Windows 10: Windows 10 generating 20GB of Event Logs in C:\Windows\Temp per day.

This has been happening since a few weeks ago. I'd just cleared out 20GB from my hard drive to free up space only to find that my hard drive was completely full a couple days later, and after looking into it I found that the C;\Windows\Temp folder held 40GBs worth of files, primarily in Event Logs. Since then I've had to manually clear the contents of the folder daily, and regularly find my hard drive completely full if I don't. I tried running Disk Cleanup at one point in the hopes that it would clear the folder safely, but it only registers a few MB of temp files on my system to delete, so I

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.

• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Windows 10 Tweaks

As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

• Launch the Store from your Start menu.
• Click the user icon next to the search box.
• Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
• Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
• When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”
