  1. Restore/Minimize Button Doesn't Work And I Can't Drag File Explorer To My Second Monitor.


    I used a software called Clover for a bit instead of File Explorer, but I deleted it off my computer now. When using Firefox, Outlook, etc. I can move them seamlessly between monitor 1 and monitor 2. With File Explorer, I can't move it since it hits a virtual wall. I also noticed that clicking on the minimize or restore buttons does nothing. I can, however, use the X button at the top right to close File Explorer.


    Am I missing something to make this work properly?

    :)

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Does it mean my HDD is useless?

  3. file explorer - cant drag to second window

    Hi,

    There are several factors that may trigger this issue including your settings or even recent changes to your computer. In order for us to efficiently assist you, we just have few questions
    for you:


    • Were there any changes made to your computer prior to the issue?

    • When you say you cannot drag file explorer on the "second Windows", are you referring to a second monitor?

    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    Regards.

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks for your answer, ken!
    I deleted all my data. I had have it backed up.

    I did a clean installation using the windows media creation tool (usb option).

    No, I didn`t. I thought a clean installation would solve the problem.

    After posting my previous message, I did it.

    After chkdsk, I close cmd and tried to boot and the laptop just turned it off. This morning I`ve restarted it and automatically windows did a repair. Windows has booted and it seems that the repair tool has removed chrome and acrobat pdf reader (the only two programs I had installed after reinstalling windows).

    Now Windows is installing updates and restarting my lapop, I`m kind of frightened. I don`t want it to happen again. Anyhow, I want to know what has brought the issue

    I`ve been looking for information about the error code at the end of the picture and I didn`t get anywhere.
