  1. deleting my name from the Windows 10 startup page


    I am giving my old Windows 10 laptop to my granddaughter and am trying to make it as sterile as possible. I have eliminated the requirement to sign in

    with an email address and password now I would like to delete my name from the startup page when I start up the laptop. I would appreciate any suggestions I can receive to make this happen. Thank you!

    :)

    Changing device names and deleting devices

    Yeah, you can't delete old/retired machines from the "my grid" page. The only option you have really is to wait a few days then change how it sorts the list:

    Oh, and Mike is correct, by changing the windows "computer name" it'll change on the "my grid" page.

    Can't get GPU-Z to start with Windows 8.1 startup

    I'm not sure how to do that. Could you list the steps for a noob?

    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
