Go to this PC. Then, select your C drive, and hit, alt enter, and tab twice. You should hear disk clean up. Then, hit enter, and it will take a few minutes, and then, present you, with choices to clean up or not. Check the ones you want to be cleaned, and tab over to ok. Jim

The Defragmentation service is true, as Windows 10 keeps your hard drive defragged constantly so as to maximize the storage space and it's information retrieval. In terms of the Disk clean up, I don't believe this has been automated in Windows 10, but as of Windows 8.1, disk clean up is still a manual task, though, I suppose that you can automate it by setting it as a scheduled task once a week, or so, but again, you can always set Internet Explorer to empty temporary internet files automatically once you finish browsing. That has always been in the Internet Explorer settings, but in terms of emptying out your recycle bin, or cleaning up dump files and/or log files, those you must do manually, since the computer can never know which ones you want to delete and which ones you don't. Like I said above though, I may be incorrect in this statement, to please take it with a grain of salt, as I am not officially using Windows 10 yet, as it has not been reported ready for my computer. Good luck.

I understand that in 10 we do not have to do defrag or disk clean up? Is that correct?I do not have a solid state hard drive, just a great big one, 1 tb.

This command was part of the list of commands that included the IP release and renew commands for your internet, the check disk and disk defrag and other useful utilities that were, and still are, as you can see, useful back in the day. In any case, perhaps someone with an XP computer can pull up the system properties with Windows key+pause, then control Tab to the advanced tab, or, at least, that's what I think it was called, and copy those commands down for us. Unfortunately, all of my computers are Windows 7 and up. LOL.

Had no idea this dialog existed, much less how to find it. Is there a cheat sheet somewhere giving these specific control commands and what they access?

In the resulting dialog box, uncheck the box that says, users must type a password to use this computer, and make sure it's unchecked. Tab to the ok button, and press enter or the spacebar. You'll receive a dialog box prompting you to select the default user and to enter the password associated with that user. Once you select and type in the default username and password, tab to the ok button, and press the spacebar. At this point, you can close the userpasswords2 dialog box, if it's still open, or unless you want to make more advanced modifications in one of the other tabs, and from that point onwards, it should boot directly into the desktop. Keep in mind that if you have User Control turned on, it will prompt you to press the yes button if you want to allow the action. Good luck.
