  1. Windows 10 Upgrade.


    I have 2 machines one is my laptop and the other one is my Desktop PC.


    My desktop PC was previously running on Windows 7 Pro then I upgraded it to Windows 10 Pro in Jan 2020.


    On the other hand I had Windows 8.1 Home in my laptop and I upgraded it to Windows 10 Home in December 2019.


    Now what I want is, I want to upgrade my laptop to win 10 pro from win 10 Home using the key which I have in my desktop pc and at the same time I want to downgrade my desktop pc from windows 10 pro to windows 10 home using the key I have in my laptop.


    Both the machines have reatail key and are genuine by all means, since I have upgraded from Win7/8 to Win10 which means that I can tranfer my license only once in lifetime. I have not transferred my license any time before.


    So what should I do to upgrade my laptop and downgrade my desktop pc because I use laptop for office purpose and my desktop pc for home usage.

    :)

    Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

    I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

    After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

    I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:
    • Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
    • Try different keyboard or mouse.
    • Restart computer, repeatedly.
    • Google for related issues.
    • Update Bios, because why not.
    • Create boot media and revert to windows 7.
    The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

    Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

    i've seen this when the stock USB drivers went kaput. Only ever seen it once - i used a PCI USB 2.0 card and connected the mouse and keyboard to that, and manually updated the USB 2/USB 3 drivers.

    Windows 10 Upgrade.

    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
