Windows 10: Some problems with Windows 10

I have some problems with my Windows 10 64-bit laptop, and it could be better to post different questions for each problem, but there might be a really low chance that they're somehow related.

The first problem that I had was when I used an app that used an explorer window, such as the window that I choose to save or open a file in Notpad, Paint, etc. When I use the drop down menu of the folder path, the files and folders in the menu have a colored filename, in some apps, it's a random color, e.g. green, purple, and in most apps it's a dark red, but the shade of red is different in each app. (Pictures attached)







I don't exactly remember, but I think it happened after I upgraded windows 10 to version 1809. Windows didn't automatically update it, so I used Microsoft Windows 10 Update Assistant, and it updated.

Another problem is that my touchpad isn't working, but my connected USB mouse works. (My laptop is ASUS GL502VMK btw). I tried downloading and reinstalling the drivers, but nothing changed. It sometimes started working again, but most of the time, it doesn't. This might be because of me "accidentally" turning on or off the touchpad, because I don't even know if it's possible to turn it on or off, and how I can turn it on or off.

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

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.
