    I have given my laptop computer to my daughter. How can I give her all the authority, rights, powers to use all of the functions without having to go to my passwords or my account?

  2. Transferring Ownership of Desktop to a Family Member

    Hey! Thanks for replying!

    • The account on the desktop being transferred to my mom is a Microsoft Account, I also use it on my current laptop.
    • I purchased MS Office 2010 for her, she said she should have the disc/product key but will look today.
    • I wish to transfer ownership of MS Office 2013 currently on the desktop, I've upgraded to MS Office 2016 on my laptop.
    • One of the main reasons I'm handing this down is the condition of her computer and that my gifted computer has been sitting for about six to eight months. It may have been longer but ... Should I update Windows prior to transferring ownership?
    Thank you for your time and efforts!

    MR

    Hi,

    There are several possible ways that you can transfer ownership of certain Microsoft products. One option is that if you have the product key of the software you can reinstall it and then enter new information. For us to resolve your concern, kindly answer
    the question below:

    • The login you're using for your Windows 10 computer, is that a Microsoft account or a local user account?
    • Do you still have the installer for the Microsoft Office 2010 suite and the product key?
    • What other applications do you wish to transfer ownership?
    • Which version and build of Windows 10 is installed on your computer?

    We look forward to your response to our queries.

    transfer files between computers on a home network

    I don't know why this is so hard to do but I would like to transfer files between a desktop PC running windows 10 pro and a laptop running windows 10 home. I would like to transfer files in both directions. Both computers are on the same home network and are connected wirelessly.

    Could some one provide either specific step by step instructions on how to do this (I googled and found a countless list of instructions that don't work)

    or a link to a reference.

    Thanks,

    I don't know if this is possible but it would be nice to see the computer sending the desired file in the explorer file manager of the computer receiving the desired file and then under the computer see a list
    of shared files and folders.

    Again, this seems like such a reasonable way of sharing files and folders. Shouldn't there be a simple way to do this?
