Have logged on to Bridgebase.com for years but now asks for Adobe Flash player. When I try to download ADF it tells me it is integral to Windows 10 & is installed. Bridgebase tells me to ensure their site is included in allowed sites and to disable Active X filtering. Have done both & still no joy. Continue reading...

Windows update killed my usb 2.0 port in the front of the case
by Guest Pedenite- 0 replies

I've got an issue after updating windows 10, that my usb ports in the front of the computer case stopped working until i swapped the 7 pin header on motherboard (it has 2), whitch makes me believe that it's really dead as it doesn't work even in the bios setup. So I wanted to know if there's anything i can do if it's not really dead and if it is, I hope this gets fixed, because it can be really annoying having to let the usb header to motherboad unplugged every time windows tell me to update.

The April 2018 upgrade to Windows 10 caused a number of extremely annoying changes to my computers. I've been able to resolve most of the issues but I've spent numerous hours on this issue without success. I have two computers connected to an Ethernet switch. Both computers have Internet access that is working. When I select Network using the File Explorer on Computer B it shows 3 categories. Computers - shows both computers and I can display files on both computers. Media Devices - shows 2 devices Network Infrastructure - shows 1 device. When I select Network using the File Explorer on Computer A it shows 2 categories. Media Devices - shows 1 dev…

Update to Windows 10 - Can't find Desktop
by Guest Steve Southall- 0 replies
- 225 views
Running the update overnight and selecting UK keyboard, the computer reboots but the "desktop" shows only the "recycle bin", "Start Button", "Cortana" and the bottom right corner of the launch bar. An error message pops up that says: "Location not available" "C:WINDOWS\System32\config\systemprofile\Desktop is unavailable" plus a lot more general debug tips. When it does find it and boots normally I've looked at C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\ and the only thing in it is a folder named "AppData". If I turn the computer off and then on again it restarts the update and then asks for the keyboard country again. I'm stuck in a loop - can anyone help ??? Co…

win 10 Desktop unavailable after update
by Guest wwilliam50- 0 replies

Received an HP All in One Pavillion computer for repair that allows the owner to log in, however after login the screen only displays an empty recycle bin and an abbreviated task bar. The owner tells me that he accepted an offer to install a new MS Update and this was the result. From the task bar I can choose a new toolbar which then opens a screen with Icons for Folders, Network, this PC, and libraries. These folder Icons have sub folders under them but have no files showing. A window occasionally appears with the announcement that " :\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\desktop is unavailable" Choosing "thisPC" also displays the windows (C:) drive …

hi other devices such as usb drives,smartphones and HDDs which when plugged into my usb 2.0 ports work perfectly fine. Only usb wired gamepads are not recognized when connected to usb 2.0 ports but work perfectly when connected to a usb 3.0 port. I have tried connecting different gamepads (including an authentic xbox pc controller) in all the usb 2.0 ports but encounter the same problem always. Also when the joystick is connected in an usb 2.0 port it does not show up in the device manager's list and I do not hear any sound when the usb is plugged in but this is not the case for other usb devices. I have downloaded appropriate drivers from both the game…

Google drive screwed up after 1803 update
by Guest Mathemagic- 0 replies
- 223 views
Microsoft - why, immediately after the latest update, does Google Drive think that I have never set it up? I'm met with the get started screen where I have to enter my ID and resync all of my files. I have 50+ Gb - I really hope that these don't have to be downloaded again. You should not be interfering with any software I have installed and causing me this much grief. I've got a old laptop I use as a backup - is there any way I can avoid this when updating to 1803? Continue reading...

I have notice since the last major update with Windows 10 that my keyboard is no longer functioning properly. I can not get the at symbol, the pound sign, or quotation marks to name but a few? This is intensely irritating and awkward. It seem to me that after every major update with windows 10, something major stops working properly. How do I resolve this? Continue reading...

I submitted my question/issue, this A.M. but have yet to get a response. Should I expect one soon, or at all? As I indicated, I have Outlook E-Mail installed but it is not functioning. Test messages sent from my primary e-mail program, Roadrunner and my current Windows Live Mail never reach the Inbox on Outlook, though they are received by both the other services/programs. How do we rectify this problem? Continue reading...

Drive F suddenly appears on your computer
by Guest Jubonju- 0 replies
- 213 views
The Drive F is a temporary drive. I believe if you manually control your windows update, at some point this will happen. I noticed the Drive on my laptop after a prompt to update my windows. The drive is for updating windows. In your windows startup for powering off you normally have 'sleep, shutdown, startup'. When your computer downloads the updates a few other prompts will be added to that list, like 'update and shutdown', update and restart'. At other times you will be asked to restart your computer whilst you are working. If you ignore these updates for a while, the Drive F is going to appear on your machine. So i selected update and restart. It took about …

I meet all the requirement that QuickBooks requires but for some reason theTLS 1.2 is missing either for Quickbooks for IE 11 or just in general.. I have downloaded the latest version of dot.net frameworks. but when trying to install it, I am told that it is already installed. The best Information I can find is that this is not part of Windows 10.Still, I'm getting this message every time I open Quickbooks. and am told that after May 31, most of my Quickbooks will no longer work. This is particular to this computer. I can open the file on another computer without getting the message so it just happening on this particular computer but it is my front counter comp…

Windows 10 Desktop and or Taskbar frozen after every restart and the periodically after restart
by Guest SB_253- 0 replies
- 378 views
So I would like to start out by explaining I have done nothing but research this issue under every thread I can find over the last 48 hours and have tried every single listed fix to not avail. What fixes it temporarily (for about 5 minutes or less) is ctrl+alt+delete to open task manager, then if i just click on any of the active processes once, it seems to unlock the taskbar/desktop. But as I say this is a temporary fix and it is clearly not fixing the root of the problem Here is what I have tried. Restart Windows Explorer Run SFC and CHKDSK Run DISM Tool PowerShell Fix Run System Restore Enable the User Manager Disabling Recently Opened Items Perform a C…

My Asus laptop has been bricked by the April 2018 update. None of the solutions I have come across on these forums or in the many articles on this topic have worked. I have no roll back point. Resetting the computer from recovery mode (Reset this PC/Keep myfiles) does not work (I get the error "there was a problem tesetting your computer. Not changes were made). None of the other options accessible via recovery mode achieve anything. I think my only option left is to perform a clean install but I gather I will lose all my data and files in doing this. Again, reading various articles and forums I am not even sure that this will work as I hve read numerous report…
