    Please see screen shot below. The Disk Cleanup is calling the OS Windows8, yet the Windows Specifications is saying the edition is Window 10 Home. Why is this? It looks like Windows 10.

    why is there a windows 10 app for netflix?

    Yes, it's no longer the windows phone OS. It's just Windows 10. And yes, the app is perfect for the phone.

    DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 10 NOW - Upgrade and ISO direct from microsoft

    No its built into Windows, just open disk cleanup and select 'Clean up system Files' button on the bottom left- now you'll see previous installs of Windows listed under list of cleanable items. My old install is a whopping 25GB of my 256GB SSD.
