Well, the whatever that is from my last post would appear to be Microsoft’s answer to Google’s Doodle, except if it were second-to-market, minimalistic, and intrusive on the desktop. I still haven’t found Microsoft’s announcement of this feature, whatsit, or whatever. But “Search Highlights” does sometimes pop up search results on mouseover, just not immediately. Triggering the search related to the search image is done by mousing over the image and pausing for at least one second. Apparently, it changes daily.

Here’s the turtle version, for May 23rd, World Turtle Day.

And today, May 24th, is apparently for the European Day of Parks.

Again, it can be turned off by right-clicking the start bar, and next to Search, unchecking ‘Show search highlights.’

The February PC Updater News is out. This month, I cover the top Windows problems that don’t need a tech for fixes, usually. Try these quick fixes before ripping everything apart:

• Lost Windows password
• Missing Desktop icons
• Lost an online password
• Why can’t I login?
• Can’t print.
• How do Windows 11 and 10 reboot? Really?
• My speakers are broken.
• My mail is broken
• Computer won’t start, just have a black screen.

The February issue and all the back issues are online, free, here:

Windows 11 became available on October 5th, 2021. This will be a free upgrade for computers made since approximately 2018; there’s a list at Microsoft on what the hardware requirements are, or call me for a free compatibility check.

I’ve created the new Windows 11 Keyboard shortcuts chart. It’s the shortcuts you need to learn most. It’s over at PC410.com, here:
