Thanks I'll give your suggestions a try.

Thanks very much for your reply. That section of the Gmail settings is exactly where I went to insure that IMAP was enabled and it was.
Again, for my sister's PC using the standard Win 10 email...
Hi ALL,
I was working on my sister's PC last week installing a new printer and had to start her e-mail program (standard Win 10 e-mail program) and it asked for the e-mail address and password...
Hi ALL,
I just got updated to 21H1 and all is ok except i now find that when starting MS Edge instead of going to the page I've specified (news.google.com) it starts up at the MS Start page. If I...
Good suggestion but no joy!! I even did it twice and the second time I re-booted after the uninstall and also re-booted after the re-install. Both times Win said it was updating but both times...
Hi Cliff,
Yes, I had already found that entry but when I click on it the only option that's there is to Uninstall it. If I click that I'm sure it will uninstall but how do I re-install it?

Hi ALL,
I just got the latest major update to Win 10 Ver 1803 and when it was done everything seemed to be working well but then I discovered a problem with IE 11. Yes, I know MS is pushing Edge...
Hi, I'm aware that there are programs that can save a disk image and then be used to restore that image onto a clean disk. Unfortunately I had not been using any and will look into using one in the...
Hi ALL,
What is a "Windows Message Nudge?"
Why am I asking? Due to a failed boot drive I had to do a clean install of Win 10 on a new clean boot drive. It actually went relatively smoothly...
Hi Brink,
Thanks for the suggestion as I am already using the notification area icon to bring up the queue. I also saw the other thread about making a shortcut for the queue and may give that ...
Just bought a new HP Laser Jet printer (M277dw) and its working really great. But it doesn't automatically show any kind of print queue. Is there any way to set up Win 10 to have the printer queue...
Thank for the suggestions but since I've seen this happen before as have others, and since the new Creator's version of Win 10 seems to be working without any problems, I'm going to leave it all...
I know!!! That's the point that on the 21st I shut down the PC and there was no notification of any kind that there were ANY updates pending. It went to the blue shutdown screen and then to the...
Here's my update history and the long no-notification update occurred on 7/21. I have an SSD as my main boot drive and where Win 10 sits so my system is rather speedy.
Hi ALL,
I've complained about this before yet MS persists in having Win 10 do very long updates with no notification and no progress indicator. I just got upgraded to the Creator Edition and it...
Yes, it does.
Yes it could!
Thanks all!

Hi Bree,
Thanks so much for the detailed explanation! I figured it was how you explained but wasn't sure. However, MS doesn't even follow their own guidelines. When I go to System Info and...
What is the real version number for Win 10 Creator? Is it 15063 or 1703? I know I got the Creator update because it said so after the update ran which took an hour. But my sister's PC I may have...
Hi ALL,
I started this thread and I too thought the problem was gone. But its not!!! I have a small Dell Zino PC that I have set up as a HTPC with a TV tuner so I can record over-the-air...
Thanks for asking but soon after I started this thread the problem seemed to go away and I've been able to boot into the PC several times since then without any problem. I'm not sure what I did, if...
Hi John,
Its nice to know that other are getting the same results as I am! I do think Win 10 has some nice improvements but on the other hand the update procedures are a disaster. I don't mind...
Hi ALL,
I started this thread and I appreciate all the input - it's been a lively discussion! But while I am still glad I upgraded to Win 10 I frankly am fed up with how the updates work. ...
What about Alt-F4. I don't have any pending updates so when I use it and there are no other windows open a dialog box comes up with a few selections including Shutdown and Restart. Is it possible...
Nope! As far as I know she has Win 10 Home same as me. The next time I go there I'll double check and get the exact version and release she has and compare it to mine, but again I'm 99 44/100 %...
Hi ALL,
My main desktop PC updated to Win 10 Ann Ed without any problem as did my sister's desktop. I was over to my sister's house the other day and doing something on her PC when I went to shut...
