Great news.Ok, I'm (finally) back up & running ... correctly.?
Either Nov. 29th/30th, I was looking in the BIOS & realized it was missing the UEFI.
Usually, when I go into the BIOS, the 1st screen shows 3 drive-looking icons; UEFI, my SSD & my Optical Drive.
But the UEFI wasn't shown that time. So I loaded-up the BIOS's Optimized Defaults, rebooted using the Windows 10 USB & reinstalled Windows.
Installation went smoothly, updates went smoothly & I was able to uninstall a few Windows Apps using a combination of Option 9 & Option 13 (Option 10 did nothing for me). There are a few that still will not uninstall, but that's ok for now. So I don't know if the UEFI had anything to do w/my problems, but it's been fixed now.
Brink's Options helped me enough that I didn't need Revo Uninstaller or Geek Uninstaller this time. But I have used Revo Uninstaller in the past w/great success.
