Oh my god… I fixed it by mistake…
[HOW TO FIX IT]
Let’s start with the obvious:
1) You don’t know what you don’t know.
2) End Users buy new $400 smartphones if they managed to turn off updates by mistake and now everything doesn’t work anymore with online services AND the device doesn’t propose a fix itself.
NOW THAT THE PRELUDE IS DONE:
Remember Right_Click>Desktop_and_Wallpaper ?
TURNS OUT that the MEANINGLESS “Layout” option means "do you want your desktop to ACTUALLY work, or do you want it to bug out like crazy? "…
I was basically DONE for today, I was about to just go do other stuff I had to do today, so I decided to just mess around with the wallpapers options for a moment, and BAM! FIRST DAMN THING I CHANGE FIXES IT!!!
“See? It isn’t so diffic-”
NO!!!
This should have NEVER happened in the first place!!!
I am WAY BEYOND what most of humanity know about how computers work, from the simple to the complex, and I had difficulties figuring this out!
Well,
it’s fixed.
There’s nothing more to say, except maybe that they could add one of those (?) / (i) Icons on the side of EVERYTHING which explain what settings do…
