Please excuse a Senior (very) citizen whose memory has deserted him. I have four or five Roboform shortcuts (The show the Roboform logo) which, when tapped, launch the default browser, access the...

The reasoning behind the 2004 upgrade was that the technicians, who spent several hours last week connected to my systems trying to determine where the problems lies, are now down to a scattergun...

I would except that it would put me right back in the situation that prompted me to do the upgrade in the first place! I've a mystery communications glitch which prevents my use of Logmein services....

I just performed a forced Win 10 update from a 1909 build to the latest 2004 build. I now no longer have access to my programs list via either the Start sequence or the Windows key! Can anyone...

Either with the latest update, or by inadvertently changing a setting I knew nothing about, I’ve apparently got myself into a situation from which I can’t I can’t extract myself. I’m running...

Cleaner never gave me the "Clean old Windows files" option, so THAT didn't work. Option two, via the elevated command prompt DID clear the "windows.old" directory, but did nothing for the...

I have a few computers, all of which are running various builds of Windows 10 Pro. One of them, running 1709-16299.431, has three old version files; Windows.old, Windows.old.000 and Windows.old.001....

Has anyone seen/found a fix or patch that will allow Office 2003, specifically Excel, to work under the 1803 edition? I've got Office 2007 but really prefer the un-busy GUI of 2003.

Thanks for...

I‘m attempting to upgrade a 1607 Windows 10 Pro system to 1703. (I’ve successfully done four of my six systems.) The upgrade appears to complete successfully, but there are two significant...

Tried ALL of that. I agree that Cortana won't get fixed, or WILL be fixed when the network issue is resolved in the latest build. My next step is to get Microsoft involved in the fix. Just need...

Dalchina,

The post is titled “The specified network name is no longer available” - Windows 10 , and is in THIS forum, sub-group "Network and Sharing".

Basically, I discovered that Cortana was...

Ed,

This gets curiouser and curiouser! The default gateway is 192.168.1.1. I CANNOT connect using that IP and the latest update. I reverted to my previous Win 10 build and can easily connect...

I discovered recently that Cortana had been corrupted on one of my systems. There was no “search” function, or anything else. I tried everything I could find on line to fix it, but no joy.

As a...

Tried that. No joy. Thanks for trying, however.

Ed,

Thanks but that didn't do it.

I have six systems in my home, five running Windows 10 with the Anniversary update and a sixth that just won’t take it yet, and is stuck with the original Win 10.

All of these are somewhat...

If I could remember that, I'd have reversed it instead of asking for help. Sorry about being vague,but i really don't know which tweak cause the problem, nor do I recall what tweaks I did.

I’ve been tweaking a new Windows 10 install ad apparently went “one tweak too far”! I can no longer see “Appearance” in the right-click desktop fly-out menu - only “Display Settings” and...
