    How to get Windows 10 PRO to see both CPU


    I have an older Dell T5500 workstation I am using as my desktop. I am running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit Version 10.0.18362 Build 18362 and have 2 Intel Xeon x5675 (@ 3.07GHz) installed. When I go to the device manager it shows 12 cores but Task Manager only shows 6 cores and 6 logical processors. How do I get Windows 10 to use both CPU?

    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

    I suggest you to download and create an installation media for Windows 10 Pro form the link provided below:

    Download Windows 10

    After the installation media is created, suggest you to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro from the installation media. When the upgrade asks for product key, enter the product key purchased for Windows 10 Pro. If it does not accept, suggest you to skip the activation

    • Press “Windows key + R” and type “slui 4” and press Enter.
