  1. Can't open apps through search bar, random loading screens, settings crashes Windows 10


    Recently I've been having a problem where I can't open command prompt or control panel from the Windows 10 search bar. Both have default program icons displayed next to them and clicking on them does nothing. I can do Win+r 'cmd' to open command prompt, and then access control panel from there, but I'd rather get to what's actually causing this. I've gotten them to work once or twice not by actually changing anything, but then 30 seconds later they're back at it. Also, possibly related, when I go into settings and click on the option for network settings, the settings app crashes. It happens

    :)

  2. Downloaded app, and a random search bar came to the top of my screen.

    The search bar that is showing on the upper part of the screen is a 3rd party search bar tool. This tool bar may have been included during the installation or when you installed the CamStudio on your computer. To take that off from your screen, we suggest
    that you uninstall the search bar tool. To do that, follow these steps:

    • Right-click on Start and click Control Panel.
    • Go to Programs and features and click Uninstall a Program.
    • Under Uninstall or change a program, scroll through the list to check if there is any third party tool\search bar installed on the computer.
    • If yes, right-click on the tool\search bar and uninstall it.

    Reply to the post with an updated status of the issue so that we can assist you further.

    Windows 10 download speed issues

    Try this method:
    • First of all from Start Menu, open Settings (Type settings in the search bar and it will appear).
    • locate and select “Update and Security“.
    • in this window, Locate “Advanced Options”. Click on it.
    • In Advanced Options; Click on “Choose How Updates are Delivered“.
    • Turn off Updates from more than one place.
    Your system will not work as a seeder for other Windows 10 users. It will give sudden boast to your Slow internet speed.
