1. Cortana Pops Up Randomly Running

How can I stop Cortana from popping up on my screen? Cortana randomly pops up at the lower left of my screen and is very intrusive. Other posters have recommended changing the three-finger swipe setting on my touchpad, but I do not have that setting. So far the only way I can stop Cortana from coming up randomly (and often) is to disable it.

1. Dec 27, 2015  Why does Cortana keep poping up randomly? I don't know what triggers it and have yet to zero in on some gesture or part of the screen that calls up the black box. But sometimes it just seems like it randomly pops up when I'm doing something and I have to X it. And his Cortana randomly opens up to the point that he can't type properly.

Cortana In A Loop?

I have successfully set up Cortana on two user accounts, however when I now try to set Cortana up on a user account I get stuck in a loop. I get the screen up that says 'One last thing sign in with Microsoft account. Enter old password one last time'. I do this then I am shown 'That way, I can keep track of what you want me to know'.Then I get ' Welcome back lets pick up where we left off'.
Then it just goes round in a never ending loop. I have created new user accounts to see if the problem was with existing accounts, but still no joy.Looking for answers to the problem on the internet, I have seen it suggested that something can be done by editing the registry, but I do not feel confident to mess about with the registry.I had thought resetting the computer, but am worried that I may not get Cortana to work on any accounts (it is working on two accounts at the moment)

Apps :: Cortana Not Opening / Working When Pressing Mic Button

I have a problem with Cortana not opening after pressing the mic button on the taskbar and 'Hey Cortana' does not work also. This is a clean install of windows 10 on a Lenovo laptop, I had no problems with Cortana before.

Stop Middle Mouse Button From Opening Cortana / Search?

Is there a way to stop the middle mouse button (i.e. click of the scroll wheel) from opening Cortana/search?
Things I've tried:
1. Searched Google. No useful results. The closest I found was that Windows 10 may be confusing the click of the middle mouse button as the 3-finger tap on the touchpad - which opens Cortana/search by the default. But I don't have a touch pad. I have the Toshiba PX30T (Toshiba Qosmio PX30t 23 inch Touchscreen All-in-One PC - Black/Silver (Intel Core i3 3120M 2.5GHz Processor, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD, DVDSM DL, LAN, WLAN, BT, Webcam, Integrated Graphics, Windows 8 64-Bit): Amazon.co.uk: Computers Accessories).
2. Tried re-configuring the middle mouse button in (a) Windows 10 Settings > Devices > Mouse & touchpad, (b) Control Panel > Mouse, and (c) my desktop's manufacturer's System Settings utility application (upgraded just now from their website). Interestingly, none of those three configuration tools had any control setting for the middle mouse button.
It is obvious that Windows 10 doesn't 'fully' support the wireless mouse that comes with my PC.
Is there a way to 'unbind' the middle mouse button from opening Cortana/search? For example, via the Registry Editor - maybe?

Keeps Randomly Hanging

Bought a new HP laptop with 8Mb RAM and 2Tb HDD. Installed Office 2016 and using Panda Gold firewall and AV. Windows frequently freezes when using various programmes and all I can do is remove the battery and disconnect mains power. Now I run without the battery installed as I need to shut it down and reboot frequently. What is causing this problem and how to fix it? Never had this problem with Win 7.

PC Reboot Loop After Update

I was using a machine with Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, and it was working perfect till the day I upgraded to Windows 10. First, I had a few problems during the update, probably due to the not updated (with the last drivers) nVidia card.
My specs:
-SSD hard drive as boot
-MOBO is Gigabyte GA-768XP-UD3P updated with the lastest BIOS from 2013, UEFI.
-a few other hard drives
-nVidia GTX 980 graphic card
Well, I finally was able to install the Windows system, but after the shut down and boot, I couldn't enter it. The computer started to reboot after a few seconds, sometimes I'm able to see the BIOS screen (but pressing any button doesn't work) and then it boots again in a few seconds.
After some search online, I understood it could be a problem of the BIOS that was corrupted (why if it worked till the day before??). I used a very strange system to press the power on button and put down and up the PSU for 3 times, then when I rebooted again I saw the screen with 'The main BIOS is corrupted and we have to recover it from a backup'.
The setup of the BIOS from backup worked, but with 'load optimized default' I then got a Windows 10 blue screen error ' :-( INNACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE'
I then entered again the BIOS and changed some info like AHCI, UEFI only, etc.
Then, after a reboot it worked and I could enter WINDOWS 10 finally.
I thought I was OK, then I tried a reboot and it worked. BUT, when I tried to first shutdown and then boot, again I went inside the BIOS reboot loop!!

Automatic Repair Loop

I'm trying to resolve an issue with a Windows 10 desktop, HP small form factor purchased with OEM Win 7. Windows Update suggested Windows 10 and now the machine boots to the automatic repair screen but there is no mouse or keyboard function where the option panes appear.
While I did purchase the computer myself originally, it was purchased for the use of my church group, and two weeks ago came under the care of my co-deacon and friend. So, let's just say there is no recovery media now for Win 7 or Win 10. I can create a recovery disk here at home from one of my local Win 7 systems, but not sure if that will work or not.
I'd be perfectly happy to un-install Win10 from the machine, but there doesn't seem to be a way to get to the recovery partition... all F-key options have been tried.
This is a Core Duo processor.

Installation :: Boot Loop After 75%

I tried to update my Windows 8.1 installation on my Thinkpad T61p to Windows 10. It went smoothly until it finished copying the files (75% complete). It is now rebooting in an endless loop (reboot -> Windows logo with spinning circle -> black screen -> Windows logo with spinning circle -> 75% complete message -> reboot) and I don't know what is causing the problem. I have installed the latest BIOS and tried various changes to BIOS settings with no effect. Does the installer write any kind of diagnostic log that would tell me the reason for the reboot loop?

Automatic Repair Loop?

So when I'm trying to log on, my computer does the whole automatic repair thing, but constantly loops. Now, I know this has been notified before, even for windows ten, but it seems I just can't fix it. All the solutions on the articles I've seen don't seem to work .

Startup Loop - WDF Violation

Installed Win 10 about 2 week ago. Installation went smoothly.
Started up PC this morning.
Blue Screen with sad face 'windows encountered a problem as need to restart - well restart for you'
I then shows a screen with 'Starting Automatic Repair'. Then back to the 'windows has encountered a problem'
Nothing but a perpetual loop
F8 does nothing
F2 and F12 work but provide no remedy .....

How To Get Upgrade Out Of A Repair Loop

Although, the upgrade this morning initially was successful - it did reboot into Windows 10. When I restarted the machine, it's now stuck in the setup repair loop. None of the options seem to work, even if I try and have it reinstall windows while keeping my files, it still restarts and goes back to the setup repair. I really don't want to do a clean install as I didn't make a backup of my files (which I will always do from now on).

PC Goes Into Restart Loop After Updating?

How To Get The Picture Gallery To Loop

I recently upgraded to 10 last week and I noticed that when I am clicking through my picture gallery, it stops at the last photo and doesn't restart from the beginning. In Windows 7 and every other version, you were able to loop through photo galleries.
This isn't a huge deal but I reference my photos a lot when I am doing work on my pc and it's kinda annoying to have to click out of the slide viewer and then scroll back up to the first photo in my folder in order to start over.

Computer On Constant Loop

So i needed to factory reset my new desktop for reasons unneeded and overnight my parents switched it off and now its on a constant loop landing on 'An operating system wasn't found. Try disconnecting any drives that don't contain an operating system. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart' and loops again.
I made a USB Drive containing Windows 10 and it'll go to the install screen but when i do try to install it it will tell me to restart my computer and try again. Going to the repair area, trying to reset it, it will tell me both 'The drive where Windows is installed is locked. Unlock the drive and try again' (when keeping files) and 'Unable to reset your PC. A required drive partition is missing' (When removing everything). I have no system restore point since its new either and startup repair finds nothing.

Stuck On A Boot Up Loop?

After installing windows 10 on my asus laptop yesterday, last night I tried to wipe my laptop by resetting it, i left it at 1% before i went to bed and this morning it was still at 1% so i did a force turn off and when i turned it back on , it got stuck in a boot up loop where it would just keep on restarting [URL].
Safe mode doesn't work, nothing works, except the power button. What should i do? i didn't want to bring it to asus because the warranty expired 2 months ago.

Infinite Restart Loop?

I was fresh reinstalling my windows 10 onto my HDD as I encountered an error preventing me from booting the computer up, in the end I found it was my new GPU causing this error (a dead GPU?). So now my computer shows an error message: 'The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an error during installation of windows'. I looked this error up and it told me to press shift f10 to open a console and to type regedit in and to find status on local machine, changing the number from 1 to 3. I did this supposed fix, however, now my computer is in a infinite restart loop, displaying the windows 10 installation at 64% and then restarting again...?

Randomly Wakes Up From Sleep

Cortana Pops Up Randomly Running

So as the title says, every now and then Windows 10 randomly decides to wake itself up from sleep. It doesn't happen at any consistent time, some days it stays asleep until I actually turn the PC back on. Using powercfg /lastwake just gives me a wake history count and doesn't provide any information.
I can't figure out why this is happening. I've tried googling it and have found similar complaints but no real solution. It's not hardware that is waking it up and I have already disabled the 'allow wake' setting for my network adapters in device manager.

Resizing Text Randomly

I have had W10 for three days and it has been sending me mad. The text has been resizing and windows closing randomly. Particularly bad when typing. Finally found the cause. The new feature which allows two finger use on the mouse pad is a nightmare while typing. My wrist or fingers touch the pad briefly and then when another thing touches it then all sorts of things happen. So as I typed the text kept changes size. I found myself changing the text size back every few minutes.
It took me some time to find the problem and disable the two finger ability. It might be nice to have if I am editing pictures but it is very difficult to get too. The control panel is difficult to find. It is not in the menu.
I seem to have spent most of three days disabling everything in W10. I seem to have paid for something which is useless.
