Thanks. :)
I've gotten used to using the Windows Key and and the I key and then the search function for anything I need.
It's a matter of learning a different way to get to what you need. There are times the search function is actually much quicker.

Up and running... The install seemed a lot quicker than previous ones by about 30 minutes

Everything appears to work

It was a faster upgrade than the other times.
Even Avast 2016 beta started without any problems.

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!

Here's a curious situation.
Has anyone run across this message when trying to UPGRADE a machine from Windows 10 HOME to Windows 10 PRO?
Have tried several times.
