Brink - somehow I thought this forum is for Windows 10 - anyway I'm using windows 10 and I see there is another long thread with the same problems on the windowsten forums!!! So After restarting, each account says welcome for a while then back to "preparing Windows'. I am really frustrated...

A few restarts allowed me to get into an admin account, where I deleted the .bak SID keys. I was unable to copy the entire contents of the C:\User\folder though. I now have the new user account with the old one still in tact. I am trying to copy the files over manually, which is better than...

Now there are so many folders listed under C:\Users\ ADMIN2 Administrator Administrator.AGAsusLaptop Administrator.AGAsusLaptop.000 *Four family accounts* Default.migrated Public TEMP They reappear after I delete them.

I've been trying to but system restore failed.

Brink. All of my user accounts (four people ion my family use this computer) are now experiencing this preparing windows "BS". I have just enabled the built-in Administrator account in safe mode, disabled safe mode and restarted. I selected the administrator account and it still cant sign in...

The card is not locked. Nothing is working. Diskpart, attributes disk clear readonly AND "CHKDSK X: /F" did not work.

Ive been using a SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC Class 10 Memory Card with my Lumia 1520 for the last year with little to no problems, then last week the phone can no longer save photos to the camera roll on the card. I've tried all of teh trouble shooting I can, and have made a copy of the...

Thanks - I've been messing with the left monitor's custom color temp menu ("user mode") to get it to appear to match (at least to my eyes!) while the right side monitor is left on the pre-set "warm" color profile. Looks more similar now. Brightness, contrast and gamma seem to need similar...

The monitors are Asus VN247H-P, with the exact same settings in the monitors' settings menu and through the windows display color calibration tool. Yet they look quite different. Thanks for any advice. The laptop is the Asus N550JV-DB72T with nNidia GeForce750M.

thanks. I'm not sure what else to do to get these two monitors to match better.

I figured out how to apply the previously created profile to the new monitor (same brand and model) yet they still don't look right!

Just got a new monitor and cant seem to get it calibrated to match the original external display that I set up last year. The settings I've adjusted through both monitors (hardware) on screen settings menu are identical, yet the color profiles look a bit off. Under color management, there is an...

That is peculiar... I've looked into it further. On my SP2, renaming the accounts shifts them into alphabetical order. But I noticed that my Outlook account is not presented, just my other accounts, which are easily sorted alphabetically. So, I checked on my laptop and saw that my Outlook...

My inboxes show the day mail has arrived, not the date, for the past week. Scrolling through the inbox, it is difficult to find mail based on when it was received. Is there any way to change the view of information display?

Mine sorts alphabetically by account name - i just checked this. Go to settings from the charms bar, then accounts, then select the account you want to be displayed first - your Gmail and rename the account name to be first alphabetically. You should see it jump to the top of the accounts list.

Looks like that ^ feature is not available in the version of Windows 8.1 update 1 that I have.

I have a few Temp logons recently, and then had to copy my profile over to a new user account. Creation of the new user account seems to have gone pretty well, once I signed into my Microsoft account, everything associated with it is as it should be. However, there a few of the older "Users"...

Today, after having all kinds of permissions errors with my Temp folder that prevented Dropbox from running, I now can not load any Metro apps. They all start up by opening their splash screen and then immediately close.

Hey there Brink... I ended up re-indexing and rebuilding my libraries, so that now when I select This PC, everything is there as it should be! Bu now there is some peculiar behavior with the lock screen slideshow displaying my, ahem, hidden files. I have a folder or two on my external drive...

I have an Asus N550JV touchscreen laptop that I use primarily as a desktop replacement with my external monitors. I have set everything up to use the desktop interface and desktop versions of all apps where possible. Today I decided to take the laptop out and am now using the touchscreen. I am...
