Windows 10 v21H1: New Ecosystem Road To Sun Valley
If you are ready to use the Windows 10 v21H1 try "NOT TO MISSED" the Monthly "B" Update & The Optional "C" Update. I always INJECT IT INTO MY SYSTEM every available update/s that is offered via Windows Update (Check for Updates) button, I never missed one... Since 1909 to 20H2, luckily I never had BSoD/s but there are MINOR BUGS/ERRORS such as GAME HANGS, CRASH & FREEZE... (Not perfect System, unlike Clue in Tron Movie) I always CHECK, UPDATE & BACKUP my System, 2-3 days before the Monthly "B" Update arrives. When there is a corrupted files detected & repaired by SFC & DISM. I always do RESCAN.
Recovering from hard drive failure
Hello, Please NOTE: I have an extremely bad attitude when it comes to Microsoft and Windows. Therefore, I will refrain from offering my opinions and I would appreciate it if others would do the same. I recently had my boot SSD fail. I've installed a new one and installed Windows 10 on it. When I set up this computer initially, I only installed Windows 7 on my boot drive (it was later upgraded without my knowledge or permission to Windows 10). I installed all other applications on mechanical hard drives. I initially had Windows keeping a back up for my bootable drive. After a period of months the external 1 TB drive I was using to back up the 256 GB SSD was full. I looked at the files. It appeared that the backup initially created an image of the drive then added periodic small files for changes (once a day, once a week, I do not remember) and that a restore would require going through all files. I stopped using Windows backup. I have windows 10 installed on a new hard drive. I have three questions: 1) - Determined this isn't possible... 2) - How can I reinstall Microsoft Office 2010? Not sure if I can locate the original discs. 3) - How can I create and maintain an image of my boot drive so that when my boot drive dies, I can put in a new drive and restore that image? - I've read about using a RAID array but I'm not certain that would work for me because I'm not clear on whether replacement drives in a RAID have to be identical to those being replaced. This has happened to me twice since Windows 95. The first time I was able to access the boot drive and repair it though I haven't the faintest idea how or what I did at that time. I apologize if I did not keep my opinions to myself.
Install Windows XP on USB device
I would like to install windows xp on a USB device to run old software such as Microsoft Flight Simulator 98, and boot from the flash drive rather than use virtual machines. However, the install Windows XP on the installer is greyed out and I do not have the physical installation disk anymore (I lost it) just the disk image I created as a backup. How do I run the installer?
Update KB4571756 problems
the 9th september i shut down with an update and the 10th the PC didn't start. I had to use an external startup to install a backup from the 28th august operating system. So it was running again it starts with automatic updates. I restarted several times to update but after multiple times i figured out the last update KB4571756 will not install but keeps returning each time in the update menu. Don't know where to report this by Microsoft. Maybe more users have the same issue ?
Could this be impending hard drive failure
I have a Windows 7 PC where the hard drive fills up no matter how many times I run antivirus, scan CHKDSK, or disk cleanup. There is no grinding or clicking "sound of death" but thee hdd does spin loudly when that PC is inactive on sleep. I shut it down completely to prevent damage and need some of the files there. Is it time to back them up and change the disk?
Restore options
I can't figure out an easy way to set up a restore point in Win 10. It seems like all I can do is a backup. I had to reinstall Windows recently because I couldn't find anything about restore points. Did they get rid of this? If not, why isn't it easier to find? If they did get rid of it, bad for you guys. It was really useful.
Has anyone been having fun with Edge?
I have been using Microsoft products since DOS 1.0... Yep I'm so old that I can remember when we had to rub rocks together to get dirt to plant peanuts. Edge is unique that it has harvested all my favorites, since day one, and given me the dark side of Backup/restore. I tried my friends, and I have no enemies to ask, they all died of old age. And now Internet Explorer is being hauled off to the boneyard. Work, of course, doesn't use anything but IE... Soooo, me being the old geek and all that, they off load their problems to me. Does anybody out there in the land of people have had favorites listing so long that they could be used to fish with?
Windows 10 1909
I like to know the exact release date for Windows 10 1909 for all users, not just for Insiders. I've read that it is sometime this month or it could be between this month and next month. How will 1909 appear in Windows update? Is it similar to the monthly cumulative updates? Do I restart after it is finishing installing? Do I have to backup my files, folders, etc. before updating to 1909? Do I have to reinstall apps after going up to 1909?
