    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

  3. Downgrade from Windows 11 to Windows 10

    Ok so when you click on the "Go Back" it will downgrade to Windows 10. I highly suggest you to do a clean install of Windows 10 because sometimes , the "Go Back" option can bring some damaged files etc... so a clean install will make the pc faster and you will have a new copy of Windows :

    Make sur you have a license !

    So here are the steps :

    1. Go to Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)

    2. Download the media creation tool

    3. Follow the steps

    IMPORTANT : MAKE SURE ALL YOUR DATA IS BACKED UP!!

    Either when you click on "Go Back" or you downgrade as I showed you before , you will lose everything in your pc since your drive will be wiped and windows 10 will be re-installed

    There is an option in the installer that lets you keep apps and files , but I highly don't recommend it .

    So yes , you will have to re-install all the enterprise apps and the client-versions of the apps I listed before. Same for the microsoft Office.

    Can i downgrade from windows 11 to windows 10 without losing data?

    Upgrading to Windows 10 from windows 7 and losing internet connection

    When trying to search for a driver on that motherboard, it doesn't say Windows 10 on it. My suggestion would be to get a NIC card of some sort that is known to work with the OS (most).
