    For the second time I have had a Windows Update that failed?

    When I logged in a few minutes ago it tried without asking, and failed again. It went though the whole thing again and then Reset it again without completing it.

    25H2 (OS Build 26200.7628) ChRome Doesn't do the R thing in Incognito mode! Any R appeas only when typed as a Capital. It appeas as a nothing no space if it's typed as a lowecase. And my spell checke won't fix it.

    This update failed. 2026-02 Security Update (KB5077181) (26200.7840) But at least it's not attempting to make me install it now. It did install the update that came in since that one. It's tough to type without using the aRRR! This is only in the 4um. same as it did last time. PS. If I...

    For the second time I have had a Windows Update that failed?

    I think it may have gotten fixed. I tried to Run ... "DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth<br>sfc /scannow" But it wouldn't complete. It stalled at 63.3 % every time. Now my capital R issue is back again. But I went ahead and typed the code. net stop wuauserv<br>net stop bits<br>net...

    For the second time I have had a Windows Update that failed?

    I got another notice of a new update and told it to go ahead, but after going through the process, it said something didn't go right. Don't worry, we are undoing the update. Then it went through the installation process, gave me the same message, and finally loaded Windows. I don't recall...

    OK, I give up, how do I set my own desktop theme now?

    OK, I've figured out a few things. I can't move the folders to themes but I can move all the images into themes individually, once the are in "C:\ Windows\images", they can be selected for the Desktop images, and then made into a theme. So I emptied all the .jpgs into "images" and then selected...

    I know the location of my themes, they are on my F drive in my "My Themes" folder. I have a bunch of them, Everything from all the Cars I've Owned to my cats and dogs. All in the correct size to fit my 34" UHD monitored I love how Windows never stops trying to make thing almost impossible to...

    OK, I give up, how do I set my own desktop theme now?

    After the last update my custom theme changed to a default theme and I can't find a way to change it back to one of my own! I get into Personalize and can't find anyway to search for a folder on my hard drives. I can get themes from the net, but I can't find a search box that lets me search on...

    I found the reason my C:\ drive doesn't have enough space.

    All done, what an improvement, I finally an back up to over 40 Gigs of space available and I don't have to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop and Premiere. I also found that it I click on the words with the missing R it spell checks and fixes it.

    I found the reason my C:\ drive doesn't have enough space.

    There is a Windows.old file on my C:\ drive taking up 41 gigabytes of space. I assume that it's safe to remove this, as I remember it creates this when it reinstalls Windows and it's safe to remove it when everything is up and working. It's the reason that all my free space disappeared when it...

    Can anyone tell me what makes my computer login to a page other than my Desktop?

    After hours of working I finally got over 20 gigs of space freed up on my C:\drive. After deleting or moving many small files that I knew I didn't need I found a folder in my Users Public folder that was 30 GB. It was placed there by one of my graphics programs. So I deleted it and now had...
