  1. Windows 10 update 1/16/20 - 1/17/20 - messed up my display


    My machine auto updated on 1/16 or 1/17 and now my display is screwed up. Low res, blurred. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the latest driver for my geforce gtx 970. I've uninstalled the windows updates. Nothing is fixing it. What did this update do???

    :)

    WINDOWS 10 11/16/17 UPDATE

    Hi,

    DELL XPS 8610 (?) (CAME W/ WIN 10)

    As time goes on, I like windows 10 less and less.

    11/15/17: update (1/2 hour to get back into windows.

    11/16(17)/17: Option: choose update and shut off.

    This AM 1 hour on black screen with slowly turning dots in a circle.

    Shut off and powered on:

    "trying to recover install"

    25 minutes "working on updates" will restart several times.

    1. Has MS finally destroyed my computer?

    I need PC for income/productivity. (MS might want 2 consider this)

    2. Is this normal?

    3. ANY suggestions?

    4. Is this shades of YOUR future treatment of COMPUTER OWNERS?

  3. 1/16/16 Windows 10 Update Made Unwanted Changes

    1/17/16 Yesterday Microsoft made Windows 10 "updates" to my 4 month old HP 22-3010 All-In-One Computer. The updates are appreciated, but some of the appearance changes are not. I was able to opt-out of the large picture with large date and time, but in
    my pinned favorites they relabeled two things that I cannot get back to the previous labeling:

    a) my personal Facebook page listing used to have the Facebook logo and my name - now it says profile.php

    b) Eminence Weather - Accuweather Forecast now says 334108

    There are probably other things that have been relabeled, but they are not showing up on my Favorites list yet.

    How can I get these back to where they were, and where they say what they are - not meaningless letters & numbers?

    Thank you.

    Windows 10 update 1/16/20 - 1/17/20 - messed up my display

    What will happen on Jan 20, 2016?


    Strollin: I understand your suggestion, but that means I'll have to re-install all my sofftware etc. again. This is not an enticing thought at all.

    LCDR: I tried the old activation code I used before - it is the same on you posted.

    I tried the steps listed at the WinAero site. Last one failed because it said the server could not be located. But I did get the Jan 20, 2016 date back. So that's something.
