AMC, Facebook and FB Messenger no longer work on Windows 8.1 Phone and Windows 10, 1511.While console emulators can no longer be downloaded from the Windows Store, you can still run them on Windows if they’re available to download elsewhere. Universal Emulator in particular is also available in a browser based version that’s independent from app stores and even works on the Xbox One.

Once installed, Click the pie chart icon in the Hidden Icons of taskbar to change settings:
Location determines your sunset time all year long. Appears easier on my eyes.
Cannot display difference in screen shots however...

Syncing takes over 5 minutes with 5 errors and 3 appointments missing.
I also find those TWO DAY HOLIDAYS annoying, especially on ELECTION DAYS...
The Synchronization was reporting an error saying that it could not connect
So I removed my Outlook.com account (Windows) from app and reinstalled it.
M$ may have changed the URL for some reason...
The Facebook and Webcal accounts are necessary to get Facebook birthdays.
The MS Calendar is even worse! No Facebook accounts even listed.
So no birthdays on my Windows 10 32 bit laptop
PostImage pictures can get lost when site goes down...often recently
Also had problems uploading GIF pictures created with PrintKey 2000.
Photobucket seems to upload pictures faster, even with annoying popups.
The FIRST thing you are greeted with is a full screen popup ad...I WILL NEVER PAY to get rid to them!

Took me 10 minutes to upload ONE PHOTO and get the Direct Link.
Go ad free for .99 cents or $9.99 a year
99 cents a month is cheaper than $9.99...
The Photobucket App can share with Facebook and others, but no Direct Links for Forums or Blogs
Postimage.org is way faster and does not even require a log in:
After a picture is saved, you have lots of link options:
Lots of ways to link! Click right end to copy to clipboard. NO ADS!
This picture took SECONDS to load through an Open File box:Terms of Use
What cannot be uploaded to Postimage.org servers:
Copyrighted images if you don't own copyright for it
Violence, racial intolerance, or advocate against any individual, group, or organization
Any other images that might be considered illegal in USA or EU countries

Automatic/programmatic uploads are not allowed. If you need image storage for your app, please use Amazon S3 or Google Cloud Storage. Violators may be hunted down and banned.
Goodbye Photobucket!
Also there is a free screenshot program available here: Setup.exe or Setup.zip
The Screenshot App can take a region with PrntScrn key, window with key + Alt or full screen + Shift
Click Open Image from File to upload the saved screenshots in a folder you designate.
After the upload screen displays the image, click the upload arrow and the Direct Link will display:
Click Copy to copy the direct link inside of img brackets

When I see this screen I know it will never play...I do not CARE about Isle Royale either...
2) Notifications HOG the Action Center and seldom run!
3) All articles that DO RUN include ADS or their TV shows first...
REMOVED FROM laptop! Works on my Phone

Went to settings when ads started popping up. Upgrade and Remove Ads wanted another $1.99
Do not Pay! Reinstall it if you already own it!
Went To M$ Store after uninstalling and downloaded Ad Free version I already owned:

Facebook failures took a big hit on the desktop's reliability:
Now it wants to install Messenger as a separate app:
Messenger app comes up when I click people listed as circle pictures on right, kinda small to see :
Some of the people I have not seen listed for a while. 2015 dates mean nothing to me...
Facebook app also wants to add notifications to Start menu, but Action Center should already do that:
I will wait to see if I need to do that, but by then it may be gone...

After weeks of waiting for Microsoft's Calendar app to sync birthdays and no way to add Facebook:
The list of accounts was PUTRIDLY small so I looked for another app that might care.
I tried One Calendar app to see if it could hook up better and it had more accounts available:
Microsoft new or old accounts are listed along with the ones shown above.
How to add facebook birthdays to One Calendar?
Here are the accounts added. Facebook added the Webcal account too.
One Calendar installed quickly with one small problem setting Facebook account:
Hmm, apparently Facebook posted the warning so I had to enlarge One Calendar to allow it.
Well it can be stretched out to full screen or...
Made pretty flat:
Pros:
App displays all Facebook birthday notifications for friends and family.
Appointments show up on rotating tile in Start menu.
App sets up pretty easily with the caveat that user account names and passwords are required...
Cons:
App has settings that require money to get like colors for events for $4.99
Startup nag screens about features or lock screen setup may appear.
Otherwise get used to seeing green!

Searching the Windows Store found it on Windows 10, not my phone store version:
When the app is opened, it lists current shows available and clicking on them lists shows.
Note: You must still log in to your cable provider with email name and password!
Verizon is a PAIN to log into at the AMC web site because it takes you to Verizon.
May never go back! At least this AMC mobile app signs you in within the application.
Fullscreen mode works well! Better than the video player on the web site:
The pause button shows up mid-screen when the mouse is moved or on bottom. Put up top...
I saw a few complaints about the app crashing, maybe they did not have Windows 10?
The full screen view leaves white bars top and bottom. Mouse never hides.
Progress bar at bottom (hidden above) allows mouse to set earlier or later position when not in commercials.
Commercials must play before going to later parts. Going back skips ads already seen.
Pause sign comes up in center of screen and progress bar on bottom when mouse is moved

OMG it says time remaining is greater than ONE DAY! Well now it is down to 22 hours and 15 seconds...
The application also has a Health tab shown below:
I apparently have plenty of time to look at it!
The defrag process color legend is on th Drive Map tab:
Edit Settings button allows the user to change to old style colors or customize their own.
The File List tab displays a list of fragmented files with number of fragments:
The list does not allow file selection or scrolling so I used the scroll bar on right.
So far it has been an hour and a half with 1 hour to go at 56% complete.
Finished in 2 hours and 9 minutes. Drive is still 15% fragmented! Fixed only 3%
Of 509 fragments, only 31 are left affecting 8 files at 8.2 Gigabytes.
Statistics tab shows a summary with defrag time after first run and allows drive benchmarking.
Month drop down box allows reviewing of longer time periods with more runs.

And the new Android Microsoft App Store is BIGGER than the Microsoft Store!
The new app might not make sense until you realize just how many apps Microsoft has on Android — you can take a spin through the full list here. It’s extensive. It’s almost odd to recall how big a splash bringing Office to Android and iOS once was.
