Unfortunately OneDrive web is the worst offender of them all regarding this issue. I get the same storage upgrade popup every single time I open it or refresh the page, even though I'm still at around 70% capacity.

My OneDrive is 70% full and it keeps bothering me about that with various pop-ups and notifications on the web, on desktop and on mobile. Is there a way to stop it? I know how full it is and the free storage is still enough to get me through for another couple of years. I've been using it since...

Is there a trustworthy site similar to apkmirror.com, but for Windows 10 apps? I.e. where I can download .xap/.appx files to install popular Windows 10/UWP apps that might not be available anymore. Specifically, I am looking for the old Facebook app from the Microsoft store, because the latest...

OneDrives sometimes doesn't sync the root folder, but syncs all other subfolders and files. Pausing and resuming doesn't help either. What else could I try, other than just wait for it to finally sync it?

I used to use the free version of Bitdefender, but their root certificate kept producing issues when trying to browse the Internet after a while. Might try it some day again, especially if I buy the paid version, but for now I will stick with Kaspersky. Kaspersky Free is pretty good, though...

How good is the built-in Windows Defender Antivirus in Windows 10? I'm currently using Kaspersky and considering switching to the built-in antivirus.

Seems like this is for closing the action center, but I don't think it affects dismissing notifications.

I noticed that Action Center dismisses any notifications older than 2 days. Is there a way to keep notifications indefinitely, or at least "pin" notifications that I deem important? I like to keep some important notifications in the Action Center until I don't need them anymore, but they keep...

I got this laptop and it became painfully slow. I will be upgrading the RAM and SSD soon, but was wondering if there is something on the software side of things I could also do? It's running Windows 10 v1909. My last resort (regarding the software) would be to do a reset through the Settings app.

I actually thought at first that I haven't unlinked it, but after Ryujingt3's reply I remembered I did. Sorry for the confusion. P.S. the forum didn't let me post this reply until I deleted an emoji from it because it "detected the reply to be spam". Weird.

Thanks! I didn't think of that

Is there a way to move all files from all subfolders of a certain folder into a single folder? I downloaded all my photos from my Google Photos, but there are separate folders for every day when a photo was taken (e.g. pictures taken on 8 June 2015 are in ...\Desktop\Pictures\2015-06-08). I'd...

Yes, that's the case.

Is there a way to see past devices connected to my Microsoft account? I need the serial number of one of my old Windows Phones, but I can't find the device nor its box.

Is there a way to continuously sync my Google Contacts with the contacts on the Outlook.com service (https://outlook.live.com/people/)? I know I can export my Google Contacts and import them to Outlook.com, but is there a way to automatically sync them?
