I looked up your battery and it has a 2600mAh battery. My Hp only has a 2200mAh battery and I let it sleep sometimes well over 12 hrs. I think you would be good letting it sleep. I do use it plugged in so whenever I put it to sleep and unplug it, it is 100% charged.

I would let it sleep and see how long the battery lasts. If hibernation is enabled, it will still go into hibernation when the battery gets too low to keep powering the comp.

It also has the advantage of deleting the large file "hiberfil.sys" giving you more disk space.

I have always had problems starting up my systems from Hibernate. I have always disabled Hibernate even on new systems. Sleep works just as well and starts up faster. If you want to disable Hibernate open a CMD window as Administrator and run the command: powercfg -hibernate off

First go here and download SFCFix and run it. Save it to your desktop because it may create a file where it is run from. https://www.sysnative.com/forums/downloads/sfcfix/ It may automatically fix some or all SFC errors. If that doesn't help then go here, and go to step 2...

You can try this: https://winupdatefixer.com/#download I have used it several times and it worked on several different OS's. EDIT: Or look here: https://www.sysnative.com/forums/threads/system-update-readiness-tool-surt.11094/

Nothing to worry about, unless you need to take with you, at which point 75% battery wont last very long. Why not just get a new battery.

Didn't know ChrEdge was also dropping support. Makes no difference since there are many other options out there. I'll just stick with my Pale Moon and use Waterfox classic for the few sites Pale Moon wont open.

They are also dropping Win 7. Which will probably make Edge the number 1 browser.

Yeah, they're gonna lose a lot of users. I personally don't use that useless browser.

Avast browser also does that. A few months back, I failed to uncheck the box to install the browser when updating. It didn't even put an icon on the desktop. I found it when looking in task manager to close a frozen app, and it had ten processes running while it wasn't even open.

Dude, UR off the wall cool. However. I know U luv Win 8, but sorry I Luv Win 7 even more. And since M$ forgot how to build an operating system, and the fact that I'm 81yo and pushing 82 real soon, GUESS I may get to die before I ever have to use Win 10/11. Geeze, all they do is break rubbish every...

It probably came formatted exFAT. All I have ever had 128GB and over did. Granted I too formatted the 512GB and 1TB drives to NTFS.

Click on any Avatar and select "Start conversation". Actually you can just hover over it.

I have a real problem with using the "Safely remove hardware" icon. It never works. I think because my antivirus is scanning the drives. Since Windows Doesn't use delayed write on removable drives by default unless you intentionally set the system to do so, you wont lose data by waiting a minute...

Yeah I would also like to know where.

UR most welcome. I spent two months trying to figure out the USB aggravation to no avail, hence always pressing "NO".

The file with your website history and Bookmarks is called "places.sqlite". Copy that file to the new PC. To transfer your Passwords copy these two files, the "key4.db and logins.json". Personally I would just Copy the entire Profile to the new computer, then both computers will be identical...

Windows 8.1 should have the Driver. Just update the driver in "Device manager".

Well, not all externals flash to show data transfer. I have 4 WD 4TB drives and two very old Seagate 1 TB drives that flash when reading or writing to them. I also have two newer Seagate 4TB "Backup Plus" drives and one of them the light doesn't work at all. The other Does Not flash ever...
