    Windows 10 asking what I want to do when i try to shut down


    Recently did a factory reset on my PC and now having several issues with the OS design flaws, thanks microsoft. This is one of the items on my list.When I click shut down in my start menu, Windows thinks I've clearly made a mistake and wants to gaslight me. How do I fix this? As in, I never want my OS to second guess what I'm doing because that is wasting my time. I thought we resolved these issues with Windows Vista?

    :)

    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
