Windows 10 (2015)Updated Oct. 2016 & April 2017 Windows 10 in short is too new. On the positive side, Microsoft has combined Windows 7 & 8.1. The unknown issue will be how they will deal with the login and UEFI / secure boot issues. Update below (October 2016)Free upgrade is overThere will be some computers that will still have their free upgrade process, as a result of the owners Internet access and computer settings. In short, this is mostly because they had their computer set for automatic updates at the time they had downloaded the file that starts this process. Eventually Microsoft will arrange to delete or default that file to fail. Recovery/UpgradeOne of the changes that Microsoft has added to the process of free & future upgrades, is that once you have done the upgrade (free or paid), it is wise to do a Recovery. Once you have completed the recovery, you then have a full and complete version of Windows 10 with no version of Windows 7 or 8.1 remaining. Update below (April 2017)For use northern or remote community users, we need to make sure that we do a recovery and in the process turn off all the extra bits of software that come free with Windows 10.
