Windows 10 will fail.

MS Windows always suceed when it's the odd number release:

10- Win 10 (Doomed to Phailed)
9 - Skipped (Succeed)
8 - Win 8 (Failed)
7 - Win 7 (Succeed)
6 - Vista (Failed)
5 - XP (Succeed)
4 - ME (Failed)
3 - Win 98 (Succeed)
2 - Win 95 (Failed)
1 - Windows 3.1 (Suceed)

It's a refined Windows 8. I don't think it will fail. I got no issue with Win 8.1 anyway. It's just those lazy fellas not willing to learn how to use it.

A little fast startup, revamped UI isn't convincing.

That's the best way to test a new operating system.
Or if you have an extra HDD lying around, you could install Windows 10 preview in that.

played with w10 tech preview for a bit just now (with w8.1 pro's built-in virtualization feature on asus.g55). everything works fine.

now i realized that i am not really fond of start button. by default it will boot straight to desktop mode. in the taskbar properties there is an option to show start screen first.

for now.. only one: the command prompt. after so many years they decided to give it some missing 'features'.

Attached Image

the multiple desktops can be called out with win+tab. however for switching between desktops i cannot use arrow keys yet. (must point and click with mouse :/)

I think it's still early to say anything.

all of these are just scratching the surface of windows 10, basic improvement for enterprise
for a whole bunch of consumer features and improvement, and developer stuff we need to wait until next year

it's still early to judge how good is Windows 10
a lot of things will change in final version.

agree. nothing major. just add back start menu and remove media centre are not new reason for me to buy new license again. unless something major like win 7 to win 8.

btw i totally have no problems with win8.1, it takes me a only a few days to get use. only lazy people have transition from win 7 to win 8

No. It won't run for two reasons.

1) WP8 is a ARM device and doesn't use x86/x64 compatible CPU, so it can't understand the normal .EXE file. (WP8 App file comes with extension .APPX)

2) Unless your phone is connected to a Live account that has active developer license (hence unlocked), it won't run applications that's not signed with Microsoft's special e-cert.

giving away free stuff just so un-Microsoft

and nobody forces you to upgrade

well, at least not until they make Windows 8.1 obsolete few years later

although in those years of using it you should be able to fork new money to afford new version of Windows

now that's Microsoft

and now Windows 10 is getting it

codename - OneGet rclxms.gif

Windows 10 Includes a Linux-Style Package Manager Named “OneGet”


user posted image

Forget the Windows Store. Microsoft is working on a Linux-style package management framework for Windows, and it’s included with Windows 10. It’s being tested with Chocolatey’s existing packages, and allows you to easily install desktop applications and other software.

This is huge news. If you’ve ever used Linux, you’ve probably wanted a package management system for the Windows desktop ever since. Now it’s finally arriving!

OneGet, a Package Management Framework for Windows

MS stated that they purposefully skipped a 9 release so 9 never happened.

How could a product succeeded if it never existed?

hence based on your theory, 10 (which is in fact 9 in chronological order) will succeed.

however, sorry to break up this classical theory but IMO win 8.1 is superior to win 7. BF 4 players will conform to this.
All that was needed was a Start8 and everything else goes back to how it was.

Windows 10 Includes a Linux-Style Package Manager Named “OneGet”
user posted image

Forget the Windows Store. Microsoft is working on a Linux-style package management framework for Windows, and it’s included with Windows 10. It’s being tested with Chocolatey’s existing packages, and allows you to easily install desktop applications and other software.

This is huge news. If you’ve ever used Linux, you’ve probably wanted a package management system for the Windows desktop ever since. Now it’s finally arriving!

OneGet, a Package Management Framework for Windows

would you love your Win 10 to have ability to scp/ssh directly/natively from CMD?

the thing that works is to enable features offline with the command, Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:<installer.drive.letter>:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess with windows 10 install media. (source: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2734782)

4.5.2 couldn't be installed because w10 has 4.6 preview. 3.5.sp1 offline installer did not work also because it will direct you to the windows features dialogue.

edit: this time i screwed the boot menu up (went into a blank screen after selecting to boot into w10.tp), used bcdedit /enum all to check and found out duplicate entries. removed them all and recreated a new entry solved the boot issue.

windows 10 just a technical preview, which is like Alpha stage of the OS. If you want to try out the new Win 10 you can install for free. But bear in mind Technical Preview are not meant for daily operating system.

Nobody forcing you to use modern apps

I think the problem is lack of integration

I find windows 8/8.1 unfinished in terms of UI underneath I think the code is fine.But silly things like
Why they have 2 calculators. Some leftover outdated icons from windows vista doh.gif modern calendar app does not sync with desktop taskbar calendar doh.gif

Windows 10 will make everything consistent

Windows8/10 is not flashy

They got rid of the silly aero glass

Now the design is very simple with more functions

Metro/modern is minimalist which ios and android have started to folow

Nope they are forcing me.
Look at control panel (even worse for win10).
They are forcing me to ditch aero for their 'modern' (lah sangat) design.

Hmm, tried build 9341, everything seems to be working fine except IE just non stop crashing, certain old software seems to causing the Windows to flicker when I trying to Start > typing something.

Then 9879... Windows selection screen (dual booting Windows 7) seems failed to show up after I install Catalyst 14.4.
And damn non of my 3G can connect~! cry.gif
Wonder is it just my problem or known bug. Didn't bother with update further since no 3G, no internet...

- start menu with tiles, mixed bag review, the lack of directly "pin to start menu" (left side list) still is a problem
- 1/4 screen snapping, good
- virtual desktop, although I not sure what I gonna use it for but people seems happy to have it
- by default almost borderless windows, though some softwares may glitch it for now
- "home" explorer group as default instead of "favourite" that lists recently used files & folders
- the return of "library" (actually I didn't used W8 much, but I noticed library was not there)

Just a few notable stuff. Tune in http://news.microsoft.com/windows10story/ about 34 hours from now as of I writting, see what they have in stock to show off. Should be expecting a new beta build as well, hopefully more stable, had some problem with the last one otherwise I'd be using it for daily usage now.

check your source


install within 1 year

then its free

no more charge

Windows 10 is NOT SUBSCRIPTION BASED

"Once a device is upgraded to Windows 10, we'll be keeping it current for the supported lifetime for the device," said Terry Myerson, chief of Microsoft's operating systems division.

All customers running Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 will be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free within a one-year period following the operating system's launch later this year. After that period, users will have to pay for the upgrade as they would have with previous versions of Windows. Those who get the upgrade during the free period will have Windows 10 on their device permanently.

Microsoft really wants you to upgrade to windows 10 so they don't have to support older OS like Windows 7 in the future. If not Windows 7 will end up like Windows XP.
As long is your Windows 7/8/8.1 is genuine, you can upgrade. Jacksparrow not allowed nod.gif


I will only upgrade when it is fully built and officially released ( not going to install any Beta OS) Installing developer preview on your main PS is a risk

Previous builds were ~20GB.
Downloading 9926 at the moment, should be roughly the same.

well you should grab the w8 pro upgrade for MYR 50.00 when it was offered. from there I upgraded to w8.1 pro for free.

haha I never had a chance to use that recovery partition. I have stock recovery image created, but never used it also.

for recovery system images, I always use windows built-in system image tool. I do a fresh install first, install drivers, then make a clean full system image (using wbadmin via powershell). after that, I install software and do windows updates. I always make a new system image whenever I make significant changes to the system. this way, you save a lot of time starting over from scratch. it's very handy smile.gif

back to the w10 topic, dot net 3.5 installed fine this time. finally I can run steelseries engine 2.0 properly biggrin.gif

like w8.x, 3.5 in w10 is not enabled by default. I tested previous tech previews by installing the feature via programs and features but failed. maybe by that time the website for serving w10-specific updates was not ready yet.

Most likely he updated it from Win 7 to Win 10, which is what I did on my laptop (seamless). So far, no driver problems although some apps are "buggy".

this makes sense. for some unknown reasons, the upgrades will screw something in the process. if you have the install media, it's better just do a clean install.

alternatively, just create and use virtual machines for testing purposes. it's much more convenient and flexible.

ok haha

for some windows upgrade from 7 to 8 is fine. for others, it have issues now and then. previously this was the official way for people to upgrade (install 7 then upgrade to 8), before MS decided to give us the install media. if you wanna have something that are close to trouble-free, it's better to do a fresh install smile.gif

the better option is still to run it as virtual machine. note that there is a keylogging feature in w10 tech previews. you don't wanna run it for production.

I thought about using it as daily usage since several builds earlier ago but still, things aren't really stable enough to do so. I had connectivity issue, graphic driver issue, and more importantly networking softwares not working perfectly. I'm using stuff like Proxifier which completely ruin the screen (heavy flickering / blank out) while trying to do certain action which is pretty much the biggest problem that make me stay away for now. If you just doing other stuff, should be just fine. But still, I hearing cases of people's HDD got completely broken.... something scary like that... hah.

Actually, I think the interface somehow just got worst for the latest build! Surprise! Even juts a few pixel shifts or slight color change can ruin everything.

Do we know if the update to win 10 will be free for win 8.1 users?

Edit : Nevermind, found the answer one page back ha :-

QUOTE
"Once a device is upgraded to Windows 10, we'll be keeping it current for the supported lifetime for the device," said Terry Myerson, chief of Microsoft's operating systems division.

All customers running Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 will be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free within a one-year period following the operating system's launch later this year. After that period, users will have to pay for the upgrade as they would have with previous versions of Windows. Those who get the upgrade during the free period will have Windows 10 on their device permanently.

uh? if you're looking for confirmation on upgrade eligibility from current windows to w10, i guess it has been announced a few months ago. all w7 and 8.x users are eligible for the free w10 upgrade plan in its first year of release.

as for your question about preserving activations after upgrade, i believe it can be done. what we are still not sure is how it is done. also, answers to questions like how much do they charge? is there a discount for early adopters? still needs time to confirm. they might improve the current upgrade paths (which they kind of failed miserably at early stages) to make it easier.

so just wait and see smile.gif

I'm aware of the eligibility to convert win 7, 8 to win 10. It just that I am more concern with the preserving activation. If it can preserve for life-long( even decade is good enough), I won't hesitate to buy the win 8 disc now. It just that no confirmation yet from Microsoft and I do not want to risk it to buy a win8 where win10 is only months away from launch date. biggrin.gif

i think it's the news about the announcement that w10 might be released earlier (late summer or early falls).

currently it's still some distance from ready. some merging of ui happened but that's about it. recent trends also show that manufacturers are releasing drivers more frequently than usual.

life-long? i don't think that's necessary haha you can always call ms when the activations failed.

alternatively, the way i preserve activations is to create system images. i do this whenever there are windows updates, so that when i do restore, the os will be activated, everything is in place, and i don't need to go through updates again and again. as long as i don't have much key hardware changes (especially mobo and cpu), this works well.

Me too.. i probably would just stick to Windows 8.1... i am comfortable with it. the Recycle bin icon is just plain flat. the folders icons too.. it's like it's getting older...

Yea... the icon's somehow doesn't blend in UI... it's plain simple and cheap... maybe cost cutting on icon designing? too much hassle ? LOL...

I thumbup.gif Windows 8.1 now.... after going though so much hardship on getting comfortable with the Metro UI... the icons is from Windows 7, so i am good.
but Windows 10 somewhat more crap. Revamped UI, explorer, themes doesn't give off a nice and comfortable. I find the icons from Android Kitkat much more nicer.

Will skip Windows 10. Windows 8.1 all the way thumbup.gif

maybe it's too early to comment anything cosmetic yet at this early stage. it's a technology preview.

just use whatever you feel comfortable.

The one where by default cpu processor (blue light) change to graphic processor (orange light) when I launching game software.

I tried with win 7 and 8.1 both did not work properly and my laptop is noticeably very very slow compared to when I'm using win 8.

So I think I will stick with win 8 for this laptop and buy a new one when win 10 launch.

Oh and its really suck this laptop does not support newer graphic driver which is a shame to you MSi.

this is just a driver/proprietary software compatibility issues. check out and update your bios/drivers/software here. http://www.msi.com/support/nb/GP60.html (please read and understand the upgrade notes carefully to avoid issues) there are drivers for w8.1 provided at that page. (i believe the software that you mentioned is called scm)

btw your laptop is not that old yet. my g55 is even older. and it runs w10tp without issues.

Omg didnt know it was SCM issue, I will try it when I have time, honestly 3 times resetting to factory mode is a hassle and it will take much times.

good luck smile.gif

yeah it's a painful process if you go factory reset mode.

you should try to use windows built-in tool to create a system image instead. the best part of a system image is that it is a snapshot of your current os, software, games, files, and settings, in their most up-to-date form as of the time of its creation. this means when you do a restore, you don't need to go through the whole upgrade path, plus further windows updating, driver/software patching, etc. it's already in the working form, with everything ready to go.

in your case, you should just create one after making sure everything works and updated in w8.1. it's very time saving, and the restore process should be much shorter.

No idea but I suspect it's go to do with memory management.

I alt tab a lot and most of my games are run in windowed fullscreen

EDIT: You can refer to the nvidia forums and reddit.. I'm not the only one with the same issues smile.gif

thanks for the pointers. you're playing games that's nice. i haven't played any on it. i believe there are still plenty of things that game developers have to do to make the games work nicer in w10.

i am playing games with w8.1, just recently updated to 349.90 via windows update. so far so good.

oh. i am not sure what happened, but mine is working fine here. it did get stuck from time to time, but it will resume after that.

for now, i cannot compare 10 tp to 8.1. there are still plenty of bugs here and there in 10. it's just too early to tell.

overall, i'm fine with 10. to me it's like MS is streamlining and simplifying everything.

If you wanna use it as main os, i suggest don't, although it's stable for common uaage. Tech previews are not meant for production use anyway. It's just feature showcase, and a tool to collect usage data mainly. As of now i mainly use it to check software compatibilities only.

You can always try this thing as vm.

.esd is the encrypted installer file.

you can decrypt it with tools into standard .wim, then use imagex to dump its contents into a blank partition/virtual disk. then you can use bootcd to add the virtual disk into boot menu.

cool..

how you upgrade to 10056?

I always press update button and there is no 10056 download also
*
actually i don't do upgrade via windows updates. i use w8.1 pro's built-in vm feature for testing. the upgrade will not run when it detects that the os is a vm.

i downloaded the untouched iso here, extract install.wim from the iso, then use imagex to dump the contents of that install.wim into a virtual disk.

no problem. just note that this is not the official public build, so it might contain more bugs. there were some buggy unofficial builds that i have skipped because of reported problems.

the obvious: the power button finally moved close to start button.

Upgraded to 10056 from 10051, pressing the apps (non metro apps) in start menu doesn't launch, only launches when search about it. Hmm

no such issues here. i have installed several desktop software and run them via start menu (click on 'all apps', then navigate and click on the software icon) i did a fresh install instead of upgrades.

what i found out was spartan at this stage is really terrible to navigate. it can stop responding in one tab (no response to mouse clicks), but if you quickly click on another tab and back to it, everything is fine again.

I think the upgrade produced some problems, I cannot run any desktop softwares via start menu (it comes out nothing) unless I type in the search bar and start from there.

Wait for next month's update then I'll start fresh.

My win/start button does not work at all and the search bar also did not work. Since it's my principally gaming pc and I'm using the build to check what games work and what not I made it the main OS.

Any known fix ? Some guy suggested that only a clean reinstall can fix it.

never use a tech preview as main os :/ we all know it's full of bugs. using it as main os means your chances of stepping into one of them are much higher, and not many know how to fix it. (especially for gaming, even official windows versions we have crashes here and there, due to various reasons. I don't expect them to work fine magically in previews at this stage)

there is no guarantee that it will work, but you can try this: http://microsoft-news.com/facing-issues-wi...ng-these-steps/

I know but I'm listing which games work and which not and since there's nothing else really important I do with the pc then why not. smile.gif

One thing for sure until now I can't run Shogun 2, Rome Total War (haven't tested Medieval 2 though), Mount and Blade Warband and X-COM doesn't work for me. Luckily Skyrim, Rome II and Attila works fine.

I think my build is 10049 iirc. It works fine before but then yesterday when my kid was watching youtube my wife told me that suddenly the monitor went blank with 'no signal' or something and I thought maybe my GPU fried again.

However when I got home and replugged everything everything works fine, except that windows start button. Cause me a bit of a problem though since I'm just the one who don't like having icons on desktop. smile.gif

haha ok just do your thing then smile.gif

same here haha! i only have the recycle icon on my desktop. to access stuff i usually start with win key combo lol

i have read that after 10056 there are recent builds with huge jumps in build number. maybe there will be something worth to test after two weeks.

edit: this one is good. decrypting biggrin.gif

you have found the x64 iso nice! i am doing wim dump so esd is good.

This 10061 build is buggy. It's better to run as vm fresh install only. (e.g. Settings can disappear in the middle of windows updates haha)

To cut the installation short, always do it offline.

Omega driver somehow didn't work, had to use older Catalyst 14.4 and it's fine now.

This time around I actually think about migrating to W10 as daily usage - get familiar with some new interface and stuff. Previously I only took some short peak.
The interface seems much sleek this time, they do some scale adjustments I guess. But that explorer error at the "HI" screen kinda killed some of my brain cell... sweat.gif sweat.gif
Try to sort things out later, hopefully tomorrow is a smooth ride.

Btw, did the Change the EnableBlurBehind trick actually works? (enable transparency on explorers) Didn't work for me though.
Nvm stupid me. It actually enable blur for the start menu only, for now.

I have rolled back to Windows 8.1 haha, my main laptop has to be stable. The speed of 8.1 is definitely faster than the preview as of now haha (especially noticeable in bootspeed).

Hopefully more to come for Windows 10!

btw the final name for the new web browser (formerly project spartan) is called edge.

in the 10074 build more ui integrations are in place. as it's getting closer to rtm, it's called insider preview now.

there is nothing considered stable yet even if w10 has reach insider preview.

as for the activation issues, just get a copy of w8.1 pro retail key (legit copy) at garage sales section.

contact the seller for price. check this: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3496661

er i have no idea what will happen if it's not activated for long.

edit: if you only use the computer for common usage (web browsing, watching videos, etc.), a good alternative is linux. linux mint is a good option. (actually it's not bad)

Just made a clean reinstallation of 10074 (format drive, install win 7 and upgrade to win 10074). Found of the the desktop experience is much smoother than previous version (maybe formatting the hd did the trick too ?). Shogun 2 and M&B warband now working though Shogun 2 got 'windows has stopped working' error upon quitting the game. Not sure if recurrent as haven't tested the second time.

In any case, it takes quite a while to load and a lot more longer than even win 7. I did not time them but I think it's 3 times longer than my usual windows 7 loading. Hope it will not be the same when the retail version comes out later. I did uninstall some programs that I don't need and I do hope when the real thing came out I will have the option only to install what I need (don't bloody need windows 10 to tell me what's the weather is like outside, really).

In any case, my early verdict is that I may done good to myself sticking to win7 and waiting for win 10 rather than upgrade to win 8 when it came out earlier.

I will do a game benchmark later though I'm not sure if the OS have any actual effect since my last benchmark since the game has been patched and new gfx driver released too since I made my last benchmarks.

indeed. the desktop experience is relatively better. however it really depends on who is using it. for os fresh installs in older computers, i think it will be smooth. my test machine is almost 3 years old. there are no significant issues so far.

i doubt that games we have these days can leverage on dx12 yet. also, with background stuff collecting user data it's kind of taxing also. to have better gaming experience, it's better to stick to current os.

indeed. the desktop experience is relatively better. however it really depends on who is using it. for os fresh installs in older computers, i think it will be smooth. my test machine is almost 3 years old. there are no significant issues so far.

Yeah. for serious usage currently then better to stick with win 7 or win 8. Me on the other hand since there nothing important on the pc anyway (besides my games which I only play on weekends) there's no issue with trying them. smile.gif

At least I got to do my part in helping which games work and which don't. tongue.gif

Any idea whether we got to try dx12 before the real thing comes out ?

One thing though, since I already been using(free) avira I found out that I cannot run windows defender at the same time using windows 10, unlike windows 7 where I can run both at the same time. Is it something new with the new OS where no 2 AV can be run at the same time ?

haha ok

for dx12 supports, we still need game and gpu driver developers to come up with something. hopefully we can have that a few months after w10 release.

DX12 adoption is likely... slow... just like DX11 and x64 adoption speed...
How many games nowadays that in-the-works supports announced support for DX12? As far as I know, none. Pardon me if my news is a tad slow.

Realistically, I will think - 2 or 3 months after W10 release, developer start to announce support for DX12 for various futures games, minimum development time 1 year, so expect stuff ti pickup at end of 2016... lol... just my wild speculation. biggrin.gif

Though, hit a couple networking problems with 10074 really wanna pull my hair out. Can't continue anymore =/
One issue that seems to inherit since several generations and never got fixed - tray icon "ghosting"... Seriously, still not fixed in W10 lol...
(after close certain application, the icons remain at tray bucket until you hover your mouse on it)

3G connect but no data running, everything on the meter 0.00kbps, sometime.
Problem creating virtual wifi hotspot, as there is no "microsoft virtual wifi adapter" found but instead there is an adhoc adapter... forgot the name. Hotspot can be created on that adhoc thing but other devices (my phone for example) failed to connect - checking ipconfig the hotspot don't have a gateway, and WPA2 is known to have difficulty connect on mobile and I don't know how to change it to WEP... rclxub.gif

there is no need to hate anything. you can always use your favorite os until there is nothing working on it. i think that's a long time, considering some folks are still running wxp.

the way i see it is that it's better to spend some time to adapt. tbh i had a hard time converting to w8 from w7 initially. well, sort of. all i spent was one week to get rid of the typical start menu syndrome.

imo w8.1 update 3 onwards is much better.

I hate windows 8 too. but when I tried win8.1, i feel not bad with it.

and overall performance/smoothness is way better than win7. (I hate the metro style of win8/8.1 too, haha)

the only disappointed, some win7 software not able to run in win8 sad.gif

now I'm waiting for win10 consumer preview... hehe

now there are two types of windows users
one prefer the windows 7 and another one prefer windows 8
Microsoft's windows 10 is about all in one, all platform with one OS and that include the mix of windows 8 & 7 user experience on windows 10
I like Windows 8 live tiles and also windows 7 start menu etc
after using win10 tp, im very sure the final product can fit both windows 8 & 7 users. furthermore got free upgrade rclxms.gif

maybe. it's just personal preference. just take your own sweet time to adapt, if you want. if you don't wanna do that, you can still use your preferred os for quite some time (measured in years).

sure smile.gif linux is a great os. it can turn into anything, depending on hardware. for casual use as an end user (e.g. web browsing, email, entertainments, etc.), i actually prefer linux to windows. for my machines, everything just work.

if it's for gaming and work (at work space), windows is still a better option.

oh. yeah i think there are still problems during upgrades. there was nothing like that if it's a fresh install.

to me this is a more stable build than the previous versions. all drivers are working fine. for aw18, some were not installed properly (due to incompatible os version), but using manual method they still installed fine.

although they are still bugs here and there, it's getting stable now (build 10122, 10125).

edit: due to some unknown reasons, the start menu cannot start haha (build 10125). i have tested to run bf4 on this. everything is great with no hiccups.

i am running build 10125 now. it's quite buggy. so far there is no news about start menu fix. i have tried the old tricks but they didn't work. (powershell and start menu removal)

there is a rumor saying that rtm will be available in july or august this year.

yes build 10122 is more stable imo. in 10125, the more obvious one is the new icon set, and the bug: when you click on system, it always create 2 instances of the system window.

Nope, I'm trying all sorts of solutions except clean install. If I do clean install, how will my license from Windows 8.1 be transferred over when RTM is available? I worried won't be able to get windows 10 RTM if clean install.

I think, even with a clean new install (without formatting) it will copy first your existing installation data etc. That was what happened when I did a new installation for 10074 from the previous version.

no, you don't need to use your w8.1 key for w10 tech preview. it's automatically activated when the computer is connected to the internet.

when w10 rtm is here, be patient and wait for the official steps to get the free upgrade.

Sorry bro i try to find the iso version. That link is esd meaning encrypted install.wim, not a proper iso file.

stasio posted a link to 10125. Maybe you can try that. The simplest way is to create a bootable usb with it. You can use rufus to do that.

maybe most of the times the same error message are too generic. my previous attempts to fix bugs were the same.

update: i think it's real that w10 will come out as early as end of july or early august this year. usually retail stores will get it like a month later after release, http://www.pcworld.com/article/2928797/new...lease-date.html

Question 1:
Laptop. Isnt uefi install activation is based cert in the bios for win 8/8.1.

So what happens with the upgrade??
Same activation code??

Question 2:
isnt upgrade always full of garbage thats scattered.
Isnt it better to do a full proper install. Been like this since vista/7/8/8.1 for all the sp revision n 8.1.

So what has change with w10?? Are we finally seeing os upgrades like mac osx/ios. ??

to me, so far so good. i have tested a few hardware (i.e. laptops, desktops) up to 3-years old, compatibility issues are minor. (no problem with common drivers, minor issues if proprietary)

if you're used to w8.1, it's easy to use w10. note that ms has arranged and integrated common stuff into one single place called settings. access to some of them need a bit of time to adapt.

i think you can use a single email account to do that, but i'm not sure.

1) i think the code should be different (as this is a major version change). the common way to use a new key is to create a usb install media, and put the new key in pid.txt (x:\sources\pid.txt, x is drive letter of usb stick). this is how we install w8.1 pro in a w8 single language machine.

2) i never do upgrades (due to various issues during upgrades). clean install is still the best. w8.1 has a link to download a full iso that let us do clean installs. i bet later we will have that also for w10.

at first glance, nothing much changed, except for edge browser, cortana, dx12, better mail and calendar integration (basically tighter integration with MS services), and rearrangement of settings. (as of tech previews, most of the things are still the same) i am testing desktops only, not sure about how good the integration is with phones, tablets, and xbox.

If you use an email for two devices, one setting from a PC will be synced to the other so expect some surprise. And at times, you won't be able to login on a device if the other is logged on.

i don't think ms will implement it like that. it's an awful choice if they do that.

edit: i think my issue about start menu 'bug' was likely caused by a proprietary driver.

wow that's a terrible way to do things. (i.e. to get logged out) there are group policies in w8.x that controls what is synchronized and what is not, so i think selective synchronization on settings is possible.

yes, w7 is eligible for free upgrade. read the answer to 'What edition of Windows will I get as part of this free upgrade?' here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/windows-10-faq

turning off windows updates made the w10 upgrade notification app not downloaded and installed (kb3035583, https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3035583)

by the way, you shouldn't disable windows updates. you can always free space after updates using disk cleanup. (unless it's a very small drive or partition)

you can create a bootable usb stick for this. for uefi install, just format it with fat32, use 7zip or winrar to extract the contents of the iso directly into the usb stick. that's it. (make sure your target drive is gpt disk)

however, a better way to test these previews is to run them in vm.

why you need to downgrade back 8 after upgrade windows 10 (since it is free to download for upgrade within a year "forever used", after 1 year past by these didn't upgrade will need to buy), well not sure if you want to reinstall back to windows 10 need purchase key or not after 1 year is the question

for now, it's a limited time free upgrade offer. i suggest you test it out first with insider previews in vm (use virtualbox for instance).

A year of free upgrade.... or a year of usage?

After upgraded, used for a year, expire it's license, buy new to continue?

OR

After upgraded, used for as long as you like?

It is a smooth transition from 8.1 to 10. No need to reformat/ re-install. If your W8.1 key is genuine, it'll work.

Managed to do a clean install using the build 10130 ISO. Had to reformat the partition. Encountered some driver plproblems and to reinstall my Realtek HD audio and Nvidia GT840M drivers. Otherwise all good.

Haven't had time to play around with yet though.

yeah just report them all. i am using the same build. to me the main problems are system bugs (or rather driver bugs for this computer), while everything else is working fine. it's rated as 0 issues when i reserved my w10 upgrade.

Should be until end of lifetime of product.

But then the confusion is win10 would be based on rolling release so there is no clear way to define its life cycle.

https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums...view2014General

tl;dr; i did personalization and turned off all notifications in the start menu. that was the culprit.

all fixed now:

after few days of testing my stuff out (not automated scripts this time), i think i'm good to go for w10 upgrade.

as of now, changes made to w10 don't affect a lot on how i use a pc. things that i thought missing previously were found (mostly).

Since I already installed win10 tp on my win8.1 and I forgot to to make a backup, I hope the license won't be an issue and I can a clean install when 10 is released on July 29. Made a mistake to upgrade before making backup. sad.gif

for those who wanna do w10 upgrade, make sure you check if everything is what you want. there are several features that will be missing after the conversion, http://www.theverge.com/2015/6/1/8696949/w...10-feature-loss

notably, it's said users have no control on windows updates in w10 home (pro edition is ok).

try to grab the current key. use rweverything or belarc advisor.

yeah always do system backup if you wanna do it on your main machines. the better ways for testing only are either use a spare drive or simply make a vm.

With Build 10135, to do full update need to change in PID file key.

The pid file is located in x:\wininstalldownload\sources\pid.txt

change the pid key to below, save and install.

most likely it's amd.

you can try build 10130. except for the custom list bug that caused start menu to fail, and other small bugs, it's relatively stable.

The setting above is kinda buggy. It didn't affect the border but does affect other stuff.
Border color follow wallpaper color... so... have to do a workaround. (I want white border)

> keep the automatic pic color on
> set a plain white pic as wallpaper, now the border is white
> disable automatic pic color, select color for theme, let say dark grey
> set the wallpaper I wanted

The color slider option under the classic [theme] setting is gone wink.gif

As of Build 10130, dark theme still can't be enabled via settings, right? Can only change thru REGEDIT?

I'm getting pop up box error when shutting down the pc. Forgot to note down what it says but just clicking the ok box the pc can shut down properly. It's something about a program can't be closed or something.

Anyone having similar thing ?

i think you might wanna report this. however it might also be a debugging thing running in the background.

it's just weird that in my case i don't need to wait for anything tbh.

It hangs for me. Need to click the close button. Yeah. It's about memory and also the system can't close some explorer.exe or something. Forgot to take the screenshot since I was a bit of a hurry this morning.

just don't bother about it. i doubt it will be there when the final release is here.

by the way to bring up settings, all you need is win+i.

no you don't need to reinstall the whole os. afaik it's an upgrade-only option on existing running os. if you have a legit key (w7 or above), you can use it to upgrade for free.

not sure. all we know by now is the free upgrade from older os. from what i have read there is nothing yet about updating from old os with a w10 key.

finally. the development for w10 has entered the stage of rtm escrow as reported by wzor on 15 june 2015. (source: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Windows-10-...s-484282.shtml)

following the trends of previous os developments, if you don't wanna deal with left-over bugs, incompatible drivers, etc. which will be fixed mostly by windows updates and respective manufacturers some times later, it's better to give a time frame of few months before you upgrade. of course if you have tested the os via insider program and found nothing in the way, your computer is all set.

Can't agree more - when I run PC check Windows 10 cannot be run on my PC as the OEM has yet to release compatible driver for their customized GPU. No choice but have to wait n fingers crossed they update the driver within the 1 year foc timeframe

yes. note that if the pc oem doesn't provide working drivers officially, you can still get latest ones from respective parts manufacturers. i think any parts that are within 3 years old are still good to get working driver supports.

yes. note that if the pc oem doesn't provide working drivers officially, you can still get latest ones from respective parts manufacturers. i think any parts that are within 3 years old are still good to get working driver supports.
*
I contacted the GPU manufacturer but they commented that the OEM has customized the GPU hence the manufacturer won't be able to provide the latest driver. I contacted the OEM and they advised to wait for their update of the driver. I can only fingers crossed that they will b able to update by 29/07/16. Too bad sweat.gif

there are parts that we usually grab drivers directly from parts manufacturers (e.g. intel chipset, rst, gpu, audio, etc.) actually i find the comment of the gpu manufacturer weird. (maybe they meant something else) all this while it's common that we get latest gpu drivers from, say, nvidia directly. i bet no one get them from oem like zotac, asus, msi, etc.

oh ok thanks a lot for this tip. i will test some alternative methods and see if they work, too.

edit: yes the key didn't work for activation via clean install (i tried pro retail only). i guess we are at the stage very close to rtm. normally Microsoft makes activation method as the last part of finalization to include in new os before release. since the activation method has changed, offline restore of activation tokens didn't work also.

edit.2: this build is kind of better. however there are still plenty happening behind the scene and get logged in events viewer.

edit.3: working key for w10 pro retail build 10147: 8N67H-M3CY9-QT7C4-2TR7M-TXYCV from wzor's tweet:

Great news everyone running Windows Insider with Windows 10 TP: http://m.winsupersite.com/windows-10/how-t...-windows-10-rtm

Your build 10130 and later builds will convert to RTM as long as you are part of the windows insider program. It will also allow you to do a clean install later.

Am I entitled to get a seperate RTM key if upgrade from windows 8.1 to Windows 10 preview? Btw, the key in windows 10 preview after upgrade is not my windows 8.1 key right?

Fairly stable. Haven't had a crash on build 10130. Running it with steam, battle.net, and origins. NVIDIA has Windows 10 TP drivers, so you're at least covered on that.

Edge is fairly fast (not perfect though), and IE is still around hidden in the windows system directory.

I only have problems with the Store (Beta) getting updates to the Music app.

Wouldn't it be more advisable to wait for Windows 10 RETAIL version as Windows 10 will be the last major OS release?

My pc is running ahem version and I was thinking of getting a cheap W7/W8 OEM license for this Windows 10 upgrade. But as you know, OEM version is tied to the hardware, specifically the motherboard so you won't be able to reactivate your Windows should you upgrade the mobo. As with most pc enthusiasts, we upgrade our motherboards from time to time and this makes sense if we actually purchase the RETAIL version instead so that we can keep upgrading our hardware without limit. And because Windows 10 is going to be the last OS, it would be endless....as long as Microsoft survives tongue.gif

one option is to get new retail keys from garage sales and you're all set.

it's similar to w8.1 installation except for cosmetic changes. imo the best way is to disconnect from the network before install. it will shorten the installation time significantly.

yes you can do that i think. the offline upgrade installer should be available for download when it's ready. this is to overcome issues of users with multiple systems, the offline installer save repeated downloads of the same contents.

Until now, we are all just assuming and speculating things, based on insider previews. Most of the things are not confirmed.

W7/8 retail key won't be able to activate W10.
W7/8 only eligible to upgrade to W10 (for free within a year of course). So cannot perform clean install W10.
So if we want to perform a clean install, need to install W7/8 first, then only upgrade to W10.
However, the 'within 1 year period of free upgrade' comes at play here.

I've read it somewhere but forgot the link already.

in general, read this, http://winsupersite.com/windows-10/windows...asked-questions

so yeah you can do clean installs. actually i wonder when i flash new bios what will happen. if this also an issue, i think it's better just don't upgrade.

I'm hoping that title bar and menu bar get some sort of separation or even transparent glass effect or dark theme or same as color accent.
In Build 10130, it's too whitey for me.

for maximum painless upgrades i think it's better to use offline method.

to me i always just do a clean install. i will wait for the installer to come out first, or see if there are other ways for me to do that. (maybe a system image after upgrade can work)

edit:

build 10158 is more stabilized.

These are some of the cosmetic changes in build 10159:

-Tweak in the login screen, which now features a centered design with a circular image. Before, the profile picture was aligned to the left with the box to enter the login credentials to the right.
-Login screen now features the new default Windows 10 "Hero" image.
-If you're upgrading a preview without a custom background image you have previously set, you'll now also see the new Windows 10 "hero" image as the default background on the desktop.
-You can browse the following path "C:\Windows\Web\4K\Wallpaper\Windows" to extract the wallpaper.

hi bro first sorry for redirecting you into this thread. i think it's better to reduce fragmentation of information about similar topics.

as for your question, i suggest you wait for a bit. the offer period is one year. so imo you should take your time reading comments from the early adopters. there are still a lot of things that we have no clear answers as of now. unless you have tested your machine is 99.9% compatible with the new os, and drivers of your gadgets will work well with it, it's better to have some patience and wait for a few months more.

i am currently running build 10162. i believe this is one of the rc builds that Microsoft will release as final rtm to all users. it's stable.

No. You have a lot of color option from accent color but no white.

You can use Cortana, provided you install from En-US iso.
It's available by default. Or if not, you can still change your region to US.

Depends on games you play but basically what works with win7 and win8 will work with win10

Some of my games works better than my win7.

Hi guys, want to ask about my current windows key. I've upgraded to windows 10 Technical preview from a legit windows 8.1. Previous builts didn't encounter any problem, but the latest built says that my key is blocked, asking me to activate legit windows key. I've checked out windows forum, admins are providing keys for technical builds, will using those keys affect my legit windows 8 key after the official release? Or I can simply use those provided temporarily?

yeah everything is way better now, compared to older builds. imo they are fast enough even for old machines with the right hardware (especially ssd)

actually insider previews do not need legit windows key to test. the latest build used new keys (check out my spoiler for build 10166 above for current keys. e.g. 8N67H-M3CY9-QT7C4-2TR7M-TXYCV is for w10 pro). you can use the new key to activate windows. use win+i to bring up settings > click update and security > go to activation

(w10 pro build 10166 activated with the above key)

as for your w8.1 key, just keep it handy. you might need it.
