    Signature Change

    My signature is a bit....dated. I don't see a way to change it since the revamp though. Anyone have any guidance? Thanks.

    Shared Files/Folders Prompts Recipients to Login

    Evidently, it is a known issue. And MS's work around for their broken service is for me to convince family members to sign up for said broken service. :straight:

    Shared Files/Folders Prompts Recipients to Login

    The email "copy link" doesn't work either. I had been sharing files by texting family with the link, which in the past usually worked.

    Shared Files/Folders Prompts Recipients to Login

    Anyone else have this intermittent problem? I just shared a folder to multiple people via a link, I tried both Can View and Can Edit, but nobody can open view the files. I don't understand why this keeps happening. I just did this last week with someone and had zero issues.

    Site Keeps Thinking AdBlock is Enabled

    This only started happening a couple weeks ago. The entire windowscentral.com domain has been whitelisted for as long as I've used AdBlock (at least one year), but every time I enter WindowsCentral.com now it thinks AdBlock is enabled. Any clues as to why this started?

    Goodbye Cortana, Hello Alexa on Windows 10 PC from Acer, Asus, and HP

    For the simple fact that MS doesn't market Cortana AT ALL, just like other services/products which are now deceased, says a lot about Cortana's future IMO. It reeks of another MS throw-stuff-on-the-wall-and-see-what-sticks theory.

    Suggestions for another phone

    I picked up the Moto X Pure because it was inexpensive. Good phone for the price, but it had its flaws. I wanted to get the LGV30 for its photo-centric, audio-centric existence but my company only does Samsung and iPhones. I picked up the Note 8. I am VERY impressed. Almost everything about...

    Xbox One X Fan Noise

    That is probably abnormal. I've read several reviews on the X1X and all have mentioned how quiet the machine is.

    Snap(chat) stock is going down-- and this WP fan couldn't be happier

    I don't think it means that MS doesn't deserve their fair share of resentment. I understand the OP's post. For someone who openly despises MS, who smugly said "no" when MS offered to develop SnapChat's official app for WP/W10M and forced the take-down of 6snap, I understand the contempt in...

    Windows 10 is so bad...

    My 8 year old Gateway laptop works better now with W10 than the day I bought it was W7. Sorry about your bad luck.

    Is Nadella the main reason why Windows Phone is no longer the focus?

    It was a hard uphill battle that could have been won but the desire wasn't there with MS. WP had double digits in many countries and was climbing, slowly but still climbing, in the US to its top marketshare of 6%. Nadella didn't have the desire for the required long-game and I'm sure the...

    Possible retrenchment from MS

    I've been a member here since 2009. I've dumped thousands of dollars into MS products and services. I've owned a dozen different MS devices. I've been an Xbox Gold member for 10 years. I'm done, Microsoft. You created beautiful things to get me to fall in love and believe in what you were...

    Does iPhone X grab you?

    I was hopeful but very disappointed. There is very little appeal. I'm going to wait for reviews of the V30. It, or the four-hundred-dollar-cheaper S8+ will be my next phone.

    Finally leaving the 950 behind - which Android phone is comparable?

    I left my 950XL for Android also. Just understand that you'll be disappointed with pretty much everything except the quantity and quality of apps. PS - Get the Galaxy S8/S8+ for best phone over $400, the Moto Play Z for under $400 (if you're paying outright).
