  1. Windows 7 isn't actually dead yet


    I still use Windows 7, I can't understand why Microsoft wants you to update to an inferior OSI mean sure, Windows 10 maybe the most developed Windows OS ever, but it's a perpetual beta, always in an early beta, most developed doesn't mean greatest, or even latest, i mean, Windows XP was good, but it only had a 2 year development time, maybe less than that, it was still good, a 5, 6 or even 7 year development period isn't better, it's just a piece of software that has been in the beta phase for 6 years, and that dang internet explorer browser, JUST INCLUDE IE AS A PART OF EDGE! Just kill off IE

    :)

  2. Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

    Cortana isn´t working

    When I hit enter, it did something, but there´s still no Cortana, even after restart. So I tried it again, but now it says that it failed, because it´s already installed and it´s working in PC. So it should work, but Cortana still isn´t here.

  4. Windows 7 isn't actually dead yet

    Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    Managed to solve it... here´s how I did it just in case anyone else has the same problem...

    ->Settings

    ->Printers & scanners

    ->Add a printer or scanner

    ->The printer that I want isn´t listed

    ->Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings

    ->Use an existing port: USB001 (Virtual printer port for USB)

    ->Choose printer

    ->Use the driver that is currently installed

    ->Type printer name

    And done... =P
