View 1 RepliesI updated to the latest drivers for Intel AVStream Camera on my tablet / laptop. After the update, only the front camera works now.
View 1 RepliesOn my ASUS G74SX-3DE Notebook, Windows Camera no longer works after the app update(s) recently.
It would start up with:
Who makes the camera for the device and ASUS doesn't provide Windows 10 drivers except the camera works fine with other apps.
Windows installs a driver with the device listed as:
USB2.0 UVC 1M WebCam
in device manager with driver version 10.0.10240.16384 and the date
USBVID_13D3&PID_5134&MI_00
USBVID_13D3&PID_5134&REV_0725&MI_00
Windows explorer will only let me see the image files on my phone. I can not see any of my audio files or anything else for that matter. It thinks it is only a camera.

View 4 RepliesYesterday updated to 10586 my L930 and, as before, the Windows Camera App doesnt record audio on video shooting. I know my phone is affected by the L930 speakerphone mic problem, but until previous version of Windows Camera, audio was recorded at least in the other channels. No surround settings to manage in 10581/6. But after the last two updates, WinCamera is not recording audio. Cortana Works ok. And I cant install Lumia Camera, because it is just showing a "move to Windows Camera" message. The thing is, I already reported this through Insider Comments, but, I need to film video with audio urgently.
View 1 RepliesI downloaded win 10 to my hdd and then from usb stick to new ssd to get clean install. Now i want to delete windows file (not ".old") from old hdd but i don't have permission. How can i delete it?
View 1 RepliesI did an in place W10 upgrade on my W8.1 machine and all seems well with the update-I haven't run into any major issues at all. However, I'm aware of the new 'windows.old' folder allowing me to roll back for 30 days since the W10 upgrade and in my case its large..very large..at 172gb.
My PC, which has a 250gb HD was almost full prior to the upgrade and I chose to 'keep nothing' during the process. As I understand it I can choose to delete this now, or indeed wait until the 30 day expiration.. so would this in effect be my 'clean install' ?
I don't remember this being quite the same with the 8/8.1 process where I DID start fresh with that install. If I delete the Windows.old file then that's a clean install really right? How close to 'clean' is it?
I Recently got my new PC, let me just start with the specs:
Intel Core i5 4460
8GB DDR3 Ram
1TB Hdd
Asus M85-M Motherboard
Asus Strix GTX 970
650W Power supply (cant remember the exact one)
I Have no ssd and i want to buy like a 240GB SDD. I want to know if it is possible to buy the sdd and then install windows on it, (i have the Windows CD) again since it is already installed on my HDD, and then i want to know if it is possible to completly delete everything on the HDD and using at as another HDD, so that my SDD is the main boot drive, and the Hdd is just for storage. The last thing i want to know if it then is possible to upgrade to windows 10 again.So basically i want to know if it is possible to install windows on the sdd and delete everything on the hdd.
I had a Homegroup defined on Windows 7 Professional before upgrading to Windows 10 Professional. The annoying thing is right now I don't have an option to create a new homegroup, I only have an option to join the homegroup that was created on this same machine in Windows 7. The problem is I don't know the password and I'm not giving the option of changing the password or removing the Homegroup.
View 2 RepliesI received an ASUS Transformer T100-HA, which is essentially a Windows 10 tablet with a keyboard docking platform. I love it. Not entirely a fan of Windows 10 yet, but it is somewhat growing on me.
In the Windows 10 Settings panel, under the Storage options and the main OS drive, (a built-in 64GB SSD) I have the option to clear out temporary files and other data that is taking up space where it is not needed.
However, when I click the button to delete temporary files, it tells me to wait a moment, then goes back to showing the 16.4GB of occupied space that it had before.
Since a while i build my own computer, and i put some of my old hard drives in here, one of these drives contains a copy of Windows that i no longer use, But i cant remove it, and it is taking up quite a bit of space, i'm not talking about a Windows.old folder, but an actual Windows folder, now i was wondering if there is a way to remove this unused copy of Windows, i tried changing the owner to myself, and removing the read only tag, without much luck ...
View 5 RepliesI ran the upgrade and now have a Windows.old folder taking up 31GBs. If you are not planning on rolling back to 8.1, you can remove this folder following these steps: Windows.old Folder - Delete in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums
View 1 RepliesI have 2 copies of windows one on my 3TB HDD and one on my 250gb ssd. I would like to know how to COMPLETELY delete windows off of my HDD without formatting the partition. I know about mscomfig but I heard it doesn't delete windows of your disk space. How do I remove windows from my HDD disk space without formatting the partition?
View 1 RepliesI want to delete the windows old folder in windows 10 as its hogging up quite a bit of space, only upgraded windows 8 to 10 a few days ago.
However it wont let me, I have tried disk cleanup and tried to delete the windows old folder, but it tells me I don't have permission to delete this folder, and if I try again it says that I need permission from SYSTEM to make changes to this folder.
I have 71 names in my contacts list that I can't delete.When I upgraded to Windows 10, I started using Windows Live Mail. I imported some contacts from a .csv file. Others were imported from another file. I deleted that file after the import. When I open my contacts the names imported from the csv file shows "address book" under the names. The names that were imported from the other file, don't say anything.
Later I tried to deleted all contacts. When I try to delete the "other file" contacts, the DELETE button is grayed out. I can send mail using these contacts. But I want most of them off my list. I deleted all the accounts I had on WLM and uninstalled/reinstalled WLM. The contacts are still there. I am not using any social medias that could be tied to it. I have used Skype. But the names in my contacts are not from there.
After I upgraded to windows 10, I added a couple of new user accounts and deleted the only original windows 7 account. Now I can't delete the last remaining user account because it doesn't allow me to delete it while signed in.
Question 1: how do I delete this remaining user account?
Question 2: without a user account, how can I access the restore option to eliminate windows 10 and restore windows 7?
Question 3: will I be forced to reinstall windows 7 from scratch, and if so, do I need to do anything before installing windows 7?
I just updated to Windows 10, but all of my programs went into the Windows old folders. How can I permanently delete them. I am using a program called Eraser but it's taking forever and this is the second time I have been using another type of file shredder. Which is the best program....
View 1 RepliesI try to completely delete a folder from C:Program Files (x86), after I uninstalled the program it contained, but I get this message:
"You require permission from administrators to make changes to this folder"
But I am the administrator, no?
I sent a feedback without adding enough details to make the feedback look useful, can I?
View 2 RepliesWhen i press Shift+Delete to delete any file, it doesn´t do anything except maybe 10 beeps, its the sound it makes for example when asking for something or some pop-up windows like that. Also when I try this, like at this moment, when writing this in Chrome (which is pretty hard, because of the following things), it does weird things like typing random numbers, deleting the text, skipping the like if I pressed the arrows or enter button, also it was going back in browsing, all by itself. It happens more after when I press Backspace or Delete.
I don´t know what is happening, can´t believe this is a Windows function i don´t know about or if I should be worried about my keyboard or maybe even a virus. (I am not using any downloaded antivirus).
What does "%1" means in windows file open popup, or what program causes it? I think it's associated with picture file types (jpg, png, gif...)
Is there any way to delete it or find what program causes it and fix it by re/uninstalling that particular app?
I upgraded to windows 10 and downloaded windows live mail, it works, but when I download new emails it deletes all old and unread emails.
Yesterday I turned on sync as suggested, then I downloaded 10 new emails, I opened 5 and left 5 unopened. This morning I downloaded my emails, as before all previous emails downloaded yesterday disappeared.
I downloaded pictures form my digital camera, or at least I was trying to do. Somehow I got form installing my camera driver, recognizing my camera to importing the pictures form my windows 7 migration to Windows 10 and all of my camera pictures. They went to "albums" I lost them for a little while but found them again through notifications in the action center. I closed the display and now I can't find them.
I want to accomplish two things. Find out where my pictures went, then get my pictures moved out of albums, and stored back on the computer where they belong!
Before installing Windows 10, when I plugged in my camera to my PC, I got a dialog box from which I downloaded my pics. Now, nothing appears on the task bar, nor do I get a dialog box. Am at loss what to do next.
