Love to play with Windows 11 and 10. Suggestion - Going for Registry change or system files edit then remember to take a backup or create a restore point before Starting.

  1. Thank you so much. I’ve been having this problem too since the 1809 update. One should be able to expect Microsoft to have fixed this by now with an intermediate update… Thanks to this article it finally works again as expected.
