Anyone trying Windows 10

With Killer Instinct confirmed for W10 I'll upgrade for sure later

I've found that my own copy of Win 10 has tried to install and failed... 7 or 8 times.
(I know there's a work around, but I'm more interested in finding out the cause )

Having this occur I think may be somewhat of a blessing, however, as the number of issues and qualms that've been popping up since release suggest that rushing head-long (Even with knowledge onboard) might be worth avoiding until such a time they're remedied &/or rectified.

Funny that apparently 90% of I.T. businesses in Australia are looking to adopt the O/S, its "Free" upgrade cost being a factor I wonder?

Anyone concerned about the "unique advertiser ID".

I installed it on my desktop & it destroyed the audio drivers. I've since reset it back to 8.1 & it's working better then before.

Dunno if I can be assed trying it again, maybe tomorrow

Another thing holding me back: Driver incompatibility - Waiting for manufacturers to catch up could be worth the wait too.

Did you end up trying again, man?

saw the offer pop up on my screen , but did not go for it. I'm okay with the current windows, usually these upgrades tend to botch things up....

I must be one of the few who have had no issues other than having to do a Java update for my media server.

I installed mine last night. Annoyingly I magaed to opt for the "Express install" which allowed W10 to get all stalky on my arse and means I have spent longer than I want to roaming around looking at all the nooks and crannies so I can opt out of all their stalky bizzo.

So far it's ok.

Better than Vista.

I just wish I could easily uninstall the useless apps that I will never use. Xbox, for example....

Also still annoyed it auto logins to the last user if you have multiple user accounts from a shutdown. sigh. But upgrading went smoothly, aside from that. I probably missed the express option opt out as it was initially looking at me in Japanese at the time.

I've got to say I'm finding it amusing how many people are saying this is better than Vista or other horrendous versions of Windows.

It's like complimenting an ice cream saying it tastes better than dog food.
