Windows 10 Upgrade

Featured Replies

I just clicked that button to see the status and it started downloading Windows 10. Didn't ask me if I wanted to or not! Freaky! Can't find a way to stop the DL. 

 

View Progress finally came up and I was able to stop it. Was still creating a restore point!

 

Freaky!

Windows 10 finally fixes the joystick disconnect.  No more autolands!

Well,

 

although in my home rig I still can't even get the icon to be displayed, here at the office I have just migrated my work desktop, full of applications, some of them rather complex.

 

Apart from having had to download and install proper Nvidia drivers ( already Win 10 compatible ) the migration was smooth as silk, and all is working beautifully !!!

 

Even Nvidia Inspector works beautifully, with the updated Nvidia Drivers.

You have to use the SAME language on the Utility that your computer is set to.

Linux, but does that mean the keyboard language, the localization ?  

 

That was exactly the error message I got. 

 

I guess I installed my Win7 Home Premium, long ago, using ENG ( UK ), but I am using the Portuguese ( PT ) keyboard and localization. Should I change the keyboard definition before trying to start the upgd?

 

Thx!

Question for those who have upgraded. I have a well organized Desktop in Windows 7. Will that Desktop be retained as a Desktop in Windows 10?

Mine was integrally ported to the win 10 desktop, maintaining the exact placement of the icons :-)
