Windows 10 1 Month on! Is it the right operating system for me?

W10 is running sweetly for me and I am warming to it.
I came directly from W7.

I just can't get it to download - have tried repeatedly but the "get Windows 10" box fades as soon as it appears and although I've downloded the tool as recommended, when I try to operate it I get the message "problem with startup - restart and try again". Never thought I'd say it, but I'm going to have to stick with Windows 8 after all ( in fact I've bought a Mac instead - much more reliable)

... in fact I've bought a Mac instead ...

That's cheating 

[joboy]

Don't give it away Steve try to get a re-installment some how via rootschat tech guys before you leap or via the W10 forum.

1 am finding new things daily ......... the 'Search Web And Windows' is a great idea.
The hospital that has done a lot of surgery on me over the past six or seven years so by putting the hospital's name into the above and filtering it by using 'My Stuff'(which separates it from Web Stuff) I got everything I needed to know.

I'm just waiting now to see if there are any 'issues' when Win 10 deletes the old system files later today. Wonder if we'll get any warning that it is our last chance to roll back to the previous system

Thanks for the encouragement Joe - I should have said that the Windows laptop will remain in use as well as my new Mac, so I ought to try to upgrade. I am puzzled where to go from here though - there seems to be loads of advice on how to get the app and how to upload before you have the notification, but nothing on my situation, where it appears something is halting the startup of the download. I,ve made sure I have the correct IE version and all my updates are done, so what next?

To answer my own question, I've just noticed the "Windows.old" folder has disappeared without any forewarning. No sign of a "Last chance to rollback" message, not that I want to.

Looks like the 30 days limit is irreversible so be warned

Now I'm wondering what would happen if I ever tried to reinstall Win 7 from the original disk

A quick heads up!
And for those who do not want windows 10, are quite happy with 7/8.

We have all been warned now!
