Windows 10: Replacing OEM Windows 10 with new purchased Windows 10

Hi


I have a new Dell with pre installed McAfee. The problem is that McAfee cannot be installed without causing significant problems with Outlook 365. I have tried 4 times now. We even had Microsoft support remote accessing our pc and they could not find a solution. McAfee corrupts the outgoing server in such a way that all emails sent are either corrupted or stay in the Outbox. Error messages vary from 0x800CCC0F, 0x800CCC0B and the dreaded and unsolvable 0x8004210B. This results in the symptom that my ISP is not accepting requests, its not. Its the corruption caused by McAfee.


Since nobody is prepared to find a solution to this problem my question is: Can I remove the Dell/McAfee Windows 10 that cam preinstalled, buy a non OEM Windows 10 from Microsoft and install it. So replacing the OEM version with a of the shelf version.


Regards

Antonius

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

Windows 10 Release Date Announced

Windows 10 Home will be $119, Pro $199.

Microsoft: Windows 10 Home costs $119, Pro costs $199



Which is good news actually, because Windows 8.1 is loads cheaper than previous versions (retail licensing at Windows 7 OEM prices). And it sort of puts a huge hole in the Windows subscription theory.

 

Windows 10: A New Generation of Windows

You're mistaken. There is no Windows Phone 10. Microsoft is replacing the Windows Phone line with just Windows 10. Or, in other words, Microsoft is replacing Windows Phone 8.1 with the same Windows 10 that they are replacing Windows 8.1.1 with.
