Hello fellow surface users, I currently using a Surface Pro 4 running windows 10. I am left-handed, so I write with my left hand. This presents a problem when writing because of Windows 10's task view function. If you swipe from the left edge of the screen to the right, task view shows up and...

I saw similar posts on the forums but not exactly the same and especially none with a pleasant solution. So here is my question: I am using Windows 10 on my Surface Pro 3 (should be independent of the actual device as long as it has touch support and an active pen). As you all know a left swipe...

Hi, I just bought an SP3 with Windows 10. What is the average battery life most users with similar device get for daily use? Mine is updated to the latest firmware already. Last testing I got is like these (25% screen brightness, wifi on, time is measured from 100% battery until it shuts down...

Hey guys, I'm new year (as you can see with my low post count haha). I am a power user in the windows world, but don't know what's causing this. Basically, the screen won't unlock. I can slide up the image with my finger, keyboard or pen, but can't type in my password unless I hold down the...

Hi, I have a Surface Pro 3 running Windows 10. I was wondering if anyone knew what combination of add ons I would need to run my television as a second screen. I'm after a way of sending video from my surface (but not specific apps so Chromecast etc is no good) to the television while...

Hi Folks! I have a Surface 3 128GB LTE. It came with Windows 10 pre-installed and have all the updates. I love it! I've really only had one problem. I use it as a tablet replacement and travel laptop, and one important feature to me is the maps app. Generally it works fine, except that on...

I just reinstalled my Surface Pro 4 and can't find or install the Surface App for the pen. I got the i7 512 gb ssd and wanted to partition it, so therefore did a clean install of Windows 10. According to Microsoft I should just have to search for the app in the store, but it can't be found. I...

I may be wrong here but I think that since I upgraded to win 10 the display on my SP3 seems dimmer than before. Where I used to set it at around 35% for comfortable use in normal indoor lighting I now have to set it at 50%. Anyone else noticed this? Is the display brightness curve different in...

Hi guys, I bought a MS SPro1 recently, with a power cover, but to be honest the battery life of the power cover is far from my expectations, it last less than 2 hours with 25% light and power saver mode (win 10). The CPU is no on high usage, I usually pin it to the front and sometimes it hits...

This question fits into more than one subcategory, so I apologize in advance if I posted this in the wrong section. In short, I want to be able to use Windows 7 on my SP3 with Windows 10. I assume creating a VM of 7 will be the most feasible method, but have some questions on this. I just...
