  1. Installing Windows 10 on Windows 8.1 system


    I want to do a fresh installation of windows 10 on my pc where Windows 8.1 is currently installed. I have 3 partitions and want to install it in c drive with 185GB (where Windows 8.1 is currently installed) Do I need to delete ALL the 3 partitions or can I just delete and format Partition 1 or c drive and not lose data from the other two drives? What will happen if I delete all the partitions and what can I do to not lose data in other partitions?

    Installing Windows 10 on Windows 8.1 system

    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
