    Windows 10 question


    Hi


    I am thinking of building a new PC from scratch instead of using my laptop for games.

    But will keep my laptop still.

    Will take a while as buying bit by bit lol


    Just got a couple of questions ready.


    Once built...

    If someone gives me their Windows 10 disk to install and start up windows on a new hard drive , can you buy a new Key through Microsoft? so know it is genuine. Or will I have to buy from a shop somewhere a boxed new CD?


    Also I bought in Apr 2017 Office Home and Student 2016.

    Is that for just 1, or 2 pc's?


    thanks



    Shirl

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
