    Windows 10 rolled itself back to 8.1


    I was experiencing some sound driver problems. I went through advanced startup to clean my computer and on start up I realized it went to Windows 8.1, instead. I've experienced a whole lot more driver issues that weren't present before, and the install of Windows 8.1 was not a clean, factory reset.


    How do I reinstall Windows 10 on my PC?

    :)

    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
