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.

Question
Kibler
I saw the link to download SongSpy and I downloaded it to give it a try. I still havent found anything that can compete with Napster when it was in its prime....
Anyway the next day I noticed msbb.exe in my taskmanager and I knew it was something fishy. Sure enough Ad-aware said it was bad :mad:!
Warning! EZULA module loaded: msbb.exe (C:WINDOWSmsbb.exe)
I am not 100% sure that SongSpy is at fault here but it seems likely because its the only thing I have installed recently. If there is one thing that drives me bonkers its spyware!!! At least things like BearShare give you some sort of warning and a chance to optout. Couldnt find a thing about this on songspy's site at all.
Just a little warning for the rest of you if you tried Songspy. It actually worked quite well for me but it still doesnt have the masses of users or servers to handle them like Napster did....oh well.
Kibler
ps. if anyone finds that songspy doesnt include this spyware please let me know so I can try to hunt down the ****** app that installed this, dont want to be spreading false acusations.
