OT: windows 10?

All,

I have a laptop that was updated to windows 10. How do I shut off the first-off pictures that pop up? They are nice, but I think they cause too much info transmission.

I think they take up too much. I think they slow the laptop. I have to hit the escape key to get to the password part.

Please forgive my un-knowledge. I am not savvy.

Short answer is that you really can't , as annoying as they are they don't really slow your computer's start up procedure at all . The data they use is minuscule compared to the start up menus of some printer and photographic programs .
 
I don't mind the pictures, can't you just click on the center of the screen to open it up.
 
I wish I was better at fixing tractors than computers, but that's how it turned out I guess!

Use the Windows shortcut - The windows 'button' (between the left ctrl and alt keys) and the letter I or i (eye)

(You can also just type 'Personalization' in the search window by the start button or go to control panel)

This gets you to the 'Personalization' screen
click on the 'lock screen' title on the left hand pane
scroll to the bottom and slide the button to 'off' under 'Show Windows background picture on the sign-in screen'
X out of this screen to get back to what you were doing

I've gotten a lot of help on this forum and gladly return the favor!
 
Hope this is correct. There are a lot of good service guys who can reload plain old windows 7. Hope this helped.
 
Or you could download "Classic Shell" and it will make Windows 10 look like and operate like Windows 7. It's a free download.
 
I'm not sure what to tell you, but I'm in the same dilemma. I should upgrade my laptop, but I can't get any without Windows 10.

I went to a three hour class on Windows 10 a couple of weeks ago, and I still don't like it.

When I wanted a new desktop last fall, I bought a new, blank 1TIG hard drive, a 4gig RAM card, a Windows 7 installation disc and put one together out of spare parts. (I'm on it now).
