  1. Saving or Exporting files only creates temporary file


    I've recently just bought a new laptop and installed my usual software on it but I've just noticed that when I create artwork and save/export it to a .png it only creates a .tmp$$ file. Now I can remove the temp part up to the .png extension and it'll work but that's a fair bit of hassle. Now this is where i know it must be a Windows 10 issue as i logged onto a different user on the laptop and tested it on that side and it works perfectly.


    Why does exporting a .png only create a .tmp$$ file for a user but not all users? nothing has been done differently in terms of installation per user.


    If anyone knows how to fix this maybe a permissions issue? or would like to take on the challenge i'd be hugely grateful!

    :)

    Saves log files ?

    You can either read the files in Windows or my preferred method is.....

    Download CCcleaner from here...........

    CCleaner Professional | Try the world’s most trusted PC cleaner, free!

    You can then run cleaner, you will see the log files listed, then if you right click you can save as a text file and then have a read. You may also get an "error reporting" log listed seperatly.

    Outlook PST File Problem

    That is exactly what I was going to suggest. Export everything to another PST file, delete the old(or rather move it out of the default folder) and replace it with the new PST file that you exported.

    Exporting Video File Created with Windows Photo

    While using Windows Photos , to upload a file for sharing , after 'Create Video' , the generated export file , results in a pixelated grid output.

    A combination of still photos and video clips. The format is .mp4 and shows where saved in File Explorer Directory. There is sound, but no image.

    What further steps are required for successful exporting and playback of created video file??
