Foreword:
Upgrade from Windows 8.1 Home to Windows 10 Home and later clean installation of Windows 10 Home on Toshiba Satellite C75 A6-5200 7370, using newly formatted partiton, resulted in both occasions in notably slower slower performing system.
Clean installation of Windows 10 Home on HP Pavilion i3-2300Mhz laptop system resulted in smooth and well performed, quick responsive system, even after clean installation was loaded with additional time-to-load consuming applications.
Possible slowdowns for first system could be following:
1. Upgrade
* upgrade took about 3 hours to complete
* upgrade related conflicts.
2. Clean install
* when clean install was completed, system was slightly slower than equal system under Windows 8.
* being loaded with additional application system performance decrased.
* swithcing from Microsoft account to local Administrator accont made perfromance to notably increase
* there was unexpected shotdown wich could involve damaging of startup files
Installation
- Download Windows 10 ISO using Media Creating Tool or try creating bootable USB using with same utility, but turn off antivirus first.
- In case ISO is downloaded, turn off antivirus real time scanner and use Rufus to create bootable USB.
* Note: Win7USB tool won't work as UEFI BIOS does not recognize such USB disk. Even if UEFI is changed into CSI in BIOS, format
procedure will start but with no success as modern hard drive root partitions are of GDI type and it can't be formatted without UEFI support.
- Rufus settings: MBR UEFI and exFAT or LargeFAT (default)
- Go PC settings -> Repair -> Boot from UEFI USB device
New installation of Windows 10 Home was completed on formatted and clean partition.
Graphic adapter drivers were obtained through Device manager - Driver Updated, this resulted in performance increase
AMD Chipset drivers were located as separate installation pack and applied, this resulted in perfomance increase
System was loaded with equal applications and is performing as equal system under Windows 8
Conclusions
Fresh installation might be best start.
Install graphic drivers using forced update in device manager or Windows update (later try installing larger graphic driver pack)
Install separate chipset drivers (AMD in Toshiba case)
Depending on system capacity swith to local account logging
Activation
Windows can be activated after an upgrade or after clean installation when Product Key of an Windows 7/8 installation already activated
on same computer has to be entered.
Post-Installation Notes:
Remote desktop functionality
Windows 10 Home does not have Remote Desktop server functionality and can't connect to other Home based system. To resolve this
use third party software (TeamViewer) or checked solution at: http://www.softwareok.com/?seite=faq-Windows-10&faq=129
Updates
Windows updates takes priority while downloading and can slow or stop other parallel downloading streams
Onedrive - local account
OneDrive can be activated as a service based on Microsoft account while local account is used for system logon
Office installation
Same product key can be used multiple times under different Windows version hosted on one computer.
