When you sell, recycle, or donate any gadget, you wipe your data off it. That's just basic computer security, right? It's why the “Reset this PC” option, a staple of Windows for years, includes the option to “Remove everything,” ostensibly wiping the storage drive clean of anything close to personal data. But with the latest versions of Windows 10 and 11, everything doesn't necessarily mean, um, everything.
In a support document posted yesterday and spotted by BleepingComputer, Microsoft warns that files stored in OneDrive accounts might not be removed from a computer's local storage even after the user goes through the “Remove everything” reset process. Obviously that's a huge security issue. To work around it, Microsoft recommends that you sign out of OneDrive or unlink your account before resetting your PC. If you encounter the problem after resetting a PC, delete the Windows.old folder.
Exactly why this is happening hasn't been made clear, but it's something to be aware of if you're planning on passing your hardware along to anyone else. Microsoft says it's working on the problem but there's no timeframe for a fix at the moment.

In recent years, the Jamstack methodology for building websites has become increasingly popular. Performance, scalable, and secure, it’s easy to see why it’s becoming an attractive way to build websites for developers.
There are a lot of benefits of data scalability. The size and the variety of data that enterprises have to deal with have become more complex and larger.

Umbria Network has extended its partnership with MicroBuddies to provide rewards and extra value for both their communities.
MicroBuddies is a collectible NFT breeding game created by Good Gaming! (USOTC:GMER), which is built on the Polygon network. Within the game, players passively earn GOO (an ERC20 fungible token) from their MicroBuddies that can be spent to create rarer MicroBuddies who produce even more GOO. Anyone holding an Umbria DAO's ‘Juiced' Umbrian NFT on the date of the snapshot (Wednesday, 2nd March at 5pm UTC) will qualify for a MicroBuddy, which will be dropped into their wallet on March 9th.
As announced previously, MicroBuddies recommends Umbria's Narni bridge to its players to seamlessly bridge funds from the Ethereum to Polygon network at the quickest and cheapest rates. The upcoming NFT drop will enhance the partnership and help grow and expand the MicroBuddies ecosystem by onboarding a tranche of Umbria's crypto-savvy audience. The collaboration also provides further benefit to Umbrian holders who can extend their NFT portfolio at no cost.
“There's great synergy here and we're looking forward to introducing our community to this exciting strategy, play-to-earn game,” said Oscar Chambers, co-lead developer and founder at Network Umbria. “Umbrian holders can look forward to more functionality and benefits including further NFT airdrops from Umbria's latest partner projects and access to whitelist spots for new mints.”
Fluxty, founder of MicroBuddies, said: “At MicroBuddies we are constantly onboarding new players into our ecosystem, and the Umbria Narni bridge has offered players a cheap and efficient way to move funds from Ethereum to Polygon. We hope this airdrop to the Umbrian holders may serve as a thank you, and as an invitation to freely play our game.”

Operating within the DeFi and NFT space, Umbria Network enables anyone to migrate cryptocurrency assets across chain cheaply and quickly and earn high APYs on those assets with no impermanent loss.

Narni eliminates the barriers to entry for engaging with DeFi applications and NFTs making them much more accessible to a wider audience.
The Umbria ecosystem, built on Polygon, has three major protocols:
A Cross-chain Asset Bridge: enables the fast and cheap transfer of assets between otherwise incompatible blockchains and cryptocurrency networks.
A Staking Pool: users can earn interest on their crypto assets by providing liquidity to the Narni bridge
A Decentralised Exchange (DEX): an automated liquidity protocol powered by a constant product formula, deployed using smart contracts and governed entirely on-chain. Provides fast and cheap token swapping
UK-publicly listed Online Blockchain plc (LSE: OBC) acts as Umbria's coordinator, administrator and advisor. This provides a level of transparency rare in the DeFi space.
