August 6 Information
Does anyone know when Windows 8.1 will be available to the general public? I checked the Wikipedia article; it does not say. Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro ( talk) 13:21, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Mirosoft.

Whenever I go to Youtube to watch a video it loads very slowly. This just started today and other websites load quickly so I don't think my internet connection is the problem. I did just update Adobe Flash Player and Reader so maybe those might be the problem? I'm using Windows 7 and Internet Explorer. Any help to fix this would be greatly appreciated. 2001:5B0:25FF:1CF0:0:0:0:39 ( talk) 23:31, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
- This is actually a common problem with Adobe Updates. Follow the instructions on this page to uninstall Flash; then, reinstall it and the problem should be gone (if that was what was causing the slowdown in the first place.) Good luck! -- Yellow1996 ( talk) 01:09, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
