What's a nice to know feature / service in Windows / Microsoft that casuals would appreciate?
Been using Windows all my life and was told by my coworker about win + v to check my past clipboard copies. I was kinda mind blown by it and realized how that could have been useful in my past use cases lol
As a casul user, what else am I missing?

How to Make "Dark Mode" Darker
Just upgraded to Windows 11 Pro and noticed that the default dark mode is really just a gray instead of a black or darker gray that I am used to from Windows 10, is there any way to make it darker? The contrast theme settings are too jarring with the pitch-black and yellow outlines and changing the accent colors isn't enough for me. The images compare what my system looks like vs the old Windows 10 look I want.

Is Windows 11 sluggish compared to Windows 7?
Recently I got an old PC to help with selling it I decided to install Windows 11 hoping it would feel snappy even tho the PC is 10 years old running on an HDD, and it kinda is once it is done starting up, which takes a while and also shutting down takes its time, but the first time I open Explorer, or any other program it feels like it takes an eternity to open, subsequent load ups do feel snappy, the thing is I had to format and install Windows 7 to be able to perform a bios update, and I thought if W11 was feeling bad W7 was going to be worse, but to my surprise W7 felt very snappy, starts up and shuts down fast, every first program load was almost instant, so I was wondering if there is something I can do to make W11 to feel as snappy as W7, something to tweak, enable or disable? I should mention I sued Chris Titus's WinUtil to set services to manual, so W11 shouldn't feel bloated, but it didn't help much.

A recent blog post from Microsoft gave us an up-to-date statistic on the number of Windows devices there are the world today, and that number is down by up to 400 million over the last number it gave.

I managed to install 16-bit MS Office 4.3 (with otvdm) on latest Win11 Canary build without connecting to Internet once (with localonly). This is what made Windows, Windows.

Dont disable TextInput services from Windows, and the solution if you have done!
Despite consuming RAM, it is an IMPORTANT service!
As is obvious from the name, it is the service that "recognizes" your keyboard, so when you disable and restart your device you will not even be able to leave the lock screen!
One of the ways to disable it is by Regedit, ~~that's what I did~~. And I returned to normal by restoring a system save.
To solve this you will have to access the Troubleshooting screen (look for which key you need to use on your device). For my notebook i just turn on and off 3 times in a row (by the Power button).
Troubleshoot -> Advanced Options -> System Restore
Choose the latest version that is possible but was before you turned off the services.
Wait for the restoration, and you can use your device!

Well that's it, Intel Unison has been shut down as of today. What apps are you using to transfer huge videos/files back & forth between iPhone and Windows?

Best document search software that searches within files?
Our law firm is looking for software to run on Windows that can search our company drive better than the built-in File Explorer. We’re specifically looking for something that can search inside files—like if we wrote a memo on a certain topic, we want to be able to find that memo even if we don’t remember what we named it.
Ideally not super expensive. Also, since we’re dealing with confidential case files, we need to be careful about anything that sends data outside our system—so any privacy or security concerns would definitely matter.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
