[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 571244, member: 6277"] I was an early adopter of Win10 and started using it when it was in Beta. I have done a lot of testing and I really love it. One problem I found was the upgrade path is clumsy. My degree was in computer programing so I tend to play a lot in my computers adding and deleting a lot of programs. Speed was an issue with me. What I ended up doing was reformatting my hard drive and doing a totally clean install of Win10 (they finally created a path to do that) That sped it up considerably. My next project was to install a SSD drive and migrate Win10 and my programs to the SSD while leaving all documents on the old C drive which is not Drive k I believe. This was a big boost in speed. Lightroom and the catalog live on the SSD while all photos live on external USB drives. I also replaced my video card with one that will work with Lightroom and Photoshop. Also replaced my internet company and my WiFi card to one that has 5G and now I get 130MB download and 10MB upload speeds. It is like a brand new computer now. [/QUOTE]
