    I don't want the stupid impossible to use "apps" you have. I want my old reliable programs that I can use. They have easy to find controls and tools that actually help me get work done. Your stupid photo app has published all my private photos for every one to see. I tried to change my screen settings so that I can see what I'm DOING BUT {now the caps lock is **** Up} I can't adjust the settings the way I had them on my old system. I can't even get the setting back to where it WAS when I first started!

    Programs Missing From Control Panel List


    I was able to get rid of XNVIEW by downloading it and using it's own uninstaller.
    Have tried method suggested by Pyramid 10 with photoscape without success.
    Can't figure out how to do what is asked.

    Your next suggestion?

    Enable or Disable Microsoft Edge Tab Preloading in Windows 10  

    OK, I understand that I cannot find the entries in the registry because the default settings doesn't have them, i.e. they haven't yet been created either via GPEdit or .REG file.

    Discussing just Option 2 (Enable or Disable Microsoft Edge Tab Preloading using a REG file), I also understand that the .REG file in step 3 creates a key/value entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE which has the effect of 'Disable Tab Preloading'.

    What I don't understand is why - in step 2 (Enable Tab Preloading), i.e. to revert to default - the .REG file removes keys under both HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

    Why would there be a need in step 2 to remove a key under HKEY_CURRENT_USER (to revert to default) if step 3 didn't create the key/value under HKEY_CURRENT_USER in the first place?

    why is the microsoft store full of crappy apps?

    they need to start putting apps worth getting instead of these fake ones or
    low

    quality ones. its a shame the microsoft hasn't actually caught up with
    apple
    or even google. if they don't step up their A game they wont last the next decade. seriously microsoft. why the
    crappy knock off apps and why are none of the apps people are actually using like tumblr, kik, instagram, snap chat in your store?
