Windows 10, Version 2004 update failed to install
So, I've tried installing this update two times now without success. I've ran the Update Troubleshooter & tried reinstalling...still getting "Last failed attempt on 9/28/2020 - 0xc1900101". Is there a file or files from the Microsoft Update Catalog that I can use in order to update manually??? Please help & thanks in advance 😊

Groove Music vs. Windows Media Player
Which is the better of the two? Do you have another one that you like even better? I like Groove Music for listening to music, but I prefer the simplicity of Windows Media Player when listening to voice mail messages attached in e-mails.

Starting with Windows 10, then having to Migrate back to 8.1
When I bought my laptop it had widows 10 free upgrade, which I used. Then after free trial, I had lost my higher paying position and now we're rebuilding again, I was forced to go back to 8.1. I saved and partitioned off what was in my prior operating system and portioned it. I'm running on a small portion of what space is available. Will it harm my operating abilities and capacities if I delete the older windows 10 information? or will I lose key kernel pieces needed to keep my pc working? Please help me!!!

Windows 10 and SSDs
My PC, about a year old, has a 128GB SSD, which is of course my C-drive. It was almost full,tt all but about 6 GB, because that's the way Dell set it up. Much of it is system but a lot is apps and there are also temp files. When the latest W10 update came along it insisted I did not have enough space on to install it. It said I could use the D drive but then seemed to ignore that and I had to start clearing apps and temp data off the c drive, with what damage I am not yet sure. It took ages and after I had done the update the c drive is no fuller than before the update so it looks like the update was using the c drive for workspace. Does MS not know about SSDs and the fact that they are likely to be full or do I blame Dell for the way they set it up. Of course once an app is on the SSD it is near impossible to move it to the D drive (which is near empty). D Quinn

Disappointing Lack of Diversity of Windows Community Team
Disappointed that the Windows Community Team is not very diverse in terms of underrepresented groups in tech. We were very saddened that there were no Blacks, Hispanics or individuals who are differently abled in the group.

Windows 10 Update fails entire OS Win10, 2020 Update failur
I had an Old PC with Windows 8.1 pro, which 4-5 yrs ego updated to Windows 10 Pro by Microsoft. Yesterday I got ultimate 2020 update offer from Microsoft site and after hours of download and installation, my PC had every kind of problem, and now it does not even boot to OS. Searching on Internet, I found I'm not alone, and millions of peoples having the same problem. First I think it was very stupid for Microsoft to put this update out there, and making people to somehow go for buying a new version of Windows 10 (base on its 7-8 yrs cycle of new OS release). It could done this honestly by releasing a new Windows for sale, and I would not lost tons of file and $100s worth of installed Software on my PC. Now there is not even a USB tool or USB Trouble shooting neither any clue, where the problem is. My system on my most used PC I had is blocked, and no any reference on Microsoft attack the problem the way to solve, but leading to get a New Window OS, use installation USB, and here you go Now you have a new Windows 10 sold. Seems like Lebanese Gang working with Indo-Bangeladeshi Programmers to run Microsoft 2020 !

Need help in finding the tricky folder with no folder name
I've a folder which have name with 5 characters. I'm not able to find which font or which language it was. If i'm trying to access from powershell, it's showing ????? or 5 boxes. I've screenshots from powershell also. I've tried google translator also by pasting the hidden text in it for checking whether it can detect the language. But, I've not satisfied. I think it is an arabic name. The actual folder name I'll paste at the end of this description because if i paste in between, it's misleading the typing also. You can copy the folder name and paste in notepad of somewhere and use arrows for checking how many characters are there in the text. The actual folder name is "‫‫‫‫‫"
