    Microsoft needs to add a switch so that you could go back to Windows 8.1 menus, metro start button (I hate what Microsoft did to the start menu), and metro apps that stay full screen. Who else thinks so?

  3. Windows needs to add a draft area for text messages

    thank you so much.. for long time I kept it on Battery saver and usually put it on the charger every other night... and it probably could have gone to one more night before charging... I only used it for texting and very little of that compared to what
    lot of people do.. Most of the time, I was only sending 8 text messages a day..and very seldom use it for calls when I am at home.. but now have the WhatsApp on it to communicate with somone in another country... we dont really talk a lot on it less than
    30 minutes usually. so now am charging it more. When I travel, I have two battery power backups I bought to help with power if I need it. I have a friend using a Samsung for texting and chatting and phone calls and his battery lasts about 8 days.. that
    is incredible. Don't know which model he is using. My battery seems to drain a lot just sitting here.

    I tried the OneNote again this morning and it is working now... not sure what the heck was going on yesterday.. I also had an issue yesterday, couldn't even get to the start menu Microsoft needs to add a switch. :( that was not good... No matter what I pushed on nothing was coming
    up...when I finally got into the start menu, I pushed on messaging, people, and several others and nothing was opening for me. it took me about 10 min to get it back working.... don't know what happened and sure hope this doesn't happen again.. especially
    when I am out somewhere and need the phone. this is the first time this has happened ..but I've only had the phone since about beginning of March I think ... or later...can't remember now exactly when I got it. But sure can't have it locking up on me like
    that when I am out if I need to use it or answer a call. Microsoft needs to add a switch. :( that worries me some.

    anyway.. thank you for all your help.. I will learn this stuff eventually... Ive used phones for texting, checking emails, going on facebook (when I was in hospital), talking, but this windows stuff is different and I never had to update a phone before
    online so m trying to learn it all. I appreciate your help ..



    have a great day Microsoft needs to add a switch. :) Microsoft needs to add a switch. :)

    Have you made a request on Windows Feedback? If MS gets enough request maybe they will.

    I don't think there's going to be options.

    This no longer works in the 10041 and later builds of Windows 10.

    You'll need to undo and remove the context menu. *Sad

    In that case, see if toggling off/on the taskbar to autohide may help.
