I had a similar issue when trying to access files on my Windows 10 PC for my Phone via the SMBv2 protocol. I was able to see the shared folders but they showed up as empty on my phone. From my...

You keep accusing me of stuff without actually proving any proof, evidence or examples. You're talking but you seem to have nothing to say.

I'm not sure what you mean, how do people allow technology to make decisions for them? Are you talking about someone with an iphone saying "hey Siri! Where should I have lunch today?" and then going...

The ones under User Configuration is for if you want the polices to apply only to the current user account, and the ones under Computer Configuration is if you want the polices to apply to all users...

I haven't the slightest idea what you're talking about here! Also, do you seriously think that renaming a folder is going to make the TC understand anything about how Edge works or Windows for that...

Isn't the default owner of the WindowsApps folder and its subfolders, TrustedInstaller? What does batman have to do with it!

But on a more serious note, taking ownership of files and folders is a...

Like I said before, my method works for me and Edge never runs at all, personally I don't see why anyone would want to go scorch earth on a deeply integrated system component simply because they...

The method I outlined here works for me, after configurating those policies Microsoft Edge doesn't run for me in the background at all. The problem is not the browser itself defying anything but...

If you're running an edition of Windows 10 that allows you to set local group policies (such as Pro, Education or Enterprise) you can prevent Microsoft Edge from running at startup by configurating...

I just outright deleted the folder, no noticeable side-effects thus far.

So at my place of work, some of the PCs still uses Windows XP and sometimes to pass the time I play some of the card games that comes with Windows. But can someone explain to me why Microsoft Hearts...

You don't need to create any new accounts but it does require a third-party tool called PowerRun, which is small, portable (doesn't need to be installed) and very easy to setup and use. Just add an...

I don't get why anyone would want to cripple the security of their own system but from what I'm reading, wouldn't it make more since if you started looking into ways of running as the system user...

CarlSD Next time I do a clean Install I'll try the offline initial setup and see what happens thanks.




You're missing the point, the end-user should've have to uninstall this bundled stuff...

What you've described sounds more like a workaround than a choice.




I've tried this many times and as soon as I connect my PC to the internet it revert any start menu settings/layout and...

I must admit, it would be nice if a version of Windows 10 as clean as Enterprise LTSC Edition was available for private home users, I honestly wouldn't care if I had to pay a bit more that a regular...

I feel like this wouldn't really be an issue if Microsoft wasn't going through an identity crisis when it comes to design consistency.

That was already easy to do by simply using the expand button at the top of the start menu on the left though.

That image looks photo-shopped if I'm being completely honest.

Pop ups, pop down, event listeners for mouse down/up/scroll, redirects, back button hi-jacking, spamming notifications and alerts, auto-playing video/audio ads, flashing ads, floating ads, so much...

From my own personal experience I've never really had any issues with ABP, choose the right filters and it works just as well as uBlock Origins IMO.

And at least having a built-in ad blocker will...

Microsoft Edge on android has AdBlock Plus built-in to the browser, here's hoping that this will be the case to for Edge on desktop.

When I clean installed 1909 (Client Consumer) two days ago the "create offline account" or "Domain Join Instead" options were not present at all. I had to resort to the old tactic of physically...

I seriously doubt that they'll ever go that.

I just always assumed that they were there for backwards compatibility reasons, maybe some older software were hard-coded to look for those older folders and the junction links points them to the new...
