When Windows 10 comes out: new hopes and new challenges

If you're still wondering when Windows 10 will be released, it's time to face the truth. The updated system has already been officially unveiled. It is available for updating on the official website of Microsoft Corporation. True, there are some problems.

Official release

The presentation of the "top ten" took place a long time ago. The new "OS" was available for beta testing to official partners of the company. However, the expectations of many users did not materialize.

Speaking about when Windows 10 comes out, it is worth noting that from July 29, 2015, an official message appeared on the Microsoft website about the availability of the new system, its main components and innovations, as well as the possibility of installing it in the form of an update. But this only applies to Windows 7 and 8. Unfortunately, for older systems such as Windows Vista or XP, such support is simply not provided. In other words, updating the system will fail. We'll have to create an installation disk and install the “Windows”, as they say, from scratch.

Free update

Answering the question “When will Windows 10 come out?”, It is worth noting not only that the system has already been officially presented, but also one more important factor. The fact is that in the standard version directly on the Microsoft website it is proposed to reserve an update to the "top ten". To do this, you need to make a complete installation of updates for the "seven" and "eight" from the "Windows Update" in the "Control Panel", after which the installation icon "tens" should appear in the system tray.

But this is only according to official data. Believe me, when installing the latest updates for Windows 7 maximum nothing like this happens. Probably, the developers took into account the possibility of such a problem, and suggested that advanced users use the special Media Creation Tool (x64) utility to install the “dozens”, which can be downloaded directly to the computer from the site.

Considering the topic “When will Windows 10 come out, it’s worth noting another aspect. The point here is that the validity period of a free update or installation reservation is limited to one year so far. In addition, downloading the entire distribution requires at least 12 GB of free disk space, although the site claims that the update system takes only three gigs. But that is not all. Paradoxically, during the installation process, the system reports that 3.86 GB is needed to perform the update, and immediately asks you to select a disk or logical partition on which at least 9 GB is free.

Naturally, the temporary installer files will then be deleted, but the question itself is somewhat incomprehensible.

New features and new challenges

Now, returning to the topic “When will Windows 10 come out, let’s dwell on the main characteristics of the system. Although it is argued that such an "OS" in the world has not yet been, and that it has a bunch of innovations, alas, there are quite a few problems that appear immediately after installation.

For example, some Internet browsers cannot be installed by default (the system recommends Microsoft Edge is an updated Internet Explorer), the address you enter does not display the address you enter, language switching changes, and much more.

By the way, previously installed applications work, but new ones cannot be installed. First of all, it concerns optimizers. Even Windows 10 Manager, and he does not want to work, not to mention utilities like CCleaner or Advanced System Care latest versions. The Glary Utilities 2015 application somehow works with difficulty. Access to system processes is practically prohibited even in the Task Manager.

Total

In general, do not rush to move to the "top ten" without extreme need. It will be impossible to cancel its installation.

Regarding the question of when the Windows 10 update will be released, the developers themselves say that no service packs will be created at all. The maximum that may be is the correction of some bugs in the protection system, as well as the restoration of some functions that were deleted during the installation (for example, card games). If we talk about the impression of the system itself, it looks somewhat unusual, you need to get used to it, because even the main menu has changed. But what pleased us was the return of the “Start” button and the ability to save files with going up one level (which was missing in the “seven”). By the way, only in the first day after the system became available, the number of online updates exceeded 14 million.
