    Will Win10 upgrade automatically if u have the icon on the taskbar?


    I'm not sure I want to upgrade to win10 just yet but will it upgrade anyway if u have the win 10 icon showing?
    Or will the update ask me to install windows 10 before doing anything drastic?
    Thanks.

    :)

    If I upgrade to Windows Phone 8 will I have the ablity to watch videos downloaded with zune on windows 7?

    That is the case for DRM'd media. If you bought the music, it is in an unprotected MP3 format and you can listen to it on about anything. This is not the case for even purchased videos. (There are options for that though)

    Hi tinmisuun!



    Thank you for writing on the Microsoft Support Forum.

    Unfortunately there is a problem listening the music and video downloaded using the Zune Music Pass. You will need to download again the video and the music on your windows phone 8.



    Bye Salvatore.

    Your computer will ask you for permission before the upgrade.

    Hi there
    It usually says you'll get an email from Ms when the Upgrade is ready.

    If you want to "Jump the Gun" go direct for the Media builder and then create iso / usb OR upgrade straight away.

    I got the Windows symbol but as I was re-installing W8.1 and W7 both from scratch - after updates etc I got a direct prompt asking if I wanted to upgrade then and there.

    Timing could be dependent on your location and how busy Ms's servers are. I'd go for creating the ISO via the media creation tool - and then install when YOU want to. Note your system MUST BE ACTIVATED before upgrading -- and Legally activated (not activated by those "alternative methods").

    Cheers
    jimbo

    the reason I was concerned is because recently I had a very long wait for my PC to shut down while it was performing updates and then when I rebooted I noticed this folder on my OS drive $Windows.~BT which is apparently something to do with the win10 update so I thought it might just go and ahead and install win10 because I had the Get Win10 icon showing.

    Will Win10 upgrade automatically if u have the icon on the taskbar?

    It's possible that your computer has already downloaded all the files needed for the upgrade.
    But it won't install it before you give the go ahead.
