    Is Windows 10 stable enough for main desktop?


    Windows 10 Preview has been out for a couple of weeks now and I'm sure its had a few updates since release. Would you guys think its stable enough to be used on main desktop without too many issues?

    What about drivers, are companies beginning to release them?

    I am eager to test out Windows 10 for myself.

    :)

    Lumia 930 WiFi stops working

    Is Windows 10 mobile in a stable enough condition for an average user yet? I had Windows 8.1 developer preview for a couple of months before launch, no real issues that I couldn't resolve.

    similar here or not yet stable enough?

    update to windows 10 on phone

    The social messaging apps and all other apps do lag and crash sometimes in the current build of windows 10 mobile (especially if you have a 512mb RAM device)

    The insider preview is not stable enough for normal users who are totally dependent on their current device, thus it is recommended that you install the windows 10 mobile preview if you have a backup device.. Is Windows 10 stable enough for main desktop? :)

    I would personally recommend you to wait for sometime until the preview OS is stable enough..

    It's stable enough to tinker with but I wouldn't use it as your main OS.

    I am unable to see any major differences with 8.1. I flip between the two. If there is a difference it would be no bugs with 8.1.

    How long will the preview registration last?

    How I'm testing:
    1. At home I am dual booting with a clean install of Win10 on a separate drive.
    2. At my computer club I cloned my Win8.1 to another drive and upgraded that with Win10.

    Both installations are running my programs in stable fashion. No BSOD's or driver problems.

    Thanks guys. I'm going to give it a go as my main desktop. I know enough to either try and fix problems or to re install Windows 8.1.

    No, actually, the first Consumer Preview is intended to be released in the spring. Retail release isn't expected until next fall.

    So it'l be like Windows 7 then. We first tested the preview release, then a beta before final release. So I'm guessing this is what will happen this time.
