  1. Windows 10 - Settings opens at random constantly


    Had my new PC for a few months now and Settings opens constantly at random intervals without any interaction on my part the whole time my PC is switched on. It's growing rather irritating and I'd very much like a solution if one exists!

    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
