Does it automatically switch based on the best signal strength?
Or does it automatically switch based on some test speed?

If I want to manually change from one connection to the other, how do I do
that?

My two questions are
1. How does Windows automatically decide which to use?
2. How do I manually switch from one to the other?

I am not sure exactly what you are trying to accomplish. What you are
asking sort of makes sense if you have a laptop that you take different
places.

On my desktop computer I have both Ethernet and wireless connections. As
stated Windows 10 picks the fastest connections.

The easiest way to change the connections manually is:

Right click the MSIcon on the lower left of the tool bar;

Click Network Connections;

click Changed Adapters Options;

Enable which ever adapter you wish to use.

In three click you can change your adapter.
