Cannot reactivate Bluetooth at all, have tried everything I can think of or find

I've got an ASUS Vivobook Pro 16x from I think 2023, running Windows 11 Pro.

Earlier today I went away for a few minutes, and I think it went to sleep, and when I came back the Bluetooth no longer worked. It completely disappeared from the Quick Tray and I couldn't find any way to reactivate it. I looked up a ton of suggestions for support, and either they didn't work or were impossible. i.e.: "Go to Device Manager and go to Power Management settings for your Bluetooth adapter." (There was no Power Management option.) "Go to Services and restart Bluetooth Support Services." (Windows failed to stop the service, so it couldn't restart.)

The only thing that worked, by accident, was when I went into Device Manager and picked "Check for Hardware Changes" on my Bluetooth devices, and that crashed my computer. But when it restarted, Bluetooth worked again.

Unfortunately, the computer went to sleep again later and the same thing happened. I was not able to recreate the solution. I tried cold rebooting and that didn't work either. I even got in touch with Microsoft help and they couldn't help me.

Eventually, I found an updated Bluetooth driver on ASUS' website, and installed it. But when I restarted my computer... Bluetooth disappeared entirely from my Device Manager! I did find a USB device that failed to identify, and when I uninstalled it and checked again for hardware changes, Bluetooth returned. But... the driver listed for my adapter seems to be the same one as before I installed the update. And... I still can't get any of it to reactivate.

I have no idea what to do here. Everything I've been suggested is either impossible or doesn't work. Everything I've tried doesn't work. I cannot figure out how to reactivate my Bluetooth adapter. What am I supposed to do? I use a Bluetooth wireless mouse, so this is a huge pain for just my everyday usage of the computer.

The name's Human Klumpp. I'm currently estranged from my family because I'm suing them for cutting me out of the Nutty Professor movies. And for naming me "Human Klumpp."

Unique matching problem that can't be fixed by show "Fix Match"

So, the short version of this is - I have two different shows that Plex mistakenly thinks are the same show, and I don't know how to get it to recognize the one show as the correct show, because a show-wide "Fix Match" won't do that.

So, I have all four seasons of Tacoma FD in my library. It so happens that for a couple of seasons, they ran an "discussing the episode" after-show called Talkoma FD. I don't have all of those, but I do have season 2 of that. And I had remembered that at one point Plex had sorted the two correctly, but now it doesn't - it combines both under "Tacoma FD" and defaults to playing the after-show episode instead of the actual episode.

I checked the file naming and that seemed to be the problem (apparently a lot of the files were listed as, for example, "TacomaFD.S02E01.Talkoma.FD.Aftershow.Payday" - so I fixed the naming, but the problem hasn't been solved.

I'm not sure what to do. I can't do a show-wide fix match, because the problem is only with the Talkoma FD files - and because Talkoma FD isn't on the Movie Database, TVDB, or the Plex database.

Is there any solution to this? Even when I've had other shows that didn't match something in the database, it usually let me just set them to the folder name. I have Talkoma FD in its own folder separate from Tacoma FD, but I can't figure out how to make it de-match just that folder and let me manually input the information for the show.

I've included screenshots of my Tacoma FD / Season 2 and Talkoma FD / Season 2 folders so you can see, as well as an example of how Plex sorts the files in the media library.

If there's something else I need to do with the naming and that's all, let me know. But I've tried what I know how to do to make sure the naming works already, and it didn't change anything.

Gibberish Text Everywhere / How to make window bigger without causing that

This isn't happening all the time to me, but it's happened a couple of times recently. And it's not every menu. For a while it was only when I brought up a save state. Then the menus started looking like this. It comes and goes and I can't figure out why.

When this previously happened, I tried resetting the config to default and everything worked, briefly. But as I was playing again, after a while this happened again.

I found an older post on the topic that suggested I needed to update the assets... and, as you can see, that didn't help anything. (Image 1 and 2)

I made sure my video drivers were up-to-date as well. And when I started playing, there was still some gibberish.

Now, that said... this seems to only happen when I try to increase the size of the game window. I'm playing a Genesis game (Genesis Plus core), and my laptop resolution is 3840x2400. So even at 10x it's pretty small. I want something bigger without full screening it-- is there a way to do this that doesn't create the gibberish text?

Seasons not adding to a new library

I created a new library and wanted to add a TV show to it. The show has 3 seasons. For some reason only the third is populating in the library.

I have another existing library that pulls from the exact same file sources and it picks up all three seasons of the show.

What gives?

EDIT: I think we figured it out. It's pretty minor. Thanks to all who helped.

Hypothesis about unspoken events between arcs (Season 2)

Taking a friend through the show for his first time, and I was thinking about this recently-- and the recent post on how season 2 might have been improved (and to be fair, I believe even Tony Gilroy said 4-6 were the episodes he wished could've been fleshed out more).

The show is great at not showing things we can logically conclude, even if it takes us a while to realize it. (One of my favorites is in "Welcome to the Rebellion," with the ISB HQ referring to "Jung's agent"-- telling us immediately how Luthen new Bail's team was compromised, and perhaps even that Jung picked the most unreliable, trigger-happy cowboy cop at his disposal, the person most likely to screw up, as a failsafe.)

I realized there isn't much about how the rebel base at Yavin gets formed, but in the year between episodes 6 and 7, it's at least now a thing that exists, and Cassian, Bix, and Vel live there, among others.

What I hadn't thought about until recently is "Why now?" And it occurs to me that the events of the previous arc did a lot to alienate Luthen from those three. Luthen going to Bix behind Cassian's back, or pushing Cassian on Ghorman, was a big reason for Cassian and Bix to have strained relations with Luthen. That said, he did sow some goodwill with them with the Dr. Gorst mission, and Cassian is still willing to defy the Rebellion hierarchy and answer Luthen's call when the mission is important enough (assassinate Meero, extract Mothma).

And "that said" is to contrast them with Vel, who, save the toast with Cassian in the finale, Vel apparently has nothing to do with Luthen at all.. And as we saw, her last mission for Luthen-- one Cassian advised him against-- got her lover killed just when they were reconciling and committing to make an honest go of it as a couple. I suspect that pushed Vel to more or less quit his network and start doing whatever work was needed of her to be part of setting up the rebel base on Yavin.

I feel kind of dumb for this Sidearm / Underlab question

I got the Dual Sidearm permit and the second sidearm storage in my Underlab, but... I can't put a second sidearm in storage. There's still only a place to burrow in front of the first storage tank, and trying to store a sidearm still just swaps out the first one instead of filling the other storage tank. How do I actually put the second sidearm in storage?

What really gets me about this cancellation is just how little effort NBC put into marketing the show.

Compare this to St. Denis Medical. There were a flood of ads for weeks for St. Denis before it premiered, making sure everyone knew when it aired, etc. And it got a pretty good Monday night slot (which, again, everyone knew because NBC constantly aired commercials for it).

I basically learned about Stumble by accident from a Hollywood Reporter article, and then when it finally aired, NBC unceremoniously premiered it in November (well after most new network shows begin) and in a Friday death slot. They never gave it much promotion or much of a chance.

I like St. Denis too, this is no shade to that show. It's just hard not to think if NBC had put any effort into promoting Stumble or given it a decent time slot— let alone the effort they put into promoting St. Denis— we'd still have it.
