How was your Windows 10 upgrade experience?

D13H4RD

For me, it was (almost) flawless.

 

Aside from a hiccup with Windows Update while downloading Windows 10, the entire installation process went through smoothly (although lengthy) without a hitch.

 

I literally didn't do anything after initiating the upgrade. I just let it do what it needed to do and got myself a drink, snacks and watched some videos on my phone.

 

Once its done, it's really stable. I'm impressed so far.

Mine was perfectly smooth other than the fact that my apartment had a fucking power surge on my first go of installing it :/

Besides throwing all my desktop icons all over the fucking place and deleting only CPU-Z for some reason, no issues.

I had issues with indexing, drivers not being transferred correctly, and detecting the wrong refresh rate and resolution for my second monitor. I also hate how when you search for something in the start menu, there's no way to go back to apps view, without closing and re-opening the menu.

Upgraded from Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit using the ISO from Microsoft's site. Upgrade process went perfectly, except on first load to desktop, the Start Menu and taskbar completely refused to work until I restarted my PC (Windows key didn't work, right/left clicks gave no response).

Nothing out of the normal, my experience is pretty much the same as with windows8.1 I guess I need to explore more. Also had a few bugs, e.g a bug when I try to go in the recording devices options

I did notice my CPU Z went as well but everything else was fine and loving it.

My Experience with windows 10 for the 2 days now has been brilliant I've had no problems. I am loving it and fast. I was a win 7 user.

Worked well for me. Didn't reserve a copy but was able to get the ISO. Took a while to figure out how to make a UEFI bootable thumb drive but after that everything just worked.
