevertheless, if you cannot install the printer installation package afterward, you may proceed to the next method.
2. Uninstall any/all HP printer drivers/software
Software conflicts might occur while attempting to install a new HP printer in the presence of already installed HP printers. In simpler terms, HP applications share similar components. Therefore, when attempting to install a new HP printer, application components of preinstalled HP printers prevent the ‘override’ of those components. This results in MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error.
So, you may have to uninstall all existing HP printer software from your Windows PC.
However, before you do this, we recommend removing preinstalled HP printers from available printers on your device list. Here’s how to do this:
Go to Start > Type ‘View Devices and Printers’ without quotes, and hit ‘Enter’
In the Printers and Faxes section, right-click on the preinstalled HP printer
Select the ‘remove printer’ option, and follow the prompts.
Afterward, you may proceed to remove the existing HP printers’ software from ‘Programs and features and then install the new one.
Here’s how to do this:
Click the Start button, and then click Control Panel.
Click Programs and Feature, or Uninstall a Program under the Programs category.
In the list of installed programs, search HP printer.
Click the Uninstall button, which appears at the top of the program list, and follow the instructions to uninstall the HP printer software.
Restart your PC afterward.
Now, take out the new printer’s installation CD, and insert it into your system
Follow the prompts to complete the new install process.
In addition, you may consider downloading Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package ; this installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications such as HP printer.
Right-click the Windows 10 taskbar and select Task Manager.
Select the Task Manager’s Start-up tab shown in the shot below.
Now select your anti-virus utility and press the Disable button.
The anti-virus software will no longer start when you reboot Windows.
Some Antivirus programs have ‘false positive’ issues; this implies that they perceive harmless codes as virus, and then blocks them from running. This may be the reason for MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error on your Windows PC.
Therefore, you need to disable your antivirus program, install the HP printer’s software, and then enable the antivirus program afterward.
4. Run Windows Update
Go to Start
In the search field, type Windows Updates
Click on Windows Updates Settings from the search results
Click Check for updates
Install the latest Windows Updates
As we have said earlier, Microsoft Windows responds to issues like MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error by releasing patches to fix issues. In addition, constantly updating your Windows OS keeps your PC fresh and up-to-date. This also helps resolve any other issues or difficulties you may be experiencing.
After successfully updating your Windows PC, you may install the printer installation package. But, if you still experience MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error, you may proceed to the next method.
5. Clear spooler files and restart the spooler service
Click Start
Go to the search field box and type Services
Click Services from the search results
Under Services, double click Print Spooler
Select Stop then Ok
Go to the search box again and type %WINDIR%system32spoolprinters
Select the file folder. You need admin privileges to access it.
Delete all the folders in the folder
Under Services, double-click Print Spooler again
Click Start
Go to the Startup Type list
Select Automatic box
Click Apply, then click Ok
Install the printer software afterward.
Some Windows users bypass MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error issue by clearing spooler files, and then restarting the spooler service.
In conclusion, if the solutions did not fix MSI.netdevicemanager40 fatal error problem, contact your printer’s manufacturer (HP) for more troubleshooting and support based on this error problem.
