I agree... I think this would be an excellent idea. I dont usually ask homework questions on this forum, but I'm sure if their was a specific forum I would probably ask a question from time to time... Plus, a lot of people are willing to help eachother out and threads asking for homework help go at least a few pages. I think it would be a beautiful addition to the forums, and it could relate pretty well.

No. I think it is a rather poor idea. These kinds of posts can just as easily belong in general. There is no need to categorise everything. Too many forums or sub forums equals clutter. It is not necessary. Ultimately Neowin is a tech site. We are not here to help you with your homework. Just keep this stuff to general. This does not warrant a new forum.

You just don't like moving posts around. :D

I say we definitely vote on it.

Nah, I'm sure there are people here who can help you with all those things - we just don't need a seperate forum for everthing, toiletries, pets... :D

The problem is that in a lot of the existing homework threads I've seen, half the people will say "do it yourself" or "this isn't a homework help forum".

It may also encourage people to just ask for straight answers for entire homesworks (i've seen people do that as well)

This thread is four years old...Way (way [way {way}]) beyond the one month g limit of threads. ;)

    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
    • Hello, The Media Creation Tool is still at v10.0.26100.7019 from October 2025. Just looks like the backend has been updated. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.
    • That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.
