Minecraft Dungeons
I am a HUGE Minecraft fan and was super excited when the "Microsoft Rewards" program introduced me to Minecraft Dungeons. I watched the trailer and wanted to play it REALLY bad, but I was wondering if it was worth it. I really wanted to try something Diablo-like that wasn't rated "M", but overall didn't know much about it. My final question is: Is Minecraft Dungeons any good?🦊

The Bitlocker recovery system!
WTH is this thing! It blocks my system on start-up, and I've tried all the on-screen suggestions to get rid of it. The only thing that seems to work is restarting it twice. This is awful. I don't think it's the hardware. Pretty sure this is Microsoft's fault, especially since they won't discuss it with me via chat or over the phone. This is a huge annoyance and I just bought this computer.

AutoSave is no longer an option
AutoSave is no longer an option for Word and Excel (I'm guessing the whole Office packet... that I already purchased, I might add) after this latest update unless I put it on the Cloud. If I wanted all my schooling documents and Spreadsheets on OneDrive, I would have put it there! I think it's pretty lousy and a touch of "big brothery" to require us to upload everything to the cloud to have access to features that we had been using all along. Was this just an oversight for this latest update, or is Microsoft getting kind of creepy on us? I'd like this back, please.

Safely Remove USB Hard Drive
Hi, Some times I get this message when I try to eject my hard drive. "This device is currently in use. Close any programs or windows that might be using the device, and then try again." I have tried many suggested methods that I found on google search. None of them worked. Is it safe to just pull it out as suggested on this article (please see below) Thanks Thiru -- hide signature -- Microsoft Ditches ‘Safely Remove USB’ Requirement — Just Pull It Out 8 April 2019, 7:31 am EDT By Carl Velasco Tech Times It's common practice to hit "Safely Remove USB" before pulling out a flash drive from Windows devices, but Microsoft has officially called it quits on that requirements. As part of a new update, the Redmond company has modified the way Windows 10 handles disconnecting USBs or Thunderbolt storage devices. The change applies to USB thumb drives, external hard drives, flash drives, and even data transfer connections between PCs and smartphones. It took effect with the wide deployment of Windows 10 version 1809, which is the October 2018 update. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/241057/20190408/microsoft-ditches-safely-remove-usb-requirement-—-just-pull-it-out.htm ---------------

Task Bar Compromised
After the last update, my taskbar is "cut in half" in other words, the top of the icons are visible, and I have to guess --mostly correct--what I am trying to click on. I have called Microsoft and the technician talked to me, I thought he would help, but the usual "click" and he was gone. I have tried all other remedies suggested, but nothing addresses this particular problem. I have tried moving the task bar to the side, rather than the bottom, but it still presents with only half. Any ideas what else I could try? Every update something else goes hinky, I think this is one of my lesser evils in a dozen of disasters, it is just annoying.

Bad Computer...Bad Boy!
Computer was acting up this morning so I decided it needed to be cleansed. All went well. Everything is pretty much back in place except for two things, and I can't figure out how I did it. Previously on my Start Screen I had Sticky Notes, and now for the life of me I get figure out how I got it there. I do remember before Microsoft went and messed thing up one could drag from the taskbar to the desktop! maybe that's what I did! Anyway the second thing is I can't seem to find the flag to turn on the pin websites. Did they take that away, or if you have the flag would you mind posting it please. Thanks

Device NOT offered May 2004 update, post "broad deployment"
As of 02/03/2021 - The "Dashboard" site "Windows 10, version 2004 and Windows Server, version 2004" states: "Windows 10, version 2004 is designated for broad deployment. The recommended servicing status is Semi-Annual Channel." I am a "seeker", every day morning & evening. My device uses "RealTek" audio drivers. NO (Conexant) drivers! No docking station. Installed latest drives offered by manufacturer ASUS for device X540UAR; Windows Update, and Microsoft Catalog. My OS version (1909) Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.1411]. "Broad deployment" is not happening for me! Perhaps additional AI "training" is necessary.

Deseo usar Planner.
Intento acceder a Microsoft Planner en la web, pero al iniciar sesión en mi cuenta, aparece un error que algo salió mal. ¿Debo usar una cuenta corporativa para eso o puedo seguir usando mi cuenta personal? ¿Es una falla del explorador web o han cambiado la página? 😟. Espero sus comentarios 😀. Esto es lo que decía en la página: Uy, algo salió mal ...
