My dad had an update last week and it removed the username field when logging in...
He was unable to login as only his password wasn't enough.
He had to format and re-install his computer.
Good thing he had a backup.

Hmmm, I got Win 8 as no one would sell me a Win 7 box so I graded to Win10 as soon as I could. Generally impressed, but if you have 7 there is no real need to upgrade. As with all versions of Windows there are WTF moments...

Yeah, but no other version of Windows made me do a complete re-install after an update

I've only had that happen once, when I updated an nVidia graphics driver without restarting. After a restart, everything was back to normal.

For those that don't know, some versions of W10 (my "Pro" version for one) allows you to defer updates for a few weeks, which is (obviously) a good idea to enable if you can, as hopefully any necessary fixes can be applied to the updates before they are installed on your machine.

My Wen desktop system periodically loses everything in the navigation pane (on my system) for windows explorer. Whenever this happens it also gets many of the icons screwed up. A restart always fixes it, and luckily a restart nowadays takes less than a minute.

I had the same issue a couple of weeks ago, problem was the NVIDIA video driver that had failed to install. At the next reboot, I could see the start menu, but it was unaware of mouse clicks.
A successfull installation/update of the video driver solved the issue.
How comforting it is to know all strategies that MS deploys to keep us aware that there was a problem somewhere!

For those who have not been with us (which you may interpret in a number of equally valid ways) for the past two weeks the puzzlemaster of the week presents the lyrics of a song from a popular beat combo or singer in the form of a code snippet. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is simply to name that tune.
Dim Actions As New List(Of String) From {"Find", "Be Loved", "Kiss"}
While Life And Wrongs.Count > 0
If DoThis(Actions(0)) Then
If DoThis(Actions(1)) Then
If DoThis(Actions(2)) Then
MsgBox("IN CAELO")
End If
End If
End If
End While

I suspect that it was a lot more Joe Walsh than Eagles.

He's not listed on the writing credits: just Felder, Henley, and Frey.
His guitar work make it work though.

Most of the album was more like a Walsh album -- in fact, most of the tracks are nothing like Eagles tracks.
