With Windows XP to 10 Home editions, if you have multiple users defined you’ll typically want to have shared data in a separate partition, because Windows Home editions have the simplified permissions management – so can give other users permission to read or even write the shared partition without giving everyone access to your private files and settings.

Could you explain more about the simplified permissions management in Windows Home editions?

(I wasn’t aware of a difference between Windows 10 Home and Pro for file or settings permissions.)

I presume this would apply?

When you stop folder backup for a folder, the files you were backing up remain in OneDrive and no longer appear in the folder. You will see a Where are my files shortcut in the folder to take you to its OneDrive folder location. If you no longer want these files in OneDrive, you’ll need to move them to a local folder on your PC yourself. Any new files you add to the folder on your PC will no longer be backed up (synced) to OneDrive.

My understanding is that changing to Draft View in the Normal template should affect any new document, but that for existing documents it’s still necessary to save each individual document in draft view even after selecting “Allow Opening a Document in Draft View”:

Making Draft View the Default View

So I think your Draft view on the Quick Access Toolbar may be the best workaround, unless someone can figure out why your AutoOpen macro didn’t produce the desired result.

Macros are defined here: Macro to open a new Word file in Draft View

And a SaveView add-in is suggested here: “Allow opening in Draft view” does not work

If you click “Learn more” under any of those three Connected Experiences categories, you get a web page which shows exactly which features fall under each heading, each with a “how-to” link:

Connected experiences that analyze your content (21 features)

Connected experiences that download online content (20 features)

Other connected experiences (30 features)

Connected experiences in Office

I keep them all enabled because I want access to Translator, Help, Focused Inbox etc.

Agreed. But buying and selling stuff is not criminal (yet), so not a police matter.

But having also the police look into what is going on, might not be such a bad idea.

I don’t think buying and selling stuff is ever a police matter in any jurisdiction (unless/until some special emergency legislation about rationing is passed).

I doubt whether version 2004 will be released before 1809 is EOL on May 12th.

Right now on version 2004, Windows Update Cleanup doesn’t seem to be working from either Disk Cleanup or Storage Sense 🙄:

I would try (1) first, then (2) if you’re still stuck on installing the version you want.

I think Apple’s “Wait to restart your computer until you’re finished removing all of the components.” may only be to save you the time of rebooting six separate times.

The only advice received on that problem is to un-check “Back Up System Files…” which to me would seem to defeat the objective of the Recovery Drive. Would like some additional ideas on this.

My suggestion was to do that first, but then to check that option, as that’s what worked for quite a few users at my link:

Try without checking the “Back up system files to the recovery drive” option the first time, and then repeat with that option checked: Can’t create a recovery drive.

Perhaps you could actually get prompted to select a drive that way?

… if you never want to report a problem or make a suggestion:

The Feedback Hub app lets you tell Microsoft about any problems you run in to while using Windows 10 and send suggestions to help us improve your Windows experience.

Sending a suggestion or reporting a problem can be as easy as finding feedback similar to yours and upvoting it. However, if there isn’t feedback like yours, then go ahead and create some new feedback for us. You can even attach some screenshots or recreate a problem to help us see what you’re experiencing.

I have a 2017 Surface Pro 4. Don’t know if that’s “older” or not. Anyway, just re-started it and NOTHING was displayed before the Welcome screen.

Surfaces use the volume-up button during power on:

1. Shut down your Surface.
2. Press and hold the volume-up button on your Surface and at the same time, press and release the power button.
3. When you see the Surface logo, release the volume-up button.
The UEFI menu will display within a few seconds.

How do I use the BIOS/UEFI? Applies to: Surface Devices
