Should I Upgrade to Windows 10?
Should I upgrade to Windows 10? This is one of the most asked questions right now.
The answer is: NO! Why?
We get calls every day from our clients that their computers don’t work because they ‘ve upgraded to Windows 10.
Their audio does not work, their Internet stopped working, video, programs, etc. I can tell you in my opinion that Windows 10 will eventually become one of the best editions but needs to work out its bugs, errors just like any other newly launched operating system or software.
When Windows XP, 7 or 8 came out, these all needed a break-in period, it is just how it goes. I think Windows 10 will need at least 1 year from now to correct any issues and security vulnerabilities.
I Love Windows 10
I love it because it took the best of Windows 7 features and design and integrated it with the new fast core engine and style of Windows 8, hence is superior and more efficient.
If you are not a Tech or an IT, do not dare to upgrade, chances that something will go wrong are high based on the calls we are getting.
Should I upgrade to Windows 10?
We did because we know how to work out the bugs and we also know how to restore it all back if something won’t work.
Are we enjoying it?
Yes, very much, but this is not a chance you can afford to take. If you still wish to upgrade to Windows 10, we strongly recommend you to backup all your data, make sure you have re-installation discs for your programs like Office, Adobe Photoshop, and for any other paid software.
If you do not possess these discs, make sure you will be able to re-download these programs from the Internet and that you do have the license number for the reactivation.
No Sticker, No License Key
Most importantly, if you are on Windows 8, ensure you have the re-installation disc for this operating system, same for Windows 7. Remember that most Windows 8 computers do not come with the disc anymore and neither the sticker with the license key.
It is also true that in a year from now, you might have to pay for Windows 10 and it won’t be free by then. You want to weigh the risk of getting this freebie and you want to consider these recommendations.
