    access files from an old windows 10 PC


    Hello, My windows 10 got corrupted and it kept blue screening. I built a new computer installed windows 10, but I have never been able to open those files from the old hard drive. The files have a little lock on the top right corner and says access denied. I don't remember setting any bitlocker up on it. I have tried to take ownership still doesn't work. I'm concerned with my current windows 10 PC is having lot of hardware issues lockups. I'm in process of building a window 11 PC but it's not finished yet. The current files I have on this computer is lot more and lot of pictures in a mirror

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    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

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
