Hey Guys...

Does windows 10 have ample security(antivirus/firewall) built in? Or should you still purchase a security suite? Thanks for any help/opinions in advance. :)

I am sure the firewall on Windows is a good. I keep hearing Windows Security Essentials is a great anti virus. But if you must purchase a security suite then by all means. I don't have Windows 10 but I hear good things and bad things. Some of the bad things are pertaining to driver issues.

^ I believe you just get a notification when it is available and you can choose when to install. I don't think it force installs.

Yes it does. Mine is downloaded. Up popped a window saying that it was going to install in 59 minutes. I rescheduled for 3 days later. It popped up again, I did the same, postponed 3 more days.

From the reviews I've seen of WSE, it's junk. It's almost at the bottom of the list.
 
Rolled back to my copy of Win 7 Home Premium. As mentioned, I found Win 10 rather meh. I've got Media Center functionality again, and given I often stream movies from my 'puter to my Xbox 360 Win 10 really has nothing to entice me to stay with it.

No doubt as MS drops support for Win 7 I'll hafta go with 10 but for the time being 7 meets all my needs quite satisfactorily thanks.
 
I reserved my copy weeks ago but I haven't been notified with the update yet. I'm not in a hurry though, I made the backup but then I read the news that Sony wasn't recommending to update because they do not own the company who makes the drivers anymore, or something along those lines.

As for drivers, might take a look at http://forums.windrivers.com/index.php? I haven't used it for a couple years. Did find drivers I needed for XP there.

Thank you B :) My Honey and I bought two new desk top computers with windows10.Each had
a free trial of Mcafee installed,that will expire soon.I was confused about microsoft security essentials vs windows defender,and a firewall.I guess once Mcafee is uninstalled,I can turn on windows defender,and a firewall.I still feel a bit apprehensive and skeptical until I see how it works.I do like the Mcafee setup right now.
 
Does anyone notice how fugly those 2 babies in WIndows 10 commercial- the smiling one and the one with nose wiping on window...
seriously some of ugliest babies I've ever seen..they have that "politician" "business-man" face in the future..prolly 2 of Microsoft CEO kids..
 
I love 7, and I was getting very interested in 10! Reading mostly good initial impressions of it and I was seriously considering upgrading. Then I hear that in the user agreement for 10, MS can disable pirated games, and maybe other software too. This has quite a few privacy questions. If this rumor is correct, then how does MS know what you have installed on your machine and what other information would it be able to access?

Decision for now, wait. Let 10 continue its initial roll out and see how that goes. Being on the bleeding edge has its drawbacks!
 
I am worrying that I haven't yet received my notification; that makes nearly 2 months I have been waiting.

I am wondering if this is normal.

I am currently using 8.1 and have had a systray notification for a while. It hasn't tried to do a forced install on me
 
Well, I installed it and it worked well, except for a little edge instability and failed updates.
Changed settings so updates could come in, and now the machine won't boot the OS. Some kind of boot error.
And it broke the recovery tools. Found a bunch of bugs while trying to fix it too.

Best to wait a few more weeks. Especially if you've only got one machine.

That's not the half of it.

Even when told not to, Windows 10 just can’t stop talking to Microsoft
Windows 10 uses the Internet a lot to support many of its features. The operating system also sports numerous knobs to twiddle that are supposed to disable most of these features and the potentially privacy-compromising connections that go with them.

Unfortunately for privacy advocates, these controls don't appear to be sufficient to completely prevent the operating system from going online and communicating with Microsoft's servers.

For example, even with Cortana and searching the Web from the Start menu disabled, opening Start and typing will send a request to www.bing.com to request a file called threshold.appcache which appears to contain some Cortana information, even though Cortana is disabled. The request for this file appears to contain a random machine ID that persists across reboots.

Well, I've been having issues since rolling back. First off my monitor wouldn't display an HDMI signal so I unplugged and replugged the cable back in and that fixed it.

Then my mouse stopped working. Unplugging and replugging the cable fixed that.

Then just a few minutes ago, my keyboard stopped working. Same deal with the cable.

For the mouse and keyboard, after plugging the cables back in, I received a message that Windows was installing drivers for each despite both initially working after the roll back.

There was also an issue with my audio capture device so I uninstalled the drivers for that, then reinstalled them and that seemed to fix that.

If I continue to have issues, I think I'll just do a clean install.

I have everything backed up on secondary HD so that's no an issue.

We'll see what the next day or two brings.

Just thought I'd mention the rollback issues in case anyone was interested.
 
^You're fortunate to have the time, patience, and know-how to deal with all of that.

Most people don't. They're easy to spot, of course, as they're the ones who will swear Windows 10 is wonderful. ;)
 
Blue screen error the other night. Computer shut itself off. Received a fatal error of Reference_By_Pointer. Took a while for the computer to reboot up. Edge crashes often. Updates aren't able to install. Yeah, Windows 10 is wonderful.......:)

Your upgrade to 10 probably had a corruption in the registry somewhere. ALL software update are prone to error because ALL data transfer over the internet are prone to data corruption.
