Re: Windows 10 for free?
also, in settings (i'm in 'system,' 'apps and features' at the moment) you can disable all of those annoying things that you don't want anyway (get skype!) and can't find in 'uninstall.' I've already peeked in 'settings,' 'privacy,' and i can tell i will be doing some disabling there, too.
