    Screwed Up!


    Not sure if this is right section but a few hours ago the whole of Win 10 went config up! I had my images (in the number of thousands) suddenly change real life icons into some damn flower. I seem to recall I had this problem ages ago and you all fixed it but I could not remember/find solution. So I hit the restore button in the hope that it would do a 100% restore. Not a chance. NEVER has system restore ever worked for me, ever. It told me it could not restore win 10 to last Wednesday (today was Sat). So I rebooted, my problem was fixed, all my images reverted to thumbnails of actual images which is what I wanted. Still not solved what actually happened, giving all image icons some bloody flower. So will need to retrace carefully and retrace my steps until I find culprit ands DELETE! In this case probably my fault, now I need to find where?

    Did our Epson printer get hacked?

    Another question, is this on a home network or a work network? The steps @eidairaman1 listed are always a good first step. If this is on a work network you manage, I'd be much more concerned than the home one. It is possible someone is screwing with you, but malware could also be the culprit.
