Kurios

that.. would be incredible.. sounds like a broken windows install if anything.
cmd as admin the following stuff:
sfc /scannow dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth while that runs, check out event viewer if there's any spicy stuff in the application or system log.

HP does have "support assistant" it's WAY bloated for a driver utility, but it should at least be able to guide you trough stuff like battery calibration and bios updates (and any odd-ball drivers..) if needed.

if you're not fond of "dumbed down for the consumer" there's also HP Image Assistant, it doesnt say it'll support omen, but if it does, it's great (if not a bit dense...)

Not necessarily.
 
You could just use a partition manager software to shrink the C partition (or the one where you have Windows installed) after you move some stuff to another partition.
Then you can use free drive cloning software (Samsung has one on their website which should work with any SSD, not just theirs, and Macrium Reflect is another free option) to clone just the C partition to the new SSD.
 
Some cloning programs will also have the option to reduce the C partition size to fit onto the SSD, without you having to do it manually.
 
Buy the SSD and simply try to use the cloning software and see if you can clone to the SSD.
If you can't, you don't lose anything.
If the software says your C drive is too big to clone to SSD, move some stuff around, play with a partition manager software to shrink C etc..

Step one is that the ssd MUST be larger, so if your hard drive is 1TB, you need to get a 2TB ssd, then it’s just a simple clone over and you should be good for the most part.
Bit of advice, get a tlc ssd instead of qlc, your old drive is probably full and that means you risk starting past the slowdown point for qlc.

Should know by tomorrow

Linus, Linus media group, and other people. I want to apologize for losing my cool, but after reading what pApA was saying, I had to come down from the rafters, sorry I don't do closets, can't see, hear, or learn in there. I did not mean to criticize him or anybody else.  He just seems to want to be argumentative and it annoyed me greatly.

@UnSimpleCurioso The ViewSonic TD2230 seems to be a good monitor for your needs. It's 22" 1920x1080 60Hz IPS Monitor with according to this review has a response time of 7ms and has good color accuracy. Also right now it can be found on Newegg for $250

there's bulk rename utility, but i'm not sure if it'll do what you want, worth a look either way tho.

Thank you my friend, because that's what I do, I try to help as many people in this community as I can. You guys rock! We rock! ??

As long as the solutions they offer are appropriate for the problem, I see zero problem with that.

Does a couple of SeaGate's employees just go around and search anything backup/HDD related in this forum and then advertise their products lmao

Once the back up has been completed you can try tools to organize your files like this one: http://www.dropitproject.com/

Download the source, extract it, navigate to FreeFileSync/Source and run "make -j5"

Our company owns three small data centers in Florida (less than 100 servers in each location). My team is responsible for balancing resources between locations and staff needs. 
 
Every employee working in our company, and most of our contractors, work from virtual machines (VPSs) in our data centers. These virtual machines run on all three applications mentioned above- VirtualBox, Hyper-V and VM Ware, depending on the needs of the individual user.
 
VirtualBox is the easiest to setup, requires the fewest amount of resources, and affords the easiest way to move, backup or copy a VPS to another machine- simply by copying the single VM file it creates. We run several hundred virtual machines across our entire network, and more than 100 of them have been running on VirtualBox since 2014. It's an outstanding solution for users who want an easy, reliable way to run a handful of VM's on their machine for personal or small business use.
 
As a side note, one of the test servers in my office runs an older AMD 6 core cpu with only 16GB ram. I have 9 Virtualbox machines running at the same time on it, with no major issues. VirtualBox does a great job managing and sharing resources between multiple VM's.
 
Hyper-V does have a few advantages regarding stability and speed (because it's built directly into Windows), however it has some rather large drawbacks. Setting up a Hyper-V VM requires creating a "Virtual Switch" to allow your VM access to your network. If done incorrectly the setup process can permanently reserve network ports in your machine for VM's, which can create network problems for your main windows box. Simply removing Hyper-V won't fix this issue in many cases, requiring a complete reinstall of Windows itself. Hyper-V's main advantages are mostly targeted towards enterprise networks and clustered server environments. In addition, backing up or moving a Hyper-V vm is incredibly slow and there are many things that can go wrong to break the process, unless you purchase expensive third-party software.
 
VMWare is 3-4 times more expensive than any other Virtual solution on the market, is less powerful and feature-rich than Hyper-V, and is only worth considering for large enterprise networks and data centers with an unlimited IT budget for purchasing Hyper-V licenses and massive rack servers with lots of CPU's and ram. If your company meets this criteria, VMWare does offer a few advantages over the other two (like hardware and resource partitioning). 
 
Hope this helps!
