    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

    windows 10 starts in desktop mode

    Windows 10 Onscreen keyboard is on HotKey mode when 2-in-1 is in tablet mode.

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    • Since when are you facing this issue?
    • When you say that everything is fine with real keyboard in desktop mode, do you refer to the physical keyboard?
    • Does the onscreen keyboard work properly in desktop mode?


    Please get back to us with the information requested above, so that we can suggest the appropriate troubleshooting steps.



    Meanwhile, I would suggest to create a new user account and see if the onscreen keyboard works properly in both desktop and tablet mode. Please refer to the article below.

    Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10




    We look forward for your reply.
