This has been an annoyance for a while now and wondered if anyone knew if there's a way to change it. Every time I want to open a file or save or something, the dialog box is always scrolled to the bottom. Why is that? See pic. Is there a way to always make those dialogs always at the top or even a default folder? I have a lot of network drives and shared folders and it's a big pain having to scroll up to the top every time. 90% of the time I'm opening or saving files that are on Deskop.

The sidebar in Windows 11 can be pretty frustrating to use if the "Show all folders" option is turned on. If it's turned on, try turning it off and see if it helps.

I actually don't have any of those options under navigation pane turned on

      I don't get why you care how thin your phone is. Most people slap a giant case on it anyway, so it doesn't mean much in the long run.

      Yay it finally made it to openSUSE Tumbleweed. Installed on the rest of my PCs/laptops and also working just fine. Was also available before for KDE Neon and Fedora. And I hear Arch also already has it.
    • Windows 11 blocks Google Chrome due to a Microsoft safety feature, fix out

      Yeah basically family safety is tied to your sons acc and your be the manager of it right and can see what they view and can control it. However open edge and you can actually signin to another account while on the windows account you are monitoring and bypass the restrictions. It was different to this on Windows 7 all the stuff was local not in cloud, so didn't matter if you signed out the browser. Chrome can usually still be installed even when blocked, my son used to use other acc in browser and download chrome and then use that freely and install apps and stuff as webapps. None of the tracking stuff would work. I originally ended up blocking downloads via group policy, microsoft store, winget, and loads of other stuff via group policy. But yeah as i said he just got to the point he reset the pc. I stopped that with bios password but he yanked the cmos battery (restores bios and removes password) and reinstalled windows. Other than physically locking the case away and watching him like a hawk its gameover now. It was kinda self inflicted, i did teach my son some cybersecurity stuff and i used to encourage him to try get past my blocking (so he learnt some skills for the future), he can actually lockpick interesting how you bring that up lol (another thing i got him into) I agree with the parenting thing locking stuff down is not the only solution.
