    Hi, since you were talking about screen rotation I thought to ask something myself if you don't mind....
    I have a DELL Venue Pro 8 and installed Win10. It's working great except for sometimes when I have a program open like windows explorer and then rotate my display from either landscape to portrait or vice versa then the windows keeps the width of portrait mode.
    Very annoying when this happens and I can't reproduce it. I think it mostly happens when I have certain applications open in background.
    Have you heard of this issue?

    I haven't seen that happen on my tablet. About the only problem I have with screen rotation is sometimes on initial startup in landscape, the lock screen will be in portrait until I turn the tablet to portrait and back to landscape, then it will rotate.

    My autorotate disappeared on the W10 update thiIs morning. (Nextbook 10 came with W10 installed).. I've tried the method above, but can't update the Registry, the update provided is for W8.2. I've tried to uninstall the update, won't let me.

    Mine says it is current - no updates available, and still working. Looks like I finally got Insider build 14316 to pop, so going to be upgrading to that today or tomorrow.

    I contacted Nextbook support... they said to reinstall Win 8.1 then upgrade to Win 10. Per their web site, my Model/SN cannot reinstall Win 8.1. They then said that a Windows update screwed it up and I have to live with it until another update comes along and unscrews it. Oh and I've lost the touch screen capability too. My response to (LACK OF) Support was their solution was unacceptable and my TABLET has been rendered unusable. Told them to find another solution. I'm still waiting.

    Mine is working just fine with all latest Windows 10 updates installed. I also have the factory software load of Windows 8.1 saved as a Macrium Reflect image.

    You are correct, though, NextBook support for this tablet is next to non-existent.

    Hello. I am replying to this post because I have the same problem in my Acer tablet - it does not autorotate, and the rotation lock button does not exist. It came with win 10 preinstalled, by I updated it 2 days ago and updated the driver. Nothing worked. I came across the solution you posted previously and downloaded the folder, but that was for windows 8, right? I can't do that in windows 10, I suppose... What should i do?

    Thanks for your help

    Almost all Windows 8 drivers work in Windows 10. You might want to look in Device Manager for the sensor that drives the screen rotation, right click on it, click on Update driver software, then Browse my computer...., then Let me pick from a list.... see if the old driver is still listed there and load it.
