Hi guys,

Yesterday I installed Windows 10 Pro and after sometime I noticed that when I right-click on the taskbar I don't have "Properties" option which normally should be.

Could you please help me to sort it out.

Thank you.

Properties was replaced with Settings in the AU build. You can confirm you have this build by pressing [windows key +r],type winver if you see Version 1607 then you have the AU build.
