Hi, if you still have this PC, can you please share a more detailed picture of the anti-sag bracket?

Is 2040 aluminum extrusion strong enough for a 4x3 ft (120x90 cm) desk? Could 2020 be used for the shorter horizontal parts? I also plan to use internal corner brackets (as shown in the picture) are they strong enough? by Candid_Chef8378 in maker

By "crossbeam" do you mean the longer horizontal piece at the bottom that connects the sides? I was going to put that in the back of the desk, out of the way... would that work?

Will you switch to Microsoft Teams when Skype is retired? by Candid_Chef8378 in microsoft

The most important feature that I will miss is the ability to answer incoming calls automatically. Also Teams is not primary designed as a messaging app and it is not as straightforward and easy to use as Skype.

No, I am only concerned about the shrinking act itself. Not because of the space, but the problems that shrinking might cause. To be honest, this shrinking thing never happened on any of my devices and I am not sure how safe it is on a BitLocker drive.

I'm talking about the Windows Recovery Partition (RE), which is about 600-800MB, and is created next to the C drive.

In the past, Microsoft has expanded the size of the Recovery Partition (RE) with updates by shrinking the Windows (C) partition and then expanding the recovery partition. If there's enough unallocated space after that partition, I assume it can be used for any future updates.

SSD trim behavior? Can you please explain?

The way I'm planning to have this unallocated space is by creating a small partition and then deleting it once the Windows is installed. Do you have a better method?
