Is there a corresponding categorization in Windows 10?
I prefer to download and apply...

I have read on Lenovo's website about Lenovo Service Bridge. But I do not understand that much. No matter what Lenovo Service Bridge is for something or why I've used it for it? But I clicked on the icon, and then the program started running. And now more days after, the program is running yet...

When enabling from disbaled state it should take the previously (eventually in the past) set partition location and file size.

I was using Win7 on an HD with all the programs like Excel. Recently, I installed Win 8.1 on a new SSD and disconnected the HD with Win7 on it. Can I, and if yes, how do I uninstall Win7 from the HD without affecting other program on the disk which I would like to use with Win8.1?
Thanks.
