  1. Window 10 Deleted Critical Files From My Laptop


    On my main hp laptop, I have windows 10 as my OS. I have the updates set to ask me before they install, because previous updates have made me unable to use my internet when installed. Yesterday however, my laptop forced me to install the new update. Once finished this morning, I could not use my laptop because it had deleted some file needed to even use the home screen.


    When googling and youtubing a fix, I found that the only two solutions were to boot safe mode from the home screen (Which doesn't work cause you literally can't do anything on the home screen its just completely black) or boot in advanced boot menu which is disabled unless you turn in on from the home screen. (Again, can't do that cause the home screen is the problem) Does anyone have any idea how to fix this issue?

    :)

    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

  3. Laptop no longer hibernates on critical power

    Hi Mike,

    The laptop's battery is possibly wearing out. Since you haven't change any settings, we suggest that you change the critical battery level a bit higher so that your laptop can perform a hibernation on a much higher percentage than the default. Follow the
    steps below:

    • Type Power Options on the Start menu search bar.
    • Under Battery, click on Critical battery level.
    • Chang the default percentage to 10% or higher.
    • Click on Apply.

    Looking forward to your response.
