Actor: Was this computer originally a Win X machine or an upgrade from Win 7 ? I had it running on Win XP before installed window 10... I believe that XP was the best and most stable one they put out. I was running into problems with equipment and programs that no were no longer going to be supported by XP. Win 10 Pro promised the backward mobility I needed to continue using these programs, etc.. But now there so-called SECURITY UP GRADES seem to be causing the problems. I personally believe it is nothing more than a scheme by Microsoft. I have tried calling into Microsoft before and after waiting for 2 hours I can't hear or understand the English speaking trash they have working for them.I have a friend that is coming over Weds. that can hear on the phone … so we will probably try calling into Microsoft. I have already decided if thus a bunch of crap, I will certainly file a complaint with the FCC and FTC as I have advised others to do with all of these large corporations.. I agree Gary. Windows 10 is terrible. You want to get together and smash our both at the same time? LOL. You don't have any Tannerite do you? It might be more fun than using hammers. Garry-

Still running 7 Pro here and will as long as I can. My previous operating system was Windows ME. I don't like change... Didn't know about requesting someone having English as their first language.
Eh...wot?

Yes it depends on what state you are in presently.Some states have made it law and others have not. But it is also in the works at the federal level at this time

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...ows/a398070b-94a2-45d9-99ab-1e414e74cfb3It took a few tries because the order of action was key. Canon MX 920 series printer, wireless, giving various error messages (offline, being used by another printer, error) and would not print an email, a Word document or anything from the Internet. But still LOOKED like it was there under Devices. But in Device Manager, only present under Print Ques, not it's own category of Printer (which is where it was when it was fixed). I "removed device" under Devices --Printers & scanners (start menu --> settings --> devices --> printers & scanners --> select Canon MX 920 series printer -->REMOVE DEVICE.) Then --- this is essential -- I restarted the computer. Go to Settings --Devices -- Printers & Scanners...click "ADD printer". First it said "help me find an older version" but a second later it popped up with MX 920 Series. Added printer. Looked in Device manager -- now there was a category that said "Printer" and there it was. Printed a Microsoft document, then an email. Works. Fingers crossed.

LOL last time RESTORE IT TO PREVIOUS DATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh well I tried.
Or just (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) can it and go to Walmart spend 250 and all is well You only have a TEN day period to go back to a previous version or so they say on their web site … Microsoft. I just spent $100, I didn't have to spend on this printer, when it probably wasn't the printer that was bad in the first … It is Microsoft screwing with everybody. Garry- Have you tried it yet. I think mine was longer than 10 days

I have a friend coming over tomorrow, he can hear on the phone, where I can't. I hope we can make contact with Microsoft at that time to see, to if they can do anything about it. I will report back at that time. I do thank all of you that have put forth possible solutions. My computer is only 4 years old and it has high performance components. So they shouldn't be out of line and might help with adjustments. So we will see.
Thank you again.
