    Why can't Microsoft give the end user the choice to install something, every GD'ed update I have uninstall Edge, and every other POS app, widget or software I don't want, never wanted to use. Have I missed a setting? Is there a way to keep the OS up to date but keep all of the F'ing bloat ware off my machine?

    :)

    Current active users that are friends

    The other reason I suggested this is that users can add characters to their username that are not alphanumeric (e.g. user*). This confuses things somewhat when looking at the list.

  3. Edge Search Does Not Permit Change of Region


    I got these suggestions from the Microsoft Community forum.No. 1 worked for me:

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.
    We have reproduce the issue here and we are able to access non-regional search for google using Microsoft Edge.
    I would suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps.
    Step 1:
    Clear browsing data option of Microsoft Edge and check if you face the issue. To do so perform the steps below.

    1. Click on the More actions icon next to the feedback icon present on top right corner of the Project Spartan homepage.
    2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    3. Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files and click on Clear.
    Step 2:
    I suggest you to create a new user account and check if the issue occurs.

    1. Go to Settings.
    2. Choose Accounts and then select Family and other users.
    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.
    5. Click on Finish.
    6. Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.

    Windows 10: Is it Possible to Have a Selective and Smart User Account Option?

    Hello,

    I suggest you to either login with administrator account or you can refer to the below steps to provide full permission to a particular file or folder.


    • Select the file or folder which you need to provide full permission.

    • Now right click on that file or folder and click on Properties.

    • Click on the Security tab.

    • Click on the user account through which you are logged in. Clicking on the user will show you the permissions set for the user pertinent to the folder.
    After you have viewed the permissions that are already set, you can now click on the Advanced Button that is right below the "Permissions for Authenticated Users".


    • Once you have clicked Advanced, a box would appear, the "Permission Entries" box, which shows all the permissions that are set for the users.

    • Now, after you have spotted the user whose permissions you wish to change, click "Change Permissions".

    • Click on the user you would like to edit, and then click the option that says "Change Permissions" which is right below the box. To change permission you have to click on edit.

    • Once edit is clicked, you are going to get the same box pop up but this time you can actually edit the options. You can do that by clicking the "Administrators" user again, and this time, you are going to click the "Edit" option.
    Hope this would help. If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to assist you.
