In my Windows 10 WMP, my Start sync link is no longer highlighted when I have my phone connected to my personal computer. I'm trying to download songs from my computer into my phone, which I have done dozens of time, but now the Start sync link won't highlight so that I can click it. So, does...

For most of the last several days, my computer's sound output (using nVidia GeForce GTX 750) has been slowed down by 80 or 90%! How can that possibly happen? Usually a reboot doesn't fix the problem. Even when I run the audio troubleshooter, the sound frequencies remain absurdly low. At one...

Been doing a flurry of Google research trying to get familiar with this OS, before my PC arrives from eBay. So far as I can tell, with Win 7 the word 'uninstall'...

I've always hated Windows Media Player, so after I installed 64-bit Windows 10 Pro (EN-US - NOT N or K), I uninstalled WMP 12 and was happy. But now I'm trying to install a new application called PlayOn Desktop, but it always fails because I don't have WMP installed. I've tried using Optional...

I cannot load my cd's into my computer in windows 10. I tried the groove app with one drive and i can't get anything to work. I used to be able to (in windows xp) to stick the cd's in and windows media player would automatically rip the cd in. Now I can't even do that, my WMP has no rip...

I ditched Windows 10 TP 10049 lasr night for good. It's really beginning to appear to me that Microsoft has lost it's focus, since 2015 got here. The 2 builds of Windows 10 have both had bug's that really shouldn't be there. Mail, Calendar & People haven't worked on either without the end user...
