  1. Windows 10 install


    I was forced to do a complete Win 10 install, on a machine previously operating Win 8.1. Because I backed up all my most important document folders, I now have duplicate folders for documents under two separate users. I'm sure the newer user folder was created upon Win10 install, but all my documents are in the older legacy folders. The names of the users me are similar, but not the same. Only the newly created user folder pops up on the quick search screens in Windows explorer. I have to fumble around to get to the older folder. I wish I could post a screenshot to illustrate what I mean?


    Is the workaround as simple as copying all my old documents to the newer of the two users, and then deleting the duplicate user folders?

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
