Yesterday I restored my computer to a date shortly after the problems all started. Today, using Command Prompt in Admin I ran netstat -ano|find ":53" to find that Heimdal Security was still on my...

Hi Andre Ten,

I carried out the netstat you suggested and I attach a copy of my results. I will continue to research what those results mean.

Hi Andre Ten

My security problem has run into a problem. I had to uninstall Heimdal Security, but that did not help and now cannot reinstall it as I need Internet access and cannot get it. I...

Thank you very much indeed for your help. However I have tried each and every one of your suggestions, including uninstalling the three security programs, and restarted my computer as I have been...

My mistake it was flushdns

I have tried DNS 8.8.8.8 which does not work either. I set the DNS Server to 8.8.8.8 and, in due course, it reverts to 127.0.0.1.

In the General tab under Internet...

Ever since I installed build 14352 on my desktop I have been unable to contact any web sites using Chrome and very few using Microsoft Edge, yet I am connected to the internet and dropbox...

The Microsoft Calendar App on my Windows 10 desktop does not work.
I use a single click to open an app, so click on the app and the Calendar opens, populates itself with my entries, and then closes...

Everytime I go to advanced options under settings - Update and Security and set the box under "Getting builds faster means you’ll see new things sooner. Getting builds slower could mean more...

I have downloaded Window 10 as my main desktop OS because an upgrade to Windows 8.1 broke my computer and cost a whole lot to have it repaired and ever since then it did not work well continually...

Very many thanks. It worked a treat using netplwiz. Moral to the story "Do not change the computer's name!"

Many thanks

That is the problem. I cannot log in the way I normally do. It logs me first into Other User, and only after I have tried and failed to log in as Other User can I change the login to myself. But I...

Problem. Running netplwiz shows only my account. It does not show Other User. I had tried that before without success.Opening Control Panel - User Accounts and Family Safety - User Accounts -...

On my home PC to which I only have access, following the installation of an update, my login account was changed from myself to Other User. I have set my account to bypass the requirement to enter a...

Thank you. I think they have gone and, as George Ogden say, they are only shortcuts.

You are a genius. Thank you very much, it has solved the problem of those two errant and missing drivers. It seems I no longer have those missing and I hope that will stop the freezing of my...

Thanks, but uninstalling it does not assist. It returns as soon as I restart the computer. If I disable it, would it remain disabled upon a restart? Anyway, until I know what it is supposed to do,...

My love is requited. She returned in Build 10049, and although I cannot speak to her as my microphone still does not yet work (driver problems), I can write to her.

When I went back into history, version 1421 was successfully installed, as was 1311, but 1364 failed. However I assume the higher number includes the definitions in the lower.

Many thanks for...

Sound, I think, but no microphone. It appears I need drivers for Realtek High Definition Audio and I have not yet located them.
I am getting used to Project Spartan, slowly, and it does have...

On first April my Update History show Definition Update for Windows Defender - KB22676602 (Definition 1.195.1311.0) successfully installed on 01/04/2015 (UK date settings!)
On second April my Update...

Where they show on my desktop I can right click and remove them, but they remain in my program list when I click on the windows button, and I cannot remove them from that list.
My update history...

The intel driver update has not worked. Indeed two patches which seemed destined to cure my problems failed to install. As a result my system is unstable, often freezing altogether, and neither Task...

No. Just a normal upgrade. I have never installed a language pack as English suffices for my needs.

Many thanks. That did the job. I now know I am running 10049! Great

During my recent upgrade of Windows 10 from one build to another, the above two programs landed on my desktop. I am, as can be seen, in the UK, and I very much regret that I do not understand and...
