Don't down load win 10

[Greg Dent]

I did and it completely ruined my laptop. It's now in being restored to win 7. It's going to cost me $75 for that to happen. So much for my free upgrade. It got caught in a boot up lòop. Tried everything to fix it even went online for suggestions. Nothing worked. At least I have my Samsung pad.

I prefer updating from a disk or USB stick.  $75 - hmmm that would pay for my gas to KW. Now just to find the time.

[Tortuga]

I updated my laptop when the update was first available and I didn't have any problems. I recently updated the PC without any problems. It is a lengthy process and there were several times I thought it was stuck but I let it go and the update installed without any problems.

 

Did you interrupt the update?

i have some problems to 

 and i wounding if it s why i my DVD converter is not working

I'm find windows 10 awesome, but the one at work was windows 8 anyway, so it's not too much different. I had done a factory restart because son put a virus on it before upgrading so maybe that's why mine is working really well?

[kejedo]

Windows 10 is not my preference.

[New World Explorer]

I use Windows 7 and do not need additional 3 Windows .. Oh well I would upgrade to the balcony though LOL

[stargazer]

Are any of you using legit copies of win? Here in my place even shops sell pirated stuff :0

[Stormswift]

I would only use legit copies.

Installed win 10 at work today - very scary!  But I had  a little issue with the free upgrade from 8.1 to 10 on my home puter, which I can't seem to resolve.

 

Has anyone else had issues saving files to Documents or Pictures folders?

Downgrading is only a couple of clicks if you do it within the first month of upgrading: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/going-back-to-windows-7-or-windows-81

That's an odd question 

[Greg Dent]

The downgrade was erased within 2 weeks of the upgrade. Ticked me off. Got the machine back but now it won't get online downstairs but I have a fix now. Was online with my is pretty for over an hour with my isp. There is no way that I am going to try to download it again.

It depends on where you live :-)

I prefer upgrading from a dvd disk. Less problems.

 

Before you upgrade, Clean your system files/registry of crud and viruses, and remove unused programs, then Defragment.

 

Plop in win 10 disk from within legal windows 7 sp1 or 8.x.

I did the upgrade from 7 about a month after it was first released. It was d/l to my computer for at least a week or two before I got around to upgrading.

 

Have not had any of the problems listed above - or any other problems - works smoothly.

[pnutts]

Forgot to add. With the 2nd release of November refresh, you no longer have roll back provision.

Thus I Always have current system backed up on another drive.

[Greg Dent]

Thats a good idea but when I did it I thought it just reserved it next thing I know it downloaded it. I have no time to even back anything up. I will not be doing it again. I am also turning off MS auto update. 

[Qapla]

It should download to your computer only - then you decide when and if you want to install it - leaves plenty of time to back up your system

I installed win 10 with a CD one day after official release and haven't had any major problem since. I have had some minor problems, but nothing special that a reboot won't fix.

The only problem I experienced was that, when I first started using Win 10, my computer would drop the Internet connection with the router/modem. I would still be on the network, just the Internet portion would "come and go".

 

Then, there was an update for the network device in my computer. Haven't had that problem since.

I upgraded a few months back and am quite happy with it. Much better than Windows 10.

[Sallyforth]

Meant it was much better than Windows 8!

HP Compaq 6000 PC with 6GB of RAM. Original Win 7

 

My upgrade worked only after 4 reboots. Then it would lock up with 98% ram filled and 100% CPU load.

 

I could only power down with the power switch. After several more reboots it settled down to a nice running PC.

 

I think that MS built in some smarter repair apps that fix the PC after a reboot.

[Greg Dent]

It didnt work on my machine. I turned off auto download.
