View 1 RepliesI can't find 'My Computer' to check out how much space I have on my C: disk. Where did it go? Also, how do I set my lists of Favorites on the left side as before in Win 7?
View 2 RepliesIt has been doing this EVERY time I restart or start up my computer. It is very annoying as it clears some of my apps. It also says it is putting me on a temporary account or something like that.
View 1 RepliesI accidentally upgraded from 7 to 10 on my desktop computer, and now I no longer have a start button, nor the ability to find any recognizable function like control panel, to enable me to uninstall.
View 1 RepliesAfter recent Windows 10 Update, my wireless connection no longer works. I've done some troubleshooting and I have ruled out my ISP, cable modem, and router, leaving the issue to be something within the computer (Dell laptop - Inspiron 7537).The wired connection works fineWhen I run Windows Network Diagnosis, it tells me that the Windows Wireless Service is not running (see attached pdf report).
When I try to manually start the WLANSVC service, i get an error message that says "Windows could not start the WLAN AutoConfig service on Local Computer Error 193:0xc1" (see attached)When I try to manually start the WLANSVC service from the command prompt (as Admin) I get a slightly different message that says "The WLAN AutoConfig service is starting. The WLAN AutoConfig service could not be started. A system error has occurred. System error 193 has occurred. *** is not a valid Win32 application." (see attached)I've downloaded the latest Intell PROset Wireless drivers from Dell (V18.20.0.9) for the Wireless-N 7260 wireless network adapter and have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers.
Keep getting these bsod error messages called Kernel_security_check_failure then my computer restarts it happens almost two to three times a day!

It stays on "checking for updates" for hours and never advances. I left it overnight and have tried multiple times. No errors, nothing.
View 3 RepliesOn 28/12/15 switched computer on and it went straight into Windows 10 updating, then came up with box saying "update fail", clicked on that and it then kept bring up different disc failures. Now stuck in blue screen which takes me into auto repair which then comes up with PC did not start correctly and gives different options : restart option throws me back to blue screen, troubleshoot advanced option - system restore won't give me any dates so have to cancel out, system image recovery - can't find any images, start up repair - takes me back round auto repair back to blue screen, command prompt - haven't the foggiest what to do here, go back to previous build - ran into a problem and won't be able to take you back.
View 2 RepliesI have the following problem. I upgraded to Windows 10 and now I can't access the disk of my other computer.
- Both PCs have the disks access open for everyone (home network).
- Both have the same password.
When I try to enter the C: drive of my other PC, I get an error that I don't have the privilages to do so.(I see them on the network, but I can't access them).
I'm trying to install Windows 10 clean install on my laptop via USB. I've gotten to the point where I'm configuring the hard drive and I got the message in the title "Windows cannot be installed to this disk"
I then deleted the existing hard drive and had roughly a TB of unallocated space. Created a new partition and formatted only to get the same message.
Background: Purchased an HP Elitebook 8460p a month ago running Win7 Pro. Can't quite remember how it was running when I first started it up. I upgraded to 10 a little over a week ago using window's upgrade. Immediately I felt it was running really slowly. I have 10 on a desktop which runs really smoothly. I checked and found that the laptop was consistently running at 100% disk usage. I looked up and tried various different fixes to the 100% disk usage problem including removing BITS and superfetch.
I felt that maybe there was a problem with Win 10 on the laptop so I used the native revert to 7 program in windows 10. I found that even in 7, the computer was running terribly slow. I decided to just do a clean install of 10 and here is where I am now.
Specs:
Intel Core i5
8GB DDR3 SDRAM
1TB HDD
I've read other threads here and elsewhere regarding the SATA device mode changing from IDE to AHCI. I just checked and it is already set at AHCI.
Since I changed to my new hard-drive I have had random issues with BSOD's trying to get into Windows.
The BSOD I get is: Kernel Security Check Failure
Usually, I just need to restart the computer, but now I can't get in at all.
I believe it has to do with some drivers, since the hardware has worked well in Win 8.1

I installed Win 10 a few weeks ago and today is the first time that I've turned it on since then. I checked for Windows updates and it found some and appeared to start to download and install them. Then the window disappeared and I checked for updates again. "RuntimeBroker.exe Element not found". What does this mean in Microsoftese?
View 2 Replies It won't let us access the local disk and says we don't have permission. I am the only user. It won't let us save anything on that disk either. I have gotten all of the documents, videos, and pictures backed up so that's not an issue. We are really just trying to reset the computer with a fresh start but it wont let us.
Resetting the computer- This wouldn't let me because it said it had an error. I did this by holding shift while restarting and then troubleshooting from there. I've tried the option of saving files and also whiping the whole computer, both ways won't work.Booting in safe mode- it works but nothing has come out of doing anything in that mode.
Just when I was happy with my installation I error checked my main C: drive with is a Samsung SSD, Windows reported that it had found some errors and it needed to be rebooted to correct them. I rebooted the PC and the check disk did it's repairs and it booted back in to Windows. I noticed straight away that the start menu had stopped working and when I opened Windows Explorer or did anything within it (like right click properties) or any settings windows like control panel it would take for ever. Opening programs like Internet Explorer work fine.
I have tried System Restoring to before I did the drive repair and sfc /scannow and Dism/Online/Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth but I still have the problems. The SFC found errors and corrected them but still no Start Menu.
I do have a Trueimage backup from Last Friday which I will have to use if I cannot sort this out. Yesterday due to a on going occasional BSD I had fully uninstalled my Nvidia Geforce Video drivers using a utility that was recommended to me on this forum, I then reinstalled the drivers and it had been fine up until I did the Scan for errors so I don't think it's nothing to do with that.
I installed windows 10 old window files were deleted today. Now my Microsoft word 2013 has no spell check.
View 1 RepliesMy Windows 10 does not start up faster as Windows claimed it would. It is very very slow indeed. I took a screen shot of the startup usage (Task Manager) and saved it as a Jpeg.what I can safely remove from this or else how I can make them go away for a while?
View 10 RepliesI upgraded my computer to Windows 10 from 8.1. After around a week of using Windows 10, each time I turned on my computer, I get a blue screen saying that the computer will restart. Like in the following picture.
Once it restarts, I can a log in and everything is fine. Except for one thing. When I open task manager, it says that my disk is filled at 100%, and the main program that is causing this is called "system".
I tried to increase the virtual memory, as seen in the next picture (I have 8GB of RAM by the way)
But that still does not seem to work. I downloaded seatools and it says that it is not a disk failure. Is there a possible correlation between the Critical_Process_Died startup page and the 100% disk usage?
I buy this laptop ROG GL552JX-DM019D together with Microsft Windows 10 Home English 64bit License OEM DVD . I tried to install the OS with Windows 10 from the DVD, but I could not, because after I typed the serial number of the DVD with OS , I received the following message:
"Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows can only be installed to GPT disk. Windows cannot be installed to this disk space. Windows must be installed to a partition formatted as NTFS.".
I have recently bought Windows 10 for my new PC and I do not have an optical drive. I am not sure how to put it onto a USB drive so I can install it from that. I've looked all over but I can't find a solid way to do it. I also only have a iMac as another computer so I'm not sure if it will affect how to put Windows 10 onto the USB drive. I need the most specific instructions that you can give me.
View 1 RepliesI have a product key windows 10 pro. Where do I find the disk online and download it? I would like also windows 10 disk in case I need to reformat my upgrade? I had window 8.1 but I know that soon there is no free upgrade.
View 1 RepliesI have upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. Now, my C drive is almost full with 714GB occupied by "System and reserved". I was in an assumption that, Windows 10 was suppose to take less space.
View 4 RepliesTrying to dual boot build 10130 iso on a fresh install of 8.1. Received a message:"Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is not of the GPT partition style"
Laptop is an Asus x550c.
System recovery to Asus factory default.
Asus has a default 4 Partition setup. I added a 5th, Partition 6, by shrinking Partition 4
Looks something like this:
Drive 0 Partition 3 128MB MSR (Reserved)
Drive 0 Partition 4 OS 395GB Primary
Drive 0 Partition 5 451MB Recovery
Drive 0 Partition 6 New Volume 48GB Primary
Drive 0 Partition 7 Restore 20GB Recovery
I'm using the new Build 10130 iso which just came out.I don't want to use a VM like I have on a Desktop.
I'm running windows 10 with 8GB of RAM, an Intel i5, an ASRock z77 Extreme 4 mobo, and a Radeon Sapphire 7950 HD. All of the sudden when I boot up my computer it is extremely slow and I found out that my disk usage was 100%. None of the processes in task manager show any usage that would warrant even 5% disk usage.
I looked up some guides and disabled Superfetch and Windows Search in services.msc then restarted my pc. That didn't work even though they are still disabled. I let it sit there for 10 or so minutes and the disk usage went back to normal at <5%. It turns out that if I hit the windows key or press the windows button in the bottom left it won't work and it just makes my disk usage go back up and within 15 seconds it is back to normal.
Why my disk usage is so high on startup and why the windows key won't work/makes me use 100% of my disk?

I have my system built but when i try to install windows 10 onto my kingston 120gb ssd its stops on 6% and it says in the bottom left that windows cant be installed to this disk the selected disk is of the GPT partition style i have never installed windows before...
View 1 RepliesI keep getting an error when I install Windows 7. I want to install Windows 7 alongside Windows 10. windows cannot be installed to this disk the selected disk is of the gpt partition style
I read solutions to this and most of them write I must format my entire hard drive, but I can't do that because that would mean losing all my data.
I know I need to disable secure boot in order to change the boot sequence. I ran into an issue trying to install Windows 10 on a GPT partition - it said it couldn't do it. So...after much searching, i learned (??) i need to use diskpart to clean the partitions to create one large unallotted space which would then allow me to install Windows. My question is, can i convert the disk to mbr and install Windows to it that way and run it in that mode. If i can do that, what would be the command to do that? > convert mbr after the clean command?? What about enabling secure boot?? Can i do that if i have installed Windows under MBR rather than GPT?
