Windows 10: Microsoft- Windows 10

Am I the only one... frustrated with Microsoft and Windows 10?
Fixes are never right the first time. Fixes cause other issues.

I'm feeling like a fish on the hook! Can't operate without them!

Appears to me to be a dysfunctional, co-dependent relationship. I have to pay maintenance for continual...… issues. Issues, that appear to me, as ridiculous.... And un-addressable from our end of the problem; we after all, we did not inadvertently Create them.

The proverbial, "icing on the cake" for me? The HIDDEN OBJECTS game offered: TO ME!: for free.

I'm sure you know the one.... where you need to spend actual=REAL money to play? The one with the jacked cursor? AND! as I experienced just now, THE ONE YOU CAN'T EXIT! Ya know: escape button doesn't work;;;;;; the tapping, holding or SLAMMING of the "X"--- doesn't exit you either? Yeah, that one. I had to close down the entire computer to exit..... All because I didn't want to invite a friend to play with me... over the internet.

Prime, inadvertent example... right here on this page. See all these TOOLs to assist with the written word(?) Well,, typed word.

(TeeHee) Used to assist us with conformity? Every indent, explanation point:::every comma! is a form of expression. And Boy! is my curser performing weirdly right now!

Well, what do I know! I was gonna point out not button existed for spell check... but then I spelled a word wrong. Welcome to the Future! I'm so glad I'm still here. ((I did delete that game though))

Microsoft Selects Dolby Audio for Windows 10

it would've been great if microsoft added HEVC decoders, LAV filters along with other codecs with Windows 10, and developing WMP to be better than VLC, KMPlayer and such sorts of media players.

Nevertheless, this is good step for microsoft, by far.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

• Launch the Store from your Start menu.
• Click the user icon next to the search box.
• Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
• Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
• When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
