    Just upgraded to windows 10...how the heck do I set up two different wallpapers?

In the dialogbox that appears, type "control /name Microsoft.Personalization /page pageWallpaper" (Without the quotes) and click OK. I hope this answers...

    My advice to you is to back up all your data and install a fresh copy of Windows 10 from the ISO burned into a DVD or USB Stick, then choose custom install and delete all the partition from the HDD that has many left over partition and create a single new one. Now depending on if your BIOS is...

    Cleaning the bloat from Windows 10

    Deleting the recovery partition is not going to effect windows, it main purpose is to use it as a cleanup or restore tool with out formatting the OS in case something goes wrong with your OS in the future you could boot into that.

    Personally my self, I disabled Windows Defender, Security Center and Windows Firewall on Win10 and previews Versions of Windows as I generally don't use any antivirus programs or anything. Currently the one minor problem I'm having is the annoying notifications that pop up after a reboot due to...
