I was surprised to receive my order in a timely manor. Thankyou. The geek bar I ordered I was not able to get them in my area. My husband came up with plan B. Ordering was simple and cost less. Thankyou!

Maybe you could send him a Fume Infinity

I see it's been a while since you've posted, but I just wanted to ask—did you ever find where the update or service came from? Sometimes bundled software or driver updaters can run in the background without clear info. I had something similar caused by a graphics driver auto-update. Maybe check Task Scheduler or the installed programs list for anything unfamiliar showing up recently?

I see it's been a while since you've posted, but I just wanted to ask if you ever sorted out the boot issue after installing the new SSD. One trick that helped me in a similar situation was checking the boot order in BIOS after cloning. Sometimes it still tries to boot from the old drive or a disconnected one. Did you manage to get Windows to load properly in the end?

I had a similar problem and it turned out my browser was blocking the redirection script. I fixed it by temporarily disabling my adblocker. Also, be careful with links like giftcardmall.org—it looks legit at first, but it's good to double-check URLs like that before entering any info. I learned that the hard way after getting a fake login prompt once.

I came across this older discussion and wanted to add an idea: I’ve had good reactions with small experience-based gifts, like a cooking class or a ticket to a local event. It feels personal without being too specific. What kind of things does your friend enjoy in their free time?

If your friend likes cozy vibes, I’ve had good luck gifting small sensory things. One idea that went over surprisingly well was night blooming jasmine oil, which I’ve used myself on stressful days since it’s got this calm, mellow scent that isn’t too sweet. Pairing something like that with a handwritten note or a little candle can make the whole thing feel more personal without going overboard.
