The IP address that you show is the one that I use but in case it has become corrupted I keyed it in again into add a Network Location and the following message appeared:-

I've done what you suggest and got the result "True" but I still cannot access the usb stick. I've run a network troubleshooter and got the following result:-

I am just an ordinary Windows user and am not familiar with some of the terms you are using. How do I get an elevated version of Powershell as a reboot does not appear to be sufficient to re-enable...
I looked in Windows Features but could only find SMB 1 no SMB 2. I tried installing this (having created a Restore Point first) which was completed without incident but It is still not allowing The...
I have a usb stick which is permanently plugged in to my router (a BT Smart Hub) so that it can be used as a network storage device. Recently when trying to open the drive it has been impossible to...
Hi All,
I am very gratefull for all your suggestions but amazingly the speakers have started working again. Maybe there is some internal connection that is weak and sometimes works and sometimes...
Hi,
This computer was upgraded to W10 many years ago probably within a year of W10 becoming available. It is now running W10 version 22H2 which I believe is the final version. I only use this...
Hi Dalchina,
Yes I would say that my keyboard is more or less identical to the one you show and yes I have tried FnF8 again several times and FnF9 in case the unmute symbol was missing from it....
Hi Guru,
I've tried this now but no joy. It seems very strange that there is a function key to switch off the speakers but none to switch them back on.
I have an old eMachines laptop (was originally on Windows 7 but has been upgraged to Windows 10) I pressed the function key and F8 whcich disabled the internal speakers. Surprisingly there does not...
Thanks for your replies. I have now found the relevant section in Settings and fixed the problem. I don't know how I didn't find it myself, anyway all is ok now.
I have a program, Ashampoo Burning Studio 22 which is very good but recently has been opening up everytime I connect an external drive thinking that I want to do a backup. I can quite easilly cancel...
Hi Dalchina, So far so good, restarting my pc seems to have been effective although yesterday the saving process froze. It's working ok again totay however. So restarting the pc or sometimes removing...
Hi Dalchina, I found that the next time I started my pc that again I was blocked from saving to the pen drive, however I have now done a restart (I know this can have a different effect from just...
Hi Dalchina, I tried saving a new file to the pen drive but I got the same result - I needed to get pemission. Where would I find my network permissions - somewhere in settings? Yes there was an...

Thanks again Dalchina. Yes a back up now will be a good idea.
Thanks for these additional ways to upgrade but my laptop is now working satisfactorily on W10 version 22H2 with all my apps and files so everything iss now ok
Thanks Dalchina, I should have known to do that and what MCT stood for. I tried it before and it resulted in the screenshot I posted earlier which demanded entry of a Username and Password that I had...
Thanks Megahertz, but what is MCt? I've Googled it and it has come up with an oil or a Microsoft trainer neither of which appears to have anything to do with upgrading the operating system
Hi Megahertz,
Thanks for your reply. I've been away for a few days hence the delay in getting back to you. I discovered that I had made a recovery pen drive shortly after purchasing the laptop in...
Hi Dalchina,
I'm afraid you have lost me with some of these suggestions as my knowledge of computers is not advanced enough. Perhaps a clean install would work I've nothing to lose by trying this,...
My W10 laptop (HP Pavilion was running W10 20H2 and I attempted to upgrade it to W10 22H2 using the Windows Upgrade Assistant. Eventually I got a message which basically told me that the only way...
