  1. Can't update Win 10 Home in any way


    A few months ago, i tried to search for updates in settings, but it just gives a blank screen. After that, i tried to manually install the latest update, but i got this error: "Can't find the necessary file. Please check if you have permission to write to the installation folder". I searched this error on the internet, but nothing that helped. Today i tried to reinstall windows with the option to keep all files and apps, but on there, i got some weird error too that said i need to uninstall virtualbox, even tought there is no trace of the app on my pc.

    Should i just hard reset my pc, or is there still a way to update it?

  3. win 10 update leaves vertical pink line on screen

    today i applied latest win 10 update and now i have a vertical pink line on screen, it remains on every screen. i have tried these fixes

    Step 1: I suggest you to run SFC scan,
    System File Checkeris a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.

    Follow the below steps:

    • Right click on the Start button, click on
      Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type “sfc /scannow” without the quotes and hit
      Enter.
    • After the scan, restart the computer and check for the issue.
    Step 2: Also, I suggest you to update the display drivers and check.

    Steps to Update the Display Adapter driver.

    • Press Windows key + Xkey when you are at desktop.
    • Select Device Manager.
    • Expand Display Adapter.
    • Right on the Display Adapter and click on
      Update driver software
    BUT i still have the line on screen.

  4. Can't update Win 10 Home in any way

    Lumia 1020 running Win 8.1 is not detected by my desktop (Win 8.1) and laptop (Win 7)

    Hello,

    Since 2-3 weeks now, I have not been able to connect my Lumia 1020 phone to either of my machines (Win 8.1 and Win 7). Not sure what changed with either of the devices in the meantime.

    I have a Lumia 1020 with the following configuration:

    - Carrier: AT&T

    - Software: Windows Phone 8.1 Update

    - OS Version: 8.10.14203.306

    I've tried:

    - Steps listed in here:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2749484
    but with no success.

    - Soft-resetting the phone but to no avail.

    - Turning the phone all the way off. Connected the phone to the PC but drivers did not load

    - Running Microsoft FixIt tool

    - Steps listed in several other communities related to other users having similar problem with their Win 8 phone

    Also, I do not see my phone name listed under System information. It shows my phone as an Unknown USB Device with an Exclamation mark.

    Any suggestions/help?

Can I not get automatic updates now that I'm at the end of support for that...
