Avowed might be good, but I don’t want Windows 10 shoving adverts in my face urging me to buy the game, thanks Microsoft.

Scratching your head about a mysterious folder that’s appeared on your drive after installing the latest Windows 11 update? Here’s what’s happened.

Asus has a winner with its new Power Detector+ warning, though it only works for some of the company’s GPUs right now.

Nvidia could price the RTX 5060 Ti graphics cards surprisingly affordably – might this be a move to try and win back favor with disgruntled gamers?

Can an AMD RX 9070 GPU equal an RX 9070 XT? Yes, it sounds preposterous, but it’s (kind of) true – if these modders are to be believed.

Microsoft is finally resolving some persistent bugs in Windows 11 24H2 with its April update which should be imminent now.

Mobile GPUs are leaked by several notebook makers, giving fresh hope for affordable but nippy gaming laptops.

Microsoft seems to be giving Windows 11 users what they want, namely more control over the Start menu.

Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti benchmarks appear, alongside sightings of Asus GPUs, all suggesting the launch rumored for next week is going ahead.

Hoping Nvidia might drop RTX 5060 Ti pricing compared to RTX 4060 Ti GPUs? You can forget that, but the good news is that a price hike isn’t rumored, either.

Microsoft could be gunning for big changes to the Windows 11 desktop, as a nifty taskbar tweak emerges following rumored Start menu revamp.

A redesign for the Windows 11 Start menu has been spotted in testing, and it comes with the change I’ve been desperate to see.

Desperate to buy a reasonably priced Nvidia Blackwell or AMD RDNA 4 GPU? You’ll get better odds if you’re a Prime member.

Intel has canned its app that worked like Windows 11’s Phone Link – and that’s a shame, as some folks (particularly iPhone users) preferred the Unison app.

Lenovo desktop PC has been spotted with RTX 5060 models, suggesting Nvidia might get these GPUs out ahead of AMD’s RX 9060 rivals.

On the hunt for a high-end gaming laptop? Nvidia’s RTX 5080 mobile GPU appears to be surprisingly close to the RTX 5090’s performance.

I’m becoming convinced that Microsoft’s rumored ‘handheld mode’ for Windows 11 is coming to supercharge gaming portables.

This was a baffling mistake in the first place, compounded by the length of time it took Google to resolve the problem.

Recall is still MIA, but those with AMD or Intel CPUs in their Copilot+ PC are finally catching up with the functionality available on Snapdragon machines.

The error screen known as the BSOD is undergoing a radical change, and while it’s a nice idea, I fear it could confuse more people than it helps.

Microsoft just blocked one workaround to install Windows 11 with a local account, and you can bet other fudges will be on the chopping block, too.

Microsoft wants to clarify exactly what’s happening in terms of new features coming to its desktop OS with a new Windows Roadmap portal.

The Asus ROG Astral LC RTX 5090 OC Edition has a ridiculously long name, but it’s not as ridiculous as the price this GPU now commands (or rather, fails to command).

Can’t install a BIOS update for your Lenovo laptop? Blame Microsoft’s latest patch for Windows 11 – but fortunately the fix is simple enough.

Windows 11 glitch that made printers seem like they’re possessed is one of the strangest bugs I’ve even known – but it’s been banished now.
