I have not been able to load my cd's onto windows media player in windows 10. There is no "rip" feature. I also tried downloading music from me smartphone, and that does not work either. It seems like I have to buy an app in order to load cd's that I've already paid for. If this is true...

I tend to use "app" to refer to the metro apps and "program" to refer to things like excel or Word. But in W10 menus, "app" seems to refer to both which I find confusing. Why the blurring of the distinction? Thanks.

Has anyone else experienced this? I was unable to update from Windows 8.1 Pro to Windows 10 Pro via Windows update as the download/ install kept failing. I then downloaded the 64-bit Win 10 installer from the MS website and ran it. Everything went fine until I was presented with three options...

I'm running a non-touch laptop and have no use for MetroUI apps whatsoever. How would one go about globally uninstalling ALL of the Metro apps in Windows 10 so that they're gone forever?

I am sorry if I have previously used the wrong place to put my question. Most times after I have had the computer switched on and after 30 minutes approx. I click on a app and it just "hangs" with the blue circle going around and around and after a couple of minutes stops. You can click on the...

Hello, Windows Forum! Having a bit of an issue with 10 that maybe somebody else has solved. I opened my start menu and started removing the pre-installed apps to personalize it, like I'd done with 8, and came across the Cortana button. I clicked it out of curiosity and after a while it...

Why does Microsoft always make their Apps a little harder to use and a little less useful? At least it always seems that way to me. I was just setting up edge to give it a try, and it's always just a little harder to do things than in Chrome. Like adding your links to the Favorites Bar, in...
