    Windows 10 Start Menu & Action Center

    I think I figured out what was causing this problem, something call "Windows Shell Experience Host". I simply open Task Manager scroll down to find it under Background processes, highlight it and click End task. Although, doing this does let me open the Start Menu & Action Center I do have to do...

    Windows 10 Settings won't open on first try

    When I click on All Settings or right-click on the home screen and choose Personalize the screen pops open, but it's a blank screen, I would have to close that screen and re-open it a second time in order to see the actual All settings or Personalize menu screen. Any ideas as why?

    Windows 10 Start Menu & Action Center

    Yes, it does say Activated, but I'm beginning to think it was a mistake to upgrade. Any ideas on how to roll back to Windows 10 Home edition that originally came with the computer?

    Windows 10 Start Menu & Action Center

    I have a brand new Asus ROG Strix GD30 gaming desktop (2 weeks old) that came with Windows 10 Home edition, but I upgraded to Windows 10 Pro version 1703 (OS Build 15063.332). I did scan for viruses/malware, no problems there. The computer is still pretty much stock, the only major thing I did...

    Windows 10 Start Menu & Action Center

    I gave up and did a complete reset which turn out to be good idea because it corrected other issues I had also.

    Windows 10 Start Menu & Action Center

    I have set the display to turn off after 5 minutes if there's no activity on my computer, but when I come back to use my computer after a while I noticed that the start menu and action center doesn't open when I click on them. Any ideas why?

    Windows 10 Recycle Bin

    The problem I described in my original post was not because I wanted to delete an item immediately, but that the recycle bin icon doesn't change from empty to full once I delete an item and when I open/close the recycle bin only then does the icon show that it's full with deleted items. I never...

    Here's my problem, when I delete anything it goes into the recycle bin and the icon changes from "empty" to "full", and I would simply right click on the recycle bin icon and select "empty recycle bin" but since a few days ago whenever I delete something it goes into the recycle bin, but the...

    Weird, I don't live anywhere near Denver,Co. I guess it's a Microsoft thing and not a specific location situation.
