    Windows Updows keeps bricking Surface 2

    I think I had multiple things going on. Yes the store was down and seems back up but since the Security Update KB4093114 installed yesterday, my apps took much longer to open. For instance Password Padlock normally will display a screen and within a couple seconds go to the login screen. After...

    Windows Updows keeps bricking Surface 2

    Not the same problem but my Surface 2 got an update today and now I can no longer download from the app store or open any non Microsoft apps. Tried cleaning the store cache and a few other ideas I found on the internet but to no avail. Hoping Microsoft just has an issue right now but find it...

    List of Apps no longer available in Win 8 Store

    So, I fat finger accidentally uninstalled MSN Sports on my Surface 2 last night. At first I thought no problem, I'll just re-download it from the store. Unfortunately the app is no longer even listed. So does anyone else want to share what apps they've run into that are no longer available? Two...

    Windows store no longer available for RT

    Where did you see that it is no longer supported? I fired up my Surface 2 last night and it was still able to get to the Windows 8 store.

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

    It's now used as a paperweight as well as my alarm clock.

    Surface Sales

    Cortana just notified me that Surface sales fell 26% this quarter. Should we now be concerned about Surface as well?

    Is Microsoft Listening?

    Like a magic 8 ball, my ZuneHD, Surface 2, and Lumia 928 say the answer is No.

    I keep coming back to Windows Phone

    I would love to return to Windows Mobile but without new phones being released on Verizon it doesn't look like that will happen anytime in the near future. I have moved on to iphone but miss much of what I had with the Lumia 928. The 928 is still my alarm clock and mp3 player. It would be to...

    News App

    Well I managed to find it by going through purchased apps. Apparently though Microsoft has removed them from the store otherwise.

    News App

    So trying to clear some hd space I noticed the News app was taking over 1.5 gigs of space. I was just going to delete it and reinstall to clear up some space. I deleted it but now can't find it back in the Windows Store. I've searched using the terms news, Microsoft, and msn but can not find it...

    Why no love for the Asus T102HA?

    I would say it is slightly faster then then the Surface 2. The only negative of this Asus is the screen resolution is only 1280x800 compared to the Surface 2's 1920x1080. So, if that is an issue for you then you probably wouldn't want this one. For the most part though you are going to see a...

    Why no love for the Asus T102HA?

    So not wanting to pay the amount for a Surface Pro right now I asked for an Asus T102HA for Christmas. I hadn't actually seen one but from the looks and description on the web it looked like a good replacement for my aged Surface 2 (RT). I'll have to say I'm so impressed with this tablet. It is...

    After 1 week with the 950 - Is Microsoft really comitted to a mobile OS?

    I've had the iPhone for about a month now and have not had a single issue with it. The battery is way better then my 928's ever was, I've never had an app crash, and they run very well. I also have a wide assortment of apps to choose from and there are daily deals on apps. I gave Windows phone a...
