Windows 10, Settings, Apps, you can remove a lot but I don't bother. Just get a big hard drive.

MS worked out the bugs in 10. Seems to be working just fine now with the upgraded drive for me.
IT'S JUST BORIS!

First of all, congratulations! I know that you must be very proud of your new system.
I am using a quite old system--an Acer CPU coupled with a Dell monitor and keyboard--and the hard drive is a mere 232 GB (which is probably a bit less than tiny, in these days of terabytes, rather than gigabytes).
And I am still using Windows 7. (I am familiar with it, and see no need for an upgrade--or, more precisely, a mere change for its own sake).
I see that you are using Google Chrome. I do have Chrome--as well as Mozilla Firefox--but I really prefer to use Internet Explorer 10 for most things.
Again, however, I sincerely congratulate you on your new computer!

Amazon tells me my computer will arrive today before 8PM. That last time they said that the package arrive a 7:56 PM.
Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.
I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

It might delete cortana, which I don't want to do. Does it allow you to pick what it deletes?

Thank you. I had IE, Chrome, Firefox and the new one that Common mentioned which I was trying out, on my old laptop. I am partial to Chrome but I like to have alternatives.

Do a search for Classic Shell. It's a free program that brings back the Win7 desktop to Win10.
I installed it on dozens of Client's computers and they love it.
