Considering that it is photos that I need to sort out, having looked at all of the options I settled on Alldup as the best for this exercise.
It lists the duplicates and also shows previews of them...

I have 2 drives with thousands of files scattered on them over time.

For example, is there any software in which I can select a directory containing...

Last night an update to windows 10 was on schedule for installation overnight.

This morning my laptop was showing the initial screen to set up windows.- but this fails as there is no installation...

From their website Whatsapp say it is for Windows 8 onward, and the Tablet/PC I am considering has Win 10 installed - so that's OK.

Thats what I have on my laptop - I just wanted to check if anyone had installed in in Win10 on a Tablet/PC - just in case there were some quirks which...

I am thinking of buying a Win10 Tablet/PC (similar to the Surface Pro)
I have no experience of these and don't know anyone who has one.
Does anyone know if it is possible to install the Whatsapp...

I use Faststone capture and have never had any problems capturing a screen (full or selected area) until now.

Since the recent Windows 10 update, whenever I try to capture a screen the screen goes...

Using the Windows Fall 'Update Now' option on the page linked to above did the trick.

It took just over an hour to download and install the update - so job done.

Thanks for all the assistance.

So how big is this going to be, WUMT says 195GB - the Windows update says 2.68GB ?????

Thanks.
But I have a problem (which happens frequently when I try to use Windows update for updates) - the update has started to download but has been sitting at 1% for over an hour and there is no...

Ok, so on my fourth attempt Windows update completed the update for 1703.

However it now wants me to update to 1709 (just like WUMT was trying to do) with no indication of the download size. All I...

Now this is the other reason I went for WUMT, or manual dowloads.

I used windows update and it started the download - and then stuck at 99% (where it has been for the last 45 minutes) - so I have...

In fact, I noticed that there was a discrepancy in the versions (mine is 1703) that I had not picked up on and was about to post back when I saw your replies.

OK - resolved the problem.
Microsoft obviously don't know how to write code. :mad:
Unusually my laptop has 3 drives. Even though the main and secondary drives had plenty of space, because the 3rd...

When I said more that 30GB I meant a lot more - this is what I have (copy of Disk Management).
The last two columns are free space in GB and % on each drive.

Trying to upgrade to 1703 is proving impossible.
I have used the built in Windows update to download and install the package twice, and each time it just goes in to a loop of downloading and...

Is there any way to download this large (4GB) file in sections?

Thanks guys - will download it next month (new allowance after the 4th).

The other day I had notification of a new upgrade which had a very large file size (4gb).
