Most normies that have to use Windows (either as part of their regular office job or at home because they don't know there are alternatives) hate the direction Microsoft has taken with this sloppy half-done beta release they're shoving onto their consumers. The only people that still defend it are fatass gayming neckbeards in denial because they need Windows in order to maintain their "PC MASTURRRR RAYCE XD" status

Upgrades have been available for free for years, and is still actually being offered, as i've upgraded from Windows 7 to 10 for free with a valid license.

>>60315533
Yes, that requires previously owning an older copy. Plus Windows 7 is vastly superior.

>>60314841
Try again with chrome os

>>60315584
Owning a previous copy of windows does equate to the price you'd have to pay for a full new copy of windows, they were given a FREE copy. Also, Windows 10 has trial periods where you can test any version of their software for 30 days, and still use it afterwords with some services like Windows Update removed, so it's technically still free.

FTFY

I think it might be fixed now, but Windows Update was broken for like ~6 months where certain important prerequisite updates were moved and the catalog still pointed to the old location, causing any copy of windows 7 without them (i.e. a pre-sp1 retail build) to be unable to update.

You had to find a list of the missing updates, download the redist versions, and install them manually.

>>60314791
I pressed Ctrl+Esc, it showed the Start menu
Was something supposed to happen?

>>60317140
Try holding it down and it will flicker on and off like crazy, unlike with the start key. This also happens on 7 and 8.1.

>>60317140
hold it down and it flashes a bit. I didn't see the issue either.

Are there actually people that use windows 10 for something other than games? I'd rather a PC that ran iOS.

There's nothing to defend when it comes to user error.

>>60315155
All I ever do is install classic shell which takes 2 seconds. I mean, I don't even have to do that, I just like the appearance of the Win7 menu better. Feels good not using Linux on the desktop like the retards on this board.

You press your K key. 'K' is written.

You hold down K key. 'K' is written repeatedly unless you stop pressing the button.

Press Windows key shortcut. The menu opens.
Press it again. It closes.
Hold down Windows key. It toggles infinitely unless you let it go.

What are you idiots complaining about????????????????

>>60317720
Did you know if you hold alt+tab it constantly flickers back and forth between your open windows?

And if you hold ctrl+f4 it will close every program you have open in rapid succession?

Windows has been broken for decades!!!!!!!!!!

Software can tell the difference between a key being pressed, held, and released. Your K example is actually a great demonstration of this because it doesn't start repeating until a set amount of time has passed. It's obviously intended behavior. But why would they intend for you to be able to flicker the menu?

>>60315155
Literally this.

I've had to do this twice now. I like Windows 10 for the visuals and I'm not really a power user, just browsing, email, word processing and school, so I see no point in Linux. But God damn I hate the idea of running a botnet as my OS.

Sounds about right.

Use whatever OS you want to use and let others do the same. You all call windows and macOS users shills but here you all are bickering like 40 year old mothers. Linux is good for some things, windows is good for others. MacOS is shit but that's just a fact.

Honestly if you care this much about someone's preference, get yourself checked for autism.
