So I have various desktops and all have more or less the same issue. In the root of each drive there are randomly named folders generated. Names like:

32601669e81d70e5b9c7c8

I always have 2 browsers open (one for local development work and one for online). Sometimes, all of a sudden, the order of the buttons has changed. They simply switched order. Why?
Please note, this is not about the order of different apps. I know you can just drag and drop those. This is...
I have an issue with one of the displays on my computer. The OS I am using is Windows 10 and I am also using two monitors. The resolutions on them are respectively 1920x1080 and 1280x1024. The taskbar is set to be visible only on the bigger screen. When I lock my computer and leave it for some...
Windows 10 is magnificent.
That said it appears to me as if nr 10 was created solely from an American perspective? With nr 8 I could go to my internet settings and mostly negate any unwanted advertisements. Being online with nr 10 I use an inordinate amount of data, no matter how I tweak my...

Hello guys.
I installed Windows 10 a few weeks ago and generally paid no attention to it as I was busy playing videogames. I checked to see what I could do just yesterday and I am pretty frustrated as when I click on Search the web and Windows, nothing shows us and it's just that the default...

Yeah, so I want to completely start over because my new PC is being laggy and crap. So I selected the 'Reset' option, to completely remove everything. The option like I was 'recycling' rather than keeping the PC. Just wanted to erase everything from the hard drive. Took about 2 hours, as there...

I'm hoping some registry experts here can help. I have lost my Cortana settings. When I click the settings icon (3rd from the top on the left), nothing happens. I may have become a bit overzealous in my attempts to disable Cortana, but now I have lost the options to turn it on and off. How do I...

I upgraded my system to Windows 10 back on Aug 6th and didn't have any problems until yesterday. I won't go into the details of that issue but it forced me to restore Windows 10 from an Acronis TrueImage backup I had taken on the 8/7. Although the restore went well and Windows 10 is back up...

After several days of Windows Update not being successful in installing this cumulative update for Windows 10, today, it no longer shows this update. I think Microsoft fixed this entire issue. Here's what I saw:
