I have a fresh install of Windows 10 Pro x64. Ever since it was installed my wired ethernet connections has been randomly dropping. I have Broadcom Netlink Gigabit Ethernet under Device Manager...

Mine didn't appear before either.

My point is that when everyone else types is "Device Manager" or "Control Panel," it comes up in search. I want to fix my search.

Well on all previous versions of Windows you could access all installed programs this way.

I rebuilt my index and I can't find anything via the search. Not Device Manager, Control Panel, Steam, or anything.

I ended up doing that. I'm on an Aurora R3 and I had a bunch of issues, but I found solutions. If you are in a similar situation see my last post here:

Solved Windows 10 Installation Freezes -...

I found a solution for Aurora R3 machines. It has to do with BIOS issues.

Aurora R3 + Windows 8.1 = warm boot freeze issue - Alienware Forum - Alienware Club - Dell Community

Basically, after...

USB install froze as well.

I am on an Alienware Aurora R3 with Windows 7 Ultimate x64. I ran the media creation tool to upgrade to Windows 7, and it gets as far as 100% copying data. It then restarts, the dots circle once,...

Every time I check for updates it fails. Also, about 25 minutes ago my $Windows folder that had pre-downloaded Windows 10 went from ~5gb to ~2gb, and the folder inside is called Sources.

I have 4 failures in my update history... why?

Yes I reserved a copy. I'm just deciding whether or not to install it. If I have to reinstall everything, then I'd have to clear a week to do that.

Any idea what time Windows 10 will be available? I just dont want to spend years reinstalling everything...

Hello,

I have my OS installed on an SSD. I have all of my other software (many games) installed on HDDs. Will the software need to be reinstalled when I upgrade to Windows 10?

Thanks.
