News: The Nokia 6 Is Finally Coming to the US (Maybe)

The Nokia 6 has been out since January, releasing in China before having a slow trickle of releases throughout the year.

How To: Add Documents, Downloads, Pictures, & Other Folders to the Windows 10 Start Menu

The Start menu has definitely seen many changes over the years—from the traditional menu that was present from Windows XP to 7, to the Start screen in Windows 8, to the hybrid of the two in Windows 10.
