    Help! Why is my upload speed so S-L-O-W

    Even pausing OneDrive it still only gives me 0.7meg up! And there's nothing sucking on my CPU it's bumbling along at 2-4% usage! I'm debating just flattening it and rebuilding... With Windows 10 (as 11 still has other problems) and just hoping that solves the issue.

    Fall Update has started to roll out.

    My work PC updated no problems, all done in about an hour... My home PC, however!, Took about 4 hours, and Windows has cleverly 'hidden' most of my app shortcuts from the start menu! It looks like a common bug, and Microsoft have acknowledged it's existence! One Bug fix they say, is to 'Open...
