Windows 10

Post by lars63 »

Got the download a couple days ago, everything seems to work alright except Edge seems sort of hinky. Library has a sign in agreement page before you can use their WIFI Edge won't even show the page have to use Chrome. Anyone else got it? What do you think

I just spent a couple of days backing stuff up to external HDDs in preparation.

My Windows 10 icon says ready to go but I am hesitant after read a PC magazine in the library that suggest hold on installing for a month or two.

Waits....

Running 10 on a fresh install for about a week, privacy steps followed and Cortana disabled.

daily use appears fine all my usual apps and Steam games operate well

I might update in next month, but I think Cortana won't be much useful for us as it does not support other languages than english. Then the privacy. In Edge there might be also keylogger installed, so do not use Edge for online banking at least. Then ALWAYS use some antivirus solution with resident shield that blocks out attempts to hacker attack via malware. Anyway, the keylogger is pretty dangerous thing of Microsoft. They added it to Preview version. If any hacker could be able to access that keylogger, he could pretty easily remote sending data to his own server and let them go also to their original destination. In preview there was disabled access to online banking due to the present keylogger. If a potential hacker could remote the data, he could also remove that restriction. Well done, Microsoft :disgust:
