    Dan, Will the Surface Earbuds support multipoint connection? I need to be able to connect to both my phone and my PC simultaneously, so this is important to me. Thanks! Rich

    Is this Damage covered under warranty?

    I don't even see what you're talking about, but the question I have is this: Is it bulging out, or indented? If it is bulging outward, I would take it to the store, because they have had issues with battery bulging (which can be a precursor to an explosion or fire), and they replaced my SB1 with...

    Must-have Surface Book 2 accessories?

    I have one of these cases that I used on my Surface Book for almost two years, and now it is on my Surface Book 2. It does show a little bit of wear along the edges, but my Surface Book looked like it just came out of the box when I took it off. I love the look of the case, and the protection...

    New to SB2 Forums Thanks to Microsoft

    I have to say that while I have had problems with the hardware that Microsoft builds, I still love it, and I have been mostly very happy with their customer service. I started with a second-hand Surface Pro, then later a Surface Pro 2, and a Surface 2 for my wife. On the day that the Pro 3 came...

    Cortana App vs MS Launcher Cortana on Android

    I'm new to Android - Less than a month in. I tried uninstalling the Cortana app and using the launcher, and several things don't work. I'm also frustrated that I can't figure out how to get Cortana to read texts in the car, and when I dictate texts to her they fail to send. I'm hoping they get...

    Perhaps. But not available on Verizon, so it's a brick to me. 😉

    How do I best Microsoftize my new Pixel 2?

    I've been using Microsoft phones for probably fifteen years - Windows CE (if I remember right), Windows Mobile, and Windows Phone. Last night I got tired of waiting. My nearly 4 year old Lumia Icon (wow, just looked up the launch date - the day I got it - and I didn't realize I was THAT close to...

    Windows 10 build 16273 discussion (Redstone 3, Fast)

    Here's what I want to know, and don't see in the blog post: Did they fix the problem that caused Visual Studio 2017 to literally not work at all in build 16257? After days of trying different workarounds, and suggestions from Visual Studio community, I ended up resetting 16257, reinstalling VS...

    Windows 10 build 16257 discussion (Redstone 3, Fast)

    Well, with the problems that 16257 caused me, not just the printers, but also Visual Studio, I went back to 16251. I didn't have a single problem with 16251, but as soon as 16257 came out, I started having problems, some of which I didn't notice right away. I'm still reinstalling stuff...

    Windows 10 build 16257 discussion (Redstone 3, Fast)

    Seems like this build broke my printer queue for one of my printers. I can't print from any Office applications to my HP M201DW laser printer. I can print from other applications to this printer, and I can print from Office applications to my Canon MX922, but not from Office to the HP.

    Windows 10 build 16257 discussion (Redstone 3, Fast)

    I had hoped that this would fix the bug where right-clicking anything on Edge does not bring up the context menu (or, more accurately, flashes it really fast, then it disappears). It didn't.
