Does anyone have one please, I have to decide between the Microsoft or a new iPad

Just a thought. Most of the posts I see about this problem are quite old. Have you updated Windows10 to the very latest version.

You should have this one.

Does anyone use BT cloud? I bought this service to store photos etc and to free up space on my pc hard drive. I've put items on t he cloud but they are also on my pc, so no space saved!

Yes I use it. You don't have to keep copies on your PC. BUT if you wish to use your PC off line you will need both copies. The primary use of the cloud is to backup data or share data.

Good luck AnnieBach, I'm sure you will get on fine. I have upgrade two laptops from windows 8.1 to 10 without a single problem. Just accept that it is different and will take a little while to get used to. It is far more stable and reliable than previous versions.

Thank you pompa

pompa had to give in and load a new user - hadn't wanted to do as I had to reset up Outlook (only 3500 emails downloaded into the in-box). Hopefully sorted out now. Thanks for your help
