Just got a Lenovo X1 laptop with a fresh Windows 10 install. Going through everything and saw a bunch of Lenovo.Modern.Imcontroller.PluginHost in taskbar. Some sites say it is a virus and some say it has to do with Lenovo. McAfee came free and it picked up nothing, tried malewarebytes and some...

Well, companies not always honoring what they say is a problem a lot of people experience and nothing I can really do about it, as I am not Dell. The 250GB HDD is what is making your computer slow? Which was not included in the original laptop but you bought a service package for it? What are...

Bare in mind the SSD is not set in stone, you can easily buy a 1TB SSD and put it...
