As some others have said, the problem is probably that windows still has the drive locked. When windows “shuts down”, it actually is only closing your programs and going into hibernation. This leaves the drive in a read only state, which will prevent you from being able to resize the partition.
To do a full shutdown, you can hold shift while pressing the shutdown button on the start menu. Alternatively run shutdown /s /f /t 0 in a administrative command prompt.
Or new incognito window.
It still might be worth trying another DE/WM for a bit to see if the issue is KDE exclusive. It might help you narrow down the cause.
Probably not it, but what DE/WM are you using? I had a very similar issue on KDE, but it would go away if I switched DEs.
I’m actually for paper voting. The largest producer of voting machines in the US (ES&S) got in trouble in 2019 for having their voting machines connected to the internet with remote access software installed, denied it, and then later admitted that it was true for at least some of their machines.
Also their CEO insists that even when using voting machines, that there needs to be a paper record of every vote cast for it to be trustworthy and verifiable.
From what I’ve read, Microsoft just decided to drop support for the PL-2303HXA/ TA/TB/HXD/RA/SA/EA. Some people report that RA chipsets still work some of the time, but inconsistently.
You can also sometimes forcibly install old drivers, that will continue to work.
Yeah, windows 10/11 has broken a ton of stuff. I have to use RS232 plugs for programming controllers at work, and I had to buy new usb-RS232 cables for all our computers because windows 11 broke support for all the older cables. I’ve also had a lot of programs break.
It’s really frustrating to be trying to troubleshoot if an old controller is working or not, and not know if you can’t connect to it because it’s fried or if some new windows update is preventing the connection/software from working.
Wait this is in the US? How, this is even more expensive than Hawaii, and they have obvious reasons for power to be more expensive there
That seems really high, I think power where I live is about 12-14 cents per kilowatt hour. What makes it so expenses where you live?
One of my biggest pet peeves with corporate websites. It’s like they’re afraid that clearly stating what they do will prevent them from growing and doing other things as well. So instead they refuse to say anything coherent.
I’ve long heard that his identity is an open secret and a lot of people know his actual identity. Solid chance the UK government already knows who he is.
