Windows 10: Windows 10 - Desktop notifications, calculator, windows menu automatically scroll left?

I am not sure how to express this properly. I will try to explain it in as much detail as I can. sooooo let us start with the calculatorI open the Windows integrated calculator and I can use my keyboard with it fine and use the number pad to enter numbers and operations. But the moment I actually click on a button on the calculator, Windows displays a black outline around the currently selected button and it shoots to whatever the far left one is. On the calculator, the buttons across the top are %, CE, C, and [backspace]. If I click on CE, it will NOT input CE and will scroll over to % and if

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

Feature suggestions - move to proper menus, add Options window

Suggestions:
1) Remove main menus from top left menu (system menu) and move them to a standard Windows menu, at the top.
Leave the 6 system menu items (Restore --- Close) in system menu, move all the rest to that standard main menu. The main menu can be auto-hidable - pressing Alt key to invoke it or hide it, similar to the way IE11 menus and many Windows 10 built-in apps' menus work.

2) And/or, add an Options menu or button, which would invoke a separate screen with GPU-Z Options, similar to how most Windows apps work.
Most Windows apps have a separate Options screen, which GPU-Z lacks - one should be added.

Thanks in advance for listening!
