    3rd party utilities


    A ms phone tech once told me to not use any 3rd party utilities such as ccleaner (and there are many others) and just rely on Windows to take care of everything. Before he told me this, I had used ccleaner and it seemed to clean a lot of stuff. Frankly I never noticed a difference in my computer's functioning although it did feel good to see all the stuff being cleaned. After the phone call I uninstalled ccleaner and stopped using it. Once again I didn't notice any difference in function. I have 2 questions: Do computer savvy people use these types of utilities and do they actually make a difference. Thanks

    :)

    3rd Party Utilities


    Are you by chance running a 3rd party utilities that helps with "safely removing attached devices," and/or "cd-dvd EZ-kwik ejection"?
    Reason for asking: Some time ago, I ran such utilities for a couple of days, my hard-drives also showed up as "removable," so I removed the utilities. No more problem.

    No I'm not using any 3rd party utilities. I think this problem stemmed from when I used the Samsung Magician software, and it created a partition I didn't really ask for. I didn't initially have the problem on Windows 7 pro but then it mysteriously appeared, which is exactly what happened on Windows 10 pro.

    Windows Mail and 3rd party messages

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

    Please assist me with the following information related to this issue:

    • May I know what exactly do you mean when you say "download messages from 3rd party into Windows Mail"?
    • Are you referring to Mail app on Windows 10? If so, are you able to receive any send email via Mail app?

    If you are facing issues with Mail app, I suggest
    run the in-built Windows Store app troubleshooter and check. Follow the steps:


    • Press Windows Key + X..

    • Click on Control Panel.

    • Select Troubleshooting.

    • On the left pane, click on View All.

    • Click on Windows Store apps to run the troubleshooter.
    Let us know if the issue is resolved or if you require further assistance.
