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

issue regarding update of apps

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are unable to access applications on your computer after installing KB4540673 update. I’ll certainly assist you with the issue.



However, please let us know:

• Does this issue occur only with Microsoft Store applications or with third party application as well?
  
• Do you receive any error code/message?
  

If you are facing this issue with Microsoft Store applications, you may want to refer the troubleshooting steps mentioned below:



Method 1: Troubleshoot app



I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the article Fix problems
with apps from Microsoft Store and see if that helps.



Note: Resetting the app will reinstall it and revert it to default settings.




Method 2: Re-register app



If Store app troubleshooter doesn’t work, I would suggest you to try re-registering the apps using PowerShell. Refer the steps mentioned below:

1. Press Windows Logo key + X, and select
   Windows PowerShell (Admin).
   
2. Paste the following command and press Enter:
   Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
   
3. Once the process is complete, restart the computer and check.
   

Method 3: New user account



If re-registering the apps didn’t work, to eliminate the possibilities of account corruption, try creating a new user account and check if the issue persists. Refer the article
Create
a local user or administrator account in Windows 10.



Let us know how it goes.



Regards,

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.”
