Re: folders on windows10
Luke
Hi! Go in your downloads folder and make sure nothing is selected by pressing control + spacebar. Press the applications key or shift + F10. Then arrow down to group by, then Expand it and choose none. I don’t think you can prevent windows from doing this. If you can, I don’t know how.

Re: folders on windows10
Bill White
Hi, Heather. I recognize what is happening. If you just open the folder in Windows Explorer, you won't hear, today, last week, a long time ago. But if you open it inside the Mail for Windows program, then you will hear those headers. The only way to stop this is, take everything out of the folder, then put it somewhere else. Now that the folder is empty, go back inside your mail program, go back to that folder, and perform the operation suggested. In other words, Press the Application key, Arrow down to group by, and press ENTER. Arrow down to None, and press ENTER.
Now put everything back into that folder, and it won't do it anymore from inside the mail program.

Yes, thank you. But if I try to attach a file, it starts that whole thing again. It is from the folder that I was able to make not say this but, it happens now if I go to attach a file from that folder. Is that strange or what? Heather

Hi Heather.
I would have replied sooner, but I had to find the right folder to figure this out.
Get to the problem folder and open it.
With nothing selected, hit SHIFT+F10 to get to the context menu.
Look for Group By. It has a submenu, so open it.
Now you want None. Select that, and things should be better.
If you have any questions, let me know.
Have a blessed day and don’t work too hard.

Hello, when I updated to the latest version of windows, it changed my indexing for my files in my downloads folder. I had set to not say a long time a go or last week etc. But, it is back; very annoying. So can someone kindly tell me the steps for fixing this issue and how do I prevent windows from changing it every time I have a windows update? I remember the Microsoft disability desk changed for me and they forgot to send me the steps. Thanks for the help. Heather

Re: folders on windows10
Kevin Minor
Hi Heather.
Try this.
Get the problem folder the way you want it.
Now, while in that folder, hit ALT+V, Y, O
You’ll be in folder options.
Hit CTRL+TAB
Now I don’t remember if you have to TAB, but you want to apply this folder’s settings to all other folders. Windows will ask if you really want to do this. If so, press OK.
I don’t know if this will fix your problem, but if it’s what you want, it’s worth a try.
Have a blessed day and don’t work too hard.

Re: fixing partitions on an external hdd
Richard Kuzma
Here are the commands to use with diskpart
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
To open diskpart do a windows key and the letter r as in run Then type in diskpart and press enter Now the uac may come up and just do an alt and y to allow it. Here are the diskpart commands I believe you will use list disk this will list all the disk drives in the system select disk and the number selects the disk with that number list partition will list partitions on the selected disk only select part and its number selects the partition with that number shrink by itself will shrink the partition to its nearest four gigabyte available size dele part will delete the selected partition be extremely careful as these commands do not allow you to confirm them, so if you select the wrong partition by mistake and erase it is gone. Let me know if I can be of any more help

Re: Reseting PC?
Jaffar Sidek
Hi Clement.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
1. press control+escape. you will land in the windows search box. 2. Type "Reset" without the quotes, then press enter. 3. You must be sure to land on the "Get started on resetting this pc" button. Just tab or shift tab to be sure you get to that button. 3. Press the space bar on that button. You will get to another dialog and land on the "Keep my files button" whose help message will tell you that it will keep your files and delete the apps and settings already present and which you don't want. 4. Press the space bar, and your pc will get going. Good luck. Cheers!

Re: dropbox
There really is no need for one. Just set it up, choose your folder and use it from windows explorer. Everything will be accessed from the context menu. I do suggest turning on the smart sync though. -- Sarah Alawami, owner of TFFP. .
