    I got a new computer yesterday that came with Windows 7. As soon as I activated it I downloaded the media creation tool and upgraded to Windows 10. Very easy, no problems. Windows 10 looks great so far. Windows 7 comes with IE8 and the page to download the upgrade tool does not load in IE8 so I actually had to install chrome first. That does seem weird. :^)

      Isn't obtaining Chrome what IE8 was designed for?

        Could be. Because it was successful at that job. :thumbsup: :-\

          Using WIN 10 from past 2 weeks, Good experience so far. But not using Edge , it is consuming more memory than Chrome and mozilla... :-O

            I agree, Been using it since early august and it does a lot better than the windows 8.1 my PC was delivered with. It resembles windows 7, which I have been used too since 2010, quite well so yes: for now it looks like a job well done. Mind you: for now it is probably just a question of time until disaster hits.

              I've had Win10 on a laptop for about 3 weeks now, but have used it very little, still preferring to work in the familiar environment of Win7 with a full-sized keyboard. Eventually though, I plan on retiring or re-purposing my 6 y/o main development machine and using the laptop full time. I really only have one issue with IE/Edge where it wants to change the file extension for a file I'm downloading (for instance, a .bacpac file) to .zip because there is no file association. As for a .bacpac file at least, changing the file extension back after download corrupts the file. I switched to Chrome a few months ago and haven't really missed IE. :)
