    What is happening to Windows 10


    Hello!

    I was quite happy using Win10 with a Homegroup, for my Desktop and two laptops.

    I have an All-in-one printer hanging off the desktop.

    Everything worked just fine.

    Then you took away Homegroup and it took me about a week to get my laptops to see the desktop and be able to print, and get Windows Live Mail back because the Win10 mail app is rubbish.

    A couple of day ago there was another update, now my scanner will only scan one document, then if I try and preview another all I get is "not responding" and I have to turn the scanner off and restart. This morning Windows Live Mail will not see the BT server. There is nothing wrong with the server as if I go directly to BT Email it works a treat, but again it does not have the same facilities as Windows Live Mail. Also when I log in to my desktop I keep getting asked to sign in to One Drive, I don't use One Drive, I want my data to stay on My pc and no go off into a cloud. I have more than ample storage on my pc's.

    What is going to change next, to try and get me to use the cloud?

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
