    As a time saver, go to your start menu (little logo in the bottom corner). Find the app you want on the desktop, left click and drag it to the desired spot. Easy.

    Hi Brian, thank you, I like your videos. Can you explain why in one of your vids you have a blank icon on your desktop, think it's the one about Win 10 dos troubleshooting. Only I have the same issue, every time I load or replace my Aomei Partition Assistant the desktop icon its blank, yet the Start and taskbar Aomei icon is perfect, the moment I put this particular icon on my desktop, it goes blank, I have a Samsung 4k monitor, Win 10 pro, and NVidia GF 780 graphics card. Best regards pete

    Always on point. Helps newbie's alot without getting them into to much trouble, lol................ As always nice vid Brian............ AJ. Do like Matt Moore's suggestion also for sys32 runner applications. That way when they drop off as time goes by, you can just dump them.

    I don't even know why I watch many of Your videos, as most of them nowdays are windows 10 and I don't use that. I guess I just like Your smooth voice and find Your videos relaxing and entertaing to watch. You are really good at explaining things in a simple way. Somehow I just really like Your videos even if I dislike windows 10. :)

    𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗕𝗥𝗜𝗔𝗡 Do you have any fix or solution on the issue of DVD player's not playing on Windows 10?

    • @SsiolisP
      @SsiolisP 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Britec09 It was fine until I was forced to reinstall the newest Windows 10 edition (anniversary or whatever its called) due to a virus inflection.
      I went through my stack of CD's and DVD's.
      Apparently my DVD Drive will only read CD's (photos /music) and application software/programs.
      It seems that it will not read DVD's (photos/videos) for some odd reason!
      Sorry for my delayed reply and 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗞 𝗬𝗢𝗨 for your immediate response.
      It is much appreciated regardless if there will be a solution to this issue or not.
