Advice pls on setting up new HP Spectre x2
Hi,I have purchased the above machine and need some advice on a few aspects...HP have loaded their own updater/messages/support software which I would like to unload. Is this safe and recommended? Will removing this also remove any HP loaded device drivers?As yet I haven't created a restore point for the fact that it will restore the manufacturers own software again I presume. Is this a wise decision or somewhat foolish?Ideally I would like just a clean install of the latest Win10 os without any overhead.I'm a little apprehensive because I find myself in unfamiliar waters using Win 10 whereas in Linux I can simply reinstall if I get things wrong. I'd really like to kick things off on the right foot from the outset with this machine so I would appreciate some pointers regarding this pre-installed software and then beyond that, any more tips or suggestions for managing/maintaining the setup. Yes, I guess I need a fair bit of hand holding...TIADennis
