  1. Windows 10 Settings and Search Functions Not Working After Recent Windows Updates


    Windows 10 Home, 21H1, 4/24/2021, 19043.1023, WFEP 120.2212.2020.0A couple of days ago, I attempted to use the "Search" function in Windows File Explorer and found it not working properly. As soon as I mouse click in the search window, the cursor appears for a split second and immediately tabs out of it to the first selection history dropdown, making it almost impossible for me to type in a new search query. The most I can get in the search box is one letter before the cursor leaps away. The only workaround I have found is to type my search query in Notepad, copy it, click in the Explorer Sear

  2. Windows 10 download speed issues

    Try this method:
    • First of all from Start Menu, open Settings (Type settings in the search bar and it will appear).
    • locate and select “Update and Security“.
    • in this window, Locate “Advanced Options”. Click on it.
    • In Advanced Options; Click on “Choose How Updates are Delivered“.
    • Turn off Updates from more than one place.
    Your system will not work as a seeder for other Windows 10 users. It will give sudden boast to your Slow internet speed.

    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
