Working well for me, still having trouble changing the coloured icons that appear on the taskbar.

Works fine for me.

Can you at least type in commands for Cortana?
I like the idea of a pet slut slave but I don't feel like talking to the computer very slowly because she's a retard that won't understand otherwise.

Also I have neighbours.

CORTANA LOOK FOR HOT ANTHRO PONY PORN.

And then she opens bing and I have to whip her.

install classic shell, scrub

>can't change titlebar colors
Get insider build from windows update
>who wants to talk to their computer
I guess because windows 10 was made to be universal across pcs and phones they just included every single phone feature into pc version, but what's more weird - not vice versa
>no longer gives an option for "add shortcut to desktop"
Just drag and drop baka
>couldn't figure out how to get "This PC/My Computer" on desktop, same with "User Folder"
Right click on desktop, click personalization, in the settings app choose Themes tab, and click on Desktop icon settings link
>updates
Well you did upgrade for the first time, what did you expect? Similar thing would happen if you wanted to do a fresh widows 7 install, but with more updates
>>

>>everything too white and gray. can't change titlebar colors so active windows don't look like active windows
Settings > Personalization > Show color on Start, taskbar, action center and titlebars > On
>>new icons are ugly wire-frames
They look way better than the glossy ones of W7/8.
>>adds on Start Menu and above taskbar clock telling me about "Office 365" (even though Office 13 was already bought and installed on the machine)
You can remove those with 2 clicks.
>>Cortana just as useless as Siri (who the fuck wants to talk to their computer?)
If you use local account like a normal human bean then you don't get Cortana.
>>new Start Menu fucking blows. I installed Office 2013 and had trouble getting the icons on the desktop. Right-clicking on the Start Menu Word icon no longer gives an option for "add shortcut to desktop"
"What is classic shell"
>>couldn't figure out how to get "This PC/My Computer" on desktop (granted I didn't look very long, but why they changed how you do accomplish this I have no idea)
You just drag the icon to desktop.
>>same with getting "User Folder" onto desktop
Same as above, you just drag it on desktop.
>>updates annoying as fuck. They download and install on their own, then you have to restart. Upon shutdown it says "working on updates". Upon boot it says "working on updates", then it went into numerous black and blue screens where it said "Hey" to me a bunch of times
You can disable updates in Services.msc.
>>auto installed touchpad driver that removed a few features
That's why you disable "get automatic updates for my devices" when installing the OS, you can also disable it after install in Device Manager.
>>Edge fucking sucks balls
True.

>inb4 le shill because I corrected him

Post screencap of your own desktop or get the fuck out.

Why would you use Groove/WMP when Foobar2k exists
>>
>>52132786
takes some balls to use custom themes on your main machine

>>52132786
Looks too cluttered.

Are these reliable instructions?

I couldn't install Win7 on my laptop, no USB3.0 driver support. Went with Win10 Pro. Need to activate it/remove the useless shit/run anti-spyshilling scripts etc.

Should I give it a chance or just try to go back to Win 7?

I dual boot with Xubuntu.

Windows 10 has been trash since a few months into the previews. You should know this by now, old knews dude.
>>
>>52134388
just use WMP, it just works.
