Its a personal choice, for me, I hope to stick it to the end as I like my 950XL running the way it is, and I hope to see a small "Phone" sized device with telephony running full blown Windows some time next year as its replacement. If it dies between now and then I will use my work supplied...

Not the concept, they work and work well, but they haven't succeeded as well as they should have for the simple reason that unless you have them on more than one platform, they are a bit pointless. I have an SP4, 950XL and an Xbox One X, without a thriving phone to have Universal app then you...

Just had a look the headline text is white, the sub text is a light grey

Not for me, the file names are light, the only thing I can think of to check is if you have a them set that would render the text dark.

I used to be a laptop user (Normally running in tandem with a desktop, then I bought the original Surface Pro, then a Surface Pro 3 and a Surface Pro 4 i7 with 256gb SSD and 8g memory (My current PC). I use this with the docking station, I currently have the following plugged in, 28 inch...

Working for me on my 950XL

Have been testing the new Clipboard and have to say its the best thing to hit Windows since OneNote and OneDrive. Having the ability to have multiple items in memory rather than just the latest item is great, along with the new sniping tool it has made a massive difference, and given I only...

Very good question. Just undocked my SP4 and you can bring up the clipboard with the virtual keypad. If you just CTRL V it will paste the last entry, but just to the left on the top of the keyboard is a clipboard icon, press this and it closes the keyboard and shows the multiple clipboard...

Checked and I have never had the desktop version on this PC.

Mine has been working fine until this update this afternoon and technically it's still working, just I have the desktop program V 8 instead of the UWP version 12 and this was from the MS Store. I uninstalled and re-installed and still got the desktop program, that I had NEVER ever installed in...

I can fully understand if I had Skype 7 desktop version and it got upgraded to 8. But I didn't have the desktop version installed, just the UWP, now I don't, tried un-installing and re-installing from the store and I still end up with the desktop version 8. No idea what the heck is going on...

Just got back from the Doctors with some Codine tablets, they apparently can make you go dizzy and get confused...….. So I think I may as well check for some updates on my SP4 whilst I am waiting for some pain relief. Skype gets updated...……………………. This morning I had V12.1815.210.0 on both my...

I just got an update from the MS Store on my Surface Pro showing Skype version 8.30.0.98 and Application version 14.30.98.0 I don't use the desktop version just the UWP and to be honest I didn't think I had the desktop version installed but it seems to be doing its own thing. It doesn't have...

That is what the icon is for. to bring up the start menu, so no surprise that is what happens when you press it...…. However you can change the way this behaves, if you go to settings and personalisation, then choose start, you can choose if the list of apps shows to the left of the start...
