Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Windows 10 started out as a kind of booby prize for folks who got suckered into buying Windows 8. Although it still isn't as popular as Windows 7, many of the original kinks are (finally!) ironed out. What hasn't changed, though, is Win10's snooping, and its infuriating insistence on updating itself. There are some tricks, which I discuss in the book.

If you're looking for a rehash of Microsoft's Party Line, you're looking in the wrong place.

I've been writing books for a long time. My first book - "Windows 3.1 Programming For Mere Mortals" - came out at the dawn of the Windows era. Along the way, I've learned that most folks appreciate the straight story, and that's what you'll find in all of my books, including this one. If there's a problem, I tell you about it, and try to steer you around it. If something works well (for example, everybody should enable Restore points!), I not only point you to the feature, I explain in depth how to make it work right -- for you. If you don't need something -- antivirus in Windows 10 being a good example, because Win10 has all the AV you'll ever need -- I warn you to save your money. Lots of money.

The straight story. No sugar coating. I wrote this book for you, not for Microsoft.

Check out the previews for "Windows 10 All-In-One For Dummies." I hope you're impressed.

I write the "Woody on Windows" column at Computerworld, and hold court at AskWoody.com. I also tweet from time to time - no fluff, just the good stuff - @woodyleonhard.

Reliable, Easy to Follow GPS for Windows 10

Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2018

Verified Purchase

The book, which I purchased after switching from a Windows 7 machine, follows the standard Dummies layout. I found the author's writing clear and informative, although I could have done with fewer anecdotes and a slightly more concise presentation. However, in this regard I will state that I also took a two day crash course in Windows 10 at a local college. It was no less rambling and full of anecdote (perhaps more so) than the book. The index in Windows 10 All-In-One For Dummies is very well done and greatly enhances the book's utility as a home reference. As a veteran (sometimes successful, more often not) of the Windows Errors Wars, I would have liked to see, within the constraints of the Dummies format, a broader treatment of glitches and error messages.

Many pages, many illustrations, but lacking in TOC and index.

Many pages, many illustrations, but lacking in TOC and index. I also have comprehensive "Dummies" books for Windows 7 and Outlook, and the clarity of the language and the detailed treatment of most topics in the Windows 10 book is as good or better than the other "Dummies" books. So far I have not read all of the chapters in all of the 10 "books" in the Windows 10 books; however, on four or five topics I have had to think out of my box to find information. For both the table of contents and the index, I have to think of synonyms of other ways of describing the topics. Then I make notes in the TOC and the index for future use.

There is a large section on elementary basics that are easily discovered within a few weeks of using Win 10

Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2016

Verified Purchase

About 1/3 of the volume is of any use to me. There is a large section on elementary basics that are easily discovered within a few weeks of using Win 10, and a large section on software and apps, most of which I don't use and don't want to. The remainder is useful tips and fixes, and more technical how-tos that I am finding interesting and useful. Pretty expensive for just 1/3 of the material, but I'm not sorry I bought it. Worth about $15.00 to me, maybe more to others. I don't think I'm a typical user.

Everything you need to know for Windows 10

Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2017

Verified Purchase

I originally borrowed this book from the library because I am a hands on person and it is so much easier to have a book than looking up things on the rabbit-hole of the Windows 10 website (there's just so many bookmarks I can make people, ARGH!). I was so impressed with it I had to buy it! The author uses humor and illustrations to keep a dry subject fascinating. So well written, easy to follow it covers everything you need to know plus a lot of useful tips and general information. It's just an all around complete guide for Windows 10. It also includes a website by the author with the latest updates. I highly recommend it!

Too big and technical. It is confusing to have several books by different authors with the same title and be vastly different. I had another version that I lost and thought I was replacing it. Definitely not. This one is twice the size (almost a 1000 pages). Ii draws on the assumption that the reader is computer savvy (I'm not or I wouldn't be buying a book titled "windows 10 for dummies"). Each set of directions requires going to other areas of the book to know what I need to do. In other words, I can't get there from here. If I had the time and cared that much, I need to read and memorize the whole book.
If the author had any interest in appealing to a general audience, he would hand this to someone with their first computer and see what happens
Probably not much.

This has everything, at your fingertips. Best feature us to skip around to see the main features. Still, easier to use Google for troubleshooting.

Heavy! Looks like Woody hit it, though. Lots of material to go over, which I haven't managed to do yet, but nothing popped up. No regrets other than my back, and I think the mail carrier may need further repairs.

The essential guide

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2017

Verified Purchase

I have been using Woody Leonard's "Dummies" books for years. They each have saved me countless hours of frustration by telling me how to operate and customize Windows to suit my needs and preferences. Now, I buy a new one whenever I order a computer with a new operating system, and I get one for the office and one for home. Woody tells it like it is, without any undue reverence for Microsoft.

Kept Me From The Cold Dark Depths

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 29, 2017

Verified Purchase

Interesting style makes the studying a lot easier than it might otherwise prove to be for Joe Average. I may be jumping myself up a bit by calling myself Average. Anyway it's one of the better books available at this level. It's the difference between pressing on to try to at least partly tame the dreaded Windows 10 Beast or just jumping in the canal with your PC tied around your neck, leaving a note saying you just couldn't continue to live in such a cruel, computer-run world.

A wide, complex topic clearly explained

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 21, 2016

Verified Purchase

A comprehensive, well written guide. The illustrations designs are a little bland but don't be put off - the content is relevant and clearly explained. The author covers subjects to get novices started and deals with issues relevant to experienced users.The vast nature of the subject means this is a book to dip into to understand specific aspects/issues and this book lets you do that easily. As for some comments about it being "long" - it's a technical reference book, not a novel.

Looked at others before deciding on this. It's written in a conversational style which I like with not too many in depth explanations. Not long started acquainting myself but it's leafy made "compute ring" more enjoyable and I'm 59 so I recommend it.
