  1. File Explorer isn't working


    When I open file explorer there's no files or anything and it just loads forever. But when I go to the windows thing in the bottom left of my screen and search up documents or something I can see the files. But when I go into a folder all of the files are white. This is really annoying for when I'm just trying to do my school work and I need to submit a file. I think this might be a virus but I don't know what it could be from.

  2. Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

    Cortana isn´t working

    When I hit enter, it did something, but there´s still no Cortana, even after restart. So I tried it again, but now it says that it failed, because it´s already installed and it´s working in PC. So it should work, but Cortana still isn´t here.

    File Explorer Search Not Working


    I am trying to search in File Explorer (Windows Explorer, My Computer) and it will not find anything. I can copy text from a name in the list and paste it in the search box and it still finds nothing. I have looked at the suggestions that have been posted and nothing I find that is relative to this works. Anyone have any suggestions? I am running Win 10 Pro on an I3 coustom desktop computer.

    Why isn't "compact view" in File Explorer working?: I can't get "compact view" in file explorer to work. It says it's on everywhere I check.
