    Random updates with Windows 10


    So ever since I updated my Dell Support OS Tool last Tuesday or so, strange things have occurred on my Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Gaming laptop that I really wish would be solved very soon. My issue is that random mysterious updates have occurred on my laptop on a program that I don't see apparently. Not sure if it's the OS Tool or what exactly, but it would often leave a system image and I would often delete it and lose some space for no reason at all until I wait for a few minutes and I'd have the space I have back. Originally I had 58.7 GB in my Apps & features section, now I have 67.9 GB for no reason. Can't really tell if it's the new Edge Chromium doing it even though it acted fine before this started or what exactly, but I scanned for viruses using the Windows Defender and no issue has been found. Any help on this problem?

    :)

    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
