[QUOTE=Andre Gomes;47852699]Upgrade versions: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/q2dtYhj.png?1[/IMG][/QUOTE] Wow, imagine going from Windows 7 fucking Starter to 10 and then feel what life's like without cancer.
[QUOTE=Hellsing4682;47852395]I almost spat out my coffee this morning thinking it was fucking malware or something.[/QUOTE] You know, this little button's going to freak out everyone who knows computers, and it's not going to bother the illiterate. Weird little bit of irony, that.
Anybody got it installed, and is it any good? I'm skeptical to upgrade for some reason.
What if I don't want to upgrade to Windows 10? How do I remove the upgrade tag in the bottom right? Also the moment I saw it I had a heart attack thinking it was malware, much like other people.
[QUOTE=CryoDragon;47852931]What if I don't want to upgrade to Windows 10? How do I remove the upgrade tag in the bottom right?[/QUOTE] Click the arrow, click "customize," find "GWX," and click "hide icon and notifications." Poof, it's gone.
Or uninstall the update. I personally don't have anything on auto-update.
Gotta say i'm really excited to upgrade from 7-10
Would I still have to do backups when upgrading to Windows 10?
[QUOTE=Hellsing4682;47853080]Would I still have to do backups when upgrading to Windows 10?[/QUOTE] It is advised, yes.
If I went with the TP and kept it until the full release, what edition would I get? Home or Pro?
[QUOTE=Daemon White;47853094]If I went with the TP and kept it until the full release, what edition would I get? Home or Pro?[/QUOTE] As far as I can tell, it would be based on the CoE that came on the computer, or the key that you purchased and were using with win7/8.
[QUOTE=Daemon White;47853094]If I went with the TP and kept it until the full release, what edition would I get? Home or Pro?[/QUOTE] What's your current licence? Then go from there
What is the price for Windows 10 if you don't have 7 or 8 to upgrade from for free?
Weird i still havent got my alert to reserve yet. Im running legit 8.1 and updated.
[QUOTE=ThePanther;47853324]What is the price for Windows 10 if you don't have 7 or 8 to upgrade from for free?[/QUOTE] The same as any other Windows release basically.
right, told the launcher to pester me on July I just hope that general software support on release won't be shit (I know that some games for instance refuse to run above 30FPS on W10)

[QUOTE=Levelog;47853689]I'd imagine that an actually released operating system will have a lot more effort behind it from developers than a tech preview.[/QUOTE] you never know.
So I installed the technical preview as my main OS when I upgraded to an SSD. I pull my legit Windows 8.1 Pro key off my old hard drive before I formatted it. How do I go about reserving a 10 Pro key? Or will those of us in the insiders get free pro upgrades to RTM/Release? I'd ask on the insider hub but I cannot figure out how to ask a question.
I don't know whether this is the right place to ask but I've got every Windows 8.1 update and I still haven't got the Get Windows 10 App, am I missing something?
To those who've been using Windows 10 builds thus far, is there a noticeable difference in performance on both desktop applications and gaming? I'm also skeptical because when I bought my laptop almost 2 years ago, it had a really big issue with Windows 8.1 after I updated to it from Windows 8 where the key wouldn't automatically load, and TL:DR, Microsoft threatened to charge me criminally for "pirating" until I had to re-enter a different key than I was given by finding it through Belarc Advisor and the issue was resolved. :v:
I just recently got myself invested in looking up what windows 10 will do. dumb question. but from all of the experiences you guys have with it. how is it? will it be a worth upgrade from 8.1?
if you are on 8 you should instantly move to 10. if you're on 7 like me.... I dunno I love this OS more than I can say it hasn't given me 1 single problem I might switch IF directx 12 does prove to do something amazing like physx. But as it stands right now I don't feel like reinstalling everything again. And that notification that you get by installing some of the recent updates does not help change my mind.
[QUOTE=The mouse;47856196]I don't know whether this is the right place to ask but I've got every Windows 8.1 update and I still haven't got the Get Windows 10 App, am I missing something?[/QUOTE] Probably the app is being told gradually to present itself.
Has anyone had experience with any Microsoft Lifechat headsets on Win10? I had a hell of a hassle yesterday because of mine. Was on 8.1, Nvidia's drivers kept fucking up so GPU accelerated programs wouldn't open. I decided to upgrade to 10 TP since I was formatting anyway, only to discover that EVERYthing works fine EXCEPT my Lifechat LX3000. Everything works perfectly until I start to use the microphone to talk to friends, then it suddenly shuts off the microphone. From there I have to disable it and re enable it for it to even register any input, but making calls still doesn't work. Couldn't get anything to fix it so I had to format again back down to 8.1 (which was a PITA without a USB or optical drive) Everything else works perfectly and I love the interface so much. Do you guys think the issue is down to the OS not being final or some driver changes in the OS itself? I made sure to install any relevant software for the headset. This is the only thing keeping me from Win10 at the moment.
