As a longtime Android privacy nerd, here are 6 privacy apps I actually regret installing

The author shares experiences with six privacy applications that did not meet expectations. 1. Private Internet Access (PIA): A robust VPN service with a cluttered interface and concerns about its U.S. base; transitioned to NordVPN for a better user experience. 2. Brave Browser: Known for ad and tracker blocking, but had issues with Brave Search reliability, syncing, and battery drain; switched to Firefox with uBlock Origin. 3. LastPass: A former leading password manager that lost trust due to security breaches; moved to Bitwarden for its solid and secure platform. 4. KeePassDX: Impressive for local storage and clean UI, but lacked cloud syncing and required manual password management; eventually chose Bitwarden for convenience. 5. OpenBoard: A privacy-focused keyboard app that is no longer available on Google Play; basic features and installation hassles led to regret over its use; better alternatives exist. 6. OsmAnd: An open-source offline navigation app with extensive customization but a steep learning curve and rigid address searches; now prefers Organic Maps for ease of use.

June’s Windows 10 patch has a BitLocker user lockout problem… again

Microsoft released a cumulative update for Windows 10, designated as KB5094127, during the latest Patch Tuesday. Some users are experiencing issues where they are prompted to enter their BitLocker recovery key after installing the update. This problem is linked to systems with an "unrecommended" BitLocker Group Policy configuration and has occurred in previous updates. Specific conditions that can lead to this issue include having BitLocker enabled on the operating system drive, a certain Group Policy setting configured, the System Information tool reporting a specific Secure Boot State, the presence of a particular certificate in the Secure Boot Signature Database, and not using the 2023-signed Windows Boot Manager. Affected users may face difficulties accessing their BitLocker recovery key, potentially leading to lockouts. Microsoft suggests that personal devices are less likely to be affected, with the issue primarily impacting enterprise setups. The company is working on a resolution and advises IT administrators to consider removing the Group Policy configuration before installing the update. Update KB5094127 is available only to Windows 10 users in the Extended Security Updates program for versions 21H2 and 22H2, addressing various bugs and security vulnerabilities.

Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon

Files, a third-party file manager for Windows 11, has been updated to version 4.1.3, introducing several enhancements: - A "View size" button for each folder allows users to calculate folder sizes easily without changing settings. - File selection is retained when switching between different layouts. - Tag management has been streamlined, allowing users to remove tags via the context menu, toolbar, or Command Palette. - The OneDrive icon has been updated to reflect the current version from the OneDrive executable. - Bug fixes include resolving issues with tar archive extraction, crashes on the Signatures page, ensuring the Play action for single media files, correcting Smart Extract functions, addressing tag search issues, refreshing thumbnails, and displaying previously hidden BitLocker-locked drives. - A new Tree View sidebar feature is planned for future updates, enabling navigation of folders in an expandable hierarchy. Files can be downloaded from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or accessed through its official website (free version).
