All working now. Thanks to everyone who helped.

This seems to follow, as I couldn't get any permission to work. However, several threads from several forums suggests deleting it would not do any harm - implying that it was possible, perhaps even...

Thank you. All this seemed to work perfectly.

Updating winre.wim seemed to go fine. (I did try to rename the two files with .OLD, but the system wouldn't allow me to do it. So I just went a...

I appologise. I must seem incredibly naive. Is the MCT downloaded from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 and clicking on the 'Download Now' button? Or is there...

Pentagon: You're heading well into unknown territory for me, which makes me very nervous. I did try the reboot, found the menu including 'Troubleshooting' / ' Advanced' / 'Command Prompt', but it...

My appologies. The 'Allocated' space is only 32GB. I was looking at the file size.

2.4GB is the total size of $WinRE (2.1GB allocated) by WinTree.

the 34,000 items are in the "C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local" folder.

Can you confirm 'ESD' can be...

It doesn't look like KB5034441 successfully installed.

dalchina: Thanks for the advice.

I use WizTree - although not usually with the 'cushion map'. Found this very usful in the past. However, it only shows me how much room this folder is taking...

Horsepilot: Thanks. I'll try that.

dalchina: "However, your problem with WU may have nothing to do with that."

Yes. That thought had occured to me. But this, if I remember correctly,...

Apparently, when a problem occurs with updating Windows 10, one of the options (although, perhaps, not the first one to try) is to delete the $WinREAgent folder to reset the updating. (I'm sure I...

Thank you for this. Unfortunately, for those areas that are relevant I've tried and not succeeded. Thanks anyway.

Hi,

Not strictly MS office.

I'm having trouble accessing my MS account. I rarely use it, and do not use it to log in to my computer. I've had a couple of emails suggesting that there has been...

Thanks. No Problem. Good of you to try.

Thanks for your advice.

It's actually the physical risk rather than the financial that I'm concerned with.

Has anyone used or know about battery.uk.com ? They seem to have what I want (which...

Hi,

Not strictly a Win10 question. I'm in the UK and was wondering whether anyone has any suggestions as to a reputable replacement battery outlet. I'm always wary about purchasing electrical...

mngerhold, as, like you, I'm a little confused, so I don't really understand it. The string I showed was copied from the target field in the properties box.

However, I think I may be onto...

The method I used was from the How to Pin a website shortcut to Start Menu in Windows 10 page under the heading Pin a website shortcut to Windows 10 Start Menu using Chrome. I followed the...

If I understand you correctly, my initial try (at work) was with a completely different page. (It was actually a link to a google docs page.) I was only using DDG as a test. I've also tried the...

It opens the DDG home page.

Hi. The article just explains how to do it, but the s/c I have has this as the target:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome_proxy.exe" --profile-directory=Default...

Wow, that's a lot of posts. Thanks for all your advice.

1. The main reason for all this is to put two links to the web browser (one for the browser and one for the specific page on the browser)...

On this testing version I did, but I tried originally to do this at work and created a s/c from scratch. I just tried it that way, putting it on the desktop and got the same result. I entered the...

Thanks,

The original shortcut is named 'Google Chrome' and the new shortcut (in this case) is called 'Test Shortcut'. The original appears in the menu, but the new one doesn't.
