  1. Auto folder selection


    I recently connected my Microsoft account to my new computer, then somehow OneDrive decided to sync these three folders Desktop/Documents/Pictures, the problem is I already have two folders labeled Documents and Pictures, and the stupid application messed up my files by mixing everything together!!!!!!!!

    And to make it worst I cannot remove the synchronization, because when I try to unselect it, I get this message "The folder you tried to unselect is the X folder, which is an important folder in Windows and is currently pointed to OneDrive"

    Really thank you Microsoft, every time when I try to give you chance to use your official application, I end up screaming, better buy an apple product or switch to Linux.


    Cannot even find the right category to publish this post, don't care anymore.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Windows 10 folder Auto select problem

    After I updated my windows 10

    • I noticed windows auto selecting last item on my desktop and items in my folder list
    • when i try to open any other item, the commend happens for the auto selected item
    • in my chrome, it automatically scrolls down to the end to the page, even after I do the "control home function"
    • this issue occurs in every other apps, including my FL studio 12
    • i have tried these options
      • change background color in personalization: it doesn't work for me
      • Restore setting: whenever i try restoring my pc to the point before the updates, it runs like 90% and says it fail
      • Contact Microsoft support : only two related articles, which didn't help;
    • I need a specific address to the issue or tell me which no. to call support
    • my email is : <removed>

    w10 auto play dead

    Hi,



    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

    I suggest you to follow the below steps to turn on auto play for DVD and check if it helps.

    • Press “Windows+X”.
    • Go to “Control panel”.
    • Click on “auto play”.
    • Under the tab “choose what happens when you insert each type of media or device” check the box “Use auto play for all media and devices”.
    • Then under the option DVD you can select the appropriate option and check if it helps.
    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.
