Hi @Tech2124
The openspecs-* tags are dedicated to supporting issues related to open specifications. You can find open specifications at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/openspecs/
Your inquiry is not related to open specifications. I have removed the openspecs-windows tag from your inquiry and have added windows-10-general tag to it.
