where is Windows 10 forum?

Question
-
As I click through the Forum category drop down, there is no category for Windows 10 problems or for just Microsoft Windows problems.
My windows 10 will not do an update and I cannot determine if my drive is GPT or MBR. What forum should I use?

Hi,
go here for Windows 10 General or Windows 10 Installation, Setup, and Deployment on TechNet.
Microsoft Answers might be helpful as well.

Those look like they're under MSDN (development focused) branding. For IT pro focused forums check here under TechNet branding.
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home
and consumer forums here on microsoft answers.

There is no Windows 10 forum so I post here. Please advise me as to where I should post.
Recently installed Windows 10 on Samsung 860 EVO SSD
Windows complains that it cannot update. To fix I must determine if I configured with GPT or MBR.
Found instructions here:
First three steps are:
1 Press the Windows key + R. In the Run window that comes up, type diskmgmt.msc and press Enter. The produces the below dialog.
2 Press-and-hold or right-click on the Disk (such as Disk 0) that contains the SRP, and select Properties. That produces this:
3 Choose the Volumes tab.
Note that there is no tab Volumes. The instructions are wrong.
So I did another search asking how to determine GPT or MBR and it stated to do the same steps.
I think I selected GPT as it is the newer method. How can I verify the selection that I made?

Here are the options available to me in the drop down for Forum Category. I scrolled a little bit for each capture .
Please note that Windows 10 is not present in there. If you have any contacts within the Microsoft Formums group (or what ever the people that work on the forums are called) please inform them that there is no way to discover the Windows 10 forum.
You have provided the link I need and I thank you.
However please leave this un-answered so that maybe someone will take notice and fix the problem.
