Hi there, my laptop is run with windows 8 In the past I was able to connect with new/other WIFI networks (e.g. in hotels) without any problem. Now I discovered that only "known" WIFI networks are shown with which I can connect without any problem. WIFI router works without problem (was able to connect with my smart phone and tablet easily). I am using McAfee LifeSafe and checked with their hotline. Even after having de-activated all features of McAfee problem could not be solved. What can I do that new/other WIFI routers/networks are shown again in the list of available networks? In a nutshell: - WIFI router in perfect function - smart …

Hello, I have a Gateway with windows 8.1, I had a small issue of a virus and i refreshed the PC.

Ive tried safe mode with networking as well as troubleshooting the windows updates which shows my error is 0x80070490. However, that error is unable to be fixed because when I run the same scan again, it still says it was a problem and has been fixed. Any help is greatly appreciated. John Continue reading...

by Guest maryanneko- 0 replies

I've searched for solutions to this issue on this website, and none of them seem to be working, nor do they target this specific error. This is incredibly frustrating for me, especially seeing as how I need to create more space on my C Drive so that I can update my Adobe applications. So, further breaking down this issue. I cannot seem to delete this application called Gramblr that I installed two or three years ago. Every time I attempt to do so, this window with the message 'This action can't be complete because the file is open in Windows Connectivity Manager Gramblr' pops up. I would appreciate it if someone could notify me of a solution to this error. Contin…

how to undo an OS revert?
by Guest MarvinAxsom Jr- 0 replies
- 131 views
I have someone that "somehow" reverted their PC from Windows 10 back to Windows 8. Is it possible to undo this, can I take it back to Windows 10, without them having to buy another copy of W10. He doesn't remember buying a copy of W10 before, so I have to assume this was a W10 free upgrade. So, basically I would like to undo the revert. Honestly I do not know if this was a revert or factory reset. I do see Windows.old & Windows.old(1) folders. Any help is appreciated... Continue reading...
