Thanks. I disabled a number of them. Cheers.
I want to improve my security. See pic. Which of these should I turn off?
( I'm using up-to-date Win 10. I don't have any kind of home network or NAS or anything like that. Only using Wifi and a...
:-) The suggestions on this thread caused me to do more searching which led me to the ShortKeys solution. I'm glad to have the issue fixed! :D
Thanks for your reply.
I am pressing them together, even though it doesn't appear on the Kybd Event Viewer screenshot. Both shift keys are working normally with other keys. But for some reason...
Looks like I got it fixed. I installed ShortKeys Lite and created a little kybd macro to enter in the double quote character “. It’s not a true fix, just an easy work-around. Good enough for an old...
Sure, here it is. Pressed left shift key, then right shift key, then left shift + single quote key, then right shift + single quote key. As you can see, when I hold down shift key (5 & 6, then 7 & 8)...

No, no other keyboard layout in my list. I added some and switched kb layouts and switched back to US but that didn't fix any of the kb issues. Now I...
Good idea, I'll try it. Thx. Your suggestion implies that if I change the keyboard layout, it's easy to change it back. Is that true? Can changing and reverting the keyboard layout create problems?
...
Good question. No, I didn't change the layout. In India laptops seem to all come default with standard USA keyboard.
I tried remapping the key combo, but from what I can see remappers (like Sharp...
Windows 10 Home latest version. I have a USA standard keyboard (I purchased the laptop in India in 2015). When my keyboard was working I would press "Shift - single quote" to get the double quote...
Thanks. I tried this but it didn't erase the pending Windows update files. It did erase 3.8gb(!) of old update files. Nice. I like the extra space. Cheers.
I followed these steps and it seems to have done the trick. Thanks for the link! I made some image backups and then moved the files to a backup drive and rebooted my pc no problem. Just to be on the...
OK, thanks! I want to give Microsoft time to fix the buggy updates. After I delete the current update files, how long do you recommend I wait before downloading the newer update files?
I don't...
Cool. Thanks. I'll try this. Does deleting all these files create any problems? Thanks.
I’m on Win 10 Home (HP Pavilion) and a week ago my system downloaded the latest updates. I saw this and set the delay for 2 weeks. So I’ve downloaded the latest updates but delayed their install....
Great. I'll start exploring them. Thanks!
Any way to create virtual folders in Windows 10? I’m running the latest version of Win 10 Home. I want to create and use some virtual folders which will ‘’hold’’ (link) files from various other...
When I made my OP, I was confused about 1903 and 1909. A little while later I found out that 1903 was very buggy and that 1909 would not come out with the Oct 2019 patch Tues. From what I've heard so...
Ahhh... Excellent. Now I understand the situation better and will proceed with your recommendation soon. Thx!

Here's the image of what I see. Nothing I can delete. Any way to fix this?

Followed your instructions and the 2 zombie folders were not there. Any ideas?...
I’m using Windows 10 with 1903. I’m unable to delete some folders aka directories. See the pic below. I tried various command line commands but they didn’t work. Like ‘’

Sounds like ''annoying quirk'' is best descriptor. :-) Hey! Forum admins, you listening? ;-)
Now that I think about it, ''annoying quirk'' sometimes is a good descriptor of the thread...
I have to agree with you on that. This forum has often provided me accurate and timely help. :-) A good community.
@f14tomcat Here the @ sysmbol doesn't do anything as I type it with the user name. Let me see what happens after I post this. On other forums I type the @ symbol and then begin typing the user name...
Hello F14, thanks for the info. That bit of detail makes me more comfortable upgrading to 1909. Now I understand how its quite different from 1903 which had a lot of problems. I'll still wait about...
