Windows 10: Windows 10 kept deleting my third party screensaver

Hi everyone. Has anyone here experienced the same problem? I'm having issues with my third party screensaver. It was working properly before the update, but I'm not sure if it's the one causing it. So I tried re-installing it and was successful in testing the app on the screensaver settings, but after the supposed set up, it stops working. I went back to check it in the screen saver settings again and to my surprise, it was not there. The exact third-party screensaver went missing from the drop-down options.Steps I tried:Cleaning my windowsRestarting my computerReinstalling

I would suggest you to try the following steps and check if that helps.

• Go to the folder C:\Windows\System32 and sort by file type.
• Look for the screensaver file type (.scr).
• Find the file scrnsave.scr(you can choose any of the screensavers).
• Right click and select send to>desktop (create shortcut). The shortcut on my attachment, but when i click on it my screen goes off and on and nothing else.

 

Deleting contacts from Windows 10


When you say Windows Mail Live are you referring to Mail app or Windows Live Mail?

I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.

• Open Windows Live Mail.
• Press Ctrl + 3 using your keyboard. Right-click on the contact to delete it if it is a single contact.
• Highlight all contacts by pressing Ctrl + A.
• Click Delete located on the Ribbon bar.
• Click OK when you see the message These contacts will also be deleted from Hotmail, Messenger, and other Windows Live services.

After following the steps above, all your contacts that you have manually added to your account will be deleted however, contacts coming from third-party sites such as Facebook will not be deleted unless you remove Facebook from your account.

For Mail app:

Open People app then delete the contact.
