The setting for per window explorer processes is off by default, no?
i have had it turned on for a while to increase explorer stability (folder crashes doesn't take entire explorer with it)
Next week, Apr10th
When I download my connection either cuts out or my PC just reboots itself completely. It's been doing this since I upgraded to 10. Anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it? Googling it hasn't helped me at all.
Update your network drivers? The generic ones might be sort of crap.
I have the latest ones.
I just downloaded the Fall Creators Update after weeks of procrastinating. Now, my buttery smooth laptop is super slow, and Chrome takes a full 20-30 seconds to fully load.
What the fuck, Microsoft?
My brother is having an issue where he suddenly can't save anything. I've tried numerous different things but nothing seems to work.
It doesn't matter where we try to save anything, it just says we no longer have permissions and I can't for the life of me figure out what the fuck is wrong.
TrustedInstaller took over your drive, eh? Might be worth getting the stuff off with a Linux Live distro and starting fresh.
Shoving that drive into a different Windows machine isn’t gonna work since that will listen to NTFS permissions.
I would say something took over the drive itself, but I created an alternate account just to see if the permissions issue was local to the account and sure enough it was. Any insight as to why that might be?
Alright, guys. I've done fucked up bigtime.
Whilst dicking around in netplwiz, I wanted to enable auto-logon because my computer loves to restart in the middle of the fucking night and it irks the shit out of me. In the process, a new account was created named UserHomeGroup$ and all other accounts on the PC were stripped of administrative rights. Ergo, I can't install anything, and while this isn't an issue right now, it will inevitably become one in the future and I'm not sure what to do.
I've tried the command prompt "net user Administrator /active:yes" method in safe mode with no success whatsoever.
I tried using Trinity Rescue Kit to erase and bypass the passwords altogether but the kernel fails to load and floods the command line with "ehci" errors.
I'm at a loss. I have no idea what to do and I'm desperate to figure out how to revert this, because system restore requires administrative access, which makes that entirely impossible.
Getting a weird problem lately where my Win10 Boot Times are about 3-5min (on the boot logo with the loading icon).
I already tried most things on the internet, no fast boot, sfc /scannow, chkdks, GPU/Chipset drivers.
ntbtlog.txt
Boot log shows a ton of not loaded spam of the same thing.
Had a similar problem to this and couldn't figure it out for the longest time. The rest of the system performed fine once booted, but the Windows logo was there for a minute or two.
Traced the issue down to the memory modules had installed and what must have been an issue with my mobo. After shuffling my memory modules the issue was solved.

What's [b]the[/b] app to use to create custom tiles on the start menu these days? The one I used to use vanished off the face of the planet.
Start menu programs should be displayed entirely differently
I'll never understand their idea of having a tiny program icon in a big box. Why not just show the program icon in a larger size, or let us change the icon like we can in other parts of Windows?
Yeah, TileCreator is rip, I still have it installed on my machine
but XDA has been suggesting this

Can't say how great it is on quality
Is there a reason why every section in my windows setting app refuses to load except after a ridiculously long time and/or a virgin sacrifice? And also why is it my services manager immediately stops responding the moment I open it? Or is just Windows 10 being shit?
Its difficult to fix everything else wrong with windows 10 if basic functions needed to fix things refuse to work
Anyone else noticed that Windows 10 started using much more RAM the last few months? I know about prefetch and stuff, but I'm sitting on a 10GB page file with 6.3GB RAM usage right now - my uptime is maybe 20 hours, and Chrome is really the only thing that could be doing its thing. I don't remember Windows (or Chrome for that matter) ever using this much.

Currently running Windows 10 LTSB. It's absolutely fantastic because it doesn't come bundled with the bloat that regular Windows 10 has (Windows store, those awful game advertisements, Cortana and other stuff) so you don't have to spend a whole bunch of time removing it.
Also, no Creators Update
The nice thing is that they don't get updates for three years. Similar to the format before windows as a service.
Update comes out next year, but they don't remove service until, in your case with Enterprise 2016; Mainstream support: October 2021, with extended being another five years after
You won't get the new features that some may appreciate, but you still get security patches which are of course more important
I run it too, but not having the MS store or Xbox is sometimes a pain if you want games.
If Halo MCC shows up on the store I’m moving back to Win10 Pro.
Huh, I don't really play stuff like that so I don't need access to those services.
So I want to use the dark theme, but the black/white contrast is too harsh on my eyes, yet when I type "win 10 dark theme" into google images I can see multiple screenshots like this one
https://www.hellotech.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/darktheme-min-1.jpg
where the "dark" theme is grey instead of pure black. How the hell can I change that? I can't find any options for it anywhere
That's from an older version, you can tell because the settings app has less in it and no search bar, and also the date in the URL.

But yeah, totally agree. I tend to go with #333 for my backgrounds and #CCC for foreground when I do custom themes for things. I wish the calculator didn't have the noisy texture but it at least gets the background colour right.
Oh I had no idea it looked different before, wonder why they changed it
Think that dates from back when the dark theme took a registry hack to enable. Microsoft has made it clear on numerous occasions their UI designers don't know what they're doing.
It's obvious that Microsoft has competent UI designers, question is whether they're working in the same direction.
You have UI desingers to design the systems in place
but then you'd have each different team making their own interfaces, therefore no standards across applications
I've generally considered Groove Music to have the most competent implementation
Speaking of Groove, I wanted to give it a chance but uh

It recognizes 5 albums and then dumps ~1200 other songs into "Unknown Album, Unknown artist" even though I'm 100% sure they're properly tagged, and other players can categorize them just fine
how fix
Can I at least make it sort by folder structure?
