I would like to understand why this ...
I could not stand it, I had to come here to tell this to microsoft and for what you want to hear, why discontinue a system as good as windows 7 to put users in this system full of flaws called windows 10? , i use windows 10 i explored it completely and it's sad ... microsoft says that support ends up having too much time and if using windows 7 after support users will be exposed .... i'm sorry to say more this is not argument why i believe microsoft knows well that if one is looking right between a user with windows 7 after support and another using windows 10 with support the most exposed vulnerability is windows 10 so i want to tell all this to those are thinking about migrating to windows 10 or already have windows 7 and are feeling threatened by it, and what I say is: Do not abandon a system that flows perfectly to one that is worse than windows xp! Thanks for your attention, sorry if I offended anyone else I needed to state my opinion that this story of ending support should be Reanalyzed.

Why ? Have not anyone come up with a solution...?
Hello...Greeting smile!! Yes, that is a question, Why not ? Just think of the powerful impact this would have... 1. To be able to use headset/mic in a gaming world,working with the "CC" that is short for "Close Captions", as you see on most T.V. platforms for the Deaf and Hard-Of-Hearing world. But, does it end there, NO it does not... 2. While yet it is a small spectrum of people who rely on having to read lips or a simple text messages on their phones/T.V. It does not stop there, for example...one could be of a different nationality ,not knowing the language/s of whom they are trying to listen to and how to gain a understanding of... could simply put on the headset with a mic, and presto the language/s can be understood by both parties, because of the languages barrier/s is now understood as a 'minor obsequy"....Now no longer is there a barrier to not understand a unknown language/s. 3. Or simply wanting to have no sound, but just a text messages ,and a piece of mind knowingly that you will have a record of the conversation/s with... *the market is open to something new and bold. Why not give this a starter in an known format as in CC. Thank you for reading this, And please help those who have great ideas...to better the world now and tomorrow.

can't see albums in the MS Photos App
I use the Microsoft Photos app from the store a great deal. I have lost the ability to see my albums in the photos app. They are in the web OneDrive and prior to last week they appeared when I wanted to see "all" in the photos app. This enables the user to add photos to albums and then have it uploaded to OneDrive. I'm of the opinion that installing a Windows 10 S0H2 update, KB5001330 may have caused this problem, when I installed it on 4/14/2021. At the same time I've lost the ability to see photo albums in the Desktop OneDrive app. I know the photos app is closely integrated with OneDrive and I suspect something has caused the two apps to not be in sync. Are others who use these apps experiencing the same problems? Does anyone have an idea of what I can do to get the photos app and the Desktop OneDrive app working properly? Ken84

MS Edge Version 90.0.818.42 Official Build "Question-?"
Hello Everyone, I have a question about the new Version of MS Edge 90.0.818.42 (Official Build) (64-bit) running on my Windows 10 Home Version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.928) with all current updates applied. The thing is, in Edge Under Settings/Profile/Personal Info, there is a list of Autofill information that Edge uses to speed up filling out forms on the net. I have turned this feature OFF (Just Now) the "Save and fill personal info" and it no longer suggests the information there. However! How do I "Delete" the information still visible there under this setting???... I have tried "Resetting Edge" and almost everything I could think of to try. With NO luck. What am I missing?... I know it's probably something very simple that I'm just not seeing👀 Thank-You For Any Help You Can Offer ______________________________________________________________ I Found It! 😲 If you have this same problem go to : 1-Clear browsing data 2-Choose what to clear 3-Autofill form data (Includes Form and cards) That's it 😊 Enjoy!

Tips and Tricks for Windows Performance
Let's limit it to the aspects of operating system and software, not hardware. Everyone knows that upgrading memory, SSD, graphic card will certainly improve performance. What will you do (tinkering or setting) to improve Windows performance on the devices with average specs. Let's share together (your tips and tricks or advice). Thank you ! UPDATE 10 December 2020 : What is shared here is more intended for computer used to support daily activities at home or office, to utilize its potential. User having a high-spec computer designed for heavy gaming might less feel the difference. Nonetheless I think some tips will also be useful for gamers.

Microsoft You're Confusing me Again!
It's a well know fact that Microsoft has pulled way back from the consumer market to primarily focus on Enterprise. That's ok, for us consumers will benefit with this move, and already have with the change from Office 365 to Microsoft 365. What's got me confused now though is all of this talk about Microsoft wanting to first buy ByeDance's, Tik Tok venture into the U.S., and now there is talk that Microsoft is looking at buying the global works? Huh? My first question would be why. Given that Microsoft has no real track record in this type of media that I can discern it doesn't make any sense, at least not to me. Sure they (Microsoft) own Yammer and Linked In, but those are in a whole different league. Second reason it doesn't make sense, is that the recent realignment of Microsoft confirmed once again the direction they are continuing on even stronger in the enterprise arena. I see Microsoft doing this in part because they recognize the threat that Google is making with the Sheets, Docs and Slides, Chrome Book, etc. Those have come a long way over the years, and they (Google) are really trying to play catchup to Microsoft Azure, and Amazon Web Services, Heck Microsoft is trying to catch up to Amazon as well.... LOL If you're interested you can read the internal email here: https://www.thurrott.com/windows/windows-10/238762/windows-rocked-by-major-reorg Just a little food for though on what 's going to be another scorcher here in the Desert South West,

Windows Community Should Be an App like Feedback Hub.
The Videos created by the Microsoft team are an excellent source of information for beginning windows 10 enthusiasts who are just learning how to actually use and operate the windows OS. Also, the community of online users with an awesome collection of problem solving skills is an excellent way to be able to problem solve PC problems cheaply, skillfully and with with little to no experience. This should be an integral App like the Feedback Hub and introduced upon the installation of all new windows installs giving new users instant source of information for problem solving issues and taking the fear out of not knowing what to do if they run into a problem or just have a question. The Community is an excellent under used (In my humble opinion) source that would benefit everyone in the long run. What do you think?
