  1. End of support for Windows 10


    End of support for Windows 10 is supposed to start October 14, 2025, and my computer does not meet hardware requirements for Win 11 upgrade. So, I have a few questions:1 What would be recommendable as an antivirus/anti-malware software to use after support ends?? 2 Would Malwarebytes be sufficient to keep my machine relatively safe??3 Is there a free alternative to Malwarebytes that is GOOD??4 Is the Extended Security Updates ESU program for Windows 10 worth it?? It seems to be quite expensive.5 Any other suggestion/alternative would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance. AE

    :)

    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
