    Windows 10 PCs not talking to each other via Ethernet


    Hi, guys. I have asked this question previously, but a moderator mistakenly assumed I was a corporate. I am not - simply a home user, desperate for a solutionI have 2 Desktops & 2 Laptops, all for different tasks, connected via a Netgear 8-way switch.All the computers can access the Internet with absolutely no problem at all.My problem is that I cannot get them to talk to each other, in particular, share each others' files.I thought I had covered all the bases, but I am obviously missing something.Any and all assistance will be gratefully received.With my thanks in advance,Pete

    :)

    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

    Windows 10 can we talk?

    Windows 10 is what Windows 8 should have been. Steve Ballmer got fired for a reason. It wasn't just Windows 10/8 though, it was abandoning PC gamers in favor of Xbox gamers, failing to make Windows Phone an open platform so it could succeed against Android, pouring so many resources into Windows 8 RT only to squander it on expensive pet products like Surface RT and Windows Phone, and the list goes on and on. Yeah, Ballmer overall grew the company but it alienated a lot of loyalists along the way.

    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?
