UPDATE: Windows 10 Insider Preview update, (Mar 25, 2016), to Build 14295, seems to have fixed the multiple monitors/snipping tool issue. However, I still need to Unload Windows Blinds to run Camtasia Recorder.

Curious to learn of others experiences with this: Using 'Old/New Explorer' to disable the hideous Explorer Ribbon and show the classic Command Bar; there are many WB themes that won't render the command bar properly. Just wondered if others experienced similar or, if it's inherent or I'm missing something. Please share your thoughts.

[quote quoting="post"] I have looked all over the internet for an answer and a lot of people get this confused. Can you tell me if the setting I am looking for is in Start10, Windows 10 or Word? I drag files onto the Word Icon on the task bar to pin it to word so when you hover over word in the task bar a list of pinned and recent files appears. It seems I can only pin 9 files onto word. I don't care about the recent files but would like to pin more files to Word. D

[quote who="ASARussell" reply="9" id="3627256"] I'm sorry, but I don't see how setting up a new link to the admin tools will solve the problem of the right-hand panel width. Please explain your logic. [/quote] Doesn't solve it, it's just a work around. At least with a custom link, you can rename it what you wish. See previous screenshot.

[quote who="ASARussell" reply="7" id="3627226"] I have tried different themes. All of them exhibit the same problem, all of them except the Default theme. I was wrong in an earlier post where I said the problem doesn't occur in a virtual machine, it does occur there. Rebooting the VM causes the start menu to display the same reduced width right-hand side pane. [/quote] Seems to be intrinsic in Windows 10, maybe make a custom link to Admi

[quote who="ASARussell" reply="5" id="3627216"] Yes, the screen is set to 1920x1080, its native resolution, and I have set the Use large Icons off in Start10. The problem is not with the left-hand side of the start menu, but the right. I don't understand what changes when I reboot the machine. The start menu is perfect up to the time I reboot. I do not have fast start enabled. Thanks for all your help, I appreciate it. [/quote] Hmmm..., Maybe try a dif
