Every file and program on my PC now opens with Ink

After clicking something I shouldn't have, double clicking any file or shortcut tries to open it in Windows Ink. Even desktop apps. Changing default apps doesn't let me pick anything for .exe. How do I undo this?

Task Manager to open minimized when I log in

I like having Task Manager running to watch CPU, but launching it at startup puts the full window in my face. Can it start already minimized to the tray? Windows 10.

Laptop boots too fast to get into the BIOS on Windows 10

Need to change the boot order but the laptop goes straight into Windows before I can hit F2 or Delete. Fast startup maybe? Is there a way to get to the BIOS from inside Windows 10 instead?
