Windows 10: My Preferences do not stick.

I go to Settings and type "What's my version?" Search Results answer? No results for what's my version. So, why don't you make it easy to find my version?

I go to Settings and type in winver and Search Results answer is "no results for winver"

My problem is I need to include a screen shot.

My problem is when I choose "Always use this app to open .pdf files" and hit Okay, it does not accept my answer and next time it asks me again. This mean 4-6 clicks to print out an attachment. This is labor intensive and carpal tunnel prone. Time is money and the more time I spend trying to open a document is time better spent on something else.

Microsoft's Problem is when I type winver into the run command line I cannot copy and paste the text to put it into some blog post. Who thought that up?

This machine is MS Win 10 version 1803 ( OS build 17134.165). Why do I have to type that in? Why isn't Copy and Paste utilized for such an important piece of data that gets used whenever someone asks, 'what version are you on'?

Good surround sound headset

I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue
