  1. Reactivating Windows 10


    I am planning on moving over half of my components to a new PC build, so once the new one is built I will no longer be able to use the old one. I currently have a retail digital windows 10 key. I know I can transfer my key to the new PC by signing in to my Microsoft account and hitting "Trouble Shoot" in the activation section of settings. However, is there anything I need to do on my old PC to transfer this digital copy before I disassemble? Like do I need to authorize a transfer on the old one, or deactivate the digital key, or anything like that? Or is it just as simple as signing into my M

    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
