How to watch PlayStation's hour-long State of Play and what to expect
PlayStation's first State of Play of the year is shaping up to be quite newsworthy. While Sony hasn't revealed too much about what it will show off (with one notable exception), the stream is slated to last for over an hour, so there should be at least some interesting stuff. The showcase will get underway at 5PM ET on February 12. You can click the play button on the YouTube video above to watch the State of Play in English when the time is right.

The PlayStation YouTube channel is hosting alternative versions of the stream. One has English subtitles and the other is in Japanese. Otherwise, you can react to all the reveals live in Twitch chat.

The showcase will include "news, gameplay updates and announcements from game studios across the globe," Sony said. It will "spotlight eye-catching third-party and indie games headed to PS5, along with the latest from teams at PlayStation Studios."

Microsoft will start refreshing Secure Boot certificates in March for Windows 11 and Windows 10 ESU users
Get ye to Windows Update, because there's a good chance you've got new Secure Boot certificates to install. Microsoft just announced that it will be refreshing those certificates, which were originally introduced when Secure Boot debuted in 2011, as a security precaution. Secure Boot was a way for Microsoft to protect systems from running unsigned and potentially malicious code before Windows launched. It went on to be an installation requirement for Windows 11, as well as anti-cheat software used in Valorant, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6/7 and Battlefield 6.

Without the new Secure Boot certificates, Microsoft says your system will still function normally, but it will enter "a degraded security state that limits its ability to receive future boot-level protections." Basically, you won't be protected from malware and viruses targeting vulnerabilities in older versions of Windows. As expected, Microsoft also notes that unsupported versions of Windows won't be receiving the new Secure Boot certificates. They're only coming to Windows 11 systems, as well as Windows 10 PCs subscribed to Microsoft's Extended Security Updates.

Microsoft says many users will be able to pick up the updated Secure Boot certificates by visiting Windows Update, but a few may need additional firmware updates from their system (or motherboard's) OEM. You'll also be able to track the statu

Is that virus warning real? How to spot false alarms

The testing official explained to Procolored that both Google Chrome and Microsoft Defender had triggered an alarm when the printer software was downloaded, and quarantined it.

Despite Procolored's protests, the tester persisted. He sent the software to the security company G Data, a manufacturer of antivirus programs.

Upon investigation, it turned out that the printer software actually contained a backdoor virus called Xred and a Trojan.

When G Data then confronted Procolored with the results, the company admitted that a virus had crept into its download area and provided a new version of its software.
