Windows 10? Who has installed it?

[h0llywood]

Downloaded it last night, woke up this morning at 5:30 a.m. to install, left the house at 6:30 a.m. and it was still at 57% installing. Guess I will have to wait until I get home to check it out.

Nothing too different so far,but I've only had it a day.  The one standout different I like so far is my daisy-chain display treats multiple monitors as extensions still but the UI is now treated like a separate box.  (IE:  my taskbar doesn't need to run off of my master display only).

I just did it - downloaded it overnight, it installed on my 2 year old HP desktop in a couple of hours with no intervention from me, then loaded right up and worked great. Looking forward to seeing whats new.

The transition from 8.1 to 10 was seamless on my laptop, which now appears to be working faster and better, imo. I haven't seen any issues so far.

if you did the express install of windows 10 you might want to seriously consider turning this feature off:

That last feature is the potentially controversial one. WiFi Sense is enabled by default in Build 10240 of Windows 10; if you choose “Express Settings,” Microsoft enables the option and allows your device to acquire WiFi passwords from friends and shares your password with the same group of people. If you choose to leave the function enabled (or turn it on manually, as shown below), it will request permission to connect to Outlook, Skype, and Facebook on your behalf. Other users on your friends list who also run Windows 10 will have their contact information shared with you as well, assuming they also enable the feature.

Laptop is running great however my desktop is stuck with Windows 7. Says my graphics card isn't up to par.

I like it.  I also like that I can get Cortana to call me "Master".

Only thing weird for me so far, when opening a new tab, it won't load automatically.  Kinda weirds me out, never seen it happen before.  

 

But, maybe that's just a different issue and not Windows?

It installed, played around for about a half hour and couldn't stand it. Reverted back to 7. All happy now.

Man's Porn Stash Set As Screensaver After He Upgrades To Windows 10, Wife Finds It

 

Following the recent release of Windows 10, one man explained on Reddit how he upgraded and accidentally set his screensaver to pornographic images.

Reddit user FalloutBoS explained that he began processing the Windows 10 installation at night before going to bed. The next morning, his wife woke him up and asked why his computer screensaver was cycling through some obscene photos.

Hope its better than 8

I installed it, and it slowed my system down quite a bit.  I'm not tech savvy enough to know why, but since I installed it, it takes forever for pages to load that used to load in seconds.  I usually have to exit the internet to get moving again...that is until it starts slowing down again.  Also, it screwed up my favorites, and is not as convenient accessing them.

So, I'm not a fan.  Generally, I can see how it is a big improvement from Windows 8, I just wish it didn't mess up some of the things that were working well.

A week later and I love it.  Just as good as 8 was, but much more intuitive and streamlined.
