I don't know what it says, but when I click it it takes me to the page with all the Surface models

Mine says Home Apps Games Dispositius Film & TV
Clicking Dispositius takes me to the page showing all the Surface laptops etc.

Why do they make this so panful? I went to do a clean install of Education on my spare desktop PC. It will not accept my Microsoft ID, it wants your Business or School account info, your Office365 email address subscription info etc. So I go to do a local account. Now I have to answer 3 security questions, wtf? Starts over from scratch to install another edition.

Is it just me or do all apps now have a horrible wide border?

Attachment 206753

A reboot fixed it.



Or did it. I think it might have been Clover that caused the problem.

Fixed this by goin got settings->language. There was a red text saying the ordering of languages wasn't good. Clicked it, it shuffled them around and now it's fixed.

Shuffling mine also fixed it. I had English Canada and English US. Moved English US to top and it now says Devices. I guess Dispositius is French for Devices?

Hi,
Yep more hoops to jump through lol
Never really happy with password must try a pin number too then one can forget two steps
Three secrete questions is one I wasn't all that happy with but different question same silly answer to them all is all I do which is unrelated to any of the questions

Any other time I'd just use my Microsoft ID account info, Education Edition won't let you do that for initial setup, which IMHO is pretty lame. Once I log in with the local I can switch to a Microsoft Account with no issues.
I should have just answered the questions but I'm in a bit of a foul mode today. My chronic pain has spiked a bit high today and made me a bit cranky.

Don't think so. That would be "appareil" or similar. I had English (Belgium) as first, so that's probably the issue aa well

It's fixed anyway, thanks for posting what worked for you.

@alphanumeric, it asks you to set up the three security questions in order to help you get in if you forget your password. I'm not sure when this was introduced, but a clean install of 1803 will do exactly the same thing.

The way to avoid it is to not have a password to forget in the first place. Set a blank password when asked to set up the first local account, then if you want a password set it after logging in for the first time.
