After installing Windows 10, you might be one of those hopeful to see the new desktop wallpaper image Microsoft provided that was created with light, lasers, and projectors, but it's just not displaying for you. Or, maybe you want to turn off the background image altogether because it's just too distracting. The location for turning the background image on and off is located in the Ease of Access settings. To get there: Open the Notification Center in the Windows 10 System Tray and click or tap the All Settings tile. When the Settings window (formerly called the Control Panel) displays, choose Ease of Access. On the Ease of Access window, navigate down to Other Options and then locate the Show Windows Background toggle switch. Source : winsupersite

It looks like Pete has already answered both of your questions. :thumbsup: Thanks, Pete! :D

In Internet Explorer you can go into Internet Options and manually type in multiple Home pages to open whenever the browser opened. This feature still exists in Microsoft Edge for Windows 10 and configuring it is just a bit different. To do this: In Microsoft Edge, tap or click the ellipsis at the top right to display the dropdown menu, then navigate down to Settings. Locate the Open With area and select the option for A specific page or pages option. Tap or click the dropdown menu and choose Custom. Add websites you want to store as "home pages" in the Enter a web address box provided and then tap or click the Plus (+) sign. As you can see from my configuration, I chose MSN and Bing to open automatically in separate tabs every time Microsoft Edge is launched. Source : winsupersite

Any version of Windows just performs better on newer equipment. That's a given. But, with Windows 10 so close to its official upgrade rollout, you might be wondering if your old PC can work adequately with the upgrade. The last thing you want (and Microsoft wants) is to have a horrible experience with this reported fantastic new operating system. Here's the minimum specs you need for the upgrade: A PC running Windows 7 SP1 or Windows 8.1 Update A processor that is at least 1 GHz Depending on your PC architecture: 1 GB of RAM for 32-bit or 2 GB of RAM for 64-bit Also, depending your PC architecture: 16 GB of hard disk space for 32-bit or 20 GB of hard disk space for 64-bit A graphics card that supports DirectX 9 or later with a WDDM 1.0 driver A display that supports at least 800x600 Remember, these are minimum specs. If your PC doesn’t meet every one of these, it's time for a new PC. And, really, unless you bought a new computer in the last 3 years, it may be time to upgrade your hardware anyway.

Windows 10 comes out on July 29th, but you might have to wait until later to get it. Microsoft said today that it would be rolling out Windows 10 in waves, "slowly scaling up" the rollout as it sees how things are going. The intention seems to be playing it safe and making sure that Windows 10 is getting a good response and running smoothly across the millions of different systems out there. Microsoft may even issue updates to Windows 10 between its July 29th release date and the time that some early adopters are actually able to download it. Naturally, Windows Insiders will get Windows 10 first. It sounds as though Windows Insiders — who are already testing Windows 10 — will be able to receive the update on July 29th. After that, people who have gone through the Windows 10 reservation process will begin to receive the ability to update to the new OS. When the rollout hits them, Windows 10 will download to their computers before they're presented with the option to update. It actually seems like a smooth and sensible update process, even if it may disappoint some who were hoping to jump in right on day one. Microsoft doesn't state how long it expects the rollout to take. Microsoft says that it's found the "vast majority" of systems running Windows 7 and 8 to be fully compatible with Windows 10. Manufacturers will have Windows 10 in their hands soon to begin putting it on new machines, and retailers will receive a separate build that can be used to help update eligible devices that were bought with Windows 8.1. Windows 10 Pro's availability will also begin on July 29th. Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows 10 Education will be available a few days later, on August 1st. Source : theverge

Microsoft Edge is a fantastic new web browser that comes with a Windows 10 installation (new or upgrade). It’s a speedy browser and completely compatible with most web sites. Over time many Windows users have been lured away to other browsers like Chrome and Firefox for no fault of their own. Microsoft allowed the Internet Explorer experience to become degraded in performance and value, so you can't blame anyone for trying out a new web browser. With Edge, Microsoft is intending to that turnaround. The brand new Internet browser is sleek, stylish, and built to take on the modern web. Additionally, Edge will be updated frequently with improvements and new features. So, there's a good chance you'll want to use Edge eventually, or at least try it out. One of the best ways to try out any web browser is to visit your favorite web sites to watch how quickly they load and how well they look. In Edge, Microsoft makes it pretty simple to import the web favorites you have collected over time. The process is quick and supports browsers that are properly installed on the device. To get there: With Microsoft Edge open, tap or click the ellipsis at the top right to display the dropdown menu, then navigate down to Settings. Next, tap or click the Import favorites from another browser option. Additional web browser installed on the device will show up in the Import favorites list. Select the browsers from which you want to import from and tap or click the Import button The import takes only a few seconds. Once the import is completed your favorite web sites will show up under… Source : winsupersite

We have known for quite some time that Microsoft will make their free Windows 10 Upgrade for Windows 7 and 8.1 users widely available on 29 July 2015. That date is just one month away from today yet Windows Insiders have not seen a new desktop build of Windows 10 since 29 May 2016 – exactly 30 days ago. We are at a very symmetrical spot regarding Windows 10 as we sit right in the middle of a 60 day period between known builds. We already have Windows 10 build 10130, the last official Insider Preview release from 29 May and in 30 days we know that another build will be available – RTM. What happens in between these two builds though? Will Insiders see another pre-release build of Windows 10? According to Gabe Aul on Twitter early this morning a new build is coming soon. Not the first time we have heard that and what I wouldn’t give for the definition of the term soon but I have no doubt that the Windows 10 team is trying to strike a balance between getting Insiders a new build and reaching RTM status. The reality is that there could be no more Insider Preview builds released between now and RTM and that would not likely slow the process of getting Windows 10 ready for RTM. In fact it could remove some distractions by letting the team focus on the quality benchmarks for Windows 10 to ensure a solid RTM release. The flip side of that coin is that Windows Insiders can be huge brand advocates for Windows 10 and by releasing at least one or two more builds Microsoft will gain a couple of benefits. First is pure telemetry from a multitude of system configurations to see if the latest code has any undiscovered bugs and how the OS runs as it gets closer to that RTM date. Collecting this telemetry is a very quick way for Microsoft to discover potentially show stopping bugs. The second is 4.4 million happy insiders as RTM approaches. Microsoft has put a lot of effort into building this group since last fall and they want Insiders to continue the testing journey after RTM. This means they want those Insiders to install and test post release builds of Windows 10 as new features, fixes and other updates are added to the OS. The sweet taste of a couple more pre-release builds will help to entice many Insiders to opt into that post release Insider Program but the bitter taste of potentially not receiving anymore builds until RTM will be a tough one to get rid of. Personally, I am still of the opinion that there are at least two more builds to come for Insiders. One should be the build that Gabe said is coming soon and then the second one should be in a week or two and likely a build just before what will become RTM for Windows 10. The telemetry and bug reports from Insiders on a build like that can still be very useful and allow Microsoft to prepare possible Day 1 patches/updates to address any lingering issues that might be in RTM. We are definitely at a fork in the road for Windows 10 development and these final stages are very important and will help set the tone for the reception of Windows 10 by the general public. We all know how detrimental perception can be – just go back and look at the release of Windows 8 in the fall of 2012. Source : winsupersite
