To see how much disk space is free, hold down ALT and double-click the icon for the drive in the This PC window. You can solve disk space problems by accessing Storage in Settings or Disk Clean-up. To free disk space, try emptying the Recycle Bin. Deleted files and folders are saved in the Recycle Bin until you empty it. You can use File Explorer to see all the file son your computer. You can use Paint (normally launched by clicking Start, scrolling down to Windows Accessories, clicking Windows Accessories, and then clicking Paint) to draw pictures and view bitmap files. When a folder is open, you can press BACKSPACE to open a folder one level higher. Use Preview Pane in File Explorer to preview a document without opening it by clicking a document. When you display files in the Details view, you can sort them by clicking the column headings. To sort the files in reverse order, click the column heading once more. You can right-click anywhere to see a menu of available commands. You can try many useful programs by clicking Start, scrolling down to Windows Accessories, and then clicking Windows Accessories.

You can also take your phone with you and allow your computer to lock automatically; this is called Dynamic Lock.
Windows defender stopped
I can see here that a lot of people are experiencing problems lately with windows defender, just as I have. What is happening? My laptop was in sleep mode for 4 days, working just fine before and now suddenly the windows defendeer isn't working and the threat protection can't be restarted. New tabs aren't working, I can only reach websites through those tabs that were alreay open when I left the computer 4 days ago. Seems to be some major problem, what do you suggest?

Third party involvement..
I've always liked windows in the past. I just now started using computers again for work after around twenty years. It is taking time to get used to windows with micrososft. It seems that it is to obvious that a third party is in my computer. Compared to setting up my Mac Notebook, windows has been a complete headache in many ways. Is there a way to use windows 10 without it being obvious that a third party is working with windows? Also it seems not to link to google properly, I had to download chrome just to be able to keep working, I would like to use windows again.
