    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

    stuck with Windows media problem

    I am hoping someone can help....

    I have finally figured out the details of a dual boot with Vista and XP pro but, I have a remaining problem with windows media and its ability to play .wma files from the ineternet. It will play the files from the net but the image is barely visible as the picture screen is extremely dark / black. The sound is okay.

    Everything appears to be okay with the Vista boot. The Vista WM will play the same files that the XP media boot won't play. When I first set up after figuring the dual boot, the XP boot would play preloaded songs fine (aka David Byrne)but would not play my cd's or music DVD's. It suggested that I was missing codecs. I figured that problem out by loading roxio / cineplayer. Those are working fine now and sound great.
    I have tried to reload the media 11 package...that didn't help. I even tried to repair load the xp disc specific to wm. Assuming I was close to doing that right, which I doubt, that didn't help either.

    Can anyone tell me what is going on? Can anyone suggest how I might fix it?
    Thanks, chirp
