Thanks dalchini, I'll have a look at those.
Thanks Ken. I didn't try Compatability Mode because the drop-down menu of versions only goes up to 8. As it was working fine on 10 before today's update I didn't think that was worth it. Just old...
Following the latest 10 update today my Samsung laptop has lost 'Fn + Function key' control of brightness, screen switching, and wifi on/off. It still has all the volumes and print screen working....
Guys, thanks to your advice I now have my ethernet device working, I know which is the correct driver, and I have a backup of it just in case. I don't think I need 1607, I'll just see how things go,...
Well I was expecting it to update to 1607 again but it hasn't, and if I manually check for updates it tells me I'm up to date with 1511. Perhaps because I ticked the box saying that 1607 didn't work...
Thanks guys.
Caledon Ken, I didn't know it was that easy to prevent driver updates. I've done that now, so I'll let it update to 1607 and see what happens.
ComputerGeek, I found Original names...
Thanks, I'll have a look at that original filename method when I'm back in work tomorrow. I read the 'temporarily disable' article and I'm not sure about that, as it says to 'delete driver software...
That sounds like the hard drive is failing, and Status=7 is a failure on WD drives. Hope you have a backup. You can run chkdsk to check and possibly fix, but I've always heard that once they are...
Windows Update to Build 1607 (Pro) installs a newer ethernet driver (but with an older version number??) which doesn't work. Driver roll back option in Device Manager is then greyed out. If I unwind...
Tracey, I just got over some permissions problems by following the very simple instructions in Brink's tutorial to add 'Take Ownership' to the Context Menu (which is right click, in case you didn't...
I looked again and found this posted previously by Bastet: "The easiest way I've found is on the old computer to save the WLMail folder under C:\Users\yourcomputername\AppData\Local\Microsoft\ &...
Hi, my old laptop died and I have the HDD in an external caddy. I previously used Live Mail and want to transfer contacts and emails from it to Live Mail on my new laptop. The new laptop has a clean...
OK think I got it. You have to do the 'select principal' step after the taking ownership step. I also found this guide from the other thread which lays it out.
How to take ownership of a folder...
I found the earlier post by Tully -'Can't delete folder', with a similar permissions problem, and followed the steps in the reply by CountMike which included 'select a principal'. This appeared to...
Hi, I have a cloned hard drive of my home PC in a caddy which I'm trying to access (USB) from my work PC. But it's telling me I don't have permission to access files or folders.
Edit- sorted...
Tomybooy, your problem might be due to the Elan touchpad driver which Windows 10 seems to like to download on various machines, my wife's Samsung being one, and caused us a problem as we didn't know...
Vayana, thanks for this. It was driving me mad on the wife's laptop, the pointer would only release slowly from clicking to drag the scroll bar or move windows around. I didn't know Elantech was...
