I am on the back porch working remotely (running win10 laptop AMD R7 - 16GB RAM etc.)
Suddenly my mouse stopped working. Cursor disappeared. I figured it was the battery.
Changed battery and mouse still not working. Unplugged & tried the built-in mouse-pad.
Nothing.
The mouse didn't stop working...the machine is completely frozen.
I hold power button & when it comes back I check event log and see the following: https://i.stack.imgur.com/Y75Gs.png[^]
GetCaCaps??? Hmm...
I search (duckduckgo) and find this article:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/idea/607697/amd-ryzen-tpm-scep-certificate.html[^]
I try to load the article and get an error from searching for an error:
https://i.stack.imgur.com/ZKjMS.png[^]
Microsoft's site is down for maintenance???!!!
Holy crap. It's errors all the way down!

These always come in handy when you're suddenly trying to hold things together. Especially in a crowd. You'll HAVE to install SQL Server Management Studio 2014 Express to keep track of which color organizer you used on which bend of discordia (sp?) but eventually ... yattayattayatta.

Yes I agree & you’re right 100%. It is odd that Microsoft attempts to contact a server on behalf of your computer (in the background, while you’re using the computer) then can’t handle the exception when their site doesn’t respond.
It is quite odd that a “professional operating system” which runs on multi core & is multithreaded would lock up the entire system because it couldn’t retrieve a payload (certificate).
Just reporting the error & trying again later wouldve been the Linux (non intrusive) way to handle it.

What? I don't understand what you mean. Please provide more details on your win10 setup, if possible. I'm guessing you've seen this problem too & have been able to fix it? Thanks

I'm just saying. Dust will be the downfall of the corrugated cardboard industry. If you need an explanation then ... Google "Dust will be the downfall of the corrugated cardboard industry".

That was exactly the answer. I looked more closely at the keyboard and saw the bug[^].
I documented in dev notebook in case it happens to others.
Thanks for your help.

Well I'll be. I had forgotten where the term "bug" came from.

So my venerable Samsung Wireless laser printer gave up the ghost. Time to shop.
Brother - would never connect to my wireless network. Back it goes.
Canon - had hopes for this but it turns out the office supply store has incomplete dimensional specs. The paper tray is not included in the depth measurement. Back it goes.
HP MFP 140we - still has dimensions wrong, but not as badly as the canon. Unfortunately, it is an HP+ printer that _requires_ you to maintain an internet connection (or it will stop printing). It also appears (not well described on the outside of the box) that you have to pay a monthly fee to use your printer.
Well, that is not elephanting happening.

We recently bought a little HP ($99) for my wife's WFH situation.
It took only two cartridges (one black, one color -- which means if magenta is out then you replace entire color cartridge. yes, stupid but we were getting her a printer fast.)
It wouldn't print unless you removed the print cable (yes we're using a print cable) and then re-attached the print cable.
finally noticed it said we needed drivers. But drivers require a whole application to be installed that tries to register you to send you ink every month. NO!!
So I returned it the same day & bought a Epson WorkForce WF-2850 online from Target (of all places) shipping was free. It was $89 & has a flatbed scanner, multisheet loader, and is a far better printer. Plugged it in, installed ink & works perfectly.
I will never buy a HP printer so long as they take over your system the way they are now.
Epsons are quite nice. We have two of them now & they work well (for inkjet) and have 4 separate ink cartidges so you only have to replace one at a time.
