  3. Win 10 upgrade

    My computer run very smooth with Win 7. After I upgrade it with Win 10, everything changed, The interface desktop screen became fuzzy and faded to the point I could not be able to recognize or read the icons. The fonts in all programs became faded.
    The smoothness of Win 7 disappeared and everything is a mess now. I changed the monitor, but the problem was still there. The video card software is updated. I don't like what I see, what I should do now other than going back to win 7?

    Did you update any software before this problem started? Does the problem appear in one or all user accounts?

    Can you start an admin command prompt - Windows key + X, then choose Command Prompt (Admin)? From there you can run sfc /scannow to check / repair your system file. If that doesn't work, can you boot into Safe Mode and run the same check from there?

    Try creating another account to see if the issue is due to a corrupted account profile.

    Other options are then to try to restore your PC to an earlier date if you have a system restore point, restore from a backup if you have one or run a repair install.

  5. Here is everything installed over the last few days: https://i.imgur.com/exSC55k.jpg
    There is nothing that I can think of that would cause this.

    I also did SCF /scannow & it says:

    "Windows resource protection did not find any integrity violations".

    I also created another account by going into: settings > accounts > family and other people. I didn't create an account and still the icons had no text under them certain icons are missing.

    I don't know what else to do?

    SFC is useless to run don't bother. Try to uninstall and reinstall your video drivers using Display Driver Uninstaller. I had this issue once and that fixed it.

    If you can't browse then use another computer to download DDU and put it on a USB flash drive to run it.

    Do you have any tweakers installed? If you do, try reverting any changes (shortcut arrow removed or font changed etc.).

    If nothing else, in-place upgrade could help. Follow tutorial (by Brink): repair-install-windows-10-place-upgrade

    Is it DDU v17.0.7.0 from Wagnardsoft?
    I'll have to do it via USB bc I can't see a thing.

  9. No tweaks the only thing I really installed recently was Microsoft word and I updated Java. Oh and I turned Windows defender back on through regedit. I posted a screenshot of everything installed in the last 3 days. I do Windows update automatically but I doubt it's that.

    Not necessary installed in the last 3 days. Tweak could be done a while back. Seen something similar (just text below icons missing) happened and it was caused by a system tweak performed long ago...

    Do you have any recent system restore points? System image would be better, but if you'd have it, you won't be asking for help here...

  12. L I reinstalled windows 10. However for some reason after I did windows updates via Settings the touch screen no longer works in the laptop is very sluggish. The re-installation of windows fixed icons and find errors but once I did a Windows update everything with the crap. My two Toahiba laptop is not that old and should not be the sluggish I have no idea what is going on?

    Icons & Fonts have disappeared on Win 10? Everything is blank.

    What is the make and model # of your laptop?
    Press the Windows key+X choose Device Manager. Do you have any yellow flags next to any devices? If so, these devices need drivers installed. Even if you don't have yellow flags,
    Go to the Manufactures Support/Download Drivers site, and type in your model# and choose your Version of Windows 10 (ie) 32bit or 64bit and download the Chipset driver and the Video driver for your model
