Quoting the Windows page... The Best Windows Ever wasn't 8 supposed to be like that too? In a world of cyber threats, Windows 10 is the most secure Windows ever not counting all the holes that you're gonna have to patch with Windows Update every day starting today for at least half a year Aligned with our more personal computing vision, Windows 10 is more personal and more productive thank you very much, not pruning my current personal setup just to set it up all over again from the scratch Finally, only Windows 10 can offer innovative experiences and new devices oh, so that's a new multiplatforming system that you can use to connect to your Xbox and shit, good thing I don't need it Upgrading to Windows 10 is easy if you have a genuine Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 PC or tablet errrr, wrong. On my genuine 8.1 system I have absolutely no icon on my taskbar, and yet on my sister's pirated 8.1 system this icon does exist. Fuck me, right? To summarize, no I didn't upgrade, and neither do I intend to until they show how good the system really is.

I mean all the extra "xbox shit" is just plain idiotic. I mean who cares about playing xbox via windows 10. I just like it because of the new slick design. Also that new browser is fast. Either way I am sticking to chrome.

I will be upgrading one of my Win 7 PCs. I need to know how to navigate the OS because I do tech support for dumb poeple, many of whom will blindly upgrade without the slightest fucking clue as to what they are doing.... August should be a terrible mega fun month

I heard that you had to pay to use Win10? true or false? Apparently something like a monthly subscription, or like $10 a year.

You wonâ€™t have to pay for some sort of Windows 10 subscription or fee to continue using it, and youâ€™ll even get any new features Microsft adds.

No problem~ Oh, while I'm at it. If somebody decides to upgrade, can you message me how did the process go? I'm quite interested whether it's a clean installation of a new OS requiring you to format your disk or an upgrade process like 8 > 8.1, which keeps everything you owned.

Triumph is going to be upgrading soon. Might wanna check with him maybe next week or something or maybe get him to notify you when he does.

Anybody upgraded to windows 10?

Foxy

I did, and I must say that I really do love it. It is fast, smooth and looks far superior to both Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Just upgraded to the new Windows, and while I can't say that it is running flawlessly, I can say that it's definitely not as bad as I expected, especially the ribbon menu, since it is not intrusive, but is instead hidden until clicked on.
Cortana is working rather well regarding its unfinished state. It's unresponsive at times, but I was able to open a few games with voice commands which I must say are very useful. There are no bugs with voice commands as I've seen being reported by users around the web, but it varies between each user.
There are some program and driver incompatibility problems, but I'll try and sort through those later. For now, I will have to deal with my touchpad driver being uninstalled until I can figure out a solution for it. Firefox's minimize, maximize, and close buttons are overstretched, but that's a minor issue.

yeah Firefox filed complaint to microsoft about many things, and microsoft ignored them, saying indirectly they would listen to only users complaints

You're being spied on regardless of what OS you own lol.

Why would I want another company spying on me?

There is a difference between showing people what I have on my accounts and giving them access to use my name. That is a huge difference. Its as different as someone filming you and faking to be you.

The difference lies in ; "Knowing who you are" and "Using your identity". If I tell someone my name, its not the same as if they are using my name. That is the difference, if you get told; "Only see, no touching". And if you ONLY look, then it is not the same as touching, right?

But how would I be taking your name?

What I am saying is if you would not be happy giving the information that is being collected to a random person then why are you fine with giving it to a random company?

This, it shouldn't really be too much of a problem unless you were a pirate or some other form of illegal activity, right?

I download torrents from time to time, and idk how legal it is to watch loli in sweden ( pretty sure its not legal )

I decided to upgrade, as I was on 8.1 before. I probably wouldn't have upgraded if I was on 7.

I have it, it's amazing but it's a bit laggy at times. But that's to be expected of a new OS.

Well it's not laggy for me. My PC seems like it's faster.

I do many illegal activites, you know even watching anime without paying is illegal? all the torrents, and many other things is illegal, but do they care? I doubt that, they just add this incase of big hackers who have the skill to hack compaines and shit
