    You can upgrade to Windows 10 immediately by running the Media Creation Tool. Here are the instructions:

    http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/07/...dows-10-update

    or

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/w...n-tool-install

    That's how I upgraded ours...
    I finished side-grading my laptop about 10 minutes ago. So far, I didn't do to the features that really pissed me off about 8.1.

    Just the same, thanx.

    Once you feel it's all good, make sure to run a disk cleanup, and tell it to delete your previous version of windows. It's still sitting there in a Windows.old directory in C:\, and takes up a bunch of gigs...

    of course they know some things will break, but who the are they going to call to ask for a fix if not the vendor?

    And we do look into this stuff for apps that makes us good money. That's integral to making a solid product and a solid company.

    Yeah, I'm not downgrading to 10 until we start seeing DirectX 12 games.

    Yup same here. On windows 7 and 8.1

    This is Microsoft we are talking about. No reason to upgrade unless needed.

    also what ppl don't seem to understand is you can't compare an Apple or even Android OS upgrade to a Windows. usually windows upgrades from 3.1 to 95 to 98 to XP,etc were huge major upgrades that rewrote entire core capabilities. This is not even getting into the more complex (NT) version of windows NT, 2000, Server, etc.

    Apple/Google upgrades are cake compared to windows OS upgrades. They are mostly comparable to Windows Service Packs. Of course Apple and Android use the "new OS" bull as a marketing ploy. that's all.

    Now in the last few years with Windows 7, Microsoft is adopting the similar marketing bull scheme as Apple and Android. But make no mistake about it, its still major rewrites so far.

    and again that's not even getting to the uber complex Windows Server versions....

    Thanks for this

    So far I haven't had any issues with any of my apps or drivers.. I like the look of the OS so far, but haven't really had time to around w/ the new features. The SJW's probably wouldn't be happy I made Cortana call me Master IMO

    you're using cortana? don't you have to give Microsoft access to almost all of your personal data for that?

    It's on or off... if it's on:

    - When I use Cortana, what information is collected and where is it saved?

    When you use Cortana, Microsoft collects and uses information including your device location information and location history, contacts (People), voice input, searching history, calendar details, content and communication history from messages and apps, and other information on your device. In Microsoft Edge, Cortana collects and uses your browsing history.

    Yeah, it's up and running, but I don't really see the need to use it much.. Internet searches and launching the occasional app maybe .. If you select to configure the options at install you can turn off several options that confirm data will be shared..

    Seems like this is the model they're going to, just improving Windows 10 from now on. But I don't see the point in being an early adopter for anything. I'm not moving from 7 to 10 until DirectX12 games start coming out, so I probably won't touch it for at least a year.

    Well, with two XP computers still doing fine for the most part, and one windows 7....

    I have no intention of putting that piece of 10 over windows 7, and the other two are too old for it.

    What's so bad about 8.1? It's an OS, it operates your system.

    Don't love it but gotten used to it tbh..it works.


    What I hate is that the task manager doesn't come up as fast like in Win 7.

    I was very happy MSFT made that change for Win 7. It seemed the task manager ran in a higher priority memory space


    But in 8.1 its back to being slow and sometimes doesn't come up. WTF???
