I've had windows 10 running for two days and now every 5 seconds i get Windows Defender notification about being removed Spammer: Win32/Xmail. It wont stop and it's driving me crazy. I guess that's my fault for giving Edge a shot.

Speakers (VIA HD Audio) Would you like to disable driver enhancements for this device?" I click no. I decided to reinstall the card's device just in case. The installer program for the SBZ says it cannot find a device on my computer. It has vanished from the device manager and isn't listed anywhere in the list of sound devices.  All I did was move one USB device to another port. I didn't physically touch the SBZ at all. How do I fix this poo poo?Oh of course, Windows Fast Boot is the problem, Creative, not you.

Will changing my laptops HDD (upgrading to an SSD drive) invalidate its key? I was trying a clean install thing with the old HDD through the advanced start-up menu and it failed and now it's stuck in a reboot loop and I don't really feel like installing win 10 on the drive only to have to reinstall it in a couple weeks.

Shouldn't, as long as you've got the license for that hardware already.

Since I went from Win 10 to the Anniversary edition, I've replaced both of the main hard drives in my desktop: the SSD that I had the OS on, and the HDD I had most of my data on. That said, my Windows 10 is activated with a digital license linked to my Microsoft Account.

Just got windows 10 up and running on a computer for a non-profit I volunteer with...but haven't installed windows for about 15 years. Do I need to have an antivirus / anti-spyware / anti-malware tool(s) installed? If so, what are the free options? dexter6 fucked around with this message at 04:01 on Nov 8, 2016 |

No. Windows 10 comes with Windows Defender, which is probably the best anti-virus out there all around. Anti-Virus programs are ineffective at best and harmful at worst. No major security flaws have been found with Defender, which isn't anything that can be said about any of its competitors. To protect yourself from vulnerabilities you should employ "common sense" tactics: keep your operating system and software updated, run an ad blocker (ublock origin is great and available on most browsers), use unique passwords for all of your different accounts, etc.

Any ideas on why I can't connect to one of my machines at home with Remote Desktop? The machine is running Windows 10 Pro, the network is set as Home Network, it's on the same subnet, file sharing works fine. Remoting is enabled. But connecting to it with RDC from another Windows 10 Pro machine times out, whether I use the machine name or the IP address. I don't even get prompted to log in.

I want to buy Windows 10 Home on USB stick from Amazon. If I do will it give me the license number immediately after I make the purchase or do I have to wait for the item to show up at my door to get the license from inside it?

I just flipped the switch for including online web results, and now if I toggle the switch back off it just turns itself back on. Do I seriously have to resort to editing services or the registry for this?

You can install without a key and it'll run for a while. I don't remember how long but it should be long enough for Amazon to ship a USB key to you.

FYI the neat idea that someone up-thread had to disable the windows update reboot task in task scheduler does not work. Update gives no fucks, re-enables it when it wants a reboot. Forgot it was patch tuesday, left my pc to deal with some issues with my cat (she's very old). "Active hours" are 10am-10pm, update blitzed a reboot like 10 or 15 minutes after. Lost a bunch of work I had open. This is the second time, gently caress this poo poo. Oh, and the very important update today? Another weekly attempt to fix the goatse-like gaping anus of adobe flash. Something that MS could have avoided by not integrating it to the windows core IN THE FIRST PLACE. I've had more lost work and hosed apps I have to troubleshoot over the last 3 months than malware has given me in 6 years. Time to do the gpedit hack to turn updates to manual only. Any fuckos who say this is a bad idea, or that I should just change all my apps to MS ones that gracefully handle being force-quit by a reboot, can choke on my dick. Sanja Nadella can suck my balls at the same time.

I've been using it and it's been working fine for me. Are you sure you disabled the Reboot task under the UpdateOrchestrator tab and not something under the WindowsUpdate tab? See this guide to double check and make sure you're not missing anything. I just used the first hit on Google but it looks to be approximately what I did originally.

I just did the first part, disabling the task in scheduler. Hacking ownership and permissions on the file wasn't in the instructions yet. (I think I got it here which you can see updated after "users report that Windows 10 is able to re-enable this task automatically". I think the ghacks fix is better than theirs though.)

Hey so I have a question about a bug from a while ago where Java just plain didn't work in the Bash shell It's been fixed in Insider builds, but hasn't made its way to non-Insider builds yet AFAIK. Can any Insiders ITT tell me whether it's in the slow ring yet? I wanna be able to actually use the Bash shell for stuff on my work computer but I don't want my work computer to reboot like twice a week.

I updated two PCs today with the latest Windows 10 cumulative update (Nov 8th). The one PC (laptop, Windows 10 Home x64) was updated fine and after restart was working without issues. The other PC (desktop, Windows 10 Pro x64), installed the updates, restarted and was unable to properly configure an IP for the LAN interface (Intel drivers), neither by DHCP, nor by manually setting. It kept showing as "unidentified network" and had no access to the router (nor of course the Internet). Interestingly enough, the router web interface (accessed from my laptop) would show the desktop PC as connected and with the proper IP (either a DHCP assigned or the manual that I had entered via the botched Windows 10 desktop) After an hour of restarts, uninstalling drivers and trying different ones including the Windows default ones, disconnecting and reconnecting cables, it was finally fixed by resetting the router (there was actually firmware update pending for my router, so I did that and after the subsequent reset, the desktop starting working ok). Still not something that should have happened -- and I don't recall it happening before after an update...

I think the idea is that you can choose to boot into safe mode or recovery console in order to fix any inconsistencies or corruption (?) that W10 suspend may have caused. .
