    Dreaded Windows 10 - 2004 update


    Noticed that others are having similar problem to me when accepting update to Windows 10 version 2004 - this totally ruined my HP laptop and I discovered that my SSD had been totally destroyed. I have seen an on line video which explains that fault in download means system is defragged continuously thus wearing down hard drive. How can I resolve this? My second laptop is now vulnerable as it has just said the dreaded 2004 download is ready. Only answer it seems is to prevent the update. I have put it on hold until end of October but what do I do then? What is happening Mr Windows? I am no tech expert! Help!

    :)

    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
