You don't need to wait, go to that link I posted up thread and kick it off.
I'm now trying to install 8 over the top of 8.1 because a Repair install won't work either for me :(
Yes that's true. Thought I'd check if it's worth it before diving in with the upgrade.
I'm just waiting for the usability reports to come in.
But since you lot don't seem to think that Win8 sucks shit out of a monkey's butt-crack, I think I'll have to look further afield. Win7 seems about as good as Windows has ever been TBH.
The worst thing about Windows 8 IMO is the tiles shit. 10 makes that easy to get rid of. Otherwise it all seems like a pretty bog standard de. To my surprise it kept ie 11 on board.
Didn't like 8/8.1 (well, I didn't mind it once it was set to boot to desktop and classic start menu was installed).
Only had 10 for about 10 minutes, and so far it seems pretty slick. Cortana is being a dick, tells me I need to change some settings (the LET Microsoft SPY ON ME settings), but when I click to open the settings page it opens then closes again immediately.
Actually, can't get into settings at all. Very annoying.
I did start to download the ISO but I just noticed that the Service Host process is using the network connection so probably downloading the update too.
I can get control panel, but not into PC Settings, the app store or anything related to that stuff (personalise desktop, windows update etc.) It's a bit annoying as I need to change some security settings in PC Settings in order to get my uni email to work.
I've run SFC, which reports there's a bunch of corrupt files that it can't fix. Was going to do a windows reset thing, but that's in PC Settings. (fail)
Must be a command prompt command you can run to open certain settings dialogs?
