    Just wanted to comment on the recovery 'stuff'. In my day we used to
    call that 'junk'. I used to always keep that junk, but after years of
    not needing it and erasing the partitions I never looked back. Of
    course that was years later, always hesitated as 'I might need it'.

    I've not had this win10 a week, and already have had to re-install windows, after I screwed around with the BIOS and couldn't recover. When I made the change I should have been in safe mode. But the reinstall was easy and I didn't have anything loaded anyway. my last version was XPpro and I wish it was still supported.
