I already have issues with Windows 10. I am not a computer geek by any means but my computer is less than 6 months old. I upgraded to the free windows 10 on Friday and now my computer seems to have internet connection issues it never had before. Is there something running in the background that I can look for? Also the browser doesn’t support Java! I have found a work around for that, but as I spend 50% of my time playing Pogo games that was a huge hit for me. I didn’t like Windows 8 because it was so different from the previous versions. I, like most people, had grown very comfortable with Window’s software. We fear change haha.

Have you the “notifications” icon in the task bar at lower right? That should give you a mini menu where you can check things like network connectivity and apps.

On an Android device I spent hours trying to figure out why it was slow and using so much battery. Turns out the grand kids had several apps running I didn’t know had been installed.

Downloaded 10, installed it (twice) and went back to 8.

Said I successfully installed but kept: “The program can’t start because MSVCP100.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.”

Reinstall WHAT program? It never says.

Also, never could sync my Outlook email.

“computer seems to have internet connection issues it never had before.”

Go to Settings type in control panel and then check troubleshooting. Then check the proper feature you want to trouble shoot.
