I was leaning toward NTFS. I asked Chat-GPT too. Here is what it said: For compatibility between Mac and Windows systems, both exFAT and NTFS are viable options, but each has its own advantages and disadvantages: exFAT (Extended File Allocation Table): Advantages...

I have a brand new 4GB SSD external drive. My M1 Macbook Pro has Paragon NTFS installed on it. I need to be able to use the drive on PC's and my Macbook. Paragon NTFS seems to work fine with the older NTFS drive that I have. Are there any advantages to using exFat over NTFS for formatting this...

The computer won't allow me to copy the DMP file. It says I don't have permission. Even logged in as ADMIN. I had to use WinDbg to get any access to it.

I have a computer that is throwing a BSOD every day at least once or twice. I have to force a reboot and there is a bugcheck. I am not sure how to read the report. Can someone please help me read this report? I have updated WinDbg to the newest version and run Analysis on it and this is what it...

I disagree. I think they are practically useless. Doesn't matter how many I mark and how long it seems to train, I get more and more junk mail every day than the day before.

I find that a very large amount of spam that I get has weird domain extension. Like the following: .lol .click .bond .cfd .rest .digital .fun .page .life .services .site .world etc.... If I just set a filter to block all of these, what are the chances that real legitimate email will also get...

Is there some other setting?

If I go into the Storage Configuration all of the drives are set to AUTO

Bios Version: X570 Taichi Razer Edition P1.30 Microcode Update: A20F10/A201009

I have tried that. It fails with shadow copy error as well.

I tried to image the drive. I used Control Panel/Backup or Restore/Create A System Image. It went for about three hours then errored out. Getting Volsnap errors.

I don't think it has ever worked correctly. I just never noticed it. This is just one of many computers here in our office and something always seems to be broken on one of them. I installed windows on this computer from a Windows DVD, then did all the updates, then used PC Mover to move all...

The problem is not the Restore Point. The problem is Shadow copy and that causes other problems. The Restore Point is the result. I can't make a full backup with Macrim Reflect, it throws the Shadow Copy error every time. I also can't run my regularly scheduled backups with TGRMN ViceVersa Pro...

There was no more information than what I posted from the Event viewer in the original post. The only errors in the Reliability History shows a couple of older programs that crash regularly. No system errors came up in Reliability History.
