  1. annoying explorer bug


    Hello.

    Every time I run my PC (OR almost every time I run it) I have to manually kill explorer.exe and run it again via application manager. If I don't I can't open any Windows tab (like this computer) I can't open folders etc. It's getting annoying and I don't know what to do. I'm running the latest Windows version.

    Bugs that are annoying

    I just upgraded to the fall creators update a couple days ago and i'm not happy.

    Here is a list of bugs that i have that i tried to fix but can't

    • Makes screens too dark(I found a fix using the color manager but it will only apply to one monitor)
    • Toolbar gets stuck open in full screen apps
    • Explorer in task manger no longer has a restart function so i can't fix the stuck toolbar
    • I can't highlight items in the file explorer
    • All apps i open now opens the administrator prompt(never done this before)
    • Can't pin programs to the start menu
    • Had 6 instances of cortana running(huge CPU load)

    I hope that someone can tell me some fixes for these bugs or that this list gets to the developer team and gets fixed soon

    File Explorer stopped refreshing

    Thanks for the suggestion, Spunk. That sounds a bit drastic for the issue, but when it becomes annoying enough to justify, and when I have the time and patience to try it, it may be the next step.

    Explorer 11 bug

    Nope, he didn't get the government websites working in Internet Explorer, they always worked in Internet Explorer. It's the Flash content that IE has trouble with, but he remedied that issue by reverting to Internet Explorer 10. If he switched to Firefox or something else, the government websites wouldn't work.

    Arguably his best option is to use both browsers (IE for when he needs to access government websites, Firefox, Chrome, etc. for when he needs to play Flash content) and not one browser exclusively.

    I'm not contesting that Internet Explorer is near the bottom of the list for me as far as browsers are concerned, but he has to do what's going to work for him. Frankly in this day and age, it's ridiculous that you should be compelled to access a site with a specific browser, but I'm hardly surprised a government website - governments are really out of touch where technology is concerned - requires you to.
