Windows 10 (latest problems)

[Cleoriff]

I wonder how many people are experiencing problems with Windows 10?

Interesting article here about the 'forced updates causing endless crash loops'

My husband successfully installed it on his Toshiba laptop and has now removed it.

He found all library folders (documents pictures music etc) were 'read only' and could not be changed..

Apparently Microsoft have known about it since beta testing and have done nothing about it (from the forums he accessed to see if there was a fix)

It took 3 attempts to install Windows 10 and Cortana has no microphone icon. Seems to be a problem with some others, who were told that it maybe doesn't recognise built in mic..possibe driver issue x

I would go so far as to say that anyone who has upgraded and says they don't have any issues are either disillusioned or haven't fully used it to the extent it needs to be.

agree @jonsie..just looked on the feeedback page..some irate people there  x

Anyone actually got cortana and one drive working? Voice control is also a joke...I switch the TV on and all sorts of strange things happen

Well my husband got Cortana installed and working @Cairdeas and @jonsie. He seemed to enjoy for 2 days the company of a woman who didn't argue....but then the other faults outweighed his delight. So she got removed when he rolled back to 8.1

My Cortana is a little bit like my wife...only understands what she wants to and then does exactly the opposite of what I want her to do. Guess I need to upgrade the wife too....

I couldn't get on with Windows 8 so I'm still on my old 7 laptop and I think I'll be staying that way!  My husband is thinking of upgrading one of his laptops so I'm leaving him to it!

Best idea for hubby @Cleoriff.. I'd roll back too.. But the bother I had to get it on I don't want to hit problems the way back lol. @Anonymous ..I loved windows 7! X

[Cleoriff]

I still have Win 7 on my laptop here and the one in Spain...so am not changing one without the other. If it aint broke...it don't need fixing sez me. Also.....I probably wouldn't get on with Cortana *sniffs*
