Windows 10: "Answers" to too many Questions supply wrong info FOR CURRENT VERSIONS of related programs

This Question was going to be about Skype. I found Answers to Questions similar to mine, none of which helped, all of which said "do this" but "this" isn't on my screen in the current window. Too often the Answer has valid info for an earlier version of Windows and/or the app, but the info is wrong for the current versions.


About Microsoft and Windows

FACT Windows and app updates can make "old" Answers to Questions "null and void".

FACT The following is NOT REQUIRED to accompany every Windows Question and Answer.

• Date of post mm/dd/yy
• Windows version e.g., 10
• Windows OS version build e.g., 18363.719 to help mostor just 18363
• App name e.g., Skype
• App version e.g., 8.58.0.93 to help mostor just 8.58

Question When will Microsoft implement the requirements?


A form could easily be created to provide text boxes for entering the required fields' data and programmed to NOT allow Question or Answer to be submitted until requirements are met. There should be a way tosave each user's form data for at least the currentthread but preferably permanently until user changes it. Otherwise, the repetition would drive participants away.


If Questions and Quality Answers are at all valuable as methods of learning or being otherwisehelpful, Microsoft would find the resources to implement the requirements.
