my bro windows 8.1 pro OEM
i did do it this method http://venturebeat.com/2015/07/28/how-to-f...0-update-files/

i see windows 10 then say failed

i dont get tray icon windows upgrade

After about 5-6 attempts, I finally got the clean install that I want.

First step is to upgrade from 8.1 to activate 10. Then after that, you can clean install anytime, as many times as you want.

Working smooth, fast .... Didn't bother to dual boot and already removed 2nd SSD.

no. it's for your record if ms support ask you about it.

rufus is another handy tool to create a bootable usb with w10 iso files in this case. if you used the w10 media creation tool to create bootable usb, then you don't need rufus.

i didnt choose media creation to usb flash... i choose ISO instead.. thus need rufus to make iso bootable

Just use the media creation tool to download and upgrade.

at least yours is soundcard... mine's wifi not working... i think that's worse

I taught IE suppose to be replaced with Edge? How come I can run both?

error to setup cannot upgrade

create ISO 1st, then only run setup.exe

From my experience, the upgrade install (even if you select "Keep nothing") can still be a bit buggy, with user profile corruption etc. Best is to completely clean install, booting from the ISO, after the first upgrade.

clean install need key or not? or just skip

All my [censored] Windows 7 upgraded and activated

so geng? how come my * version no windows icon that let upgrade pop up. My lappie OEM got.

Skip, and if the upgrade from 7 or 8.1 was activated properly, 10 will be activated automatically.

runtime broker process eat my processor usage at 20%, had to disable it. Love my Windows 10

-.-?
Does your WIN10 still shows the blue colored "Next" as shown by this screenshot posted by nuel92?

If the blue "Next" under 'Windows Edition" is there, this means your WIN10 is NOT ACTIVATED even if the "Windows Activation" section is showing it as activated

Quick question guys...

Q: is there a way to make the virtual desktop switching become "infinite loop"? Let say I'm at no.1 and still want to go left, it will go to the LAST one.
I find it extremely cool to multitask with virtual desktop as it got the sliding animation But I still need two macro buttons to do the switching, will be great if can do with just one.

Q: previously in Tech Preview my phone connect fine via USB, but this time with Release, it does recognize my phone (Nexus 4) but it don't have a driver for it... I now can't do USB file transfer... There was a guide for older Windows say find the "Portable Device > Generic MTP driver" but I can't even find "Portable Device" in the driver selection list... USB Thetering works though...

wow nice, thanks

because some legacy website not support edge, so microsoft remain IE

Do you guys get assigned with generic product key or specific keys after upgrading to Windows 10?

The generic key for Windows 10 Pro would be VK7JG-NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T which is the same key used by Windows Insider Program.

You can check using ProduKey by Nirsoft.
