Don't install it because you are too uneducated to understand the simple differences between Windows 7 and Windows 10.

>>694256862
do you play modded skyrim?

there's a 8GB (I think? around that number) VRAM+RAM limit on how much memory you can assign to it using enb on win10, up from the base 4GB limit that normally comes with dx9 processes.

On Win7 there is no such limit, you can assign like 20GB or whatever the fuck you like. This may change in the future. I don't know what causes it, whether its driver issue or something with enboost.

FO4 is dx11 so there's no such problem there. Win10 or Win7 won't make difference.

On a side note, how do I avoid installing win10 permanently?

Settings about privacy settings. You can also disable Cortana if you're not interested in using it.

None of it is irreversible last I checked. They just ask you early on and you can change it in the settings later if you change your mind.
>>
>>694258064
>Placebo. Win7 boots fast too.
No, your statement is a placebo. Win7 has a less efficient boot method, loading things like HAL and USB subsystems as well as hotfix indexing well before presenting you with login / proceeding to desktop.
>Useless meme, constantly spies on you
Windows has been constantly spying on you than XP. Google Alexa spyware. It was built into IE5+6. Get over yourself. Your not special. Microsoft doesn't care about you.

I haven't encountered any problems without dx12, and I'm sure a win7 version will be released by someone outside of Microsoft if the demands are high enough. Also I highly doubt vulkan won't replace dx since it's multiplatform and it's already showing similar performance, dx will probably be used only for Windows exclusive games which are hardly worth installing win10. If you want a gaming pc then you shouldn't use it for anything else because of the following:
Windows 10 has a built in keylogger which can be used to get any and all of your passwords used on a device running Windows 10. That's a LOT more spyware than previous versions of windows and I appreciate my privacy too much to let them invade it. And with so much built in monitoring crap there are probably hacker groups trying to find vulnerabilities to steal people's information.
>>
>>694257954
with 10, you can create many desktops and full-screen programs and switch between them with ease by just pressing windows+ctrl and the left and right keys
>>
I have win 10 and it is full of bugs. For example it often gets stuck after booting when you selected the user for like 5-10 mins. And sometimes it also takes forever to shutdown. Also chrome feels way slower now and youtube freezes a lot. I never had that with win 8.1
>>
>>694259226
The multiple desktop environments thing isn't even used that much in Linux, and its been available for forever.

As for fullscreen programs... I'm not sure what you're trying to convey here. Because fullscreen hotkeys have existed for pretty long, as have switching windows.

I tried the upgrade on two of my PC's , rolled them both back because of driver issues. My old lady bought a new laptop for LPN school with win 10, it works flawlessly. I will never upgrade my other PC's , my opinion is if you want win 10, or you want to give it a whirl is buy a new PC, or check it out on some one you know who is running it. From my experience there is alot of built in spyware, and malware, which gives you the option of enabling it or disabling it, if you choose to believe Microsoft will let you do such things considering how unscrupulous they have been pushing their latest greatest winblows on people.
>>
Oh yeah, the forced updates also with no control over updates at all in the home addition, I heard the pro edition gives you control, I have not checked it out though. If you want some one logging very key stroke you make and logging all of your activity online, and don't mind the NSA built in backdoor to monitor you to make sure you are not doing anything they disapprove of, well then by all means go get yourself the latest greatest OS from Microsoft.

So I had win10 for 1 fucking day and downgraded to win7. I have a 1tb hdd in my pc full with anime, games, music and shit. When I started my pc win10 upgrade already initialized. I thought fuck it nothing could happen, since Windows isn't so retarded. After upgrade I checked the settings, installed some drivers. Started to play league and had 10 more fps on higher settings. I was like "damn win10 seems to be a good OS " . 1 day later I start my pc and wanted to watch an anime which was already on my hdd. "850GB free out of 928 GB " says C:/.
Mistakes were made. Directly started recovery but no chance. Downgraded to win7 and only cried about 2 hours in my bed.
>>
I'd throw it on another drive so that you have to copy. But be sure to back up your current build so that if you don't like it you can go back to Win7 or whatever the fuck you run. I'm just gonna pick up a laptop soon with Win10 so that I can learn it without having to throw it on my main machine.

>>694256862if your going to update, your best bet is to download win10 and put it on a flash drive and install it yourself. that way you can back up anything you want to keep.

when i was forced into installing it, when i came home it had installed itself, i inputted settings and when i shut my pc down it wouldn't boot up, ended up having to download it to a flash drive, reformated my HD and was stuck with win10 every sense, my recovery DVD's i made wouldn't even work, not even with a brand new HD.

also i heard it will put every image it finds into the screensaver, a good way to show off your porn collection

Win 10 updates are anoying as fuck.

>>
consider microsofts recent buisness models eg: the xbone needing to be always on and have an internet connection. and arguably their recent affinity for adobe who have implemented a system that also requires constant internet access to work

and then there is the underhanded methods they have used to force people to update which i have no reasonable doubt to think was totally deliberate on their part

i honestly think they intend to force people to update to windows 10 and then setup a monthly license that requires constant internet access or the pc simply wont run

thoughts?

also considering the advances wine has made into cracking .exe to function correctly i think in the next 2 years linux is gonna see huge leaps in usage and support but the thing is almost every program you have to pay a huge premium for has a linux equivalent that is totally free (except vidya which is also seeing large support shifts)

all you fuckers staying with windows 7 or 8, here is where your problems will start:

though win10 not the best, upgrade now why you can do it for free, don't keep your old system cause your are an autist afraid of changes. In the end you will have to upgrade anyway and then you have to pay

The difference was 7 required more resources to run and looked like vista which was a disaster OS, and 10 is a complete bloated botnet. Windows 7 is a personal desktop OS while 10 is a cloud hybrid. XP isn't bad actually, you can still run it if you want but it's problem was it fragmented HDD data too much (which I don't think is relevant anymore if they've updated it or if you use an SSD) while win7 was more stable in that respect. I have yet to see anything windows 10 significantly improved over 7 other than:
>muh directX and games
As >>694267519 said, a lot of people were actually running Windows XP at the time announcement was made saying support is dropped probably around 40% of Windows users. And reasons against upgrading to 10 make much more sense than those against 7.

Which distro?
>>
how do you get these messages to update? do you have autoupdate enabled. i always manually choose what i want to update and make a backup right before the update just in case they pull some faggot shit and i need to roll back.

>Lack of privacy means an inherent weakness in security.

Sorry, that's wrong. Apple continually collects data on all of their iPhone users, yet that platform is extremely secure.

Also, your rocks in the hamburger analogy is not valid at all to the point you're attempting to make.

If you want to stay with Win, update now.

Kernel 4.7-rc7, minimal buld
apt

Not to the extent of Win10.

Fuck Linux needs some better game support then I can drop BS Micro$oft.
>>
>>694262855
Then you learned the lesson, always have a back up.

Don't fucking do it anon!

>>694258259
DX12 hasn't seen widespread use either.
>>
get Entp. ESD from Goysoft
get MSMG-ToolKit
unzip MSMG
copy the *.esd file to "\ToolKit-v4.7\DVD\sources"
start the cmd as admin (ToolKit-v*)
source (1)
Conv.... (5)
press "y"
wait...
remove the shit out
..
convert if you like, use it
>>
>>694272269

I feel u, anon. Linux is just the best OS concerning security, especially if selfcompiled :)


>>694272788

Linux has quite a good game support, just use wine and you can play almost all win games

I am an it professional and have installed windows 10 everywhere, it really is a great os, and I wish I worked for someone to pay me say this, but the internet is filled with braindead idiots who hear privacy derp and then stick with XP and get hacked. If Microsoft wants your data, it doesnt need Windows 10 to get it.

Get windows 10, it works great if you arent a fucking stupid piece of shit.

Enjoy your day faggot.

Windows 10 pro, 20% of my games now let my pc crash and reboot

Windows 7 Ultimate

Does everything I need

dx12 is a meme
no games are using it

>>694273213
And who the fuck here worries about security vulnerabilities? I have a greater chance of MS stealing my personal info more than someone taking advantage of a flaw.
>>
>>694257257

I bet you have lots of friends.


OP, install 10. You'll have to do a few minor things like hook up your printer/scanner whatever to your PC, but it's worth it in the long run.
>>
Fuck that shit. Win 10 is a privacy nightmare. Don't update.

They have explicitly stated ten is free until the deadline and will remain free for updates.

Ten works well for me, on new and even on older laptops.

Add Spybot Anti-Beacon to Windows 10 and move on with your lives.

>>694273509

That is Wireshark, a network sniffer to monitor what's going on in your/ any other network
>>
>>694273509
Wireshark caught multiple connection sending data to Microsoft servers despite having all privacy settings set to OFF
>>
>>694256862
downgrade to windows xp grandpa
>>
>>694258624
Minitools Partition Wizard is free and dead easy.
>>
>>694265488
You also have them "trying" (Keyword as they're going to fucking fail) to make the Universal Windows Platform like the Apple Store, closed and run like a bunch of nazi's. And being that it's their OS they can fuck with those that don't comply.
>>
>>694273511
>free
Good thing Microsoft became a charity organization, right? Oh wait.
>>
>>694273509
So wireshark sits on your network interface and records all the internet traffic going in and out of it. As you can see, there's quite a bit of traffic going on, but that's actually pretty normal. When he goes to turn off background applications, you can see a bulk of that traffic stops. Wether or not that is from 10 would need further analysis on the traffic, but it certainly seems that it is from 10.

They're probably going to start phasing out the OS's costing money. At least they will eventually. There is no point in the trying when they cannot seem to kill Win 7's sales and continued mass market share.

Even giving away the OS for free for over a year, they STILL didn't even come close to beating Win 7's userbase. It was like 11% for Win 10 and 60% for Win 7. And the damn OS was free.

They made a great OS in 7, so there is no reason to switch when it still works perfectly.

I see if so that really is troublesome, thanks for the explanation

You can't "configure updates" in 10 Home. In 10 Pro you can delay the installation of updates for up to three months. MS recognise that Update Tuesday is a fucking nightmare for businesses. Meanwhile the rest of us Home schmucks are unpaid beta testers. So far it's been mostly OK, but wait til they really fuck something up.

The problem is, Windows 10 doesn't actually give you an option to "stop spying on me". It's possible if you're using Windows 10 Enterprise, but I still wouldn't put a half-baked shitware on my production pool. That being said, If you're in charge of your company network, I hope you get fired.
>>
>>694272507
You could be in big trouble when you try to update to ten if you have missed a bunch of 7 updates. Read up at askwoody.com, there will be articles, last one I saw was about a week ago.
>>
>>694273352
Yeah, good luck with that.
>>
>>694273893
Don't disagree, bro. Cliche = If the product is free, you are the product. MS proves it here with the telemetry.
>>
>>694256862
Windows 10 is actually pretty sweet. Its all the good things from 7 and 8.1, with almost none of the bad.
Plus, ctrl+shift+escape as a shortcut straight to task manager is glorious
>>
>>694275782
Bait? Windows 7 and 8 have the same shortcut.
>>694273268
This. Vulkan was actually accepted by more companies than directX
