I keep getting random chat requests.

As the title says, I keep getting random chat requests in MS Teams. The chat requests never have any message attached

Is there any way to set an auto responder or custom status that I don't use Teams for socializing, or at least that all chat requests must have a message?

No external audio

No external audio output

I have a 75" Crystal UHD TV (Model UN75DU6950FXZA) plugged into my home stero so I can have surround sound.

I haven't tried to watch much other than YouTube on it, but today I tried to watch Amazon Prime and could only get TV speaker out. I've tried other apps, including Samsung TV Plus and Tubi as well as CNN through the built-in browser. Nothing will output via HDMI out except YouTube.

I did get a notification this morning that the firmware had been updated. Could this be part or all of the problem?

Unfortunately my warranty has expired, and trying to submit a ticket to Samsung doesn't seem to be working well.

I've already performed a factory reset, and the problem persists.

I believe it USED to work, at least for the browser as I've watched videos on the browser before. And I'm pretty sure TV Plus used to work as well, because I've inadvertently gotten some streams there in the past.

Amy suggestions?

Migrating between SSDs

So my Dell PC was running low on drive space. It came with a 256Gb NVME ssd.

I ordered another SSD (Crucial) from Amazon and a USB NVME reader. I tried using GPARTED to image from disk to disk, but it apparently can't do that. I downloaded another free app, DiskGenius, but didn't end up using it. I ended up using Clonezilla. I had a heck of a time finding the ISO for it, but eventually found it, installed it onto a thumb drive and used that to image the new SSD off the old one.

Now, I specified that I wanted to grow the partitions to fill the new drive, but for some reason, Clonezilla failed to do that.

To grow the Windows 11 partition, I deleted the restore points and then booted into GPARTED in the thumb drive and used it to delete the system restore partitions and expanded the main Windows partition.

It took all evening, but I finally have my 1Tb SSD as the boot device in my tower.

I was going to add a 4Tb spinning disk, but when I looked inside, there's no place for a spinning disk, nor is there any way to power it, so I'm out of luck there.
