    Gamesaves on Windows 10 laptop when game is uninstalled


    If I uninstall an Xbox game from my Windows 10 laptop to free up space, what happens to the gamesaves for that game? If I reinstall the game at a later date, do the gamesaves resync from the Cloud like they do with the Xbox One consoles? If they don't resync from the Cloud, where are the gamesaves stored on the internal drive in the laptop?

    :)

    Pre-loaded games won't uninstall


    I'm not really into some of the games that were pre-loaded into my PC but when I try to bring up the games from the Start menu and click on 'uninstall' it takes me to the control panel, and I don't see the games listed there for me to uninstall. Suggestions, please? Thanks! ~P

    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
