Solve : Computer Shuts off at random intervals? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>I have bought a new computer from gumtree and it has worked fine for around a month however recently it has been experiencing issues. It seemed to start happening when I began to play Dota 2 but its all I have been using the computer for since I began playing since I have loved it. Every so often I will be happily playing when the screen will go black and my monitor will notify me that their is not signal before restarting and working fine once again. When I bought the computer I became aware that it was running a pirated version of windows 8.1 and I am planning to buy the proper operating system within the next week. I am wondering whether this is the reason it shuts down as I remember reading somewhere that microsoft will make your computer restart every <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/hour-243320" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HOUR">HOUR</a> if you are running a pirated copy of windows. However it does not seem to happen every hour as sometimes it will run for extended periods. The crash often occurs within 20 minutes of the computer starting if it will occur. I was experiencing an issue with drivers that caused a BSOD but I seem to have resolved that issue through reinstalling windows. All <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/fans-984536" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FANS">FANS</a> in the computer are working fine so I do not <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/think-661001" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about THINK">THINK</a> it is overheating however correct me if I am wrong about that. My PC Specs are: <br/>AMD Fx(tm)-8320 Eight-Core Processor <br/>6 Gb of ram (3.98 usable) <br/>AMD Radion R7 200 series graphics card <br/>Asrock 980DE3/U3S3 R2.0 Motherboard <br/>Any help is appreciated, Thanks!Your post is confusing since at the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/end-239295" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about END">END</a> you say you seem to have resolved it by reinstalling Windows. While I can assure you that the issue has nothing to do with Microsoft, I'm going to have to lock this thread. We cannot assist anyone who is running pirated software / operating systems.</p></body></html> | |

Solve : Windows recovery CRASHED...? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>Hi,<br/>So I'm stuck with this problem and I don't know a way out...<br/>When I recovered a Toshiba satalite laptop <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/form-240719" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FORM">FORM</a> windows 10 to 8.1 it crashed. So that probably means that all the files are gone... But that's not even the biggest problem. The screen of the laptop was broken and I used an secondary screen. With the update everything was okay, but when this happened my secondary screen also didn't work anymore! Probably because there ain't no driver installed right now, or is it something else?<br/><br/>So my question is: How can I make the secondary screen work, to install windows again, or do a factoryreset at the beginning? Or is this unhelpable? <br/><br/><a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/thank-1731949" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about THANK">THANK</a> you!<br/>LukaHow <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/exactly-977868" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EXACTLY">EXACTLY</a> did you run this Recovery ? ?In the settings of windows.Thats less info than i asked for...there's a few recovery options in Windows....which one exactly did you run ? ?I went left down at the windows button and went to settings, I opened "Update &<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/amp-363144" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about AMP">AMP</a>; Security", went to "recovery" and hitted "Go back to a pervious version of Windows.<br/><br/>It worked but halfway it crashed.

Solve : Slow laptop when plugged in but not on battery? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>I have an Acer Aspire ES1-512 x64-based PC (laptop) with Windows 8.1 6.3.9600 N/A <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/build-403683" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about BUILD">BUILD</a> 9600. When it is using the battery (not plugged in) it is fine, but recently it began to behave very, very slowly whenever I plugged it in (while charging or NOT charging the battery). Is there a setting I inadvertently set to make this happen? Please <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/help-239643" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HELP">HELP</a>!

When using the battery, it opted for maximum speed, but when it was plugged in, it opted for minimum speed. I reset it and it immediately began to behave properly again. I have no idea how that happened, I certainly did not do it knowingly. Someone may have hacked into my system.</p></body></html> | |

Configure your PC to boot from USB. If your USB drive is bootable and your PC supports booting from USB, then you need to walk into the BIOS and configure it to boot from USB. In order to enter the BIOS, you need to reboot your PC and press a specific key as soon as you see your PC reboots.

Solve : Default gateway doesn't appear in ARP table; DHCP does assign IP address? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>Hi all, this is my first time posting on one of these forums so I apologize if I leave out any necessary information:<br/><br/>OS: Windows 8.1 <br/>Computer make/model: HP Envy dv7<br/>Wi-Fi adapter: Qualcomm Atheros AR9485<br/>Router type: Arris DG1670A<br/>AV software: Avast Free<br/><br/>In the middle of the day yesterday my laptop lost the ability to connect to the Internet via the Wifi in my apartment building. It connects to other Wifi networks no problem, including an iPhone hotspot and public coffee shop Wifi; also, my other devices, including iPhone and Roku, have no trouble connecting to the Wifi in my building. So the problem is only between my laptop and this particular wifi router.<br/><br/>DHCP on this router does assign my laptop an IP address (192.168.0.11); the default gateway (192.168.0.1) and subnet mask (255.255.255.0) that my laptop receives are the same ones that my iPhone and other devices that connected successfully receive. But pinging the default gateway returns either (most commonly) a "Request timed out" or (occassionally) "Destination host unreachable."<br/><br/>I checked my ARP table using arp -a and it turns out that the default gateway is not being added to the ARP table; there is no entry for 192.168.0.1 in the table. I tried making a manual entry using:<br/><br/>netsh interface ip add neighbors "Wi-Fi" 192.168.0.1 [The router's MAC address]<br/><br/>and the entry was successfully added (confirmed by arp -a), but nothing <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/else-printfy-344787" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ELSE">ELSE</a> changed; pinging the default gateway still returned the same non-result.<br/><br/>I've tried disabling my firewall and AV shields; I've tried deleting the ARP cache with netsh interface ip delete arpcache. <br/><br/><strong>The one thing I can't do is <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/manuallybrbr-2814100" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MANUALLY">MANUALLY</a> reset the router</strong>, because it's controlled by my landlord and I don't physically have access to the router box (I got the router's MAC address by looking at the ARP table for the iPhone that connected successfully). But since other devices can connect to the router with no problems, I'm not sure that would help anyway.<br/><br/>Thank you very much in advance for your help. I appreciate any advice given!What is the signal strength between router and the devices? Some devices are more sensitive to a weak or <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/inconsistent-1040229" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about INCONSISTENT">INCONSISTENT</a> signal strength.<br/><br/>Is this connection one where the landlord offered you free wifi or they just happen to have it unsecured and open for anyone to connect to?<br/><br/>If the landlord offers free internet in the apartment, what would be the odds of having them give you a Cat 5 or Cat6 cable run to your apartment from one of their routers available ports... Thought here is that if they allowed this, then you can add your own wireless router to that connection and provide your own stronger strength wifi and do away with this issue possibly. Your router would <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/daisy-433939" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DAISY">DAISY</a> <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/chain-769054" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CHAIN">CHAIN</a> off of theirs.

AM Im using windows 8.1 enterprise or something??? no im a basic home user I dont need crazy networking security.For the same reason that you have a problem sending a letter through the post when you write the destination address, return address, and affix a stamp, but do not put it in the postbox.<br/><br/>Setting permissions on a folder is quite different from actually making it available in much the same way.Hey this is old but I wanted to reopen because I just <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/read-619994" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about READ">READ</a> your reply. Don't you agree that putting the letter in the box is way different then getting it ready?

Solve : Back up my OS Win 8? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>G'Day..I recently purchased a laptop and I was told I need to do a BackUp of the system.How do I go about doing this? I purchased a Flash Drive.<br/> Could you <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/please-601513" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PLEASE">PLEASE</a> help me Thank you..The best backup method is disc imaging. Here is something I put together a few years ago:<br/><br/>Disk Imaging software takes a "snapshot" of your drive as it exists at the time you create the image. You can then restore the entire image or any file(s) or folder(s) you choose. It is a virtually foolproof way of backing up your system and <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/providing-1171130" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PROVIDING">PROVIDING</a> a safe haven in the event of a catastrophe that requires you to blow away your system <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/partition-238933" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PARTITION">PARTITION</a> and restore it to a previous state. It also allows you to "test" various software and be confident that you have a the ability to return to the prior state any time you choose.<br/><br/> <br/>I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/use-241643" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about USE">USE</a> Acronis True Image. It is the best of breed, but it isn't free. The best free <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/alternative-858623" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ALTERNATIVE">ALTERNATIVE</a> is Macrium Reflect. <br/><br/><br/>1) I create an image of my system partition once a week to a second hard drive and keep the 2 or 3 most recent images. I also image my other partitions about once a month. I always enable "verify image" in the options. It takes a little longer, but insures a valid image.<br/><br/>2) I also create an image before performing any drive level function (ie, changing the size of a partition) or making any significant change to the OS (installing a service pack, upgrading IE, etc). Also sometimes before installing new software.<br/><br/>3) Images may be created on any medium (cd, dvd, external drive, etc). For obvious reasons they should not be stored on the same drive you are imaging. The best option is a second internal hd if you have one and, if you're really ambitious, to an external drive as well (one week to the internal, one week to the external). That's actually the procedure I follow.<br/><br/>4) Images may be created "in the background" within the OS. If you need to restore the system partition, that will need to be done before the OS loads. You can start the process within the application in the OS and it will then tell you it needs to reboot to finish the process. Alternatively, you can boot to a "recovery disk" which you can create when you first install the software (or to the application disk itself if you have one). Other partitions can be restored without a reboot.<br/> Thank you so much Allen. This is a whole new ballgame for me, and<br/>I appreciate the help.You're welcome - that's what we're here for</p></body></html> | |

Solve : updating multiple machines? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>Hey guys! So here is the deal, <br/><br/>I have 4 Machines that are running windows 8. Not 8.1. Since i havnt been home in a while, i figured id do some tech work for my family and get these machines running windows 10. But since microsofts update to windows 10 requires 7 or 8.1 then i need these machines running 8.1 however since my internet is very slow i was wondering if there was anywhere i could download ONE 8.1 executable update, that way i dont have to eat up my internet downloading the same update for 4 different machines. All but one are running 64bit windows 8 Pro. Thanks <br/><br/>When you identify yourself as an IT administrator, MS will provide one download for all computers in your group, provided they all use the same Windows 8.1 OS and need the same updates<br/><br/><em>However, it is very hard to find it now.</em> It seems that all attention is now on Windows 10.<br/>Well the only IT Admin i am is of my home haha. I have found some links online, but i do not want to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/venture-723455" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about VENTURE">VENTURE</a> and risk a virus of cracked software. All my windows copies must be legit to minimize issues. What Geek-9pm means is that the "offline installers" for most larger Microsoft updates are normally named " for Network Administrators". This would typically be the full downloaded version as opposed to some patches where the "standard" version is a tiny executable which just downloads the actual patch from Microsoft when you run it.<br/><br/>The question you pose is interesting as Microsoft hasn't, as far as I know, provided an offline installer as such for <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/updating-250800" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about UPDATING">UPDATING</a> Windows 8 to 8.1. The best I could find are these two links here:<br/><a href="http://mcakins.com/2013/10/19/download-windows-8-1-iso-using-you-windows-8-0-key/">http://mcakins.com/2013/10/19/download-windows-8-1-iso-using-you-windows-8-0-key/</a><br/><a href="https://superuser.com/questions/661402/is-there-a-way-i-can-share-the-3-42-gb-download-of-windows-8-1-from-windows-stor">https://superuser.com/questions/661402/is-there-a-way-i-can-share-the-3-42-gb-download-of-windows-8-1-from-windows-stor</a><br/><br/>I don't have a Windows 8 key to test this with to make sure it works, but I would say it's worth a try.<br/><br/>I assume once you have the machines on 8.1 you'll be doing an upgrade install to Windows 10 from within Windows 8.1 - guessing you've already created install media for Windows 10 to do this? If not, you'll want this link to the media creation tool - <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10">https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10</a> - that'll save you downloading Windows 10 four times, too. On a positive note, it'll also be the latest, or near-latest, version so you'll have very few updates to download and install afterwards.<br/><br/>Hope this helps Thanks Calum, <br/><br/>I might give that a shot. I know these executables <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/exist-979486" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EXIST">EXIST</a> as when i worked at a tech store (wont name it due to privacy) we had installers as such (offline updater is the correct term thanks for reminding me) and i would simply plug the flash drive in, drag either the 32 or 64 (99% of the time the 64) onto the desktop and <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/double-246357" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DOUBLE">DOUBLE</a> click it. The rest would be done for me VIA the installer and within maybe an hour depending on how beefy the machine is id be running 8.1. From what I've read, the offline installers for the 8->8.1 update are only available for volume licenses and MSDN subscribers, and these installers will not update a retail or OEM version of Windows 8. I can't confirm this as I haven't tested it myself though.Well at work we used them to upgrade customer machines as our internet was quite slow so we had these installers. Quite helpful and fast, while using less time to download each update. <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42327"><strong><em>See Here...</em></strong></a> Quote from: patio on December 14, <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/2015-291056" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 2015">2015</a>, 06:13:10 PM</p><blockquote><a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42327"><strong><em>See Here...</em></strong></a><br/></blockquote> <br/>Confusingly, that's the Windows 8.1 Update - the update to Windows 8.1 - no, actually I can't think of a less confusing way to word it. It's not the update from 8.0 to 8.1 anyway but a collection of updates which can only be installed on Windows 8.1. If you check the system requirements, 8.1 is required, so unfortunately this isn't the holy grail in this case They sure make things interesting....<br/>Thanx for the heads up Calum.</body></html> | |

Solve : Please help, windows boot problem? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>I've got this weird problem almost from a month back.<br/>I have an acer ultrabook, which I bought about a year ago.<br/>I was using win 8 when I first encountered this problem.<br/>When I revoke my PC from sleep mode, everything seems fine (keyboard backlight lights up, mouse icon appears and can be moved around, win 8 sign-in page shows) until my screen displays the sign-in page for a second, the screen starts to have no response. The mouse icon can still be moved, but whatever I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/type-238192" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TYPE">TYPE</a> in from my keyboard, the screen background seemed to be freezed. It seems to be disconnected somehow.<br/><br/>I can force to shutdown (by pressing power button long enough) then reboot my PC. However, it takes more than 5 mins to boot, and before it <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/goes-1732621" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GOES">GOES</a> into the OS, it shows a bluescreen, and tells me "The computer runs into a problem, and needs to be automatically restarted". Then it goes to restart again, and the second <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/time-19467" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TIME">TIME</a> takes less than 5 min, it will eventually enter into the OS. This case applies to whenever I restart a PC or I boot up the PC from shutdown. It happens EVERY single time. I need to wait it to boot twice before using it.<br/><br/>After the computer is booted, it can perform all the tasks normally. So I don't think it is a very serious issue. But it is just annoying. Before it had this problem, it could be booted in 1 min, now I have to wait for 10 min. And I can't close the lid, because it will go into the sleep mode.<br/><br/>I thought it could be an OS issue. Since it just started happening around the time when my <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/system-238321" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SYSTEM">SYSTEM</a> tells me that I can upgrade to win 10. So I did the upgrade, it still has the same problem. This time it doesn't show me the blue screen, but it still uses the same period of time to boot. <br/><br/>Has anyone come across similar problem or has seen it?<br/><br/>Many thanks</p></body></html> | |

I don't understand why the developers of this software think that they can control our devices better than we can.

| Answer» <html><body><p>My computer tells me to restart in <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/order-238912" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ORDER">ORDER</a> to update,so I restart and it <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/appears-881937" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about APPEARS">APPEARS</a> to be updating-it says "configuring windows updates (ascending number)% complete do not turn off your computer",and then when it finishes another message comes up " failure configuring windows updates,reverting changes do not turn off your computer".So I seem unable to get these updates. Does anyone know what's going wrong here? Many thanks in advance.LesGIn the Windows Update Manager it should show which update(s) exactly failed to install. Can you check there and share with us the KB numbers that are listed as failed. Also just a quick check, your system has plenty of free hard drive space and this Operating System is a licensed legal copy of it that your running and not a cracked OS?Thanks Dave, I have checked my update history and find that I've failed to install on these 15 KB numbers :- 2855336 2928678 3003663 2955163 2756872 2889784 2883201 28622768 2920189 2975331 2770917 2962407 2903938 2876415 3087985. I've cleared some file space,and tried again,but they still wouldn't update.Hi are you sure that these updates are for windows 8 or are they for <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/7-240263" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 7">7</a> only the only number I can find in my update history that matches yours is 3087985 and that is important and it is for internet explorer 11.<br/>For 8 and 8.1 they should be starting with 307<br/>that is probably why they did not go in if you have upgraded or reinstalled so they could be for windows 7 <br/>I did re-install a few weeks ago after a problem getting into my email account,so the updates might be the wrong ones for my system. How can I tell which system I'm on, Windows 7 or 8 ?I found I'm on windows 8,and went into the windows store to upgrade to windows 8.1. The upgrade failed,with the error code Ox 80240031This is what I found on the above code and what you have to do<br/><br/>How to Fix Windows 8.1 Error code: 0x80240031 while Updating Before you try to update to Windows 8.1 be sure that you have a stable and fast internet connection. The size of the update is 3.62GB! That’s almost downloading the full version of Windows 8.1. It is also suggested that you download or try to update during off peak hours on your area or country.<br/><br/>Method 1: Using the SFC /SCANNOW <br/><br/><a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/press-605361" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PRESS">PRESS</a> the Windows button + X on your keyboard, a mini dialogue box will appear <br/>2. Choose Command Prompt (Admin). You must run the command prompt in Administrator level <br/>3. On the command prompt type sfc /scannow and hit enter <br/>4. If everything went okay and no errors where found, restart your computer and try updating again <br/>5. If errors where found, try to fix it using DISM. <br/>6. On the same command prompt window type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth <br/>7. After the repair is complete, restart your computer and try updating now.<br/><br/>Note: I have done this process but another error came out while I was executing DISM. <br/><br/>Method 2: Try Automatic Repair <br/>1. Go to search or hit Windows button + Q <br/>2. From the search click “Settings” found on the right side and type Advanced Startup Options and hit enter <br/>3. This will open the PC Settings in General category. Scroll down and <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/look-544452" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LOOK">LOOK</a> for “Advanced Startup” and click Restart Now <br/>4. Click Troubleshoot and then click Advanced options, then finally hit Automatic Repair <br/><br/>Method 3: Do A Refresh <br/>1. The steps here are similar to the method 2 since they are found on the same menu/settings. <br/>Go to search or hit Windows button + Q<br/> 2. From the search click “Settings” found on the right side and type Advanced Startup Options and hit enter <br/>3. This will open the PC Settings in General category. Scroll down and look for “Refresh your PC without Affecting your Files” and click Get Started when you are ready. From there just follow the instructions. Be sure to back up your files. You might lose data on the process. <br/><br/>Note: I personally have not tried methods 2 and 3 because I haven’t made a backup of my system yet. But I’m going for method 4, and probably method 5 in the future. <br/><br/>Method 4: All Else Fails, Try and Try Again Okay, you have tried everything and still you can’t update to Windows 8.1 because of the Error code: 0x80240031. I also found out that other users were able to update to Windows 8.1 with patience and perseverance to hit the Try Again button or trying again on a later time. Some users claim that they were finally able to update to Windows 8.1 just by simple trying again and again and again. <br/>Method 5: Don’t Update Now and Just Get the Full Version Here If you are not in a hurry to update, or you are in a hurry and you don’t want to waste time, and you have some extra $100-$189, I suggest you just get the full version of the Windows 8.1 and do a fresh and clean install later.<br/> <br/>Both the Windows 8.1 and Windows 8.1 Pro are available now. Why am I suggesting that you get a full version instead? Well imagine this, what if you need to do a fresh installation of windows in the near future? After you have successfully installed Windows 8, you again need to update and download the whole Windows 8.1 again. <br/>Chances are you might encounter the same problem again. So to save you of the trouble and your time being wasted, just get the full version instead.</p></body></html> | |

Solve : Windows OS? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>Pleas don't answer unless you've tried both. Used both and I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/prefer-2213015" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PREFER">PREFER</a> 10 better. Might be because 8 was too much change all at once and soured my choice in its use, and Windows 10 is similar to 8, but better layout.<br/><br/>I had a laptop with 8, hated it. Tried 8.1 still hated it because games such as World of Warcraft had an issue with flight controls that wasn't resolved until I downgraded to Windows 7. I then recently pushed 8 back to this laptop and used the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/free-240724" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FREE">FREE</a> upgrade to 10 and Windows 8 still had flight control issues in World of Warcraft, but Windows 10 is like Windows 7 and flight controls are correct and I have to get use to 10 to be able to support it. I've experienced 8 and 8.1 to support it when I need to, but I avoid it still. I do like Windows 10, but not as bad as Windows 7. I also like XP, <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/although-7380138" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ALTHOUGH">ALTHOUGH</a> its days are numbered.I prefer 8.1. 10 removes too much customization. Though one can't say we weren't warned since Windows 8/8.1 removed quite a few themselves. main thing is that I would prefer not to have white titlebars but MS decided we don't get a choice. <br/><br/>I was able to hack the theme but that introduces a few annoying glitches. I've put Windows 10 on my two other, non-main computers but kept it off my main systems.<br/><br/>Arguably complaining about the theme and customization is a small nitpick, but when a new OS version gives you nothing that you want, there isn't much reason to upgrade- it being free doesn't cut it for me. I'm not trading an afternoon and who knows how much time sorting out upgrade issues with software afterwards when I'm not actually getting anything I want.<br/><br/>typo correction to my post above which stated:<br/><br/> Quote</p><blockquote>I've experienced 8 and 8.1 to support it when I need to, but I avoid it still.
