Fast boot depends on many things but in my old laptop case i did not see any difference from win8.1.
As for the data I did not lose anything.
Well i have win 7 will i notice any good difference in boot speeds?
Enjoy being beta testers. Also, after reading some of the changes such as the cloud integration and the always-online system where you can't even disable updates, I'm having second thoughts of whether to upgrade at all.
Microsoft plans to release Windows 10 in waves. That means even if your computer is ready, you won’t necessarily be able to download Windows 10 right away.


Tool from Microsoft that will automatically upgrade to Windows 10 for the impatient people.

I downloaded the iso using the tool overnight, will upgrade the windows when I get home
Updated from 8.1 cracked and it says windows is activated

You Burned the .ISO via a DVD or what was your procedure , and when you updated it did not mention to you a KEY and is the new window activated with a genuine status - you can do updates.

I just double clicked on the .ISO and then install.exe, and it proceeded to update my windows normally, and no it didn't ask for a key, and now I am downloading updates



but there is something wrong with the resolution I don't know what is it but the text is just not right, I don't know if you can see it in the above picture

EDIT: I already downloaded the latest nvidia driver for win 10
hassansaleh31 wroteI don't know why everyone think that windows 8 is horrible maybe because you are used to windows 7 but if you use windows 8 for sometime you will also get used to it and it's new features.
It is always good to keep up with new updates because updates are made to make the user more comfortable and have more options.
So for me i always recommend updates on anything (pc mobile phones applications) and have some time to get used to it.
Not sure if Windows 8 is horrible, but I prefer the Windows 7 workflow. I understand that the UI is optimized for tablets but I have a Laptop, and no touch-screen.
I don't know about Windows 10. Yesterday, I was in the supermarket, and saw a magazine cover with "Windows 10, the Review". What happened to 9, by the way?

So I guess I'll stick with 7. I would've still been using Windows XP if I could. Maybe XP wouldn't have used 22 gigs for the c:\windows folder. But then I'm not even sure. After all it's mostly WinSxs, which also exists in XP. I'm using Linux ATM, BTW, liking it more and more. So I try to use that whenever possible.

7 8 9 xD
if I download the windows 10 from torrent can I upgrade from the hdd without using any external drive and will it be the same?
Updated successfully from windows 7 Ultimate to Windows 10 Pro
I have a cracked version of Windows 8.1 pro and I need to activate it. Should I just buy a product key and replace the one I have with it or is there something else to do. And I haven't reserved a windows 10 copy on my PC can I still get it for free?

Yes buy a legit copy on g2a for less than 30$. I did that and now have a legit copy.
Is the .IOS downloaded via MediaCreationToolx64 , allows only a fresh windows 10 installation or can I update my current Windows through it (Genuine Windows 8.1 64 Bit). I already confirmed a month ago for the update, but still the update notification did not roll over.
