  1. What happened to my Computer?


    I just went into my computer after the new update for Windows which is in trial phase. My Cortana Search box disappeared. So did my Bing Wallpaper, the colors in 'Apps' , and I have a black screen, a black taskbar...and I don't know how to fix these things. Without Cortana's search bay, I don't know what I will do to get quick, up to date answers to my questions or where to go. I DO NOT LIKE THIS VERSION! My computer refused to work unless I did the update, and I can't undo it. When I looked it up, I only got answers from 2017, 2018. It is now 2020 and in a 2 months we will be in 2021. Please help me with this problem and get back to me - as I'm certain that a lot of people are discovering the same thing.


    I'm also having trouble with Facebook Gameroom where I constantly get kicked off their game called Solitaire Social. I lost points, magic, my position in the play and standings, and extra turns. I've complained about this for 2 weeks and there has not been a resolution because the game pops off before I can go to their help in that screen in order to report again what is happening.


    This is NOT my computer. It's brand new and all my Network connections are sturdy, security is working multiple times a day, and downloads take just a minute or so. This is a problem with the programs and this update. Please respond to my email address and help me fix what is now gone.

    :)
