Oh dear. The new header in settings has just turned itself on. What a waste of space. Is there any way to change what is displayed there or to turn it off?

What do you have there ? I have Your Phone (useless) and Windows Update (good). Wish it was adjustable and can ad things to it.

And start earning rewards. Even the Updates link doesn't save any clicks.

One of the "inbox apps" was updated last night in the Fast ring, the Calculator, it turns out that this app had a bug that few people had noticed until a month ago when it became "famous" for some tweets, when the window is resized there is a misalignment:

Misalignment in the Calculator.

This bug was fixed last night in the Fast ring version of the app.

You may be able to disable the entire Header via the Mach2 Tool...

Hi folks

Language problem still not fixed - application hangs -- system though doesn't lock but to get rid of hanging application you need re-boot as taskmanger doesn't kill it.

(2nd or extra languages installed --> advanced-->copy settings to welcome screen etc).

BTW what's about those dark themes that people seem to like -- YMMV but I find looking at those types of screens so depressing - also if blue lettering / text appears anywhere on those black backgrounds - even with decent monitor and graphics it's utterly illegible.

Cheers

Dark themes are easier on the eyes.

Hi there

depends on whose eyes - also how do you manage with Blue text on dark black background -- however I did say YMMV with these things.
