    So I upgraded 7 to 10. Could I use the 7 key I just upgraded to 10 on another machine and upgrade that one as well?

    Great! So, it won't affect my main PC install of 10 activation-wise? That would make things so much simpler.

    Yeah, searching around, it involves screwing with the registry, which I don't want to do. I'll look around some more. Thanks.

    How can I change the name of my User folder?

    Usually, Windows gives me an option to name my account. In 10, it just uses a shortened name of my Microsoft Account username/email address. Is there a way to change it without messing up my system?...

    Okay, I gotcha. So if I decided to switch mobos or whatever, I would first have to install 8.1, pop in the 10 disc and do an upgrade install? Think I prefer the product key at this point. lol

    Hey Brink,

    Sorry I posted this in the wrong section. Wasn't sure exactly where to put it. So I can do the upgrade install, get the 10 key, and then do a clean install afterward?

    Great. I'll look into this. This is the drive I was talking about:

    It can use micro sd or sd cards.

    Much prefer using discs to install Windows. I just burn the iso and I'm good. USB is painfully slow for me. Not to mention, I'd rather just pop a disc in than load it on the usb drive.

    I hope it works out and being free makes more people migrate from 7. It'll only benefit everyone when people move on to newer things.

    I'm assuming it's just like the deals we got for 7 and 8. When it first releases, you would get an upgrade deal for about $30 and then it's yours. It's that, only free this time.

    I used WinaeroTweaker and set paddedborderwidth to 0. Just checked in the registry and it's 0. The border is thinner, but no where near Windows 10 thinner. Oh well. Not a big deal. Thanks.

    How did you thicken the borders in 10? Is there a way to change that in 8? I tried using WinAero, but I can't get the borders to be as thin as Windows 10's.

    Linux Mint is actually pretty good. I used that for a little while, but the lack of driver support (my soundcard) is what made me switch back to Windows. That and some games.
