  1. Reinstalling Windows 10 Education?


    Hey everyone, sorry to have to ask but this should be pretty quick:


    I have a valid license for Windows 10 for Education, and had it installed on my main desktop computer until I discovered a fairly persistent malware incursion on literally every device on my home network and had to clean house, which unfortunately entailed formatting Everything. In this case, everything unfortunately included my backup installation ISO for Windows 10 Education.


    Am I right in the assumption that the only legitimate way to reacquire an installation image I can activate with my educational license is paying Kivuto $14.99 for Access Guarantee Retrieval? I still have my product key, both in the form of the actual sequence of characters and the license stored on my motherboard, if that makes any difference (I would assume it doesn't, but it seemed worth mentioning).


    I get that it's a pretty small amount to justify asking a question like this over, but given that I had to cancel all of my cards for the same reason I had to format all of my drives, I'd have to actually go down to my bank in person before I could do that. Since I work 9-5 at the moment, that'd mean waiting until Saturday, and I kind of need to start working on things from home again as soon as possible or this is going to be a pretty stressful holiday season.

    Thanks for your time, regardless of whether or not there's another option.

    :)

    [Solved] Windows 10 keeps reinstalling KB3119142

    I noticed quite some time ago that KB3119142 (Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Update 4 Redistributable Package) kept reinstalling itself for some reason. At least once daily. Sometimes up to several times a day. I just ignored it. It didn't seem to be doing any harm. And I figured they'd eventually fix it. Well...days turned into weeks, weeks into months, with no end to the problem in sight. It dragged on unsolved for at least the last few months. Literally reinstalling itself hundreds of(at least a hundred, felt like more) times in that period of time.

    So I finally googled it a couple days ago. And just got around to fixing it today. Which appears to have worked. And it couldn't have been easier to do. I feel so stupid to have let it intimidate me for so long.*Oops! Reinstalling Windows 10 Education? :oops:
    Below are links to the thread that I got the fix idea from, and the official MS support info page for KB3119142(from which I quoted the above).

    Reinstalling Windows 10 Education?

    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
