Thanks for your input on this issue. I was a bit apprehensive about even broaching the subject since there were a multitude of others who were making the same please for aid re: Windows 10. After reading through so many of them it became obvious to me that each person was experiencing different issues at the outset. It seems that was also the case with you as well. I'm certain that it would be no different for me. I use my PC at home for both work and play. To that end I've been musing over the idea of taking my internal hard drive out an making it an external hard drive. I'd be replacing it with a larger disk that is Windows 10 OS and it could serve as my internal drive. (Many of my work related applications are moving to W10 - so at some point I'll have no choice but to make the switch - Ugh!!!) I'd covet your thoughts about my idea. :smile: Thanks and best regards, Jeffrey.
