The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #VII.. Stop In!!!

Catweasel, be sure you back up everything and have disks so you can go back if you don't like 10. They claim you can go back, but I had to revert to reformating and reinstalling 8.1. I did not like 10 at all.

Tom, there are some settings there to keep Win10 from calling home. They are hidden deep in the system.

Here are a couple links.

I downloaded classic shell and adjusted the system to look more like the older versions, and I don't need apps so I deleted most of them. It increased the speed somewhat.

Good Luck

Hi Charlie. I'm looking at upgrading to Win 10 soon and your wrinkles are going to be useful. Thank you. I've printed the pages so I can refer to them when I do. Have a good one.
