Anyone using windows 10

Sweety · 01-06-2015, 17:00

It's just flagged up on my laptop that I can now get Windows 10

is anyone using it yet & is it any good or am I better off stopping with windows & for now

jims-terrano · 01-06-2015, 17:04

Its still only pre release versions. Ive stuck pre release versions on an old laptop and they seemed fine. When Windows 10 comes out properly youll be able to upgrade Windows 7 and 8 for free!

Personally I would wait until full version is released later this year.

8.1 is the new Vista

Oh right thought it was the full version due to it showing up for the first time at the bottom of my screen in the icons bit

Just had a look about on the net it's the end of July when the full version is released

Just come up on mine too, so I've accepted it. Apparently it will download automatically when it's ready, I can choose to use it or not (and it's FREE!)

Yeah it happened to me now too on my laptop. It's a small white windows logo down by the clock and when you click on it you get the picture below. As said just a reservation for it basically.

My new lappy is running 8.64 but if I am lucky enough to be flagged for 10 based on clivvy's report I will go for it, Rick

solarman216 · 01-06-2015, 22:02

re jims terrano post, I have said icon and clicked on it, can this be real, 10 for nowt, very unlike microsoft, can this be a scam, they want your email add so is this going to lead to yet more spam, am very unsure, Rick

Not all recent windows have been that good, but you couldn't beat this at the time lol...
