  1. One Windows 10 feature you use all the time that most people completely overlook?


    I have been using Windows 10 for years, but I still randomly discover small features or shortcuts that make a huge difference in my workflow…like the clipboard history (Win + V) or the Focus Assist mode.

    It got me wondering: what other underrated or hidden features are people actually using on a daily basis?

    Would love to hear your go-to Windows 10 tricks that you think more people should know about.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond One Windows 10 feature you use all the time that most people completely overlook? :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
