Windows 10: Dell # 3647 SFF desktop win10 1909 strange problems.

Hi, first post here.
I recently acquired a used Dell small desktop, my third one in a home network.

It came with a fresh install of win 10 home version 1909. Everything set up normally, and I've been using it for about a week, but I found 2 minor annoyances, that doesn't seem to have any effect performance wise.
The lock screen is set for windows spotlight, but never changes the photo or displays the info links about the photos.

The other problem is with my MS account. This PC was recognized on the account, but now it doesn't update the status, and tells me that "It looks like it's never been updated", which is not true, because it gets updates. The other 2 communicate normally with the account.
I've tried changing the setting on the lock screen settings to pictures and re-booting, then going back to the spotlight setting and rebooting again, hoping that correct the problem.
It seems as though these two problem are some how related communication wise with my MS account.

Remote Desktop Connection to System 7 Pro strange problem


Strange problem... 3 computers networked: a desktop PC [Asus M32BF - Windows 10 Home], a laptop [Lenovo B575 - System 7.0 Pro] and a trusty old desktop PC [Dell-D3000 - Windows XP Pro] running as a file server/backup.

Using Remote Desktop Connection, I can connect from all computers to the others EXCEPT from the Win10 PC to the Sys7.0 laptop I have tried disabling the firewalls but no help there. Also, file sharing works in all directions as well - 'Network' shows all 3 online.

I'm baffled - can anyone help or suggest some troubleshooting tips? Thanks much in advance - I appreciate it.
