Forums - PC Discussion - Are you upgrading to Windows 10?

On my Windows 8 machines yes, on my Windows 7 machines no. Mostly because of the age of my Windows 7 machines, though also partly because my view of Windows 7 is that it ain't broke so why fix it.

I'm doing Preview for Windows 10 and it's definitely solid as hell. Love it and definitely upgrading. Also, whoever said it deletes all your stuff, that's a lie.

I hope you are right. I'm pretty tech saavy but I've had bad experiences in the past by losing data, so when I've heard that it was required to backup, I kinda stepped back. I am excited for Windows 10, but I'll wait a week or two to see how things go.

They asked people in the early stages of Preview to backup their files because it did use to delete your files. As it has gone through it's evolution that stopped happening. I have two PCs and I kept Windows 8 on my touch laptop until it was stable enough. All the recent upgrades have not deleted files and when I upgraded my second PC to the Preview version of Windows 10 it kept all the files intact. As many have said, this version runs way better. I'm sure there will be plenty of apps and software that will need updates to run with Windows 10 smoothly but as it stands right now, Windows 10 is looking to really be the best Windows OS ever. Feel free to wait a little before upgrade, just remember that you have 1 year for the free upgrade. 



You betcha! Cant wait to finally get of windows 7.



I mostly play RTS and Moba style games now adays as well as ALOT of benchmarking. I do play other games however such as the witcher 3 and Crysis 3, and recently Ashes of the Singularity. I love gaming on the cutting edge and refuse to accept any compromises. Proud member of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race. Long Live SHIO!!!! 

I just here waiting for Windows 9



Absolutely! I am currently using Windows 8.1, and I do love it, but Windows 10 is looking to blow it out of the water! And it's free! Not to mention that it virtually guarantees that my computer will be supported far longer than the harder will last.

I'm even having a launch party at my house on the 29th!

yes, simply because i'm tired of the windows 7 boot up time...



Of course I will. It's free and it looks appealing to me.



Yep. Assuming my Pentium can handle it. LOL I kid

I'm answering this thread from the latest edge browser in Windows 10! So yes, I'm upgrading. All of my PCs will be running Windows 10. After July 29th.



Absolutely and I can't wait to upgrade my phone and X1 in the coming months as well :).
