    unrequested download


    I am no computer expert but I consistently rejected Microsoft's 'invitation' to dump windows 7 with which I was quite happy in favour of 10. However, a couple of weeks ago my laptop simply stopped and reconfigured with 10. Not only was I unable to complete important work for few hours, but now I'm constantly interrupted by a search popup. All my photographs and videos have been reorganised and shifted somewhere and each time I go to Word I'm faced with lists of things I've used/visited. This is supposed to be helpful?? I don't think so.

    What annoys me most is that Microsoft simply ignored my request and went head and reconfigured anyway. Not a fan.

    Did this happen to others?

    My theme settings are changing

    Since Windows 7 and now Windows 10 my themes are changing unrequested. I have a saved theme but Windows changes it all the time back to a different setting. What can be done?

    Win 10 unrequested shutdown/sleep

    Beginning 10/2017, my desktop shuts down or sleeps on its own. It happens on or off line. I've read about unrequested restarts, but not my problem. The incidents are becoming more frequent (six times in the past half hour this morning). Any suggestions?

    unrequested download

    At the Desktop, press the Windows key , type Settings and press Enter. Click on Update and Security, Recovery, Rollback to Windows 7 and press Get Started. Your computer will be returned to exactly the way it was before the upgrade.
