Windows 10: Question? Have you installed Win 10 and use it everyday?

I made a mistake, I'm a beta tester since the old days, I asked on another forum ( OMG I was accused of not knowing anything because I called the preview beta and not Alpha ect... and even accused of not really beta testing MS OS in the past my history : IE3 beta, XP Beta, Win 7 Beta (did not beta Vista) )

"Why would you install the technical preview ( windows 10) for a couple hours or so and think you have tested it?" Why not use it everyday? Stress the OS to find bugs?

I was told:
"You do not put the OS on a main system you use everyday" "You may or will lose all your data"

WOW when I test an OS I use it everyday and report back to MS. I'm not worry about losing data since its all backed up, even my browser (Fire Fox)

I do have a Laptop with Win 7 on it I can use its older and dual core not bad.

But Win 10 deserves i5 and a non touch and touch screen computer, our touchscreen laptop is an i3

Yes read about Key Logger, but not worried about it all.

*Cool

Installed KB3124262 in Win 10 and now I have to select account and enter password

I had Windows 10 setup to NOT require passwords using NETPLWIZ and in the SETTINGS app. This setting hasnt changed. But after restarting following the install of KB3124262, I now have to enter my Microsoft password despite being unchecked in System Settings.
Has anyone had this happen?

The only other change I happened to make prior to system restart is to change the name and description of my computer as it still referred to a Windows 8.1 identifier. I changed it to reflect Windows 10 in the name.

 

Yes, I use it everyday and provide feedback on what works, and what does not work.

 

Awesome, I may be in the right place then because people like us will really find the greatness and not so great Windows 10 LOL

 

I tried Win10 out on VmWare and then after about 30 minutes, tops, I updated my main PC with Win10 over Win8.1 and it's working just fine so far. It's my main PC and I use it all of the time.

Yes, I have set it up to dual boot in a computer that I don't use much.

I have no complaints with it yet and am sure I will install the final copy when it becomes available. I'm already saving my pennies.

 

I dual boot Windows 8.1.1 and Windows 10. I have installed most of the programs I use in Windows 8 into Windows 10. I keep my important data backed up.

 

I've been running Windows 10 as my only OS on my PC since it was first released, no problems so far.

 

I use it everyday with no issues yet. Very stable, I do not store data on it, no need to.

 

when you put it like that i would say go for it ,but if you came here and said nothing ,just lets say ,hi i want to updat my 8.1 to win10 for good ,everyday use then i could see me telling you not to do that beacuse its only a prieview ,ect ect ,but hey you know what your doing so go for it ,enjoy it ,i am running it kind of daily ,but every now and then i uplug the hdd and plug in my win8.1 for a few days .back and forth

 

Using Windows (10) Technical Preview, (is it called Windows 10 officially yet, or not?), every day; enjoy it a lot, surprisingly way more stable than I thought it would be.

 

Yea, I wouldn't worry too much about what some faceless person on a forum thought of me...(I'd be in real big trouble if I did *Biggrin )

But yea, I installed it right off, upgrading my everyday 8.1 install. Works fine.

 

I don't use W10 TP on my pc as my main os but I installed it in Virtual Box and use it almost daily. This way I can try it without any risk. Oracle has updated Virtual Box, now W10 also runs with hardware accelerated graphics (they made the guest additions work). For me that's the ideal base to test a new os.

 

Me too, dual booting with Win8 and use it everyday, no major issues so far, I will update my Win 8.1.1 laptop when it's ready *Biggrin
