  1. Adding a Windows 11 Pro laptop to a Windows 10 Home workgroup


    I have a workgroup with one stationary serving as the server and is running Windows 10 Home. I have added a tablet and another stationary that are part of the workgroup and are both running Windows 10 Home. I am looking at purchasing a laptop, and with the current deal, the laptop has Windows 11 Pro as the Operating System.We should be able to add this laptop even tho it is running a different version of operating system, correct? My understanding is that Windows 11 Pro has all the features of home and shouldn't be an issue?Thanks,Carol Wiegmann

    :)

    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
