  1. Can't sign into laptop [Windows 10]


    So, picture this: I just stayed up past 5 am making a massive beat that I was so proud of, I save it, export it, and a windows update pops up. I let it do it's thing, it finishes, I turn my computer back on and now I'm stuck on the wallpaper and whenever I click any button (besides the windows key), my name pops up with the loading circle under it but then it disappears and is replaced by the time/date. I can click/hold buttons down for as long as I want, it will just flip between my name and the loading circle and the time/date and the wallpaper. I can't restart my computer or try to put it into safe mode. I can't do anything. All because Microsoft have no idea what they're **** doing with these updates.

    I want help for this, but I also just want to say **** off to Microsoft, like, you's destroyed my laptop with an update, something that is supposed to make the software better, not **** worse.

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”
