    1803 brightness bug issue

    You're not alone. I faced the same issue on my Acer laptop. Seriously, very annoying. Tried everything I could but it just wouldn't get fixed. In the end, I installed good old Windows 7 on it and now I can work on it peacefully. Just to clarify, I love Windows 10 but I can't stare at a screen...

    About those 'always connected PCs...'

    I liked these devices a lot. I will be watching this space to see what's coming as I know things will only get better going forward. Personally I like to see these as a new version of tablets (not smartphones). I hope they become affordable one day!

    Secure Boot Error

    Yes that's what I was wondering. Mine is a home computer. Anyway, it seems the issue has now been solved. Here's what I did. I disconnected the HDD and deleted all partitions on SSD and did a clean install (again). After installation completed, the error (device guard) showed up as usual...

    Secure Boot Error

    UPDATE: Well, it appears my desktop has now become useless. I can't install anything as my PC is literally a Windows 10 PRO acting like a Windows 10 S. I have no clue on how to proceed next. A bit of online search suggests to disable "device guard" but so far it has had no effect. Anyone got...

    Secure Boot Error

    Well I went ahead and clean installed W10 pro. Things were looking good and I could boot into both OSs with secure boot enabled. But now I ran into a new issue and Win10 was throwing me errors showing that all apps are blocked by some drive guard and it wouldn't let me open any .exe files. Long...

    Secure Boot Error

    Thanks for responding. So what you're saying is that its better to do a clean install? The secure boot was always on until I installed OS on the second drive. I was hoping if I could just reinstall the efi partition alone to fix this? To clarify, My SSD has the W10 Pro while HDD has the W10 S...

    Windows 10 S: Pros & Cons: Hardware vs. Software

    Totally agree. Bring office as part of the package and I will take it!

    Secure Boot Error

    Okay, so my desktop had windows 10 pro installed from usb using rufus sometime last year. The computer is now running latest FCU with no problems and I am running bitlocker on all partitions. My desktop has one Samsung SSD for the OS and a HDD for storage. I downloaded the latest iso the other...

    Issues with Notifications?

    I am having the same issue with my Lumia 730. I don't want to hard reset the device AGAIN just to get notifications!

    Should KEYone give WP/10M Fans Hope?

    I don't think its right to call this as a comeback for BB. Why? Coz its not BB OS. And they adopted android instead. Its just like Nokia who did the same. Its just a name game, nothing more!

    For Windows 10 Mobile users (What are you doing with your current device?)

    I got the 730 when it was launched. It came with the grey back when I got it and I later changed to the lime green option (looks awesome in my opinion). Its my secondary device and I have it updated so that I know I am not missing out on any new features(if any). Honestly, its better than the...
