I got an update this morning. Rebooted and tray icon still showed 8.0.xxxx

When I uninstalled Acronis True Image, it broke something in VSS. I am to the point of trying some kind of reinstall. SFC /Scannow was clean. Reinstalling Paragon Backup, just stops Windows Installer with a Volsnap error. It could be something with the Visual C++ Redistributal but Windows 10 won't let me do anything about. Just another Windows fun and games. Reinstalling about 75 programs is not fun.

I uninstalled Paragon Backup because of "my" problem. Now it will not install. I found nothing in the logs. Is it possible that I cilcked on a window to block it. There is no warning about it being blocked. Where is the best place to look ?

Put the drivers on a usb flash stick

Firefox. Tried with IE and it worked. This is just crazy !!

Downloading Acronis True Image from their site was blocked. False Positive ? Get the same with all security turned off which really confuses me. Also sent to Acronis.

Some people just like to complain about everything. I won't update until it is cooked to well done. Some people on the Malwarebytes forum are unreal and sometimes just nasty. Anybody own a Volkswagon ? Now that is something to really get mad about. I don't need more problems with the 3 Win 10 machines I run ESS on.

Would you take a steak off the grill before it is done ?

While I restored an image to correct this problem, why should I trust any posts except from Eset to modify my registry ? Sorry for not trusting some posts here.

I have the lack of a check mark also build 319 Win 10 240

I am restoring a 3 day old image. First one with a ssd. Then will see what happens.

I did not have any malware removed or anything else done by ESS except signature update. My other two computers were not effected

The machine in question was ok yesterday and only had Eset SS definition update. No scans done no warnings. I installed Outpost Security Suite and will try a scan later. I read about this trouble for many years, but never had it.

Uninstalled ESS, no change. You guys are lookin in the wrong direction or some else just decided to screw up.

Don't forget this is Windows 10 so anything can happen. I doubt if Microsoft even knows how it works.

I tried to rebuild the icon cache without any luck. I have read about this problem over the years, but first time I have had it happen to me. I am going to remove ess to test.

Right click on blank desktop space >> Personalization >> Themes >> Desktop Icons >> Uncheck allow themes to change desktop icons. I may have had this happen even though I use a solid color desktop. There is also a bat file around to rebuild the icon cache.

How are you changing the folder view, step by step please ? On 3 Win 10 machines with ESS installed, only one is changing desktop icon locations. Please answer first question so I can test.

Thank You

Getting a notice "operating system not up to date". As far as I know they are up to date. Comments ?

Guess you will have to wait for one of the ESS techs. A driver would have created a blue screen. Keep those system settings because they may help in the future. Sorry I couldn't be of better help.

Go to Control Panel > System > Advanced > Startup and Recovery and uncheck the Restart box. For now leave the Small Memory Dump box checked. This will allow a Blue Screen error to show and write a fault log. Then go online and search for Blue Screen View. It will be on Nirsoft.com so you know you are at the correct site. Install it. During a Blue Screen crash a file is written to a folder that I don't remember the name at the moment. Blue Screen View can read that dump file and point to the cause of the Blue Screen. There are people that can understand a dump file, NOT ME, which can point to the program that caused the dump >it's not as easy as it seems<. There are other programs that can help. "What Crashed" ? is one. I had it installed, but it didn't help me. Any time I get a new computer or install Windows, I turn on that setting in System, because without it, no one has any chance to help. I only had one crash on this laptop in two years with 8.1 and the dump pointed me in the right direction of the video driver I installed. The Blue Screeh did not happen very often either.

I am running ESS and Windows 10 on three machines and never had a crash.

Maybe when the EU really gets into it, things may change. They forced a big change with Internet Explorer and media player. I have also said no to everything in custom install, but not inclined to sit watching a packet sniffer waiting to catch something.
