Upgrading to Windows 10 for FREE
As a technologist. Many come to me for advice on upgrading their computers. Should I upgrade to Windows 10, will it work more effectively? To answer this question on your own, you should consider the age of your computer. In most cases, there will be no improvement on speed with newer desktops and possibly a slower experience on machines older than four years.
Before considering upgrading your machine. It would be wise to consult the Pros at Microsoft directly. They have created an upgrade tool the bottom right hand corner of your desktop. If you are curious about upgrading and do not see this icon, try visiting This Website on instructions to perform the upgrade manually. Before you upgrade, Microsoft will, of-course tell you about any conflicting software or hardware you may have.
With a new polished OS, that comes with a price-tag of zero. Why would you not upgrade your PC or notebook? For starters, the User Interface (UI) is slightly different than Windows 7. If you are not content with changes in how specific settings or changes, I would advise you stick with familiar territory. For the more adventurous, who are curious about diving into new features like Cortana: A virtual assistant, similar to Siri and S-Voice. I'd say go for it!
Windows 10 is free and comes with a Start Menu, Yes; Windows 8 haters! It's back for good now! Windows 10 also comes with built in security "Windows Defender" , a free anti-virus solution from Microsoft. Please be advised, that if you purchased a PC from a vendor, this feature is turned off by default. To turn it on, simply uninstall the trial-ware anti-virus that came with your machine.
The new and improved action center will notify you of software updates and computer problems. If you have a lot of software on your machine, it could become quite naggy, by asking you to perform updates. Fortunately, this feature can be turned off by right clicking the action center icon and clicking on "quiet hours."
Windows 10 is the best of Windows 7 and 8 combined into one. The flexibility of a simple start menu, and the novelty of an all-in-one platform that can work as well with tablets as they can with the desktop. The Windows app store is fully available on the Windows 10 desktop operating system, as it is on the Windows 10 Tablet operating system. Wait! It's the same operating system for both devices.
What are your thoughts on Windows 10? Have you been successful in downloading it to your machine? Please share your thoughts, about what you might like about it, or even have come to despise. Thank you.
