Very helpful. I had uninstalled Start8 before upgrading to Win10, just in case, because it was problematic on a Gateway all-in-one earlier, not easy to uninstall afterwards. I have not yet tried installing Start10 on my HP, because I'm happy enough with the new Start supplied by Win10.

I have already downloaded the new Start10 file, in order to eventually install on the PCs with the new Windows10 OS in place. Whenever I tried uninstalling Start8 using the native Windows "program uninstall" feature, I wa
