1) My windows 10 or now 11 did a windows update last night and somehow it completely lost Realtek audio so I no longer have sound. Tried downloading Realtek but no luck myself or a computer guy. Any suggestions, please.

2) Bought a new windows 11 and can't remember how to do anything. How do I put links to my favorite sites in a bar across the top of the screen so I don't have to search for them every time. There is no bar currently on the new computer.

3) I understand there is a way to get the old computer settings and whatnot transferred over to the new one but I don't think I ever registered it or it had any cloud hooey on it and I don't know a password to it but maybe it is somewhere.

4) Blah, why is my typing on FR is bold and can it be made regular typing? Sigh, I don't like changes except bringing back Trump.
