Recurring issues in Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
System info: Intel motherboard DH67CL with Intel i5-2400 quad core processor. 8 Gb RAM. Self built in Cooler Master tower.
These issues keep recurring regularly.
Bootup: Frequently takes just over 2 full minutes to boot. Work around is to restart using restart button on tower, after Intel info screen appears, which reduces time by 90 seconds. Very annoying.
Shutdown: Frequently turns off monitor display, but PC keeps running indefinitely. Need to perform hard turn off, or turn off mains power. Ditto very annoying.
Safe removal of USB devices: Frequently, using either drop down menu from USB device shortcut, and choosing eject option. Or safe removal on Notification area. Error message comes up: "Device is currently in use. Files could be damaged. Cancel. Try again. Continue." By clicking Try again, it shuts down and have never had any file damage. But what's annoying is the USB device was not open, but closed.
Drag/drop folders/open files: Almost always the mouse pointer has to be placed on the top bar of the file, and left click held down for 4 or 5 seconds before the file can be dragged/dropped. Very, very annoying as this feature is frequently used for filing purposes, etc.
eSATA socket: After every update, the eSATA socket fails to read the docking station for spinner hard drives. Usually it can be fixed by running Troubleshooting in Control Panel, which updates drivers. But last time this failed and it only worked after installing "Intel Rapid Storage" onto Win10. Other times it only worked after running the hard drive on Win7 eSAtA, and right clicking the hard drive icon in Computer > Properties > Tools > Check drive for system file errors. It then worked in Windows 10 eSATA port, but the check drive was not originally available in Win10.
I hope the administrators of Windows Insider rad these posts.
