When it's time to upgrade your Windows 10 PC, you'll need to make a lot of decisions. And one of the biggest, whether you're buying a laptop or a desktop, is deciding how much you want to spend. But there's an easy way to offset the total cost of your new computer: sell your old one!
Though it may run slow and feel outdated, you might be surprised at how much money your trusty old laptop could nab. Even a couple hundred dollars can be worth it to you to sell rather than recycle or shove in a drawer to be forgotten.
Before turning that sluggish PC into cold hard cash, though, you'll need to do some housekeeping. From backing up your personal files to wiping the hard drive, set aside some time to ensure your PC is ready for its new owner. 

• Backup your personal files
• Sign out of all your accounts
• Erase the hard drive - better still, replace the drive
• Check system specs - HDD/SSD size, Year, Make & Model, RAM, CPU etc
• List it online

Microsoft may be planning to release Windows 10X in the spring of 2021 but some of the new operating system's features could be coming to Windows 10 sooner than that including a new panel that completely changes how copying and pasting works.
As reported by Windows Latest, in Windows 10 Build 20185 the software giant has added a new panel that allows users to insert emojis, GIFs and even content from their clipboards. The new panel also includes several new features to make it easier for users to add content to their messages, documents and emails.
In addition to being able to access your most recently used emoji and GIFs as well as search for new ones, the panel includes a feature called “Clipboard history” that displays a list of items that users have recently copied to the clipboard.
While there are already clipboard replacements available for Windows, the new panel will offer similar functionality natively and can even be synced across devices.
