I’m running W-7 and getting regular pop ups bugging me to upgrade to 10.
Now that it’s been out for a while and horror stories seems to be diminishing I’m tempted, but a little leary of reported spyware issues.
Not that it matters I suppose, as “Ivan” knows evrything I’m doing all the time, and so does any quasi competent hacker with the slightest bit of interest.

One thing that worries me is reports that 10 will seek out and destroy any non MS OS on the system - such as LINUX, which I have dual booted on to a partition on my HD. Is that so? I don’t want MS to hold a monopoly on my laptop.

Apparently i have to log in to my new install of w-10 with my system PW, which I’ve forgotten and can’t remember where I wrote it down. That might be a problem, eh?

Here’s something I have been seeing for a week now under settings and installations:

Upgrade to Windows 10 Home, version 1511, 10586

Then it says could not update due to error.

What the error is, I do not know because it didn’t say.

Maybe this is a good thing??? I have Win 10 which was installed in July so am not sure about this “upgrade.”

#11- Windows 10 doesn’t recognize my Samsung S6 Galaxy... trying to find drivers now. Worked fine before upgrade.

Step 1: If on WIn 7, turn off updates and ignore the frenzied rush of lemmings to 10.

Just continue to use your computer and refuse to obsess over it like the other team does over their toys.

It is just a tool after all.

Glad I unloaded Windows 10. Not a fan. Back to W7 wish I could go to XP. But I really wish I could fix Windows text. There is an area where one can turn on block text or outlined text in Windows. I inadvertently turned on a text outline and cannot remember how to get back to the pop up to turn it off. Any help would be appreciated.
