  1. windows update won't save personal settings


    I was asked to install a windows update. Now windows will not remember any of my personal settings. Every time I start up the computer, the settings go back to default. The back ground goes back to the windows graphic. The taskbar does not retain the icons I pinned to it but returns them to the ones Microsoft installed. My default browser goes back to Edge. All my Chrome sign in information has to be reentered. Personal files are returned to where Windows thinks they belong and not where I place them. How do I make Windows remember my personal settings?



    Thanks,

    PC

    :)

    I had the same problem when i repaired my O/S, i forgot the steps on how to fixed it, but it is in the microsoft support forum.

    You have to reinstall the windows updater, then restart the updating service.
