    My pc wont let me take screen shots open up the settings app, update my pc or extract zip files. when i try to my pc starts to freak out and it doesnt let me open up my windows menu, search or use the file explorer. this has been happening for two months now. It has no error message all it does is crash. the only way i can open the file explorer is going onto task manager and restarting file manager. please help-Vin

    :)

    Windows Explorer acting strangely..

    Thanks for the thought.

    Just this morning, right now, I saw it opened on 'quick access' (fortunately not hanging this time) even though I've tried to disable that so I had a sudden thought and went into the view stuff again and sure enough found right at the top a choice of where explorer should open: 'quick access' or 'this pc'.

    So I have set it for 'this pc' and maybe that'll be the fix.

    and while I was sticking that screenshot in this post I noticed explorer opened with this date grouping thing again, which I hate and I thought I had removed.... I'll try again...

    wouldn't it be good if we could get up a sort of list, like a spreadsheet list maybe, listing down the column all the nonstandards features we've either chosen to implement or MS has stuck in there for us or third party software has put in.... with columns across the sheet detailing what it does and how/if it is necessary for this or that or nothing and enabling us to simply put a checkmark in a cell and have the feature disabled?

    Maybe even a cell at the top we can check and have the whole sheet go back to basic default?

  3. Screensaver system acting strangely.

    1909 (OS Build 18363. 1316)

    A couple of screensavers which I added a while ago no longer work.

    In Screen Saver Settings two of those listed are no longer installed on the PC. If I select one of them, pressing Settings or Preview has no effect, I can't use that saver.

    If I select the other one, the strange image shown in my previous thread appears

    I have spent a lot of time searching for that image on the PC but can't find out where it is.

    Is there some reset function in the system which won't mean having to re-install my many programs and files ?
