I am done trying to fix the Window’s t 10 start button.  I’ve gone to all these websites, including the Microsft forum and did all these tech performance things (some of them like powershell three times) and still got no where.  I’ve run scans and everything comes up with no errors.  There has to be an error, the start button doesn’t work!  While switching to a new user does work (and micorosft’s solution to the problem) that creates a whole new set of problems like locking me out of folders I need access too and with no guarantee that under the new user the start button won’t eventually die.  I soo regret switching from 7 to 10! 
It could be an issue with the Account, even thought that's rare. Try creating a new user account and saving/transferring all your current documents there. Then delete the old one.

I can't wait to move from New Jersey to Massachussets to begin living with my boyfriend. A little less than a year from now,  I will be! Just gotta keep on making that money and checking out the jobs up there. But I do get to spend 11 days with him in a couple weeks! Woo hoo!  :heart:

Like winter, or football, or snowcones, or bed bugs, or coupons, or picture frames, or water bottles, or cell phones, or baseball caps?  Those things?  lol

Why are you going to make an operating system incomplete, force it on people, then just assume all the bugs will be worked out in the upcoming updates?  On top of that why are you going to create a system (Windows 10) that centers around the start button when that’s main ‘bug’ of your system (i.e. it dies!).  I wouldn’t care so much if they didn’t change the personalization page.  Now your settings is on the start button and there is nothing you really do with the personalization page except change themes.

So stupid to boycott the Oscars.  Ask yourself, would white/Asian/Latin-American etc. protest the Oscars if it was all black?  Then ask the white host to join the boycott?  If the answer is no then why are you doing it?

All lives matter all races matter, that is what Martin Luther King Jr. stood for which is why ‘Black Lives Matter’ is racist and goes against his beliefs.

Joseph Finnes playing Michael Jackson in a upcoming movie…really?  Joseph Finnes?  Unless they do some serious make-up on him couldn’t they take an actual Black Actor for that?  After all Michael was black.  Yes, he had a skin condition which by the end of his days made him look more white than black and Joseph claims that Michael’s skin was closer to his own by the end which is why he was chosen but still.  And can he even sing?  At least when Jamie Fox did Ray Charles he was a singer—or at least had a very good singing voice for the role.

I’ve given up trying to fix the start button on Windows 10.  I can right click to turn it off so that’s all I need.  Yes, I am a bit disappointed I can’t create new themes/slide shows for screen savers like I do for all the holidays or change the color of themes now and again but there’s nothing I can do—and there is nothing Microsoft can do either.  All their techs say is that it’s a known problem from the upgrade not a problem when you a new computer with Windows 10 fully loaded.

I think Microsoft should compensate all of us with a broken start button by giving us brand new computers.  After all they caused the problem to our perfectly could machines, rendering them next to useless, especially since they linked everything to the start button.  I can’t even find half my programs now and thankfully the ones I use often I made desktop icons for.

I agree, the boycott of the Oscars is a big waste of time.  They need to get more done by getting more people of all colors in the movies.  It needs a push to get members of all colors in to vote.  Not just complain that not enough are nominated from any one ethnic group.  I am American Indian......I have never seen a lot of Indians, even playing Indians in many movies.  You have to start at the beginning, where the money is or comes from to make any real change.

I always use a timex watch because I need an electronic one.  To me Timex is the best because you don’t have to go hunting down the instructions twice a year when you need to change the time.  The instructions are basically on the watch itself.  You hit the set button and hold it (like it will say on the screen) then the plus or minus to advance or subtract the time.  The mode button is to change from time to stopwatch to alarm.  Then to set it up is the same thing.  I’ve tried Armitron and Casio and both had me hunting down the instructions though I do like the Armitron better than the Casio.

My sugar level was a bit to high so I had to cut back on soda.  I now drink a lot of water and when I take a soda it’s Sprite Zero or Diet 7up and I only take a little and drown it with a lot of water.  Thankfully Jello makes sugar free stuff so I didn’t have to do away with the chocolate pudding I love so much.

So who still has Halloween candy?  Yep, I still do but at least there is an expiration date on them so I know actually when to throw them out.

I stopped watching the cooking shows that I used to watch a lot previously. I use that time to try some new dish. More rewarding in every way.
