Hi there,
For a little background:
I have bought a 2nd hand PC from eBay and it came and was working fine. However, the original users documents, accounts etc were still all on PC. I wanted to do what I thought was a fairly simple task of resetting the PC to factory settings and wiping hard drives of all possible data.
I followed the step by step guide within settings recovery, and...

Revo Uninstaller Question
Thanks to the Revo Uninstaller Pro 4 (https://www.tenforums.com/software-apps/117772-revo-uninstaller-pro-4-a.html) thread on here I just bought it.
I thought that I would test it out and remove HexChat as I had planned to remove it anyway.
My question is regarding the registry entries it found. I'm wondering if removing them will break anything - surely not I'm thinking, but I see the...

Auto file compression setting on Windows 10 1803?
I was running my main drive down to around the 1.5GB mark and have been meaning to free up some space. To my surprise, I noticed it gained just under 1gb in space but I've disabled storage sense so thought it might have something to do with the pagefile or something.
Yesterday, later in the day, I noticed there were quite a number of files which shows those two little blue arrows on the top...

Laptop sometimes restarts when woken up from sleep.
Hey everyone,
I've had my Asus laptop (Windows 10, 7th gen i5, GTX 1060, 8GB ram and 256GB m.2 drive) for nearly 3 months now and I have a issue where I can put it to sleep but when woken up the screen stays black (not even backlight) and about 15 seconds later the laptop just restarts. This has like a 30% chance of happening, the rest of the time it works perfectly.

How to uninstall or deactivate Paint 3D?
A couple of weeks ago I did a system reset. There had been a few problems which Tweaking Com's software couldn't fix. I ran it a second time as suggested but that didn't fix everything. So I did the reset.
Since then I have two new surprises.
1. The system ignores my default program choice for opening jpg files. It used Photos until I uninstalled it. It now tries to use Paint 3D. ...

Outlook - new way of marking unread mail - coming up
Below seems to be a feature that will be coming up soon.
It marks unread mail with a vertical blue bar. As a result it increases the line spacing.
Not sure I will be happy about it and hopefully it can be disabled.
As for me: unread mail marked in bold is good enough.
(Indeed, there is no question here, just info, FWIW)

In one page it would have your location weather, relevant news, upcoming sports fixtures (we prefer football) and be a good at a glance page.
