    Windows Update App no longer available?


    I no longer have a Windows update app to check for updates as I typically do. When I type in 'Windows Update' in the Search the web and Windows, the App always popped up for me to select it to check updates. It is no longer there? Using Windows 10 Pro 64bit, desktop, fresh install I did about a month ago.

    :)

    Windows 10 Photo app no longer works

    The Windows 10 Photo app no longer works on my PC and I have tried following a range of advice given but to no effect. It's been suggested that the simplest way is to uninstall Windows 10 and then reinstall it. Can someone please explain how best to do that
    and without losing any of my Files such as Word, Excel etc.? I've also been advised that I can't you use the simple uninstall software option but there is a Command line that can be used and that's the simplest way. How do I find that please if that is the
    way to do it.

    Original title; Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for the update.

    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to perform SFC scan and check if it helps.

    System File Checker (SFC) is a utility in Microsoft Windows that allows users to scan for and restore corruptions in Windows system files. Perform System File Check (SFC),
    and then check if this fixes the issue.

    Press the Windows button + X
    on your keyboard, a mini dialogue box will appear.

    2. Choose Command Prompt (Admin). You must run the command prompt in Administrator level.

    3. On the command prompt type sfc /scannow
    and hit enter.

    4. If everything went okay and no errors were found, restart your computer and see if the issue re-occurs.

    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.

    Right, it is no longer there.

    You now find that functionality in the Settings app > Update and Security > Windows Update. *Smile

You made my day, sure enough, that is where it is now,,, many thanks Joergi ,

  9. See, I'm sorry but if that had been me, and I had put all of that effort in, only to find out what Brink told you, I'd be having a Coronary right now. But that's just me. I am glad you're happy.
