Yep, computers are a pain. I've recently spent a lot of time restoring mine from a previous backup, then slowly reinstalling things and fixing other things to get my computer back to how it was, then re-restoring it from the backup again after the problems reemerge.
At least I figured out the source of my problems. For whatever reason, whenever I tried uninstalling Monster Hunter Online, it would cause Windows to forget about a lot of other unrelated programs.
So my computer is all fine now, but RIP lost GTA saves.
Speaking of PCs, even though mine ran Skype, XSplit, streamed to Twitch, and did PUBG at 1080p60 Medium settings yesterday...it was running at full pelt and I cant help but wonder if a GPU upgrade is on the cards for this year.
A few specs first, to see what fellow tech heads reckon:
*DirectX 12 (Obviously)
Windows 10 Home - 64-Bit
CPU:*
Intel Core i7-6700 @ 3.40GHz (4 CPUs, 8 listed by DX12), actually runs at 3.7GHz.
Well, I suppose weather-wise, drizzly, humid, and foggy beats clear and freezing...barely. Granted, it's possible to get four seasons in a week or less where I live, so...XD.
Currently playing: Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr's Journey, Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana (Switch)
I've been happy with the weather so far but today, I had to experience -20°C for the first time this winter. It took longer than I expected. I hope it doesn't stay that cold.
And since people are talking about computers, I can agree that they can be a pain. My laptop hasn't been working properly for quite some time now. I restored my computer back to its initial state when I had a problem where it had 100% memory usage even when I didn't have any programs open. I don't have that problem anymore but I have three others. My laptop doesn't turn itself off correctly, the screen goes black but it's still on, I have to hold power button to turn it off. The volume jumps up randomly when I start watching a YouTube video or anything else that has something to do with sound. It's really annoying if I'm watching Twitch and it decides to buffer, the volume might go up in those situations as well. It also plays the disconnected device sound when I happen to bump my table. I blame Windows 10.
It's its, not it's.

Don't forget to paint your door frame with lamb blood before the last plague happens.
I hear red paint works fine too.
Too0o0o late, it's already happening, and it started with @SheldonRandoms FINALLY changing his Christmas avatar from last year! (even tho it still needs to be edited since TOAST)
An end of an era THESE has been.
I made Sheldon & Mr. Randoms back on Flipnote Hatena, now i'm a kangaroo mod that has a funko pop collection!
I'm not keen politics since that stuff is spooky, I'd rather watch SpongeBob over Fox News anyways!
I think you can still set active hours to help the update problem some. At least that is still in Windows 10.
Be yourself, no matter who you are!
For me, that's being madly in love with fictional characters. Plz don't judge.
Yes, my first anime was High School DxD. Don't ask or judge!

@Octane In the forums at least. Clicking on any story on the main site, just brings up a headline but nothing else besides an error. Nevermind, I just refreshed and checked again before posting this comment and it seems we're good to go.
