    Hi everyone. So I have been on the Insider program ever since its beginning, yet this is the first time I encounter this kind of problem. So back in build 20161 (released 2 weeks ago if I remember correctly) the new look in Start menu was introduced and I think it is a way better look than the hideous coloured background introduced in Windows 8. Now that's a great update.

    Fast-forward to 3 days ago when I did something really dumb and so I reset my laptop to the 2004 version, rejoin the Insider program. And the new look is nowhere to be seen.



    I use grey as my accent since it's the most subtle, but still, it looks ridiculous.

    Now I just updated to 20170 (another great update) and I am superrrrrrr impressed with how Windows looks now with the new and super duper dope Settings icon, but the problem persists. What should I do other than just wipe Windows and reinstall?

  2. Change themes back to numbered tiles in Microsoft Mahjong

    Hi Bill,

    Changing the tiles for Microsoft Mahjong can be done through the Theme Settings of the game. To change the settings, follow the steps below:

    • Launch the game.
    • Press F5 on your keyboard to show the settings.
    • Click on Themes and choose your preferred theme under
      Standard Themes
      .

    If are unable to see your preferred theme, we suggest that you update the game on Windows Store by following the steps on this

    link
    .

    Should you need further assistance, you can reply to this post anytime.

  3. The 'Photos' app for photo viewing has disappeared.

    I do not understand this, when I returned to the PC later today my original settings had returned to the start screen, including one other tile which I had also lost but had not yet re-instated. Also the original list of 'All apps' had returned to the start
    screen, including 'Photos'. There is nothing that I am aware of having done that should have caused the original disappearance of some apps from the 'All apps' list and their associated tiles, or that could have caused them to return.

    It has therefore been unnecessary to follow your suggested steps, though I have done so anyway and it works as suggested. Note that I had followed your steps 1 & 2 earlier which is why I knew 'Photos' had not disappeared from the PC but was simply not
    visible on the 'All apps' list and hence my inability to re-pin the tile.

    Thank you for your reply and understanding my frustration.

    Tiles Disappear

    Since the last update I can no longer move the tiles around. When I try they disappear and the tiles take a greyed out appearance. and I have to restart. If I go to the program that I tried to move I get the option to unpin from the start menu. I remove it then pin to start again it does not show in the tiles. Any suggestions on why this is happening?
