    Why can't I get the old google icon back?


    I reset my computer for performance issues. As a result I lost most of my apps including google. I downloaded google chrome and chose google chrome as my default browser. The icon that I pinned to my task bar looks like an image of a file. I want the old icon similar to a multicolored circle. How do I get the google icon back?

    :)

  2. 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.

    Hello,

    The best that we could suggest that you can try is to check if you are using a proxy to connect to the internet. If so, try to disable the proxy connection and check if it helps. Here are the steps:

    • Click the "Gear" icon at the top right corner in Internet Explorer.
    • Click the "Tools" button, and then click "Internet Options".
    • Click the "Connections" tab, and then click "LAN settings".
    • Uncheck the "Use a proxy server for your LAN" box.
    • Click "OK".
    If the issue persist, please do reach out to Google support for more troubleshooting steps, and also so they can check and assess your account .

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    Hi,

    I realize that you need the old Windows start menu. I will try to help you with this issue.

    You can click the hash icon located above the 3D Builder icon to check if that helps.

    Suggest you to follow these steps to check if that helps:


    • Press Windows key + I to get the Settings screen.

    • Click on Personalization and click Start.

    • Enable the feature for “use start full screen”.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Thank you.
