    Fuck this, going back to 8.1 I think, its forced a driver update on me that I didnt want and now neither wifi or bluetooth work reliably. Connects, about a minute later disconnects automatically...

    You cannot​ be serious.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Explorer crashed, again, only fix is restarting. I said fuck this, am now using PowerShell as my primary interface.

    I want my Win7 back, but I'm too lazy to roll back and I know I'll need 10 eventually.

    I had a huge explorer crash issue in 8.1, now fixed in 10. My suspicions lie with old installs, since 10 was a new one but 8.1 was an upgrade.

    I did upgrade from 7. Not reinstalling though, doesn't happen that often.

    And PowerShell is good enough anyway. Not much slower to use than a GUI really, since I'm only using it to launch programs and open files. Restarting takes 2long.

    PowerShell is fun. I should work with Windows that way for a little while. Reminds me of the Linux terminal.

    I don't seem to have that problem... With 5 year old hard drives... lel

    It is fun, and it's actually really good. Not bash good, but still way better than the old Windows command line.
    And for many things CLI is just better than a GUI if you know how to use it.

    It doesn't take long, but 30-45 seconds of staring at a blank screen is too long for me :p

    Issue on your end I think blue, reboot takes about 10-15 seconds.

    Anyone else got slower boot time now? I did fresh install on my laptop and worked fine, but I just updated my desktop to win 10 and kept everything else, could that be the issue?

    Probably could use a good defrag. I still haven't done it, and have noticed significantly slower user login times.

    Apparently it does, but it seems to do an appalling job of it. To the point where there is almost no point to it doing it. Its part of the reason why the hard drive can be going at 100% when the computer is idling, but it seems to do very little to help things.

    My drives have consistently stayed at 0% fragmentation. Nor does my HDD fire up while idle...

    Well unless its doing it while you are using your computer i have no idea how its doing that. Perhaps Win7 does it differently?

    I'm in the process of ordering parts for building a PC. How can I get Windows 10 without paying $120? That seems so high. Have any of you guys paid for it?
