    Can't Install Downloaded Software


    Hey


    So I bought a new PC that came with Windows 10. I downloaded some apps and installed them without a hitch. A couple of days later I downloaded another software program that manages downloads from within China (Xunlei, if you must know), but it would refuse to install this program. Windows 10 claims that the software can't be installed unless it's from the Microsoft Store, and I have to switch from Windows 10s to Windows 10 to install the program. Funny thing, I'm not running Windows 10s.


    I went through the steps to switch from Win10s to Win10 (settings, updates and security, activation) but I don't have the option to switch to regular Win10. And when I manually go to the Store switch site, I don't have the 'get' option. Also, checking my version of Windows 10 just says that I am running Windows 10 Home. So why can't I install this software?


    Please help.

    :)

    Install Diablo 3 on Linux

    Just install PlayOnLinux? Why did they make step 2 and 3 of this "tutorial"?

    Anyway, looking at the supported software list for PlayOnLinux, D3 is a step in the right direction. Lack of gaming is a factor for a lot of people when deciding on an OS, if more recent games get ported it may help migrate them to their preferred choice.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)
