Will they ever fix the bugs on Windows 10 Photos app?
1: JFIF files (excluding all other jpeg formats)not being able to stay in a album. (This is also a issue on Onedrive, as jfif files do not stay in there too.) 2: Paint 3D folder hogging performance for the photos app. 3: Not being able add photos to a album from another album. 4. State Repository Service, Runtime Broker, and Photos app all using CPU usage. I was wondering when are they gonna fix these issues, it's been a long time, and I'm thinking the intergrations are making things worse. All they did was round some corners on some buttons and then proceed to give up.

Hello Windows Community, What PC make and model are you currently using? I am using my HP Pavilion Laptop 15-cw1xxx. Someday when I can afford one, I want to switch and use only a Surface Pro X. (tablet not PC, I know...)
Sound output from win 10 device
I need my computer to generate a beep sound thru headphone jack to trigger an audio relay switch to commence a race timing countdown clock. The issue is that when the race software is maximised on my screen the audio relay switch fails to pickup the audio signal from the jack. I have checked that there is still sound playing in the headphone jack even when race software is maximised but when the software is maximised the audio relay doesn't work. I would appreciate any help in cracking this issue because we need the race software maximised at the same time as the beep. I even tried getting the race software to generate the beep but the same thing happened Thanks John
Language and keyboard issue
I set three Preferred Languages in Windows 10, each associated with a different keyboard layout: English (English-Qwerty), German (German-Qwertz) and Italian (Italian-Qwerty). I use different input methods for different apps, everything is smooth and fine and I can easily switch between keyboard layouts when I need to - with one notable and very annoying exception. Whenever I use MS Word, a fourth keyboard layout turns up automatically and messes up my typing: Italian-Qwertz. The point is that I have never installed it and it does not appear in the installed keyboard layouts under any installed language, but I cannot get rid of it unless I restart my pc and every time I run MS Words the unwanted keyboard layout is there again. This is driving me crazy and I would be grateful if you could help me regain my peace of mind.

Do You Remember the old Shutdown?
Long Long time ago, I guess it was Windows 95 or Windows 98, I remember when we click to shutdown the PC, it will show message like your PC is shutdown please turn off the power button. Anyone remember this? Those days, there wasn't ability to automatically turn off power button and you have to manually press it to turn it on or off. Later on new power button come around and when you shutdown your PC , it will automatically turn off power button too like what we have nowadays.
