I will also confirm that Win10 Defender and Win10 Firewall along with the occasional scan of MalewareBytes Free is my primary weapons for protection. MB Free is primarily used to clean malware if I...

Outlook has been the saving grace for MS Office for me. LibreOffice has 99% replaced Office on my home computers without any regret. Now I'm moving towards completely ridding myself of Outlook,...

SuperAntispyware is finding browser cookies, which many, including myself, don't view as a significant threat. I use to scan with SA but don't any more, but maybe useful once in awhile to clear out...

Same problem using Windows 10 Pro desktop pc. 1st thought problem was with wireless mouse and keyboard, but problem persists after swapping in wired USB keyboard/mouse. Keyboard/mouse are basic USB...

You should be able to remove McAfee via "program & features" in control panel. Defender along with occasional scans of Malwarebytes Free is adequate protection and will be much lighter on...

I still use it and I like to think it helps. It's updated and passively blocks/prevents known types of attacks. It gives me comfort as an added layer or pre-layer of protection. Its so lightweight...

Many many posts, I will save you alot of time! Windows Defender & Malwarebytes Free is all you need really. I also use the preventive SpywareBlaster Free. I guess it would depend on the...

Yes, its easy to use and compatible with M$ Office.

For whatever its worth I also have a copy of Office 2010 but decided to ditch it on my home pc in favor of LibreOffice. Granted I have no need for Outlook on my home pc but so far everything is...

I didn't state, since it's well known now he can't, he would be able to perform a clean install directly. He will be able to perform clean install of Windows 10 via 1 of 2 methods. 1. After...

You could upgrade 8.1 Home to 8.1 Pro, then perform the free in-place free upgrade to Windows 10 Pro. Once 10 Pro is upgraded/installed and activated you are all set and will never have to perform a...

No looking back for me, everything works! Win 95, Win98SE, Win 2000, Win XP, & Win 7 all were wonderful but its time to move on again. Didn't touch at all Win ME, Vista and Win 8. Win 10 is the...

I would iron out everything while still on 8.1, so I would upgrade to Pro 1st on 8.1. Once you are running 8.1 Pro Activated you won't have any problems upgrading free to Windows 10 Pro. This...

I've been a computer geek for along time and a huge Windows fan. I remember taking Windows 3.1 classes on the job even. I even earned the WinNT 4.0 MCSE years ago for the job. So yes, I...

I recommend swapping in the new SSD, or any other hardware upgrades, while still on Windows 8.1, then upgrade to Windows 10 to avoid any complications activating Windows 10 if you later choose to...

As others above note the built-in Windows 10 Image Burning Tool works 100% fine via Windows Explorer. IMGBurn is an alternative, but far from necessary. Personally I prefer not to install 3rd party...

Yea, I was going to download but read all the reviews on the App Store that the Netflix App is busted in Win10:cry: Hopefully M$ or Netflix will fix soon.

If Win10 was activated after upgrading you now can perform a direct clean install. You can create/burn an ISO bootableUSB or DVD from any pc using the Media Creation Tool. If Win10 was activated...

Actually I'm confident it had something to do with the UEFI + secure boot in Win10. For some reason the external USB/DVD drive was color coded as being UEFI bootable, which I had to select as boot...

IMGBurn did not work for me after several attempts when trying to create the Win10 ISO after I was upgraded to Win10. No biggie, I was able to burn the Win10 Pro ISO via Windows Explorer using the...

Search and I shall find my own answer:) Following are a couple of solutions which is all I need! "Installed Windows 10 on my wife's laptop and it looks like all the media streaming duties in Windows...

Yes, Windows Media Player does work on Windows 10. It is missing, from what I can tell, the Windows Media Center functionality. I will check out PS3 Media Server. Is there a PS3 app on Xbox 360 or...

Since upgrading to Windows 10 I have lost something I used frequently, the ability to stream movies & pictures to my Xbox 360. Apparently Windows Media Center isn't supported on Win10. Looking for...

I have been reliably using the Windows 10 built-in image burner via Windows Explorer. I was using Imgburn prior but decided not to install at this point. Not a heavy CD/DVD burner but was able to...
