Windows 10: Average day in Win10 I guess

Not sure if this issue has been documented.

I was playing around in Python3 and seem to have created two folders that are in purgatory within Windows10. One is called C:/path/to/file/ + tem + / and was "deleted", the other is called C:/path/to/file/ + str(now) + / also "deleted". Windows has them in the directory I created them in yet wont get rid of them. I try to delete them and they are immortal, Windows wont let me delete them because they don't exist, yet I can place files into them. But when I place files in they create another folder that is "linked" to themselves. Meaning I have to delete the clone for the files to show up in the immortal directory, but all the files can be transferred and deleted with no problem. The first time they were deleted Windows showed the deleted prompt with no issue.

I have attempted to replicate the issue by creating folders with space and plus signs in their names. They can be deleted with no issue.

Is there anything that can cause this to happen? Any idea on a service that can be used to delete files that technically don't exist yet exist in memory?

average formula will not average

I can see three serious problems:

• The "IfError" function suppresses all errors in your formula. You must omit it while debugging the formula.
• You cannot use the "Search" function for a range of cells, only for strings.
• You are posting in the wrong forum (same as you did in January). For a formula as complex as this one you must go to a dedicated Excel forum. Remember to reveal the whole purpose of the formula when reposting instead of just casually throwing in the term
  "Average".

Win10: windows update stuck at never ending loop ?

When in win10:

• Update&security -> Windows update -> Finding update... .... .... ....

Planning to download the latest Win10.ISO (vers.1803) and manually update:
- Then wait that my ordered new SSD arrives and clone the old HDD to it.

 

laptop doesnt boot automatically

This is what happened.

1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.
