Renaming And Changing Appearance Of Tiles

Aug 3, 2015

Is there anyway of renaming tiles on windows 10? Also is there anyway to change the appearance of the tiles as they only seem to save as a blue tile with the Edge logo and a name that's allocated by the website?

Customization :: Won't Allow Window Appearance Changes

Aug 9, 2015

I've spent hours installing and customizing Win 10, but can't find out how to set windows so they always open to the format and specifications I'd like.

For instance, in Win 7, I was able to change the Scroll Bar, Title Bar, Borders, Menu Fonts, Window Fonts, etc.

I'll try to attach/embed a JPG showing how a typical window looks in Win 7 on my laptop. I'm apparently not bright enough to figure out how to do this in Win 10 on my desktop.

Modifying Desktop Icons Appearance

Aug 10, 2015

I have a problem trying to figure out how to change my desktop icons appearance (changing the size of the icon, the icon spacing, etc.). Back in Windows 7, this was accomplished by right-clicking the desktop, selecting "Personalization", etc

However, I do not see this option in Windows 10. All I can do is change the font size of the icon, but that's not what I'm trying to accomplish. I'm trying to make it bigger, such that the title of the icon fits on 2 rows. Where is this located?

Renaming Of Many Files

Dec 8, 2015

I have done it before, but cannot remember what to do.

I have a bunch of pictures from the Grand Canyon, taken on different cameras and cell phones.

All have differed names and I would like to make them all the same like:

change from: img_001_dgep.jpg and so on

to: GC2014_1.jpg, GC2014_2.jpg and so on.

I know there is a simple way of doing it, but I can't remember how.

Renaming Folders And Scrolling

Dec 22, 2015

Since Windows 10, when I try to rename a file, I right click allowing the file box to open. But as soon as I try to rename the folder, it closes out. If I just type in a few letters before it closes out, eventually I can get it renamed, but it takes multiple tries and is very time consuming.

Also, if I scroll down a page using the bar on the right hand side, the page continues to go back up to the top.

Won't Allow Renaming Of Files / Pics

Aug 1, 2015

Windows 10 won't let me rename files, pics etc in the normal way. It allows me to try, then reverts to the previous name. It is not a problem of permissions, I have checked that.

It will allow me to rename on "Properties", but that is one file at a time. How am I to rename a group of pictures? This really seems like a glitch.

Creating Or Renaming A Folder Causes Explorer To Crash

Jan 5, 2016

These are my issues:

When I create a New Folder and try naming it, it freezes, then Explorer will restart. The folder will be made but if I try to rename it, it will do the same thing.

When I try deleting that empty folder, the Moving to Recycle bin takes over 30 sec long, there is nothing inside it. I can delete a big regular file instantly.

The Context menu also has very black thicker separator lines compared to what it should be a faint light grey color. That was the first thing I noticed that was off.

Files Automatically Renaming Themselves - Duplicate File Names

Oct 12, 2015

I have a new laptop, so unless this is some weird feature that's specific to the laptop, then I assume it's a Windows 10 settings issue because I've never encountered anything like this before. I downloaded several JPGs and PDFs from various emails and began to change the arbitrary "234809238ksdfjskdfjsdlkf" type filenames to specific things indicating what they are, and I got done and realized all the stuff I typed was gone and the JPGs had changed to "filename(1)", "filename(2)", "filename(3)" and the same with the PDFs.. and "filename" was the name I'd assigned to the first file of each file type. The subsequent names I'd chosen were entirely different and the files were all unrelated to one another.

Start Menu Items Will Not Remain Sorted By Name After Renaming

Feb 23, 2016

I'm using windows 10 buid 1511

When I install a new program , a shortcut is created on start menu , and this shortcut is located correctly according to first letter , for example "Adobe Photoshop CC" , is located under "A" section on start menu.

But if I rename this shortcut to "Photoshop CC" , the shortcut remain under "A" section and will not go under "P" section as it should be. There's no option to refresh or re-arrange items on start menu.

Only Tiles On Screen?

Aug 11, 2015

Last night while exploring windows 10 I clicked on something on the lower right corner of the screen (tablet, maybe?) and my screen switched to 2 large multi squared boxes (Tiles?). I have clicked on everything imaginable but can not get back to the original screen. My taskbar is also missing in action. None of the things I pinned there show up. The windows logo does nothing when clicked nor does the task view button.

Customization :: Best Way To Add Custom Tiles

Aug 31, 2015

I've seen some different solutions, but I've been wondering what really is the absolute best way to add your own custom tiles to the start menu. Hopefully without having it open a separate program everytime you want to use one of your own. Currently Windows 10 makes all the icons smaller which I absolutely hate.

Here's what I am talking about:

How To Pin Programs To Start And Tiles

Nov 1, 2015

I'm fairly new to Windows 10 and everything is going well except for pinning programs to the start menu. Here are three programs giving me issues with this:

FastStone Image Viewer
Hyper-V Manager
Microsoft Movie Maker

I am able to run the programs if I go find them in Program Files, and I've created shortcuts to them on my desktop and in the task bar. However, they do not show up in the list of All Apps, and they don't turn up in a search from the search bar. I've added them to ...AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuPrograms and rebooted, and it did not add them to the Apps.

Live Tiles Not Working On SP3

Aug 19, 2015

I need to see if this is just me or what...I installed Win10 on my Surface Pro 3 without an issue, but since then I have had non-working live tiles on several apps: Weather, Tweetium, and People. Photos didn't work at first but has since started, although it scrolls through the same handful of my pictures over and over. I've checked and the live tiles are all turned on, and in each of these cases the tile is set at either wide (Tweetium and People) or large (weather).

I have submitted this issue for Weather to the feedback app and I noted that the non working live tile is the number one complaint. Are others having these problems with Tweetium and People too?

Live Tiles On Desktop?

Sep 29, 2015

Wanted to know if there is any way that you can place live tiles on the desktop. To me having to click start to view quick glance information is kinda' pointless and not a good way to be productive.

Using the Tablet mode on a PC doesn't cut it for me because of all the drawbacks (will not mention them here).
