Now most of us with laptops and PCs use broadband connections (Cable, FiOS, DSL, Satellite) which are, for the most part, (in the USA) come with unlimited data. However some of you use 4G or 3G wireless connections with you laptop or desktop \u2013 at least some of the time, and most of these are not unlimited. And some of you just might find it interesting to know how much data you\u2019re using.<\/p>\n<p>So if you\u2019re using Windows 10, this what you do.<\/p>\n<p>Start \u2014&gt; Settings \u2014&gt;Network &amp; Internet \u2014-&gt;Data Usage<\/p>\n<p>If you do all that, you see this:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/win10-data-usage.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve highlighted my data usage in green.

So I\u2019m back using Windows Mail in Windows 10 and surprisingly it runs better on Windows 10 than it runs on Windows 7 or Windows 8.1. Is this a hint from Microsoft that they\u2019re about to bring Windows Mail\/Outlook Express back? Probably not, however it is odd that it works better in Windows 10 than it worked in Windows 7 or Windows 8x.
