What in particular would you like to be more usable?

McKnife > The user is an old timer 60+
He has used Vista for years.

Just anything that makes it straight forward
Non email login to begin with

He cares not for the cloud like most people

Hi,

Transpires I had a corrupt profile and couldn't save anything To the desktop and it was driving me nuts

First time ever using win 10 and I though the was no facility to save icons etc !

What a relief - now I'm happier

I didnt set this up from scratch it was an email login and I converted it to user

Anyway all sorted

Award of points later on a smart pone now

So classic shell and a new local user did the job thanks

John

Classic shell is OK but no need at all for it on Windows 10 in my opinion. The new Start menu can be used by anyone.
