    Click your Start Button, type snip and hit Enter - this will open the Snipping Tool or Snip and Sketch (depending on your version of Windows 10)

    Set Mode to Full Screen, then click New to take a screenshot

    Save that file to your Desktop and close the Snipping Tool

    Then in your next Post, click the second last button on the toolbar above your post to select that image and upload it to your post . . ..

    Hi Anthony

    Click your Start Button, type regedit and hit Enter to open the Registry Editor

    Click View and make sure 'Address Bar' is turned on

    Paste this into the Address Bar at the top and hit Enter

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders

    Please provide a screenshot of that Registry Editor window
