Hi Bud, I'm certainly no authority of any kind on Windows 10. All I can assume is that it is normal for Windows 10 to bring you to some focus after you log in, and after all the normal boot process transpires, speech should stop and you would be focused on some control somewhere. At that point, I assume that you could just use the Windows-M key combination and focus should land on the icons on your desktop. Now, if this doesn't happen, then it makes sense to me that some kind of alternate menu system of some kind was installed and that the above key combination has been set to do something else. What that could be, I really can't say, and I am sorry. smile

I can just hear you guys saying"Oh no, is he here again!" Seriously, I do appreciate your patience and interest. This doesn't boot to the desk top. I don't know if it's supposed to but it never has. I would get to it from file manager which has now disappeared along with several things that were on whatever you call it where it goes to at start. I can get to the desktop by typing it in Cortana. The desktop has 20 items but none of them are this pc. I can do windows x and get to the various disks as you said but don't know how I would get it on the desktop. I should've taken this off line but wanted Rod to see it also. So this whole setup seems to be kind of weird. I'll keep checking around and get it figured out eventually I think. Thanks again Bud.On 9/19/2015 12:45 PM, net bat via Talk wrote: > windows e will open the list of drives when focus is on the desktop. > if this pc icon is not on the desktop then > open the start screen and search for icons. then look for show or hide > common icons , i think this is what its called you can put this pc > ,which is the same as the computer icon back on the desktop. > > -----Original Message----- From: Don H via Talk > Sent: Saturday, September 19, 2015 12:34 PM > To: bud schwab ; Window-Eyes Discussion List > Subject: Re: finding thumb drive > > Another way to find the drives is by hitting Windows key X and then > downarrow to disk management.
