      But where is “there”?

      The last moderator email chastising me for a post that was removed.

      Try disabling all startup programs and non-MS services (msconfig) Then if you are able to boot normally, start re-enabling in groups to narrow down the possible offending program.

      Sorry, CADesertRat, Didn’t mean to hijack your thread. Just hadn’t seen discus discussed here before and it grabbed my attention

      Serious question. Why do people supposedly like Disqus? One of my server providers moved to it years ago and basically dropped their forum. To me, it was somewhat confusing and stunk. Haven’t been there in years and have no plans to go back.

      But it falls upon us to inform (warn) the less savvy.

      This seems absurd, and even somewhat funny, until you realize how many impressionable and foolish people will use this technology and what may (will) happen!

      Could it be related to this MS outage?

      April 11, 2024 at 9:50 am in reply to: T-Mobile Privacy Alert – April 9, 2024 #2658829

      We had T-Mobile. If I sent a link in a text to some “conservative” websites it never arrived to the recipients whether they were on T-Mobile or other services. No failure notice or anything on my end. I tested numerous times over about a month. Strange, eh???

      I’ve uninstalled copilot on 3 windows 11 23H2 systems without any issues. Uninstall shows up as an option in the apps section.
