After a few clicks and wiping Win10 from a laptop I had stopped using due to last Win10 update rendered the cooling fan unable to spool to high speed to keep it from over heating.
About 30 minutes or less Win10 was gone Linux 19.1 Cinnamon with Kernel 4.2 was running - I must say SCREAMING FAST.
Hence enter Mint - problem was solved on the laptop

Fan working OK on the lappie now that just Mint is there?
If either of you wants to have some core temp and fans monitoring, start a new Thread in, say Hardware, we can tell you there some options you can try. They can be installed from Terminal or from your Synaptic Package Manager, both of which you can make friends of. They include but are not limited to psensor (GUI) and lm-sensors (Terminal).
Nice to see two "new-minters" getting acquainted, it is hard to go wrong starting your Linux journeys with a Mint.
(Wizard disappears in a puff of smoke, sucking on a Mintie)
so the cooling fans don't work? And also with windows 10 there's an option to revert back to windows 7 in recovery.
I use an app called>>>>> speccy.<<<<< for temperatures. other than this app here you are looking into getting into Bios / cmos territory this app is not compatible with Linux.

Keep in the back of your mind that end of life (EOL) for win7 is november 2020.
I have not read back through your post to discover what you still use win 7 for.
