  1. Installing windows 10 update


    Im having issues installing the windows 10 update from windows 8.1. All it says is “getting a few things ready” and then loading dots. And this is all ive been seeing for over 12 HOURS ive even kept the laptop on all night. And when i try to go in manually through the settings i just see the same loading dots. The laptop is not very old and it meets all the requirements. Help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

  2. New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

    It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

    Heres a couple examples:

    Here

    It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

    I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
