  2. 3Colors Win User

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Completely reset laptop smooth but very slow at the same time :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

  3. What is smooth scrolling?

    Hi Kenneth,

    Smooth scrolling is a feature available in Internet Explorer that allows you to scroll through a web pages smoothly, as the name of the feature suggests. If this is turned off, when scrolling through a web page, you'll notice that the scroll
    bar slides down as if it's slightly delayed, but if this is turned on, the scroll bar slides down smoothly, without delay.

    This is useful when scanning through long web pages or articles.

    To turn on/off smooth scrolling, see the following steps:

    • Open Internet Explorer, click the gear icon, and then click
      Internet
      Options.
    • Click on the Advanced tab.
    • Locate Use smooth scrolling, and tick the check box if you want it turned on/off.

    Let us know if you have further questions.

    Fix Laptop after upgrade to Windows 10 now slow or freezing completely

    Hi Marina,

    What is the error that you see on Startup? Provide complete and exact error code or message.

    I suggest that you run the SFC scan and check if it helps to improve the Computer performance. Follow the steps :

    • Press Windows + X
    • Click Command prompt (Admin)
    • Type sfc /scannow
    • Press Enter
