Windows Controls Not Working?
Aug 8, 2015
Updated to Win10 yesterday and applied ClassicShellSetup_4_2_3 quite quickly so I don't know whether what I am experiencing was already like that before I applied CS. But since the problem persists when I shut down Classic Shell I assume it hasn't much to do with it.
Here goes the list of my problems (probably all have the same single source):
- I cannot left click the speaker icon to get the volume control
- I cannot open the notification center .. neither via left nor right mouse click (context menu)
- I cannot unpin icons from the task bar (no right click menu)
- Search icon does nothing when I left-click it
- I cannot launch the regular windows start menu via the icon in the CS start menu
- If I shut down CS and left klick on the windows start icon nothing happens
- I cannot add a new user
So in fact I have not even gotten to see the windows tablet UI and I don't know how to get to see it.

something weird going on with Parental Controls. My son has lost access to Google following upgrade to Windows 10 though, not unsurprisingly, he can get to BING. Is this a glitch or part of the Search Engine turf war between Microsoft and Google? Either way, I would like him to have Google access so is there a way to return the functionality without giving him an open access account?

I'm using a Dell Inspiron 15 laptop. Anytime I use a video app or service (the official movie & tv app, Netflix, YouTube in the browser) the video controls constantly open on their own.

I'm evaluating Windows 10 for my company to check compatibility with our systems and general user experience. We're a small business, and we're presently running a mix of Win7 and Win8.1 machines, all running Pro and joined to our domain. The two machines I've upgraded to Win10 Pro both have the same issue:
File Explorer, when opened, has a loading bar that never finishes. It displays the text "Working on it..." in the file panel, and a very small tree in the folder panel, with just "Quick access," "Desktop," and "This PC" entries. Many controls in the ribbon are also greyed out, including Options, Open command prompt, and the layout controls. (See screenshot)
Possibly related, the recycle bin does not behave as expected. Even with files in the bin, the "Empty recycle bin" option is greyed out both in the ribbon and in context menu from the desktop icon. I can only fully delete files by selecting them within the bin and deleting them again. (See screenshot)
I've searched around for people with similar problems, but I found only one thread describing this issue, and with a preview build. That thread contained a work-around (start->run->c:) which usually works for me, but which brings up a very quirky File Explorer window, with a folder pane that only shows folders I have actually navigated to using the file pane. It is workable, but I can't ask a normal user to live with this experience, so our upgrade plans are on hold until I can get this resolved.
None of my personal machines, including a Surface Pro 3 now running Win10 Pro, are having this issue.

Im looking for a software that splits a PC into 2 (controls separate 2 sets of keyboards and mouses). There are a few like SoftXpand or Aster Multiseat for windows 7 and 8.1. But I don't know if they work for windows 10.

While using Windows 7 I often disabled my wireless connection by using the f12 function key. It was disabled when I upgraded to Windows 10 via my ethernet connection. The f12 key now only controls airplane mode. I cannot enable my wireless adapter. I have an HP Pavillion dv7 notebook computer. HP says they offer no Windows 10 compatible upgrades for this model. Is there a solution other than restoring Windows 7?

Does the time warning that used to appear on screen for a child's account - two minute remaining... - is still present in windows 10? It seems like when my kid gets to the end of his allotted time for the day the computer just goes blank without any warning - often in the middle of an 'all important' game. Am I missing something or is this feature gone?

For some reason, some of my apps' window controls are missing their buttons (e.g. close, minimize, settings, etc.).There was once a similar incident on the SevenForums where someone had problems with their window controls not showing up, but this affects the Store apps and the built-in Windows apps as well. Of course I can interact with the window normally, but it's gotten annoying already.
Already ran the sfc /scannow tool and it didn't find any problems...
Already did register the Store and apps. That didn't work. For some reason, it only affects just apps, and not windows for Explorer, Task Manager, MMC, etc.

i have upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7 recently, and one day my pc crashed (black screen) so i had to force restart it (the button on the tower). After that, my Profile user got corrupted, and several issues (common for the Windows 10) appeared. (Like: Windows 10 start menu taskbar icons wont respond, Calculator no longer works (You'll need a new app to open this calculator) message, and the view in all the folders reverts to (details) no matter where i change it to (i had it on tiles, and every time i close the folder window and i reopen it, its on Details).
Anyway... i got sick of these problems, and the only solution i had was to create a new profile and abandon my current corrupted one. But i really want to avoid this option because its a new start over, and there are too much apps and programs that i have to reinstall, along with all the folders i have to transfer.
So i wanted to try to revert back to windows 7, and then re-upgrade to windows 10. That would fix the corrupted user. But it seems like there is another issue i have here. When i go to settings -> update & security -> recovery -> Go back to windows 7, and i start the process, my pc make 2 restarts and at the second one, it doesnt continue the downgrade, but it boots the Windows 10 again! It wont let me go back to windows 7. It just reboots...

I'm currently using Windows 10. I'm upgrading it from windows 8.1 Single Language. I make clean installation. So yesterday my Windows running weirdly. For example my, if I click "This PC", when it open, the explorer keep loading. I'm waiting like 1 hour but still nothing changes. There is no driver partition can be seen. I'm already scan with anti virus and anti malware with up to date database but still the problem keep happen. More frustration is I can't open control panel. BTW I'm already trying to restart the windows explorer in Task Manager but still it does not change. Plus if I insert any pendrives or external hard disk, the folder still can't be opened, it just keep loading.

I know there are tons of messages about how to install or force install W10 but I have a different error and none of the solutions seem to work.
I'm getting error 80244019 in WindowsUupdate every time I try to look for updates. I've tried since yesterday the force command line but it does nothing. I've tried also fixing Windows Update with WUdiagnostic. It "solves" 3 or 4 errors everytime I run it but it doesn't change the 80244019 error.
How do I solve 80244019 error?
I have also tried the MediaCreationTool way but when it's going to start the installation it says that I'm trying to install a different language, not the one that uses my OS so it won't let me upgrade The only way is wiping my files and apps and I don't want that. How do I change the language of the MediaCreationTool?

I have some problems with Windows Spotlight feature. Everytime I select this as my lock screen, it seems loading, but ends showing the Windows 10 default lock screen picture. I tried to restart, update, did a clean installation of this Windows build, but nothing solves it.

So, all of a sudden while watching YouTube (with Windows 10), my computer's sound stops working.
So to try and fix this, I restart the computer. But when I sign back on, the taskbar is completely clear of all my previous apps on it and the windows button refuses to work. Even when I right click the windows button, nothing pops up.
Also, when I open up apps on my desktop (like Chrome), there is nothing on the taskbar, so if I minimize anything, I can't get it back!

I have a problem with my Win10 laptop and the best way to describe it (i think!), is that the minimize/maximizing of windows is not behaving as expected.
For example: sometimes I am unable to maximize a window properly, it seems to maximize, but not come to the front of the open windows. so if I have a browser open, and try to maximize MsWord, the word window maximizes, but sits behind the browser so I then have to minimize the browser.
ALSO sometimes even this doesn't work as for some reason a window will change its position to off the screen so the only way to maximize it (without ending the program and re-starting), is to hover over the taskbar icon, right click the needed window and hit maximize.

My Windows 10 is having major problems. So many that I would rather just remove the entire thing. I found a website that said you can revert to your previous OS in settings, but my problem is I cannot even get there. The entire task bar and start menu are not working, although I can see them. I saw in another post that Windows Logo Key + I opens up settings, but my Windows Logo Key doesn't do anything.
I also cannot click on the notification icon to open up the settings. The few things I can do: double click on desktop icons to open them, right-click on desktop, and Ctrl + Alt + Delete. Task Manager freezes when I open it (Ctrl + Shift + Esc). How can I remove Windows 10 given these constraints? Also, the time on the taskbar is also not changing from when I turned the computer on.
After several restarts the windows button started working, so I took the opportunity to remove Windows 10.

So I've been having this error for idk at least 2-3months now, happens every now and then, but at least 1x by each windows login.
Think it started by one more recent Cumulative Update probably around December,. I also stumbled on one MS thread and that user reported it around the same time as I first noticed it for the first time. [URL] ....

I have Windows 10 Home installed and activated (as Windows to Go) on an external Samsung T1 SSD. I enabled hibernation per the instructions here: Hibernate - Enable or Disable in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums. However, every time I attempt to hibernate, the screen goes black but the PC never powers off and Windows never successfully hibernates. (Hibernation works perfectly on the Windows 7 installation on the internal SSD.)
