    Sounds like you need a system cleanup

    Windows Key → right click the bottom of the window → All APPS → APPS screen

    Bury the cursor in the bottom RH corner of the screen → Charms menu → Settings (gear) → Tiles → Show Administrative Tools → Yes

    Exit the App & Start screen.

    Return to the APP screen → Administrative Tools → Disk Cleanup → (C:) → OK and allow to run

    Click "Clean up System Files" → (C:) → OK and allow to run

    Check all the boxes, allow to run

    Once completed → Restart computer

    Download the FREE version of CCleaner →

    Run the cleanup utility → run registry cleanup

    Download Google Chrome. It is by far the best and easiest to use browser.

    DO NOT use Internet Exploiter, use Firefox or Google Chrome.. Is airplane mode turned on by any chance? as this can cause internet connection issues with wi-fi. turn it off if its on and see how that goes. good luck.
