  1. Windows 10 Find a Settings Broken. Cannot type or Enter Text.


    I cannot type in the Settings --> Windows Settings --> Find a Settings Box per the circled image.


    Sfc /scannow says it finds errors but cannot fix. I believe this issue only appeared after a windows update, but not sure which. Any ideas how to resolve this problem? No matter what window I go to, I cannot type or enter text in find a settings box.

    The Change only the text size option in the Control Panel has always been the same, even before the

  3. Windows 10 corrupt text

    Hi Jim,

    I realize the inconvenience you are facing with the blur text on the operating system, do not worry we will help you with this issue.

    • Have you logged in using Microsoft account on your device?

    Step 1: Choose the appropriate
    ClearType you wish to and check if it helps.

    Step 2: I suggest you to run a SFC scan and check if it helps.

      Enter.

    Steps:

    • Connect to the internet.

    predictive text - windows 10 mobile

    Why would a User who has encountered the problem of 'Predictive Text' suddenly now missing from their Windows 10 mobile device "Select the Option to turn off the “suggest text”"?

    This strikes me as illogical to resolving the identified problem. I might understand if you instructed the User to restart their device then turn it On to see if toggling the setting might re-enable this service. However, that not being stated suggests an
    oversight/error.

    In my situation, my Lumia 950 XL no longer simply identifies 'correct' words as before. This became noticeable prior to the recent 9 step + 8 step series of Windows 10 Mobile updates.

    I found this predictive text service quite helpful with respect to my 'large' fore-finger tip often unintentionally touching adjacent characters resulting in typing errors ranging from quite simple to utterly deranged 'words' which often are corrected by
    simply touching one of the array of suggested alternate options available.
