I'm giving this ago in my VM. Thanks for the download links. As a little "tip" for those who install this in a Vmware, you should select "Windows 8" as "Guest Operating System".

The installation was fast and easy (it took like 10 minutes on SSD). I like that booted directly to "desktop mode" without going through that Metro "crappy" interface.
I'll be back with some more details. Hopefully Windows 10 will be free for those who own Windows 8.1, as I'm not paying again for OS. : P

How to Make the Windows 10 Start Menu Look More Like Windows 7

The Windows 10 Start Menu is really quite busy with all of those live tiles all over it. If that isn’t your thing, luckily you can remove them all really easily.

Simply right-click on the tiles and choose Unpin from Start.

Once they are all gone, the Start Menu will be nice and slim again.

You can also change the color of the Start Menu by right-clicking on any open space on the menu and choosing Personalize from the context menu.

This will bring up a color selector that allows you to make the change easily.

Pinning Tiles Back to the Start Menu
If you want to put the tiles back, you can simply go to the All Apps view, right-click on the app that has a live tile, and choose to pin to the Start Menu again.

Now if they would just remove that stupid Search button from the taskbar.

hello

after trying Win 10 it's not much different than Win 8.1

but unless Microsoft fixes this 350mb recovery partition being added every-time some people with
OEM computers restore back from there factory original partition to restore there computer if
thay have trouble back to Windows 8

http://malwaretips.com/threads/too-many-recovery-partitions.32625/

now about the only way i could see this happen is if people like VirusAttak and me that have had
this partition added when we restored is to give us a Windows 10 Key so we could start new

VirusAttak had 13 of this recovery partitions and was lucky he had a Windows 8 DVD and Key so he
could start new again

i know there has to be more people out there with this problem

what happens when we add Windows 10 on top of this problem ?

I've installed it as my main OS after performing a backup on a separate partition and also an disk image of my previous OS [Win 8.1 Update 1 x64]. First impressions so far is that I love the new fade-in animations when opening a window and the Start menu looks good and it feels more 'Modern' so to speak.

But there is a slight problem! Some users may not want to update their Windows 10 computer to any new build and they don't want to receive any update for some reasons. In such situations. There is no option given to permanently disable this Updates since Microsoft has disable the option and force windows 10 Technical preview to get all new updates and you regularly get them.

i hardly suppose it will be able to get anything outside the Virtual Machine

 

[McLovin]

I'm liking Windows 10 so far!

Doesn't matter if I use a VM or Spare PC, I still disagree with the Data Collection rules, there's no work around except for waiting the final release.

 

[woomera]

downloaded and installed first day on my main machine after making a backup.
runs smooth with no issues other than mouse lags during games.
i like the new features though i hope they make it so the virtual desktops settings gets saved and restored on restarts.
right now ehen u create a new desktop after the restart its gone and its back to just 1.

 

[McLovin]

Okay I find this annoying. I have the screen resolution at 1280x720 and you can't open apps that way (using a VM). So I don't know if it is because of the VM, but it would really suck if it stays like this.
