  I have a skytech gaming prebuilt pc (don't ask why prebuilt, it was out of my control). I find the fans extremely loud and annoying. I'm trying to figure out what each of the pins do so I can connect it to the case fan pins on the motherboard instead of wherever the prebuilt connected it. I tried searching online but I couldn't find anything about what function each pin serves. I also had a multimeter and battery and I figured out that the rightmost pin is positive and the second rightmost pin is ground, but I have no idea what the other 3 pins do. The center pin I measured at 5 volts, but when I connected the fan and measured again, there was no potential difference. Does anyone knows any information about this 5 pin connector or knows where I can find documentation/specification? Also if there are any other ways to make the case fans not run at 100% power all the time, please let me know.
Basically I'll be listening to anything and suddenly the phone/Buds will think I'm in a call (I'm not) and the sound will be worse. It then reverts by itself after 2 minutes. Help

Afterwards trying to turn it on again, the led will bright for 2 seconds until it shuts itself down... I tried removing and putting the battery again to no luck. First I thought it could be the CPU/iGPU, now maybe the battery or motherboard is the issue? I repaired this latop many times, but this is the first time this happens, so I don't know what it can be.. Apart from an old and low-end smartphone I'm using to write this, this is the only computer I own.
I have some bluetooth earbuds, Jabra Elite 3's, that I use with my phone most of the time. I also share them as well so sometimes they're connected to someone else's phone. I also like to connect them to my macbook. The frustrating thing is though, I've succesfully paired them with all of these 3 devices before, but it's really frustrating to connect them to something *other* than the last device they connected to. If they most recently connected to my phone before and I decide to use them with my laptop, I remove them from their case, but they immediately connect to my phone. This is good, because that's usually what I want them to do, but I hoped I could, from my laptop select them from the list of nearby bluetooth devices and click 'connect' and thereby sever that connection between the headphones and my phone, in favour of the new connection between the laptop and the headphones *instead*. This doesn't work, the computer just says connecting for a long time, and then stops saying that (but doesn't say anything about having failed). Ok, I figured, that sort of makes sense, after all you wouldn't want people to be able to just break your connection at will if you're using the headphones (although it would require having previously paired them, but still, devil's advocate I suppose). So I reasoned, you must have to disconnect them from the phone first, on my headphones that's achievable by just pressing the button on each bud once. Doing this disconnects them from the phone, but doesn't them leave them available to other devices for connection, they remain only available to the phone if you press the button again. The only way to finally sever this connection to allow the laptop access is to fully switch off bluetooth on my phone. This pisses me off but it's not a huge big deal, but the trouble here is, that's only if they're connected to *my* phone. The headphones are shared. I would have thought the 'ownership' of the headphones (for lack of a better word) would give precedence to physical access to the headphones. Therefore, if you have the ability to press the disconnect button on the headphones, then you're most likely the person making the conscious decision to replace one connection with another. I can't control someone else's phone, I'm the one with the headphones, but I can't choose what device they connect to. Rant aside, this genuinely is a question because it just seems so illogical for it to work this way that I'm betting on there being something I'm missing that would allow common sense to prevail and let me replace one connection with another.
Start a file explorer from the folder icon on task bar - window comes up, spinny wheel for 2-3 seconds, entire desktop crashes and comes back up. Event viewer cites the application error mentioned in the title. A Dell precision 5520 laptop, good specs, fresh-ish install of 10, rockwell software and other stuff. Had been working normally. User says he installed a prompted Dell update last night, which could be legit. SFC scannow - found and repaired corrupted files. Did not fix the problem. Did the power shell windows image repair-online thing. Did not fix problem Windows defender scan - found nothing Put on a windows update, updates are current, did not fix problem. Uninstalled the latest VCruntime packages, reinstalled, did not fix problem Safe mode - problem does not arise, thought maybe I could REPLACE the ucrtbase.dll, but alas it appears to be quite difficult to do. The DLL is dated 2022 which may or may not mean anything. That may indicate it isn't the real issue. So, HERE is the interesting thing- Right click on desktop, create "New Folder". Open "New Folder" and a file explorer window comes up, and does NOT crash. Works fine. Unpin folder icon from task bar, drag new folder icon to task bar, pin. Launch file explorer window from the task bar, crashes explorer.exe as before. Go back to "new folder" icon on desktop - works fine. Headdesk. Any idea why this would happen? Any way to fix?

Microsoft has a nagware that would keep asking you to upgrade to Windows 10 if you are using Windows 7. If you are using an older PC, I would not suggest doing that. Instead, try this hack to ensure that you do not get any notifications anymore.
