Windows 10: Sr. Citizen Questions (probably dumb and basic, but would appreciate

Hello,

Using Windows 10 as a virtual machine (via the program Parallels) from a Mac.
Not used to the nuances of W10, and am really confused.
Sr. Citizen now, so please put up with some dumb questions:

a. The program(s) listings on the left side continually shows nonsense like Disney, Xbox, etc.
I do the Uninstall, but they keep coming back. Any way to stop them from re-appearing.

b. I don't want Cortana to show, anywhere on my desktop.
How do I eliminate it, it's search box, etc. from my screen ?

c. Where, or how do I install a normal W10 Search box, assuming there is one ?

d. I downloaded zip file for a program I would like to install.
I keep getting msg's that it won't allow me to do this, as I, or the program, lacks
the appropriate "permissions".

How do I get around this, please ?
Is there a global setting, perhaps, so I wouldn't have to do this each time ?

I'm using AVAST. Could they be blocking it, perhaps ?
(but I really get the impression that it is W10 doing the blocking)

e. Where do i find the Add & Remove (for programs) screen ?

f. There doesn't seem to be a Delete function for some of the Folders when I right-click.
Is there a trash, somewhere to delete them ? I don't see any.

Just one more (for now), please. I'm using AVAST. Does AVAST prohibit Windows Defender from working, or do they both function together ? BTW: how do I access Windows Defender; can't seem to find it anywhere.

Much thanks; really appreciate the help,
Bob

Program Files (x86) Question, Please ?


Hello,

Really a dumb question, but will blame it on my Sr. Citizen status now.

Looked in File Explorer, etc., but just cannot find it.

How do I see and get to a listing like "program Files (x86)" ?
Such as what easily appears in W7

Where is it located, exactly ( the "program files" complete list with the x86 suffix) ?

I can find the program files, but not with the x86

Much thanks, appreciate the help,
B.

 

Citizen GSX-190 does not work after upgrading to Windows 10.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

I apologize for the delay.



I suggest you to go to the manufacture’s website and download Citizen GSX-190 driver for Windows 8.1, install the drivers in compatibility mode.



Refer the steps:

• Download the Drive from the manufacture’s website, Right click on the setup file and select Properties.
  
  
• Click the compatibility tab, tick the box next to Run this program in compatibility mode for and select Windows.

Regards,

Guru Kiran
