    Weird download problems.


    Hi hope someone can help, I've all but given up !


    Just over a month ago some Edge glitches plagued me, a multitude of little things not working properly.

    One of the most annoying was that it refused to download anything that wasn't a picture.

    I spent ages, most evenings, looking online to see if this sort of thing was common, and trying to

    find a way to uninstall and reinstall Edge.

    After nothing worked and edge was repeatedly described as integral to win10 and unadvisable to remove,

    I finally resorted to a repair install of win10.


    It seems to have dealt with most problems I was having, but I still get no history and sadly still cannot

    use edge to download. I moved the download area as was suggested.


    I recall seeing something that said, and I might be slightly wrong (mming),

    "the browser makes a cache folder to store downloads", and gave me directions to change how it did this.

    I remember seeing it was set at zero size and thought I'd found my answer, but it wouldn't permit me to

    change the value to anything other than 8, giving an error (basically a wrist smack, no details) yet the box

    itself said the minim was iirc 150. Even with 8 in the setting it just forgot it after. I went back three or

    four times, zero again.

    I cannot find the place that gave me this info and I don't remember how to get the setting back,

    but even if I could I'd have that same problem.


    Oh, I forgot to say, when attempting to make a download, the word "Refresh(f5)" appears in the top left

    of the screen. It doesn't actually refresh the web page though.


    So, although i hope nobody had/has any of these problems, i also hope someone out there can help me with mine?

    Thanks in advance !

    :)

    New here and seeking for help: problems with graphic card

    Thanks very much lilhasselhoffer. I'll start doing what you suggested step by step.

    One question thou: you suggested me to Download the latest driver package from Nvidea. However, the link you posted is for the newly released GeForce GTX 760? Am I supposed to download the drivers for that card?

    Sorry for my questions. As I said, I'm not an expert at all.

    Weird BSOD problem


    Hi Everyone,

    I have a weird BSOD problem which I cannot solve for a while(it persists still after upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7)

    The main strange thing about this is that I get BSOD only after cold boot.
    So it acts like this:

    1. start PC.
    2. Get to Windows Logo Screen
    3. BSOD
    4. Restart
    5. Get to menu where I can try to repair or Start NormallyIf I Choose Repair, it will fail to repair and will try to restoreIf I Choose Start Normally, it will start OK, no BSOD, can work normally, games, browse internet, everything is normal.6. Shutdown PC
    7. Next time when I start is all over again i.e. Go to Step 1

    I have this problem for a while, so what I tried:
    • Another Windows 7
    • Another HDD
    • Only HDD connected
    • Changed RAM
    • Tried with built in GPU
    • Upgraded to Windows 10


    Result is the same as above every time.

    Please suggest what could be the cause.
    Logs collected with DM_Log_Collector, attached.


    Thank you

    PS. This thread is a continuation of this one: Frequent multiple errors BSOD. Solved - Windows 7 Help Forums the only thing changed is Windows 10 now. instead of Windows 7. If that helps somehow.

    Weird download problems.

    Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...


    That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
    a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
    b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

    I suggest Option 1 is easier.

    If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.
