    Windows 10 pictures app

    Libraries function the same in Windows 10 as they did in Windows 7.x & 8.x -- you just need to define which folder(s) your Pictures Library is stored in. From what you described, it sounds like you're pointing at the default '/user/pictures' folder, but are actually storing your photos...

    Windows 10 upgrade on a SP2 thread

    It's actually in a much better home now, still SP2, but in a new sub-forum for Windows 10. Maybe take a look at the search function? It's an easy way to find stuff regardless of the location.

    Windows 10 upgrade on a SP2 thread

    This will probably get moved to the Windows 10 topic... but... I did a clean install after having used the beta for quite a while. Something I noticed with both setups was the power button. It often requires a couple presses before it's recognized. It's something W10 specific, as during the...

    Surface Pro 2 Windows 10 issue

    I noticed a lot of drive activity on my Dell after installing W10 -- light was pretty much solid, occasionally flickering. I changed an update setting (Settings/Update & Security/Windows Update/Advanced Options/Choose How Updates Are Delivered) and changed the setting for 'Updates from more...

    Surface Pro 2 Windows 10 issue

    I'm not seeing the issue with my SP2, which is running with a clean-install, not an update. Chrome running with 8 tabs and Outlook 2016 Preview, my CPU is idling at 2% and memory at 26% (8GB ram).

    Resetting W10 and SP3

    I'm not sure if the SP3 and SP2 are the same in this regard, but I had been using the beta and then did a total system reset and my SP2 reverted to Windows 8.1, then I performed an upgrade to get the free upgrade outside of the Insider beta method, opting to keep no files or settings. After...

    Windows 10's Alarming Privacy Policy

    Is it really all that different than most other privacy policies? If privacy is a strong concern, you might want to compare it to Apple -- there's isn't as much a cause for concern... Personally, about the only thing I left on during the install process was location services. Cortana...

    Windows 10...not impressed.

    It's not a huge deal, no need to be impressed -- just think of it as what Windows 8 should've been. It'll continue to improve...

    Clean Install W10 Release Version

    I've been using the beta since it first came out via the Insider program (Fast-Ring). I realize the free-upgrade stays in place if I keep my SP2 setup with Insider, however, I want to do a clean install of the release version regularly, not via Insider. Using the Windows 10 factory-reset...

    Microsoft Has a Big Plan to Celebrate the Launch of Windows 10

    Looks more polished than the launch of Windows Phone 7 :D

    Fast battery drain issue

    If you can get by without it, maybe return it and wait for the Surface Pro 4...? Should be out very soon, but could mean a couple month wait -- you may not have the luxury of time.

    Surface Pro 3 crowned as the fastest tablet, followed by the iPad Air 2 and Nexus 9

    Nah... but maybe comparing same-category-device to same-category-device would've been something worth quoting ;-)

    SP2 pen - can you configure to open OneNote?

    Nope... SP3 and SP2 pens are dissimilar -- SP3 has batteries... Bluetooth... etc... http://bfy.tw/Skm

    SP2 pen - can you configure to open OneNote?

    I think that started being a feature with the pen of the SP3...

    Surface Pro 3 crowned as the fastest tablet, followed by the iPad Air 2 and Nexus 9

    Would be more telling if the comparison were more PC-tablet vs PC-tablet oriented. Even a regular Surface 3, although not exactly. If it was still being produced, the RT in this comparison would seem more appropriate...

    Skytab Surface 3 Elite Hardshell case - short review

    The definition of fugly -- though it will protect the S3 -- would look a lot better if it wasn't glossy. At least it's really cheap. I think cases for the MacBook Air would be a better way to go.

    New Surface, yellowish display

    If you search this forum, or google, you'll find this is a common defect.

    Craiglist issues

    I'm not sure if it's the same for the SP3, but I discovered accidentally on my SP2 that if you do a system reset from Settings/Updates & Security/Recovery and choose Factory Restore it brings back Windows 8.1 -- I was expecting to get a clean install of Windows 10, but that wasn't what happened...
