Good idea,I like windows explorer though ( apart from not have tabs, dual panes etc ) whats the best free one?, I tried free commander, its decent but I prefer the look/feel of explorerHave you tried other file managers?
I retract my comment - unfortunately Microsoft Edge still freezes and loses tabs at random, and other Windows Runtime apps are still very brittle.October Update version 1809 looks the most stable Windows 10 version so far. No stupid Start Menu/Taskbar freezes or Microsoft Edge hangs and slowdowns
https://www.guru3d.com/news-story/w...roubleshoot-and-automatically-fix-issues.htmlMicrosoft shared word that it will start using Windows 10 telemetry data to help users with computer problems. Users with problems currently have to find the right troubleshooter to try to solve their issue. With upcoming Windows 10 revisions, that'll become an automated process.
The improved troubleshooter will actively use your diagnostic telemetry data collected by the system to diagnose computer issues reports myce today. Based on that data, Windows 10 will detect the problem and provide a tailored set of fixes that are then automatically applied. Microsoft hasn’t provided any specifics on the information that is shared and used for this feature.
...
When, and if, the feature will be added to the production version of Windows 10 is unknown.
the new update has been good in my case 'cos it brought back the spell checker -for some reason it didnt work before-, the language packs can be downloaded now -I couldnt download them in the previous version- and some enhancements like the new snipping tool or Storage sense are fine.I retract my comment - unfortunately Microsoft Edge still freezes and loses tabs at random, and other Windows Runtime apps are still very brittle.
It continues to amaze we how Microsoft would spend resources on stupid new features and "apps" that no-one really wants, but won't ever fix the fundamental problems that plague Windows for decades. It looks as if they had to give up on their core desktop user base and use their limited resources to pursue Satya Nadella's "Mobile first, cloud first" agenda - unfortunately the first part failed miserably, and what would happen to the second part (Windows Azure/Windows Server) if they also lose the desktop?
You still need to enter a password on occasion but I assume you've setup 2fa for your Google account? I rarely ever need to login again, once every few months?Unrelated question, but is there anyway I can sign into my google account on the PC with my phone? eg like with whatsapp I just scan a q-code on the PC screen with my phone, instead of typing a password on the PC everytime.
It seems like it would be quicker and prolly more secure (no keyloggers for example)
yes open a browser on your phone and go to https://www.google.com/gmail/but is there anyway I can sign into my google account on the PC with my phone?
how does that help?, perhaps you dont understand what I want?yes open a browser on your phone and go to https://www.google.com/gmail/
Oh but its very possible see what I wrote about whatsapp. Maybe you dont use it? If not heres how it worksWhat does logging out of the PC have to do with your Google account? Also you can't use your phone to login since there's no mechanism to retrieve anything from your phone until it knows who you are by logging in...
it will sign in to your google account you use on your p.c which is what you want to dohow does that help?,
That's not what he's asking. He wants to authenticate from his phone whilst logging in on the PC.it will sign in to your google account you use on your p.c which is what you want to do
(as long as you use the same login as you do on your p.c)
