Hi everybody, I decided to broaden my knowledge of things Mac by installing Windows 10 into a small partition via Boot Camp on my 2015 MBPr.
Windows is working well and I downloaded and installed Avira Anti Virus (cause it's free) and apart from adding a few bookmarks in Edge and adding email accounts (not my iCloud account) to Outlook I have just been playing around with the new environment.
I have been reading through this forum and noting various problems experienced by other OP's and notice many are using parallels and see suggestions for Paragon software etc.
What I was wondering is are there any specific things this forum would advise I do (or not do) in the early setup of this OS? eg Settings, Preferences or anything that may make windows work well on a 13" MBP. eg. I find the suggested display setting is way too small, what is the best for a 13" display?
Bear in mind I know very little about using Windows and my most recent experience was with XP in my old workplace.
