Windows 10: Microsoft need to get their act together

I had read an article that title Microsoft is quietly forcing customers to upgrade to the 1903 build "the bug infested build" even they know that the build is still infested with bug. like the start menu freeze within 5 minutues logging back into window after turning back on the computer.


I am not the only user that encounter this problem and Microsoft can't force anyone to upgrade to the bug version of Windows unless they decide to release new bug to the customers computer with 1809 build - if so, that is an illegal tactic and the company will force their user-base to move to the competation


here is the article where I got the news from :


https://www.computerworld.com/article/3404323/microsoft-cranks-up-windows-10-1803-to-1903-forcible-upgrades.html


hey Microsoft, if you read this stop forcing your customer to upgrade even the problem is not yet resolved for customer that used the first generation AMD Ryzen processor. We don't have the money to upgrade to Intel or the 2000 AMD processor.


This will add to your reputation that Microsoft Window is the buggiest operating system in the computer industry

ACT Pro 2013 will not open in Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

The most likely causes on a standalone are a damaged or invalid .pad file or SQL is not running, or is damaged.

I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if the issue persists.

• • 
    Click your Windows Start button, choose Run and type in actdiag.
    

• • 
    When ACT! Diagnostics comes up, click Databases, the Database List.
    

• • 
    Locate your database in the list, right-click on it and select Detach. Make sure you know the filepath to your database before detaching it.
    

• • 
    When the database has been detached, open My Computer (or Windows Explorer) and browse to the location of your database.
    

• • 
    Locate the .PAD file for your database [database name].pad and delete it.
    

• • 
    Reopen ACT!...you will get a message that the last database opened cannot found, then will be taken to the Open Database dialog box.
    

• • 
    At the bottom of this box, change the Files of Type to .adf, browse to the location of your database and double-click on the .adf file for your database.
    

• • 
    You will get a message that ACT! will verify your database, click OK and ACT will reattach your database to SQL and create a new .pad file.
    
  • 
    Hope this helps.
