Tips of the day: Exploring and maintaining your computer
To see how much disk space is free, hold down ALT and double-click the icon for the drive in the This PC window. You can solve disk space problems by accessing Storage in Settings or Disk Clean-up. To free disk space, try emptying the Recycle Bin. Deleted files and folders are saved in the Recycle Bin until you empty it. You can use File Explorer to see all the file son your computer. You can use Paint (normally launched by clicking Start, scrolling down to Windows Accessories, clicking Windows Accessories, and then clicking Paint) to draw pictures and view bitmap files. When a folder is open, you can press BACKSPACE to open a folder one level higher. Use Preview Pane in File Explorer to preview a document without opening it by clicking a document. When you display files in the Details view, you can sort them by clicking the column headings. To sort the files in reverse order, click the column heading once more. You can right-click anywhere to see a menu of available commands. You can try many useful programs by clicking Start, scrolling down to Windows Accessories, and then clicking Windows Accessories. In File Explorer, you can set options to show or hide three-letter filename extensions. If your computer's network is set to Private, you can access the Network folder in File Explorer to see computers in your workgroup. Use the error-checking tool periodically to check a volume for errors. In This PC, double-click a drive while holding down ALT, and then click Tools. If you have an external hard drive, you can use File History to make copies of important files. Press WINDOWS LOGO + I, click Update & Security, and then click Backup. For security, you can lock your computer whenever you walk away from it by pressing WINDOWS LOGO + L. You can also take your phone with you and allow your computer to lock automatically; this is called Dynamic Lock.
Windows defender stopped
I can see here that a lot of people are experiencing problems lately with windows defender, just as I have. What is happening? My laptop was in sleep mode for 4 days, working just fine before and now suddenly the windows defendeer isn't working and the threat protection can't be restarted. New tabs aren't working, I can only reach websites through those tabs that were alreay open when I left the computer 4 days ago. Seems to be some major problem, what do you suggest?

Disappearing app upon restart in Windows10
I am on Windows10 and it is up-to-date. I have downloaded, without any issues, a small macro program called TinyTask to run a small macro from Hotkeys for recording mouse movements and for playbacks. Everything works fine except the app disappears every time Windows10 restarts, and I have to reinstall it. It seems that, upon a restart, Windows Security scans my computer, decides that TinyTask is a virus, or a Malicious Keylogger, and stops it working. Is there a way whereby I can have the TinyTask program excluded from those automatic scans by Windows Security?
Clean up my windows 10 mail and calendar fuctions
Having tried just about everything for years now, I am considering setting up my Windows 10 PC with Windows Mail & Calendar, supported by gmail. I have been using outlook.com for years and intend to use my existing user name in the new free mail facility, so that my friends can recognise me. Does all this sound workable? Regards, Graeme.
