Windows 10: REPLACE WINDOWS 10 IN NEW DEVICE

THIS DESKTOPHAS BEEN DISASSEMBLED.

I HAVE PURCHASED BRAND NEW SURFACE PRO 7 WITH KENSINGTON PRO DOCKING DEVICE TO REPLACE THIS DESKTOP .

I PLAN TO LINK UP TWO EXTERNAL HHDs AND POSSIBLY ALSO THE NTERNAL HHD FROM THIS OBSOLETE DESKTOP AS ADDITIONAL PRIVATE "SERVER" POWERED BY ONE OF MY OLDER BUT STILL FUNCTIONING PC WITH WINDOWS VISTA. THIS "SERVER " WOULD HAVE NO PROGRAMS OR APPS ON IT OTHER THAN THOSE SUPPORTING ITS OS AND STAY ON THE LINE ONLY INTERMITENTLY.

I HAVE PURCHASED WINDOWS 10 PRO FOR CDN DOLLARS 225 AND COULD USE IT IN PLACE OF WINDOWS 10 STUDENT THAT CAME WITH THE NEW PC. WINDOWS 10 PRO HAS ENHANCED SECURITY FEATURES AND THAT WOULD SAVE ME ADDING FILES PROTECTING THIRD PARTY ANTIVIRUS PROGRAM. IN ADDITION MY AND MY FAMILY PRIVATE DOCUMENTS , PICTURES AND MUSIC WOULD BE IN MY CUSTODY AGAIN, LIKE THEY WERE IN THE OLD DAYS.


COULD SOMEBODY ADVISE ME IF MICROSOFT HAS ANY SAFE PROCEDURE OR HELP ARTICLE HOW TO DECOMMISSION EXISTING REGISTERED PC AND REUSE TH E OS SOMWH ERE E LSE? COMMENT ALSO ON MY IDEA TO BUILT PRIVATE STORAGE I DESCRIBE ABOVE? IS IT PRACTICAL? IS ANYBODY DOING THIS?

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
