Please undelete and preserve 'How do you edit the name of a bookmark? (MS Word 2013)'?
Searching for "microsoft word edit bookmark name" gives the answer as the first result returned, so "This question does not show any research effort"

I saw that one. I already flagged it before I saw this question.

Help improve my question, or move to StackOverflow?
@DaaBoss As an OEM you should be having this whole discussion with Microsoft.

Help improve my question, or move to StackOverflow?
"Although we could handle the error" - why don't you handle it then? That's much better than blindly changing the registry of millions of PCs. If MS thought the correct thing to do was to make that change they would have done it already.

That's exactly what alpha and beta tests are for. Do those before a mass rollout. And be prepared to fix and issues. Save the registry before you install your program and be prepared to back out the change if your users complain.

How Boolean operators fit with tags?
[windows-8] explorer is not the same as including and. See the answer. Number of results is different. It look like including and means the literal word and not an AND operator.

How to deal with questions regarding Windows 10 icon troubles
@Ramhound "the website it displays itself" does not make any sense. Again "do you have a source or explanation for this?" Your first comment seems to be guesswork :/

How to deal with questions regarding Windows 10 icon troubles
@Ramhound "The icon is suppose to disappear" do you have a source or explanation for this? If so then you could write an answer to one of the questions and we can close the others as dupes ...

Add a new off-topic close reason for questions asking for scripts
"Where possible, prefer editing questions to make them more suitable over closing them" is all very well, but if the question is like the example linked in Dave's answer (synopsis "I need to make a spreadsheet about matchmaking. I made a mock picture of how it should work. How do I do Table B" then I can't think of any edit to improve it. It has to come from the OP. I commented "... please show us what you've tried so far (including any code you currently have) and where you're stuck so that we can help you with your specific problem....". That's about the best we can be expected to do.
