Windows 10: My Windows 10 experience

Resisted as long as possible, but finally relented and upgraded to Windows10Pro 64 bit from win7. Used an image from 7 years back and went for it.

Frustrating would be speaking lightly, but, after days of registry changes, shell additions and freaky troubleshooting, I think it may finally be right.

I am sure a clean install would be superior and it seems that is the suggestion when all else fails. The upgrade process puts users with little to no experience in a really tough situation as the process can be frought with a nightmare of research, registry tweaks and whatever.

Never have had such problems with an OS.

Time will tell, went 10 years with 7, the image used was from 2012.

Over and outski....

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
