  1. Getting a new computer


    I'm going to be switching to a new computer very soon. This current Windows 10 computer works fine, so in case someone comes along and wants to use it, I'd like to know how to completely remove all traces of me from this computer. I've got everything backed up to OneDrive, and have turned off sync, backup, and "Keep on this device." Can I safely delete stuff in C:\User\USERNAME\OneDrive without losing them in OneDrive proper? And how can I get delete my user account?Basically, I would like to have this computer be as if

    :)

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    How to Get Started with a New Computer


    You can't do any of this until you go through the initial login. After that the steps you listed are a good start though I use the builtin Windows Defender along with Malwarebytes Anti-malware Premium and Anti-exploit. #2 is key as far as I'm concerned. I backup every Friday using Macrium reflect Pro set for 1 full and 6 incremental.
