Windows 10: Windows 10 v1809 system volume

My HP laptop got the October update on Oct 4. In the previous Windows 10 versions system had separate volume levels for the headphone jack and the speakers, but now both had become one. Did anyone else notice it or is it happening only to me? Wish Microsoft brings it back!

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
