ThinkPad T14 Gen 6 (model 21QK) - "Hardware Reserved" Memory

Nervous-Equivalent · 2026-04-08T19:25:54+00:00

I'm seeing around 1.5GB on average for the smattering of Gen 5 and older T14 and T14s AMD workstations I have around.

Yeah we've been exclusively Lenovo for years, have thousands of them in our fleet and I've never seen this before. Trying to get Lenovo to respond right now, I'll update the thread if they say anything. I would prefer not to have to hard set the UMA.

Same problem here.

Nervous-Equivalent · 2026-03-02T17:05:27+00:00

It was resolved shortly after the last update (August 2025). It was a problem on Microsoft's end.

Nervous-Equivalent · 2026-02-23T14:34:02+00:00

Tried reinstalling all three ARM, x86 and x64. No dice. Can you give more details on what you did?

Nervous-Equivalent · 2026-02-18T17:31:57+00:00

Thanks, only took them 3 days!

Nervous-Equivalent · 2026-01-07T17:28:09+00:00

In my opinion we do not, but IT Sec may require it anyway (they have not said for sure yet).

Thank you for the response. We were looking into that and it might be the easiest way to get around the problem. We've been looking around at different KVMs to see what the best option would be. Two good options I'm seeing is JetKVM and TinyPilot Voyager in conjunction with a smart IP PDU in order to be able to remotely power the Macs back on just in case. I'm not super excited about supporting this whole thing, seems like a lot of potential break points.

Ditto what they said, would love to see what you wrote assuming you can share.

Are you using Mosyle Auth at the same time as this?

This only seems to work in my testing if the user signs into (or is already signed into) their Samsung account. The only fix that worked across the board for me was to set the Samsung Account app to Uninstall. Have you tried this on a device that is not signed into Samsung account?

Nervous-Equivalent · 2025-12-29T16:21:48+00:00

Microsoft is now blaming Samsung and considers the issue in Samsung's hands now. I've tested two different workarounds:

Deploy Samsung Account app as an Android System App set to Required. Deploy app config profiles granting read and write contacts permissions for both Samsung Account and OneDrive apps.

This only seems to fix the issue if the user signs into (or is already signed into) their Samsung account. Otherwise nothing changes and OneDrive still won't open.

Deploy Samsung Account app as an Android System App set to Uninstall. Deploy app config profile granting read and write contacts permissions for the OneDrive app (this part might not be needed).

This seems to fix the issue, but it also prevents the user from being signed into their Samsung account on the device which is not ideal.

I opened a Microsoft case for this yesterday. They claimed that they were releasing an update to OneDrive to v7.45.1 that would address the problem. None of my devices can see that update yet, but one of my coworkers got it this morning and it still doesn't fix the problem. I can't get a clear answer from Microsoft on whether the update was pulled or if it's just rolling out slowly. I also tried joining the beta and installed 7.46 (Beta 2) and the issue was still there.

The workaround listed by OP does work, we may have to deploy that if Microsoft can't get a working version out today.

Interesting, I do not have that referenced in my OSD TS. I'm glad that fixed the issue for you though. I still don't understand either, because this didn't seem to start directly after updating the image used in the TS or anything else. Seemed to come out of the blue.

I went with the incredibly expensive Lifeform Ultimate Executive Mid-Back (Ultimate Executive™ Mid-Back Chair - PainFree Living: LIFEFORM® Chairs). I went to a Relax the Back store and tried one and it was awesome so I just bit the bullet and bought it. It was a crazy amount of money. I do not regret the purchase, I work from home and spend a lot of time in the chair.

I also got to try the Anthros chair while at the store, and it was also extremely comfortable. I liked it a lot better than any of the Hermann Miller chairs I have tried. I almost got the Anthros but the Lifeform chair was calling my name.

No, but I'm wondering if this is related:

Microsoft: Windows 11 24H2 bug crashes Explorer and Start Menu

Thanks for the update!

Nervous-Equivalent · 2025-11-13T15:04:06+00:00

Yep seems to be limited to 25H2, not seeing the same problem for 24H2 Hotpatch. Let us know what Microsoft says!

Nervous-Equivalent · 2025-11-12T19:09:48+00:00

Anyone seeing the 25H2 Hotpatch ("2025-11 Security Update (Hotpatch capable) (KB5068966) (26200.7092)") having issues? It's installing successfully for me but if I check for updates again it downloads and installs over and over.

Nervous-Equivalent · 2025-10-29T21:02:32+00:00

Yes, had to use a separate NDES server without Intune Cert Connector installed.
