    Please, can anyone help? The latest update has made my sticky notes huge! Now I am also finding the font keeps changing from normal to huge. Also the whole right side of screen has changed from before when it the tile mode and the snip it tools will not let me get a picture to show you. Start is now very small and way to the top, when I do the list of item the thing now puts it totally in the center of my screen. Thanks in advance!

    Are you having trouble with KB3189866 or KB3193494 or both? In Settings > Update and Security > Update History > you can Uninstall the problem update. Some experienced problems with KB3189866 not installing and MS rolled out KB3193494 to fix the problem. My HP Notebook has KB3189866 installed (25/09/16) and this comp has only received KB3193494 installed (25/09/16) no problems with either - go figure!!!o_O

    Thanks for the uninstall items, got most of them uninstalled except for KB3176936 which it would not let me uninstall it! Nothing has helped with the problems I am having.
    Any other ideas?

    As I stated in my Post, only 2 (TWO) KB's were causing problems. If you have uninstalled other KB's I would suggest you get Windows Update to reinstall them again. Updates are for your comp Security and previous ones were not causing problems. When you uninstalled the updates - did you Restart your comp each time to note the effect???

    Can you take a screenshot of your issue and upload the image on Imgur and post a link to your screenshot in your net reply so I can see what the issue is? Thanks.

    Please note the left side where the start button etc should be and not so tiny! Yes I can resize the sticky notes, but I would have to do that every time I logon, they open at about 2 1/2 times larger than normal that I had before.
    Thanks for your help

    Are you kidding me??????????? 1. it is not the size of icons on the left, I am sure your computer does not look like mine. When I switch from tiles to regular view those icons are not where they use to be, why? I have not a clue! I have changed icon size only to find every other icon is large but not those, so went back to normal.2.) the link you provided does not apply to windows 10. I went to the link only to find that out.
    2016-10-03.png This is what I get when I switch screens. It always on the left hand side in order. Yikes this is making this OLD lady mad!
    Now what? Thanks for trying!

    Just a suggestion - W10 > Start > Settings > Personalization > check through individual areas to see if adjustments can be made to suit your needs. Reset to Default???

    Sure, got fed up and took it to my local computer guy. I did not ask how he fixed it! Just thrilled I am back to normal.
    Thanks again for trying to help this old lady!
