Windows 10 tweaks for audio

Anyone have a good link for tweaking Windows 10 for ultimate audio?  2 reasons.  I went from 8.1 to 10 on my main cptr.  On that one I had Jim Roseberry help me optimize it.  I wonder if those settings changed.  I am guessing the windows ones did but the bios didn't.  The 2nd reason is that I have bought an ACER with an i5 loaded, with windows 10.  I don't expect to get the same performance out of that that I do with my main one but it should offer improvement over the 10 year old unit that it will be replacing

    I don't have any tweaks other than setting the Power Plan for High Performance.  
    But, I don't do a lot of MIDI or projects with a lot of tracks (most of mine are 12 tracks or less).
     
    I disable on-line when I record to avoid any potential interruptions.

    With most modern systems tweaking isn't really necessary.  When it comes to w10 I don't tweak but remove annoyances. Going from W7 to W10, no wow factor for me.  There are some things I do like about w10 like the apps.   I don't have to go to a weather page or download those spyware apps.
