What's a CD?

Microsoft scan your PC to see if it's suitable for 10. If they find any extreme hardcore porn on your drive they won't let you have it.

Right click > properties > Check the hidden box >apply> Ok. That seemed to work for me as I got the upgrade, so they didn't find a thing

You mean these are no longer used?

so apart from the settings menu not appearing as it should, nor the user account settings, or the display settings.... the scroll function on the mouse pad no longer works... smashing!!!

In fact i can't see any improvements over 7.... no wonder they're giving it away!

I think i might actually be back on W7 by the end of the day.

My experience with it so far has been almost perfect, I'd be surprised if anybody believed it would be free of bugs when they downloaded it when taking into consideration it has only just been released. It's also only free for a year.

Give them a chance to iron out any creases.

Still waaaaaaaaaaaaaiting for the nod from Microsoft

setting update and security/recovery

ah yes, of course... that'll be accessible via the settings window that closes no sooner it's opened (for me).

even trying to get to it via 'search' does the same thing, it opens and closes before i can do anything. Thanks Mr Gates for this massive free turd you've given me!

err.... surely they should do that before they release it. Thank God they don't manufacture cars or trains or boats or planes

I've already made my mind up... i want XP back!


edit... ok they released a workaround for the issues regarding the settings window (here)... which means i can go back to 7 the easy way.

still not impressed with it... it's windows 8.1 with corners

Now I've figured out I don't have to wait for it, I can just go and download it, the PC is on it's way.

I have been running a beta version as a virtual machine since Jan so I'm looking forward to seeing what's been improved.

EDIT: It seemed rude not to tell you how to skip the wait http://www.cnet.com/how-to/jump-the-line-and-get-windows-10-right-now/
