  2. Restore a Vista backup to Windows 10

    The links provided don't seem to address the question. The first link is a sign-up for an Insider Program users forum. The second does not have anything about restoring a backup from Vista to Windows 10.

  3. Problem with Microsoft Treasure Hunt in Windows 10

    I have a surface pro 3 and hate windows 10 effects on Treasure hunt. I downloaded windows 10 when it came out, and reverted back to 8.1 almost immediately. Windows 10 did not work well with the touchscreen, nor the Treasure hunt game. I decided to download
    windows 10 again recently before it is not offered forfree, figuring I will need it in the future. I still HATE the way it acts with Microsoft Treasure Hunt and a few other things. You would think since the game and windows 10 are both from Microsoft they
    would have worked out what is going on. Nothing has changed. Microsoft, why don't you coordinate the Surface Pro with your games????? I am very Annoyed with Microsoft. Get with it.

    window 10 antivirus?

    Its called Windows Defender. You can find it by typing its name in the search box. The program's settings are in the Settings App.

  6. If you have another Antivirus installed and working Windows Defender will not turn on it will be greyed out.
    If you have no other Antivirus it should come on after it is downloaded and installed.
    How you can turn it on is
    Right Click the Start Button
    Then Control Panel
    Then go to Windows Defender and turn it on there also windows Firewall
    Once it has installed just let it scan and update itself.
    I now use it and find it does the job better than the third party one I had
    Hope that helps you

    Well lets put it this way I have removed all 3rd Party Antivirus on all the systems we have and installed Defender on all of them and have not had one problem.
    Just keep it updated and let it do its job scanning and you should find it not letting anything though

    The Defender should be all you need. I only use it and haven't had any issues so far.

    Defender should be enough if you surf smart, and if you don't download things from unsafe sites (Torrents, cracks etc. ). If you have a particularly good computer, then a combination of Defender + Windows Firewall + Malwarebytes Pro + Anti Exploit is all you would need for day to day internet usage. *Smile

    window 10 antivirus?

    Advanced users may have a need for an AV with advanced options. But of course only an advanced user would be in a position to answer that question for their specific situation.

    I am using AVG free. I make no claims that it is the best, in fact it probably isn't. I have been using it long before Microsoft had an AV product and have no interest in investigating or trying anything else at this time.

    Do not interpret this as a recommendation either for or against. I will make no recommendations
