[AccessD] Further to keyboard problem

[James Button]

Yep Win-10 is a source of many system changes -
Today ( post the latest update) I got a message that "An app default was reset"
as the original app would not handle the association.

Well I found that IRFANVIEW is no longer handling .gif files 

Well - when I checked, it seems to have no problem with the files.

Re system restore - etc. 
Note 
File History is limited in the length of filenames that it can handle, and when
it has not decided to just stop - it puts the backup copies it does create into
an unprotected folder - Oh! yes - and it is quite happy to 'save' sets of
outlook files while outlook is updating them! - so move a folder to archive and
you may find the archive save was done before the move completed, and the source
.pst was saved after the folder had been 'removed'

Considering the system restore facility - I note that every so-often my system
response goes to pitifully annoyingly slow as it reads through the entire OS
drive -to update the SINGLE image of the system it maintains.

I use Paragon to create an approximately monthly backup of the partition - and
then weekly/daily backups of things like email and wot I type-in myself.

Regards, and thanks for the detail

Oddly enough, the Win10 problems I've had to deal with were mostly a few months
after the upgrade. Haven't had any after a clean install. AND make sure it
doesn't disable your System Restore! It does this based on some algorithm in
relation to size of storage space but it does not inform you of "its" decision
to do so.

It was a new machine with W8 immediately upgraded to 10. Been using it for a few
months though.
