Default Impressions of Win 10 TP so far

My own impression of Win 10 TP is that it is not sufficiently
different
from 8.1 to merit skipping a version number and going to 10.

Bringing back the Start Menu to the desktop is a welcome change.
Turning
off the hot corner for the Charms Bar is a debatable point.
Adding additional desktops could be useful.
Overall I don't see these changes as sufficient to shake off the bad
press that win 8 received.

Personally I didn't have a problem with 8.1 - in fact I rather like
it :-)

What do others think of Microsoft's new offering?

Too early to tell. W10TP release is still in the embryonic stage.
- relative to Win8.1 - version 10TP is 8.1 with some eye candy

I had one thing to say relatively to size in disk. I installed TP build
9841 and Windows Live Mail then updated to build 9860, now I have more
then 27 GB of used space. If I had a 32 GB tablet, I would be
compromised.

IIRC You can purge windows updates. Run disk cleanup as admin and
there is an option there.


I trie to run disk cleanup as administrator but didn't find the
shortcut, so I searched and ran disk cleanup from search bar one time
then did clean system files. I supose it's the same as running as admin.
I had 23 GB used space, after disk cleanup I have more 4 GB. Maybe I
need to reboot or run disk cleanup again.

I just looked and my install is only 17G. I don't have Live mail but
that can't add 10G.


Single program Windows Live Mail does not add 10GB.
