Don't just Re-install, Reset !

Have you used Windows 10? And the new apps dubbed "Universal Apps" which it offers ?
If you have, then chances are your have come across some problems. Recently I suffered from a problem in Groove.
Groove is my preferred music player and not only that I have even subscribed to the groove pass. So when the app blanked out on me, with all of my music libraries suddenly vanishing into thin air. I got worried. Thinking what might have happened and how to fix it. The only way out seemed to be re-installing Windows!
Luckily just when I was about to lose hope, a solution came to me. So, while messing with the settings app in frustration I found a way to reset specific apps. And in this lengthy and boring post, I am gonna show you guys (my tiny reader base) how to do that. So let's start:
  1. First Open the settings app and go to Apps settings.
  2. Now in the Apps an Features section search for the App you want to reset.
  3. Select the advanced option
  4. Now all you have to do is press the reset button and Viola ! Your App should be as good as new!

Well, I refuse to go through this ordeal, hence I have to wait for the movie to be available on the windows store (my preferred destination for movies and series) and enjoy the blockbusters the way they were meant to be enjoyed. So baby driver a return to the big screen for director Edgar Wright after his infamous exit from Ant-Man is one hell of a ride. Right from its first scene of our lead Baby listening to music while escaping from police. Shows what the movie is about. It is a heist drama wrapped in a musical. The concept is delightfully fresh and coupled with the excellent music track to the scenes, which are classic Edgar in style, m...
