Cannot change lock screen Image in Windows 8
location: microsoft.com - date: June 10, 2013
I cannot change the lock screen in Windows 8. I do not have the Pro version so I cannot use  the gpedit.msc command. I have the registry key but it will not allow me to delete or modify the (Defualt) value to other users. I have run the scan and there are no issues. Oddly if I restart the computer the image I want appears but if I power it off and then on the defualt image remains. Any suggestions

How to return to Windows 8 Music App Home Screen
location: microsoft.com - date: May 2, 2013
When browsing around and playing various music with the Windows 8 Music App I can't seem to find a way to return to the home page / startup page quickly.  What I end up doing is hitting the back arrow numerous times until eventually I end up at the home screen.  It may not seem like a big deal but it's really becoming annoying!    Is there a way to quickly return to the home screen?Perhaps a hotkey?

Using Windows8 the ability to right click > print, seems to have removed. This was great in XP for printing straight from the screen. Control>P, doesn't always work either, ideas anyone.

How can I have Windows 8 videos as my screen saver?
location: microsoft.com - date: May 12, 2013
Original Title:Windows 8 Videos in Stores   Hi!   This is probably a very odd question, but I was wondering what kind of feature or whatever it is the Windows 8 computers have, where they show a "Try New Windows 8 etc.", clips. You know, almost like a screensaver. They also appear on a Surface tablet if I remember correctly.   These videos, why are they only showing up in a store-computer and not in mine? And is there any possibility for me to have a video like that on my computer too? I think they are cooler than these screensavers in Windows 8, hehe...
