edit: Now I need to find out why the bottom is cropping off..
 
@Swagger897 ->
"Find the puush.exe, right click and properties it. Disable the DPI scaling and run in win7 compatibility. Now it should work properly"

I think this looks cleaner..

Err, what is wrong with the old PrtScn button exactly? Paste it into an image program, save, upload, job done.

Dropbox does one better.

Press PRTSCN an image will come up in your screenshots folder, then just upload that.
I love dropbox, makes things so much easier.

Because with puush you can crop things out and uploads it. Just works easier then PrtScn.

Had it, and it's why I'm changing. They don't come out as large as they do on Push, and it decreases quality.
 
Well I tried those two settings:

It now shows the task bar, however, it doesn't show the application. I run WT in full-screen, so I wonder if this is to deal with anything..
 
So windows 10 is messing my laptop up, updated on wednesday night, since then whenever i turn it on the mousepad doesnt work, i know its early but can anyone help?
 
Okay thank you for that 👍

I took it round to guy who has just opened a computer shop literally round the corner from where I live and he managed to sort it for now, but he basically said windows 10 is s load of crap that causes nothing but problems and It probably will happen again, my mum has the exact same Lenovo laptop as me and when she downloaded it it causes here a whole load of problems that un-installed it and went back to windows 8
 
My sister's laptop had problems with touchpad delay after upgrading to Windows 10, but installing the drivers from Synaptic's website fixed that problem. Other than that, she hasn't had any problems with 10.

I pretty much feel the same way, Windows 10 is very buggy at the moment. It's going to take years of tweaking before it's robust and reliable as 7 and 8. I also had the trackpad delay thing also when I tried upgrading a month ago.

Also I was reading about how much Windows 10 phones home to MS, it's insane... and this happens even if you opt out of everything. They are also bringing this snooping to Windows 7 and 8 through an upcoming KB update so you might want to uncheck those. This is how they are monetising a free OS.

First thing I do is disable all privacy-threatening options.

But recently still want to know where this little fella has come from in last two days:

I don't want this weather widget Microsoft, yet I can't disable it permanently. Anyone know how to?
 
I recently purchased a new laptop and upgraded 8.1 to 10.

A number of apps and software/bloatware couldn't be unistalled using windows!?
I read about complicated ways of getting rid but I just used CCleaner and it got the job done, apparently.
Is the software really gone?

After reading about the privacy issued I disabled everything and installed Spybot anti-beacon. Is this sufficient to protect from Microsoft data mining?

I'm not very knowledgable about these things so any tips and hints are appreciated.

Check the links in @Robin. 's post. Seems like they own your soul now (and mine probably also on W7) :D

There are quite a few programs which have popped up with allow you to disable all the spyware, I haven't used any of these but might be worth a try, just be careful when using independent things like these...

Windows 10 has denied me access. Plain and simple W10 is bad and MS is a monopoly of computers. We need to go to linux or something. Seriously, help me get away from windows.

Edit: I still need to play games.
 
Well, linux is coming to Windows. No reason to use Mac now.
