Update 2023: These are still the settings I would recommend changing when setting up a new Windows 10 PC. For your convenience, *Time Stamps* are included in the video description... Thanks for watching!
TechGumbo At the 4:40 timestamp of this video you mention how to turn off notifications {sounds}. *IF* I get windows app installed on my android phone {instead of on a PC {as i don't own a PC} will what you're talking about in this video be Synchronized to "Writer's Outlet" app which I have on my phone? The sound of new notifications from Writer's Outlet is *DRIVING ME CRAZY* . 📲 😧 👨💻 🕵️♂️ 🗯
Whoopee! For once we have a clear and concise video, in clear English, no music and no-nonsense. Well done! I will come back frequently to learn from you. Thanks a bunch.
Good common sense advice. Very helpful. I'm retired now from doing this for customers in my own business, and I've used Macs myself since forever, so when friends and family still ask me for help - currently with Windows 10 which I've had no reason to even look at otherwise - videos like this are invaluable to bring me quickly up to speed with where everything is now and anything new. My sincere thanks.
I learned so much from your video. I saved it to my library so I hope you don’t delete it anytime soon. I’m on my tablet right now but want to use the info later when I have my laptop out. Like everyone else is saying it is so clear and no distracting music in the background! Thank you so much for your time. And oh yeah, I subscribed to your channel.
One of the best instructional video ever, I am a late-migrator from Windows 7 and I have quite a lot to catch up with, so I was playing this video and hammering those settings at the same time. Sweet...
Thanks for your very helpful videos, but as an older person i often don't know which setting is best for me and once i go out of the settings i'll forget where to go back to change the setting back if i should need to. Your videos do help a lot though!!
Really good video. Thanks for taking the time to put it up for me and everyone else. It's always nice to find videos and information that help us solve problems.
This was really good. I tend to go through my settings carefully when I get a new machine, and yet many of these escaped me. Exceptional content guys, and thanks for the tips! :)
I just got my new Ryzen gaming computer and i love the Dark mode and the automatic mode to take away the blue in the screen!! its such a lifesaver now when i am working on papers later one in the night.
This Video Was Extremely Precise & Helpful To Me As I'm Transitioning To A New Windows 10 Computer. Also Loving Your Other Great Video's. Thanks So Very Much !!
This really is excellent. I don't like all the privacy things set as they were, but being able to change things is good. Your piece de resistance was showing me how to change the app background from light to dark. I use a Dell 3014 monitor and the expanse of white light was too much. Thanks very much. Very grateful.
Most of these I already knew. However, I did learn some new and useful tips. I often disagree with peoples suggested settings. There were no suggestions here that I disagreed with. Most of his recommendations I already had set but did tweak a few I was not aware of. The biggest problem I have with windows 10 is the automatic update and reboot. I have a home control systems that is running under windows 10. Occasionally it doesn't restart correctly due to not being shutdown properly. There is nothing nice about coming home at night and the lights don't turn on like they are suppose to because the home control computer was restarted. Not so bad on other PC's but a major pain on the home control system. I have actually been thinking about switching it to Linux just to avoid that problem.
6 років тому+1
So switch to Linux "any distro" what you waiting for lol [ ;
Thanks for a great video. Have you done a similar one for Win 8.1? One more question. Have you done a video on upgrading from Win 8.1 to Win 10? I dread the thought of the many hours of “getting back to where I am now with my apps after the update” :)
I’m having a problem, when ever I play on an online game with people, my screen seems to freeze every 10 seconds and it when it ends freeZing, it puts me somewhere random in my game, I don’t think this has anything to do with my WiFi because I tried it and it didn’t work. Help of you can pls.
That's pretty dumb expression... xD The disk space that stores the 1s and 0s of this video weighs next to nothing... Most of the information here is very obvious and well known, but I still think it's worth more than that man. :D
Thank you so much for your videos! I have been kicking and screaming about Win10 ever since they started testing way back and did NOT want to go there as I was more than happy with Win7! Fast forward to now and I finally broke down and ordered a laptop and I was dreading Win10. Your videos helped me to see and understand that there is still a lot of what I loved about Win7 in this monster Microsoft has created and made it a lot easier to make the changes I needed to in order to make Win10 something I can live with! Thanks!!
Hi and thank you for sharing your video. I was experiencing crazy activity with my laptop and attempted to follow your instruction, however, I was unable to locate cortona under setting. How may I fix these options if the options aren’t available to choose?
These are some really nice basic settings that need to be changed. I agree with most of these. The one setting is about auto-loading programs after restart. Firstly, a user should make sure everything is shut down anyways upon a restart. However, I do like having my email auto-load if there was a restart, planned or otherwise. The biggest issue with this setting is that it's really "2" settings in one. 1) Auto sign-in to automatically "finish" setting up device. 2) Reopen apps after restart With #1, if this option is turned off and the system needs to do more than 1 restart or login to finish updates, it won't. So even if it restarts in the middle of night when you are sleeping, you could come back to a system that takes 30mins or longer to "finish" updates after you login. I wish MS would actually separate these two options
Thanks for the reminders! I recently changed my hard drive and updated windows. I forgot to re-change some of the settings :/.. In the "all pc's" setting>[Upload Settings] >Advanced Options if I uncheck the "Limit how much bandwidth...to other PC's..." and "Monthly upload limit" boxes will it override the unchecked "Allow downloads from other PC's"? Thanks again!
Using 3 finger swipe gestures on your touchpad to control volume. I changed it to that randomly months ago and now it's something I don't know how I lived without to be honest lol
I love the help you gave me for not having to reopen all the programs i had to when i hit lag when in game. just had to get back in game not reopen 15 other programs.... thanks so much...
As a 20 plus year Apple user, I finally had to get a PC in order to utilize my work software. You are rocking my world! Everything with PC is greek to me, but you have been a lifesaver. Thank you for your very informative videos.
Nice. I had most of these done, as matter of course, but was looking for a good how to for several friends, and this was best one I've found; thanks. :-)
Thanks for the video. Do you have videos, in which you go through all Chrome and Windows settings and tell the recommendable ones? How can I return to that version of windows 10, that was on my laptop when I bought it.
new tip=In the search box on the taskbar, type settings, then choose it from the list of results. Select System > Storage > This PC and then scroll down the list and choose Temporary files. Under Remove temporary files, select the Previous version of Windows check box and then choose Remove files.
Thanks for those tips... it helps a lot on my computer use. Now the only think that is driving me crazy is that windows 10 has the sleep mode wake up problem. I tried many things but it I still not fix. The problem I am facing that when the computer goes to sleep mode when I try to wake it up takes forever more than 10 minutes and that is very frustrating. It sound many have similar issues but Microsoft people don’t care. Do you have any tip that can help beside discussed in this video? 🤔
Personally, I check all of my Settings every time there is a Windows update... my Settings always change themselves. I talked to Microsoft about this & they don't seem to care that it is annoyingly UN-user-friendly. Control Freaks!!!
Joe Johnson this is misleading. Ubuntu asks if users want to send error reports and usage statistics, you are asked during the installation process if you are ok with that (it's one checkbox, not convoluted settings that reset after an update like in Windows 10). If you do agree, it collects data such as general information about the hardware (so they see what people use it on, so they can develop drivers appropriately), time taken to finish the installation (so they can optimize this process), settings selected during the installation process and non-identifiable stuff like that. This is far from what Windows 10 does and you have very clearly given the option to disable this during the installation and in the settings. Manjaro has a toxic community? Well that's interesting, I always though they were noob friendly and want to establish themselves as arch for humans. Must be different personal experiences. The argument for MX Linux is that is has a "complete graphical user interface" - that's just 99% of distros, that's not something unique to MX Linux. If you ask me, I recommend going with Kubuntu, as it is the most used OS (Ubuntu) with the best GUI that looks more like Windows with its defaults but can be made to look however you want to if you want to customize it at some point or another. But Windows users will feel right at home here.
@Joe Johnson "It's not 99% of Linux distros that have a complete G.U.I. because if you have to use the command line and or enter commands that should of been filled in already it doesn't have a complete G.U.I." Then neither Windows, Linux or Mac have a "complete GUI" - try disabling the default apps that ship with W10 (but not with the N edition) without a command line. You don't really have to use CLIs with Ubuntu derivates for what you'd expect are the use cases of typical computer users. There is advanced stuff with any OS where you have to edit either the registry, system files or enter some commands into a terminal/PowerShell to achieve your goal.
Sure I have a degree in CS but don't know what I'm talking about, what else is new? Any reasons why I'm wrong or just because you currently feel like disagreeing with someone?
I agree with turning "off" downloading from other PCs but I leave it on and allow the updates to only optimize from my local network. This is safe enough for me and as I have multiple computers on the same domain it seems redundant to download the same updates over and over again.
Thanks for this video, I found it very useful. Will you be doing an updated version each time Windows gets a major update? Like the October 2018 I have just installed.
Thanks. I consider myself pretty proficient with windows but I always learn new tips from your videos. I have a question. If one uses the settings you recommend in storage sense is it necessary to have a 3rd party service like ccleaner?
Nice video...how do you change the font and size of fonts in the Outlook 365 New email screen? I need these fonts to be at least 2X their default size. I don’t want to change the font/size of font in the Message part of the email, just in the To:, From: cc:, Bcc:, and Subject fields...
Thank you for this. I've only just installed win 10. I'm not liking the layout at all and have been frustrated many times trying to find simple things such as control panel. Any more help on windows 10 would be welcome. I'm sure i'm not the only one who needs more help.
There are more fast ways to get to settings in Win10. Type Control + s, then type 'env' takes you right to the Environment Variables Tab of the System Properties.
Thanks bro for sharing this video. I'm about to Reset my Laptop and this is very useful. Stay safe bro. God Bless & Protect us all. (LIKED & SUBSCRIBED)
Change the Advanced Update settings update channel to the business setting for 'feature updates' (aka 'this is where we use the public to bug test new versions). This will delay twice yearly version updates by at least a couple of months while all the bugs are ironed out. You can't do this in the home version sadly. Alternatively go back to Windows 7 for a quiet life and none of this crap- sadly you may be out of luck on some newer laptops with drivers though.
These are great settings advice! I am changing a lot of things. If I can read my notes. LOL Thanks so much for explaining those all important settings. I have no book to reference...
I go into my control panel and select power settings and choose edit power plan. I edit it to the "high-performance" mode it uses a lot of power but my pc is plugged in all the time. in some pc's there is an ultimate-performance mode which uses a HUGE amount of power my PC doesn't have that because my pc is windows 10 enterprise I think the "ultimate-performance" mode is available on Windows 10 Pro edition.this is a very good setting you should change it now.
Thanks kindly. I finally picked up a new computer that has Widows 10 on it. I resisted upgrading until now. I actually enjoyed XP and probably 7 the most. :)
Update 2023: These are still the settings I would recommend changing when setting up a new Windows 10 PC. For your convenience, *Time Stamps* are included in the video description... Thanks for watching!
just a suggestion, the time stamps would work well in the comments than the description anyway love your videos really helpfull
HidemyVolumeOsd is a download but it gets rid of the stupid massive volume icon

Why aren't my Settings options the same are yours?

Fantastically helpful - even if I don't change anything, it's great to know what all this options are.
Just wanted to thank you for this video. Didn't use all of it but there were several alterations I found very useful - esp. the night viewing app!
Cool! Thank you!

Hey TechGumbo - thanks for taking the time to produce this excellent video tutorial regarding settings in Windows 10.
Amazing video. Windows 10 has so much setting but this video covered a lot of the most important ones. Great job and ty !
This was really good. I tend to go through my settings carefully when I get a new machine, and yet many of these escaped me. Exceptional content guys, and thanks for the tips! :)
Does this help with your performances?
I just got my new Ryzen gaming computer and i love the Dark mode and the automatic mode to take away the blue in the screen!! its such a lifesaver now when i am working on papers later one in the night.
Hi
@seba Simp detected eradication process: initiate
i was literally changing my settings while watching this video. thanks man this is so helpful
This Video Was Extremely Precise & Helpful To Me As I'm Transitioning To A New Windows 10 Computer. Also Loving Your Other Great Video's. Thanks So Very Much !!
Thanks as always gumbo.i find your videos easy to follow for a computer novice.
The most well done and clearly spoken instructional video that I've seen on UA-cam.
I have done all of these already just want to say that Storage sense is a usefull feature and you can manually clean storage at that storage page
This really is excellent. I don't like all the privacy things set as they were, but being able to change things is good. Your piece de resistance was showing me how to change the app background from light to dark. I use a Dell 3014 monitor and the expanse of white light was too much. Thanks very much. Very grateful.
IT is suggested you move off windows 10 and buy a chromebook instead
🤣

Great, great video, great production and information.
Great video...just bought a new ssd and this info will help with my new install of windows 10!
1:30 sec in and already updating my windows 10.
I think this vid will help a bunch as havnt had a pc in 5+ yrs
it is an antiquated version of windows 10 and the menu options have changed. read yours carefully.
I’m having a problem, when ever I play on an online game with people, my screen seems to freeze every 10 seconds and it when it ends freeZing, it puts me somewhere random in my game, I don’t think this has anything to do with my WiFi because I tried it and it didn’t work. Help of you can pls.
This information is worth its weight in gold. *_THANK YOU_* .
Joe Johnson you’r lying
Lmao, considering information is weightless, this is pretty funny
Lars, that is a common expression we have here in the United States.
Joe Johnson, you're a moron.
That's pretty dumb expression... xD The disk space that stores the 1s and 0s of this video weighs next to nothing... Most of the information here is very obvious and well known, but I still think it's worth more than that man. :D
A very worthwhile and useful presentation. Well done! I often wonder why Microsoft leaves this kind of tutorial to others.

Personally, I check all of my Settings every time there is a Windows update... my Settings always change themselves. I talked to Microsoft about this & they don't seem to care that it is annoyingly UN-user-friendly. Control Freaks!!!
Joe Johnson - Well said! LOL - That's why I'm looking into free OSs for the future... nothing to lose & potential gain.
Joe Johnson this is misleading. Ubuntu asks if users want to send error reports and usage statistics, you are asked during the installation process if you are ok with that (it's one checkbox, not convoluted settings that reset after an update like in Windows 10).

Manjaro has a toxic community? Well that's interesting, I always though they were noob friendly and want to establish themselves as arch for humans. Must be different personal experiences.

Exactly. Downloads are much *much* faster from one PC to another on your LAN. This setting should be kept on.

Joe Johnson win 10 is win 7 strapped with MS BS and spyware and a newer prettier GUI as the disguise.
@@iforgotmyusername0 Newer GUI yes, prettier - Not hardly! It's the ugliest GUI since Win3.1.
that was very useful - I followed nearly all of them

To enable /disable hidden files and folders there is a keyboard shortcut.
In the windows explorer window press Alt + V + HH
Change the Advanced Update settings update channel to the business setting for 'feature updates' (aka 'this is where we use the public to bug test new versions). This will delay twice yearly version updates by at least a couple of months while all the bugs are ironed out. You can't do this in the home version sadly.
Alternatively go back to Windows 7 for a quiet life and none of this crap- sadly you may be out of luck on some newer laptops with drivers though.

Any suggestion on what tweaking software that can set your Windows 10 to best performance, security and privacy?
very helpful!
That was a great help many thanks
Thanks kindly. I finally picked up a new computer that has Widows 10 on it. I resisted upgrading until now. I actually enjoyed XP and probably 7 the most. :)
