Here is a Quick and Easy Way to Install Windows 10

This is essentially a clean install of Windows 10.

But not so different that it turns off users as Windows 8 did. Keep in mind that anything now on the drive will be erased in the process, so it’s advisable to backup anything you may have saved on your drive of choice and start fresh. That being said, I do own 2 laptops that I rarely use for business and I am excited to install Windows 10 on them today.

Show or hide recently added apps on the right pane.

The build of Windows 10 that Belfiore is now using on his Xiaomi Mi4 is described as “a candidate we’re testing out to MAYBE flight”. You can read about in full over on Windows Central.

Resize a tile: Right-click the tile. One of the key reasons is the return of the Start Menu, and we think this is the best version of it ever.

I have the same problem, I had a little over 500 apps listed and after a secure reboot all my start menu links were gone and they’re missing now from all apps, too. Repeat until you’ve eliminated all the tiles.

After being guided through the setup process and letting Windows do its thing, you should be taken right to your fresh and clean desktop.

Personally, I’m really enjoying Windows 10.

Make Start, taskbar and action center transparent. Before installing the update, it is recommended to back up all the important files and folders already present in the system.

As with the notification shade on Android phones, you can customise the list of icons to be displayed.

I installed the Office 2016 Preview, which works fine, as well as Firefox, and several utilities, all of which functioned as expected. There’s also the Windows 10 Pro Pack for $99.

If you have a convertible system, Tablet mode will be of interest.

Remove a tile: Open the Start menu. It’s familiar enough so that most people will probably feel comfortable upgrading, with a sprinkling of new user-centric features that shows Microsoft’s eyes are on the future. Chances are high that you can also get it for free. Open up the new Settings app, then head to Update & Security, Activation. Now right-click it, select Uninstall from the context menu, and follow any uninstall wizards that appear. But it happens less frequently than in Windows 8.

Time to say goodbye to this program. This is where you’ll tell the computer to go ahead and boot from your install disk, rather than loading Windows as it normally does.

Benedict Evans of the venture capital company Andreessen Horowitz noted in a blog post: “The apps that people want on smartphones are not being written for desktop Windows anyway”.

Setting it up was easy.

The update took a few hours but went totally smoothly. While it is faster than typing in a password, most users are unlikely to have the required hardware on their existing devices. (Apple and Google tout similar features in their software.). It can answer questions ranging from the weather to sports scores and create events and reminders on your calendar. By the end of the year, it should be available in Australia, Brazil, Canada, India, Japan and Mexico. It felt like Windows 98 all over again.

The latest version is much more polished. The games I tried, primarily from Xbox, also behaved. If you attempt a fresh install without first getting a Windows 10 key, you will actually have to buy it. If you upgrade first, Microsoft will associate a new license with your computer and then you can do a fresh install without having to spend any money.

Perhaps, it will grow on you.

Microsoft has designed Windows 10 to allow users to easily transform from using a touch-focused to a traditional desktop platform.
