If you have used Windows 7 or Windows XP, you know that these operating systems allow you to create ad-hoc wireless connections between computers. You could use them to create a wireless network between multiple computers or to share the internet connection that was available on one of them. If you have Windows 10 Anniversary Update or newer, then you are in luck as you can create your mobile hotspot with just a few click or taps, as you will see later in this guide. Unfortunately, if you use Windows 8.1 or a Windows 10 version that was released before Anniversary Update, then you might have noticed that you cannot do that quickly, at least not by using a visual interface. Even so, with the help of the Command Prompt and a few commands, you can still turn your laptop into a Wi-Fi access point. Here is how:

Do you want to stop Windows 10 Fall Creators Update from installing, when it arrives on October 17th, 2017? If you have Windows 10 Pro, Windows 10 Education or Windows 10 Enterprise installed, you can postpone the upgrade for at least four months or until February 2018. Here’s how to delay feature updates in Windows 10, for quite a long time:

When you search for something on the internet using the Microsoft Edge browser, by default, you’ll see the results that are provided by Bing - Microsoft’s search engine.

If you want to change the default search engine used by Microsoft Edge, from Bing to something else, read this tutorial:

Picture this: your smartphone is like a book. Every action you take corresponds to a page of the book. You want to check your next appointments, you open the book and turn the pages, stopping at the page labeled “Calendar”; you want to make a phone call, you go to the page called “Phone.” If every page corresponds to an app or feature on your smartphone, then what should correspond to the Table of Contents? Well, the Table of Contents would be the launcher app, the first thing you see after you turn on your smartphone, the central app you use to reach everything else. That first screen of the launcher is called the “home screen.” Fortunately, the home screen is never something standardized and impersonal, but instead, it is one of the most customizable and personalizable aspects of an Android device. You can add shortcuts to your most frequently used apps, and you can even have interactive widgets to help you do whatever it is that you most frequently do on your smartphone, like setting the alarm, monitor your device's battery consumption or control your music player. In this tutorial, we will show you the ways in which you can customize your Android device's home screen so that it fits your personality and preferences:

You probably know that you can use special symbols and characters from fonts installed on your Windows computer or device. Character Map is the best tool for finding and selecting those. But what about making your own special characters in Windows instead of using symbols created by others? Yes, you can do that. In this guide, we will show you how to create and save your unique symbols using Private Character Editor. They can be inserted into any document, whenever you need, as long as you intend to use them for your own use only. If you are curious to see how it works, read this tutorial:

Windows 10 devices can be configured to download and upload Windows Update files from and to other Windows 10 PCs on the local network or the internet. That is a good thing for both users and Microsoft, as it can make Windows Updates arrive faster on our devices. However, it can also be a bad thing if you use a metered connection and each additional megabyte costs you money. It can also be a drag if your internet connection speed is not very fast and you do not want to slow it down, even more, when your Windows 10 PC uploads Windows Updates to others. Fortunately, starting with Fall Creators Update, Windows 10 lets you control how your bandwidth is used for Windows Updates. Here is everything you should know about this new feature:
