windows 10

So, my civil partner has a new part-time temp job, where she's using a Dell Ultrabook laptop running Windows 10. Yesterday (the third day on the job), starting the system looked completely normal (which also includes the keyboard lights switching on). However, the keyboard was completely...

Windows 11 announced I thought that they said W10 would be the last operating system. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/24/microsoft-windows-11-event-live-updates.html

After discovering I had a flat battery in my laptop and hand-writing a few pages of my short story, I attempted to use Windows 10's speech recognition as a quick way to enter the work I had done. Below is the result, I think I might have to do a little more work with it. Does anyone else have...

I need to upgrade my computer to Windows 10, due to alot of problems that started after a check-up 2 months ago. The main reason why I haven't done this yet, is because I own 4 games that are not compatible for Win 10: Divine Divinity, Nox, Warhammer 10000: Final Liberation & Arcanum: Of...

On my Windows 10 computer, the login screen (which first appears when you turn it on) has changed pictures. It used to be some night time aqua greenish picture, but now is some mountain range thing. I didn't change this myself, ever. Did anyone else have this change in the past few days...

Some of you may remember a thread from a while ago in which my computer was slowly dying. Well, now I've got a new one and, it being a new one, it's installed with Windows 10. So far I like it (with Classic Shell installed), although I've had a few niggles here and there and it's difficult to...

I rolled my main PC back to 7 and all is good.. I have another PC that was upgraded to 10 that I just use for Folding@Home.. ( See sig .. ) I noticed my Folding points were dropping so I checked in on the 10 machine.. Wi-Fi ( I have a wireless LAN ) had been turned off ( why? ) .. I also...

For the past month or so, often videos that I play have black squares and large black areas. This lasts a number of seconds, then suddenly the video is clear. I think this is due to mpeg-style compression not sending an initial full frame, where subsequent frames are all diffs off the previous...

That automatic update function you can't opt out of on Win 10 Home finally bit me. The latest update hosed my file and database 'server' on my home network. Now it locks up and makes a KLAXON howl whenever I turn it on. I've got back-ups of my files that are a couple of days old, but I've...

For quite a while the reminders were just statements of fact, with an invitation to upgrade. Then they became more frequent and gradually more persistent. Last week it was "Upgrade now/later tonight/choose time", but dismissing the dialogue box stopped anything happening. Last night it became...

So my Start button on Windows 10 no longer works, right-clicking pinned applications doesn't work, and Cortana is unavailable. Not that I've ever spoken with her. Gotta CTL+ALT+DELETE to shut it down.

I can't believe I'm the only person this has happened to, but the support people at Bitdefender are acting like this is unique and only I have ever encountered it. I have a brand new computer. I know, because I put it together. It got a brand new install of its first and only o/s, Windows 10...

Please give us your opinion on this. Somebody will think of options I've missed. Some of those will be sane ... ish.

Have read several articles......none gave any compelling reason (or much of any really) to "upgrade." Anyone?

I just "reserved" a copy for a free upgrade (from Windows 7). Did I just make a huge mistake?
