I'm never comfortable putting things into the command line without understanding them. However I did run that command and it popped up a window. But old installations wasn't even an option to select....

CCleaner doesn't even report that it exists. It's still sitting there in C:\ though. I've changed it to Hidden so it doesn't bother me for the time being. Would like to dump it though. There are no...

I'll try ccleaner. Already did the system files with disk cleanup a few times.

Title. I can't get rid of it. It has survived me doing the disk cleanup twice now as well as reboots (figured it was just stuck visually in the file manager). How can I get rid of it.

Not what I wanted to hear but I guess I got 10 for free so I can't complain to much. Thanks.

Maybe wasn't clear. I have a retail 8.1 upgraded to 10 on laptop. Is my 10 key also retail? Or is it locked to the laptop

I bought an 8.1 Home from WalMart so it's a retail package. Upgraded and loving it. However I am curious if I was to go back to Linux and virtualize windows 10 how would that work? I don't want to go...

Thanks much. I'm looking into VMWare Workstation at the moment. Have the trial. Virtualbox seems a bit easier layout but this has many more features. I love it so far. I did some reading on Hyper-V...

If you could read then you would know the question was what virtualization solution should I pick. Not "I need help getting my key activated". That and you also missed the part where I said I no...

I don't mean to be rude but you clearly can't read or are ignoring the whole point of this thread. If you can't help with the question at hand then stay out of it.

No you don't understand. They lied to me. They control the keys. The first time the guy told me to bad. The second time they said they could do nothing even when I pointed out that it was false...

Yes, i tried a few times. After they told me that my key was controlled by Best Buy I gave up. That was a couple weeks ago. Ridiculous as it may be I let them win, I know I would have won in small...

Former Linux user lured by Windows 10. Love it completely. Need Linux for a few things so I need to virtualize. Have Windows 10 Home (Upgraded from Windows 8.1 retail) so I don't have Hyper-V....

8.1 on the box. Thanks for link. Will call in a few minutes

The other day I decided I was going to reinstall windows 8.1. Bad move, now it says my key is invalid, gives me no option to call. Only to buy or enter a new key. This is a retail 8.1 pro. Does...

I don't have the XL mind you. Just the 640 with Cricket. I have been very happy with it so far. It isn't the most powerful phone there is but for my purposes it does just fine. I like not having a...

This article makes me feel better. I was regretting my choice to go with a Lumia 640 as it seemed from most reports that it would be unsupported within a year or two tops. Now I have high hopes for...

At one point I had a Windows 8.1 Pro x32 running on my server with kvm. Gave it up though due to being on my laptop with a wireless network connection. It's not practical for me to hardwire into my...

It may be done through a 3rd party app at some point. Even on Linux which has had virtual desktops for a long long time now, its still not very user friendly to get programs that run at startup to...

Just like Skype stopped being updated regularly on Linux when Microsoft bought them, I hear the death bells ringing for OSX and Linux Minecraft clients...

When I accidentally took my Nexus 5 in the pool with me ... Yes it was an accident. I went with a Lumia 640 with Cricket. I have been quite pleased thus far although like most people's complaints,...

Checked out my little htpc / server... the idea of apt-get purge or --purge is false advertising. I am quite annoyed right now after looking at all the junk that is still in there. My Arch vm is the...

Apple is proof that that would be a good thing. I like customization as much as anyone but sometimes I wonder if we have to many options, then we have the nerve to blame Microsoft when something...

I hope they succeed. I got a Windows phone to give it a spin after Android and I love what they have going on with it and the integration with my laptop (formerly linux & google for me). From what...

Is one of the reasons I still debate going back to linux from time to time. Windows is never really clean. With linux a simple command in the terminal 100% cleans out whatever package, no leftovers....
