sonofananimal2: I mean different license. If u are installing on a computer without genuine Windows i don't think windows 10 will get registered. |

dmcdad: The media creation tool is actually 18mb. My bad. |

i'M USING wINDOWS 10...MY ONLY QUALMS NOW IS THAT IT USED UP MY DATA WITHOUT A FORMAL NOTIFICATION THAT WINDOWS 10 DOWNLOADING WAS ACTUALLY TAKING PLACE. sO I THOUGHT MY WIRELESS BOX HAD BEEN HACKED AND I INCURRED EXPENSIVE DATA BILLS. Forgot capslock was on |

gmyguy:That is one downside of Windows 10. Infact, I could say it is the notably downside. You can't control Windows update like previous Windows versions. Unless you are using the Enterprise version of Windows 10. |

abatically:It will. Its for all. Genuine and Counterfeit. |

Anyway, am sure they will soon be bombarded with consumer complaints....hope they don't spoil LIB market |

sonofananimal2:I dnt understand |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by dmcdad: 10:03am On Aug 01, 2015 |
gmyguy:Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha But for real, I think LIB consumes data. Although I don't visit that blog, just hearing about it. But I have heard a friend of mine complain about it before. Anywayz, for now, I don't think there are any updates in Windows 10. Obviously, in the coming weeks if not days, updates would be coming. |

lomprico: You LL have to purchase it, then install the upgrade |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by ITbomb(m): 10:09am On Aug 01, 2015 |
dmcdad: You can control it. Just go to settings and set your current connections as Metered Connection, then Windows will not do any background download and notifications update on that connection. |

Windows 10 is just a wow experience to me. I upgraded about three days back now... and I can't describe the simplicity of the process and now I have a new PC and a new PA. Lol but that Cortana who happened to be my PA too know shall Lol, Lol and Lol... In fact after the upgrade I personally prayed to God to upgrade my life. I'm not too spiritual anyway but the experience was just too inspiring. By the way I didn't experience any error but I was only prompted to uninstall my finger print application. |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by lomprico(m): 10:14am On Aug 01, 2015 |
dmcdad:My 8.1 is cracked but I dnt see any pop up |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by dmcdad: 10:16am On Aug 01, 2015 |
ITbomb:And then it affects every other background apps. My point was, Windows 10, unlike previous versions doesn't have an option not to receive updates. But I guess this would help, but it would just block every other background apps one might want. |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by dmcdad: 10:19am On Aug 01, 2015 |
lomprico:Same here. Just head over to Microsoft's website and download it from there. You can download it from their site as an upgrade file, or as a disk image (ISO) that you can use for more than one installation. You can as well burn it to a DVD or USB flash device. Go to their site and you will be asked to download Media Creation Tool (Just 18MB). The tool will do the dowloading of the upgrade files or ISO file. After that, you can run the upgrade from the downloaded file. |

Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by lomprico(m): 10:25am On Aug 01, 2015 |
dmcdad:Thanks. One more question, hope all ur files and apps where not lost. |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by dmcdad: 10:31am On Aug 01, 2015 |
lomprico:Nah.... Unless you go through the option of wiping everything. Although, by default, it will just do the upgrade with all your files and settings intact. |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by lomprico(m): 10:41am On Aug 01, 2015 |
dmcdad:Ok, thanks |
