I was on Amazon trying to find a good cleaning product for monitors and there are way to many products to choose from, some really cheap and some way to exspenive. I then wanted to find something that could clean all of my devices at home. My Asus computer monitor, Plasma TV, my other LCD/LED...

Also, why when I install programs on my HDD, the programs files still install on the SSD? Example, I installed PokIt, it's a screen capture program. I installed it on the SSD: "E:\Users\*****\Program Files (x86)\PokIt". However, when I took a screenshot, it stores the jpg in the...
