yay Microsoft marketing!)ĭrivers needs to be FULLY updated. If you use Microsoft Security Essentials, then there is no point in having it, remove it, Windows 10 has it built-in under the Windows Defender brand (which is not to be confused with the old Windows Defender which is totally different.

I would just remove it and install it back after you upgraded to Windows 10. Non updated anti-virus and other security software versions break or prevent the installation of an upgrade.

Its best to not use them, beside they are 0 advantages of using them, even if you have a potato computer. but usually problem shows during big updates. Many people think that their system works great for months after using a registry cleaner. This usually is the results of using some poorly coded tweak tools that craps on the registry, or modifies system files to do what it needs to achieve, or virus and malware even if they were removed (remember that A/V solutions only removes infections, it doesn't fix modified system files, and registry changes), or a registry cleaner was used.

Windows upgrades and service pack upgrade (or new version of Windows 10 builds) usually fails because the system was not in tip top shape. I look forward to all of your responses and thank you for reading. is it worth the trouble with all of the security concerns? if i go through with the upgrade will Microsoft kill my install because i log in with my Microsoft account on 2 machines? (desktop and my laptop that already has windows 10 on it)Ĥ. if i can upgrade with my current install will it cost me anything? such as buying another key just for windows 10?ģ. with my current activated windows install can i upgrade to windows 10 pro?Ģ. all this boils down to a few questions.ġ. my key is legit and is activated on my current windows 7 install.

so now at least a year and a half after my last windows 10 experiment i am yet again considering the upgrade. all i know is i never got past the log in screen after hours of waiting.

i have tried to upgrade twice before and my windows 10 installs corrupted or something within 2 weeks. It does everything i need and rarely gives me trouble. I have been a long time user of windows 7 and i love it.
