Since Windows 10 seems to be gathering steam, I thought it would be good to have a section here giving some tips and tricks that can help others with the new operating system. So let me start:
Annoying Numlock:
If you are using a PIN number on the login screen you will have noticed that Windows now shuts off Numlock on startup. This means you punch in your pin and realize afterwards that the Numlock is not on, regardless of how you have it set in the BIOS settings of the PC.
Here is how you fix it. Boot as normal, and at the login screen, don't enter your PIN or Password. Enable Numlock. Next, Click the Power button on the Lower Right of the screen and select Shutdown. Then start your PC again, and Windows will now remember the Numlock Setting unless you change it at the Login Screen and shutdown from there again.
Changing the Login Screen Background:
You can change the Lock screen Background, but not the initial Login Screen Background in Windows 10 without Third Party apps.
Tweaks.com has a tool that is designed for Windows 8/8.1 but I have tested and confirmed that it does work with Windows 10.
You can Download it here: http://tweaks.com/software/tweakslogon/
Note: You will have to redo your Windows Background and Lock screen background after changing it, as it sets them back to default.
There are a HUGE number of Tips and Tricks on the Windows 10 Reddit.
Here is a link that lists a bunch of them: https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comm ... nd_tricks/
I will try to add others that I find here as well. There are a few that I think are real important about Data Logging that Microsoft does that I don't like, they will be thge next thing I fix and will post here. I also have a list of how to get rid of some of the Apps that Microsoft has included that don't have uninstalls for, such as OneNote and OneDrive.
I will not add anything I have not tested and confirmed.
