I checked my almost-new SSD more than once with more than one program, so I doubted THAT could be the problem. Once again, it seems Microsoft is letting loose updates that haven't been checked...

I finally decided that I didn't want to invest still more time in trying to repair my Windows installation. So, with a deep sigh, I let the Media Creation Tool prepare a USB-with-Windows, and started...

Well, NavyLCDR, I'm not yet quite ready for that yet, but that may be a question of time :-) . I suspect it's only a matter of a damaged or incorrectly written MBR: all partitions are still there...

Hi NavyLCDR,

thanks for your suggestions!

I've first implemented the registry fix, rebooted, then downloaded the ISO file. The in-place repair now worked as it should. That got my hopes up! I...

Hello Virginia,

I see now that I've missed your post of 7 january on the Microsoft Community Forum. Sorry for that! I've reacted to it on the Community Forum.

Regards, Jaap.

Okay. I'll try it some time this week and come back to you with the results.

Hello NavyLCDR,

I tried out your suggestion. I made a mini-partition on disk 0, formatted...

Hello NavyLCDR,

Thanks for replying. As to your suggestion: what would that tell us if it worked, and what if it didn't?

Regards, Jaap.

Dear reader,

28 December last, I tried installing KB4592438 (2020-12) on my Dell Latitude E6410 laptop with Windows 10 20H2 build 19042.572 64-bit. The PC has an almost new Samsung 860 EVO 2 TB...

Thank you, Pejole2165! I'll look into that.

If there ever comes a day when the command line will no longer be accessible to ordinary users, maybe I'll really say goodbye to Windows. But if, in a case like this, the GUI offers an easier...

This certainly seems to work for me, thanks for posting! However, I was wondering... is this, via the command line, the same as doing

Control Panel > Indexing Options > Advanced > (Delete and...

I see. Probably we'll have to wait for an update to see the problem solved. *Sigh*.

Ah! So I'm not the only one. Sad to hear you have the same problem.

Well. I'll keep an eye out for any new suggestions on the net, see if anything turns up. But thanks for your time and trouble!

The second one has the right feel to it. :-)



I'll try your suggestion. Thanks for the help! :thumbsup:

Sadly, turnning off all tweaks from WinAero didn't help. I...

Hello Bree,

thanks for your reaction! The Dutch, or more specifically, the citizens of Amsterdam, have an expression: "Krijg nóú wat!", meaning, literally, "NOW get something!" It is used to...

I get it. Thanks for being thorough!

Hello Bree, thanks for replying. Restarting doesn't help, and I use no ‘explorer modifiers’ as far as I know. I firtst noticed the...

Well, I AM getting older, but it's not THAT bad yet. :( :-)

Wish I could say the same! But thanks for replying.

Thanks for replying! Yes, I have that option too, but it doen't make any difference whether I select it or not.

Hello all,

I recently upgraded my PC's to 1809, then 1903. I've noticed that File Explorer doesn't show a status bar anymore. All I can find about this topic are old threads about insider builds...

Hi Steve, thanks for replying. I'll definitely keep it in mind. :thumbsup:

Thanks for replying! I guess that's very true. The C: drive is the original Hitachi 80 GB :rolleyes: disk that the machine came with, not a speed monster exactly ;) . The thing is, I consider it a...

Hello everyone,

this will be a rather lengthy post. Please bear with me, as I don't know what information is pertinent to my problem and what isn't.
I have a Dell Latitude E6410 laptop which has...

Mine is a Dell Optiplex 330, originally from work, a primary school in Holland. I think they hail from around 2008. I could take it home when PC's were replaced at school. It started out with Windows...
