Windows 10: Windows 10 New Profile Set Up

I need some assistance in setting up a new user on my PC with access to a specific hard drive. i have several hard drives on my computer and want to designate a specific one to the new user, but block access to the rest of the hard drives. My baseline thought is setting up the new user to have a "clean slate" for their profile and hard drive so they don't have access to anything I have installed on my profile and hard drives.

I already attempted to set up a new local user on the PC, but couldn't figure out how to block access to the rest of the other hard drives. When the new user profile was set up, I noticed some apps were already pre-installed on the profile. I am assuming these apps were there because when I installed them (before the new profile was set up), I had given them permission to be installed and accessed by all users. Is there a way to make sure the new user doesn't have these already installed when setting up the profile?

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

Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild

Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

Might be helpful to list what i've done I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.

 

Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

Here's a quick laundry list:

List of software to use for overclocking and testing
Examples:
Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)
