Windows 10: Is there anyway of canceling a Microsoft order from the Microsoft Store if you cannot see...

I ordered a Surface Laptop 2 bundle from the Store last weekend. So far, I’ve only received the Office 365 box. When I contacted Microsoft Store for help, I was first told they couldn’t cancel the order because it was already in some order queue. When I asked again yesterday about it, because I had paid extra for 1-2 Business Day shipping, I was told that the orders were backed up for the bundle and they would expedite it. Still nothing, and nearly a week after I ordered. I can get the computer locally, so now all I want to do is cancel the MS Store order. Is it really impossible to do so? All I’ve been told is that I can wait until it’s delivered and send it back. I’ve never had so much trouble with a computer store trying to cancel an order. Is there really no other way to do this? Help!

Microsoft signals end of Paint program

Microsoft has confirmed that it will continue to offer its graphics program Paint.

In a recent update, it had listed Paint as a feature that would be either removed or no longer developed.

Paint, renowned for its simplicity, has been part of the Windows operating system since its launch in 1985.

Microsoft suggested it would not remain on Windows 10 by default but did say it would be available for free on the Windows Store.

Microsoft Introduces Online Store for the U.S.

Redmond-based Microsoft has quietly launched an online store today. It's real and comes without a big advertising campaign all over the world. Simply named Microsoft Store and previously available only in the UK, Germany and Korea, now the store invites all U.S. citizens to buy Microsoft products online too. The store has just started, and it offers an extended line-up of software and hardware products under the Microsoft brand. When it comes to software purchase, the store allows to either order the software and have it delivered to your doorstep, or directly download it after the moment of payment. Users who decide to take the digital download way will be permitted to re-download the product until the mainstream support for it end. Typically this is 5 years after the product is released. Also, you always have the option of copying the downloaded products to physical media if you want to have them available for as long as you need. The original product keys for all the digital downloaded software will be stored in your personal Microsoft Store Account alongside your purchase history so you can use it to re-install your software at any time. Finally, here's the link to the Microsoft Store, you can check it at any time.
