  1. 2nd Display Shows Same Background as 1st only on Startup


    On windows 10 I have 2 monitors a 1920 x 1080 and a 2560 x 1440. I set up my monitors to slideshow through about 3 dozen different images, with different images on each monitor that stretch to fit the monitor.

    2nd Drive Files not Showing in Quick search

    Hi all,

    Background: I'm running Windows 10, anniversary update; with two physical drives, each also shown as a logical volume (C and D).

    Issue: When searching from the Start menu, files on my C drive show up, however the ones on D do not.

    Troubleshooting I have done so far:

    • Verify that the 2nd Drive (D) has indexing enabled
    • Verify that the folders on the drive also have indexing enabled
    • Rebuild index
    • The files DO appear when searching the 2nd drive via Windows Explorer, but NOT through the start search
    Is this a known issue, and what steps can I take to resolve this?
