[QUOTE="Deleted member 65228, post: 717508"] You can install Windows 10 on a Chromebook but you'll require another system for preparation. Anyway, why would you want to install Windows on a Chromebook? They're designed to use ChromeOS, it comes with the package for it to be a secure environment. ChromeOS has less attack vectors than Windows, OS X and traditional Linux because it provides less usability and features which are enabled/supported, it's also a custom Linux (all Google's OS's are, including Android). I recommend you get another normal system for using Windows if you need to use Windows and keep your Chromebook running ChromeOS for normal tasks you do not require Windows for; you can also remotely connect to the Windows machine from your Chromebook with the aid of an extension. Unless you really need to use Windows, I recommend against using it. If ChromeOS is capable of doing what you need to do (e.g. web-browsing and online banking, some document editing (you can use Google Docs), listening to some online music) then it should be sufficient. [B][I]Stay cautious of malicious Android applications, rogue Google Chrome extensions and online phishing attacks though - those attack vectors will still be present.[/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
