So I clicked on the news icon. lower lefthand corner on the Windows 11 Taskbar. I clicked on a news link and the browser freezes up with this message. On my phone I Googles the phone number 888-262-7152 and came up with nothing, so I figured it must not be Microsoft Support. It took me a while get the browser to close. Rebooted and ran a McAfee scan and came up with nothing. Any suggestions?

Isn't Samsung's Knox the one that's supposed to mess with people's ability to root? I think it voids the warranty if they do.

You can root a phone with Knox (US Samsungs with their encrypted bootloaders and no unlock option are harder, but that's not Knox). And yes, it will leave a permanent indication that the phone software has been fiddled with, which the carrier or manufacturer may use to withhold warranty support. But to be fair it's not the only way that they can tell, just that it's impossible to reset while other tells can be with more or less effort (though whether you are able to undo any indicator that you've modified the phone will depend on why you need to use the warranty...).

Like @ocnbrze I am generally opposed to cleaner apps: they're usually more malware than anything useful, and there's very little for them to actually do.

Besides the risk of the app collecting your data and sending it home to someone, having additional storage available isn't making your phone run any better or faster. Imagine having a huge walk-in closet but you only need one small section for your entire wardrobe. What good would it do for you to install shelves to hold even more... or even knock out a wall to make it bigger? It's unused capacity - the key word being "unused".

The system cache is actually making your phone work better and faster by storing much of your phone's most commonly-used data for quick access. Generally, the only time I would recommend someone go into Android Recovery to wipe cache is after a major OS upgrade (from Android 12 to 13, for example) or if the phone is behaving erratically. Otherwise, an occasional restart of the phone is enough to get it working well again.

Wow Chief, that's a nice lookin' catch, & the fish ain't bad either

The fish was catch and release... the Darling Bride? Nope, she's a keeper. After 33 years I still wake up every day, convinced that I won the lottery of women.

Hello I have the exact same problem if ever o fid a solution to delete this archive folder that I only have for my account gmaon on Android Outlook.

But I can select all emails on the folder to delete them at once.

Click to expand...

How did you select all emails in the folder? It's easy on a computer but I have not found any way to do so on a phone.

Oh, I forgot to tell: the blue spinning circle thing, like the below and ending up on the screenshot, that is fixed recently.
It shows up for a second, disappears and the screenshot is then taken, everything okay.

How about A nice layout to find our media through different photographs, and maybe.. Well.. whatever Rob has in mind.

Has anyone tried Starfield for Xbox X/S series, my buddy is playing it and says it's a nice game...... I can't play it because they did not make it for the Xbox One series ?

no do not delete it. it looks like it is for data that is directly tied to your system os. it has nothing to do with 3rd party apps.

Thank you Kansas City Chiefs. It's nice to have the extra money come it 👍

Is there a way to hide Secure Folder?
Is there an alternative way to hide apps, preferably also hiding them from the swipe up/down apps list. Yeah, I'm paranoid

If you use Nova launcher you can rename the app and change the icon. Then if someone looks at your apps they can't find it unless they know what you changed it to.

Welcome back. Yep, I think the correct term by today's standards is we've "transitioned" We look different, but still have our original package...I mean uhhhhh...threads to answer all your questions. Enjoy the site !!

On my smart phone, there is an option in Settings to block opening other apps.



Settings - Apps - Firefox - App management, Android 14.

I'm not sure if you have a similar option on your Samsung Galaxy 9+. Just for your reference.

are you interested in one?

I had an early Zenfone 2. That was back when it was hard to get an unlocked phone in the states, and it was a real decent phone. I'm pretty attached to Pixel phones. if Google does something real stupid with Pixel I would try a new Asus phone. Asus puts the same amount of care into their phones as they do their motherboards.

Anecdotes. Micro USB always worked for me. Why can't we have choices anymore instead of the 'illusion of choice'? Somehow USB-C didn't just become a way, it became the only way, no thanks to the E.U. who shouldn't even have any jurisdiction in the U.S.

Artificial scarcity sucks. We should also have WebOS and other OSs too. There is plenty of room for options, choices and competition, just as there was plenty of room for 2G, 3G, 4G/LTE as well as 5G and VoLTE. Let people have variety again!

I want the newest Guilty Gear games for my tablet...

All the Beanie Babies I see anymore are someone's old collection attempting to be sold en masse at a vendor mall booth. I only imagine that the original owner ultimately left this world and it's some estate sale stuff.

I didn't need any emergency heat today but my power was off for a few hours. We were warned in advance for the planned outage. It seems when my neighbor's tree wiped out our power in early January, it also damaged the power pole it was mounted to. The crew replacing the pole said the pole was installed in 1948.
