Windows 10: All of a sudden when I go to download a file the "save as box doesn't come up..file goes...

When I try to SAVE As a file..normally I right click or control save and "save as" comes up and I can pick which folder I want file to be saved in. Now when I write click just the phrase save as comes up..I click it and I have no idea where file goes. If I click the download arrow it goes to downloads..then I need to go to downloads and move to where file belongs makes no sense.Also I use to have my go to links ..like yahoo...stripe..vendors on browser page. Now that's all gone. Help!!!

Saves log files ?

You can either read the files in Windows or my preferred method is.....

Download CCcleaner from here...........

http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner

You can then run cleaner, you will see the log files listed, then if you right click you can save as a text file and then have a read. You may also get an "error reporting" log listed seperatly.

 

Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

Thanks again!!

I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

I ran SeaTools. These are the results:




Does it mean my HDD is useless?

 

Save File Dialogue Box will not appear for MS Apps.

I continue to find myself unable to save files, as the Save File Dialogue Box will not appear for a small selection of software.

I do not know the exact time and cause of the error, but the only thing I could suggest, is that this resulted from an unexpected system shutdown which possibly occurred a few months back. Most of my software/apps function normally, so it likely went undetected for a while.

What I can NOT do:

• Right-Click images from (any) Internet Browser, to save image. The Save File Dialogue Box will not appear.
  
• Right-Click and Copy an image off an Internet Browser and Paste it into Microsoft Paint, to save it there, as clicking any menu and/or icon for file saving will directly result in a Red X, Critical Error Alert stating "Could not save".
  
• Click Save File from my neither my free, nor purchased Microsoft Store Apps.
  

What I CAN do:

• Drag and Drop image files from Internet Browser directly into any folder.
  
• Click a "Download" button in an Internet Browser, if present on a website, as this downloads a file directly into my designated download folder destination.
  
• Right-Click and Copy an image off an Internet Browser and Paste it into my non-Microsoft Image editing software, from where I can save it normally, as a new file.
  
• Click Save File (any file type) from any and all non-Microsoft Apps. (as stated above)
  

What I have done:

• Windows Update.
  
• Did "all the things" in Windows PowerShell. Doing this, even confirmed there were no detected issues.
  
• Did a Clean Boot with all non-MS services disabled, (as per topic: Redirecting )
  
• Reset Microsoft Store Applications.
  
• Ran a Disk Check.
  
• Ran a Trouble-shooter.
  

What I have NOT done (and wish to avoid doing, as these steps tends to be needlessly obnoxious and stressful):

• Full Windows Reset
  
• System Restore
  
• Microsoft Account recreation
  

One highlight, is the Critical Error message on e.g. Microsoft Paint, straight-out stating "Could not save", as it seems like a significant hint, compared to any other error instances where the dialogue box simply doesn't open and no other information is given.

Thank you for your time!

Sincerely,

Daniel
