Preregister Window 10 Icon on the Taskbar
Has anyone else noticed that the Window 10 Preregister Icon disappeared
from the Taskbar? It was there last night, but it is not there this morning. I have not made any updates this morning so there must have been a timing loop in the program to deactivated it. |

Mine is still there on my 8.1 Pro desktop, and my download has completed as of this morning. The icon has lasted through my using the Media Creation Tool to download the .ISO's for 10 Pro and 10 Home. |

I have not made any updates this morning so there must have been a timing loop in the program to deactivated it. Mine's still there on my Win7HP, but gone on my Win8.1Pro. I have a new folder on my Win7HP PC that looks to be the upgrade setup and installation files, but it's not there on my Win8.1Pro. Maybe once the upgrade downloads itself on the Win8 machine, the icon will return, although the icon on the Win7 machine gives the same info as always. -- SC Tom |

I have not made any updates this morning so there must have been a timing loop in the program to deactivated it. I just rebooted and during the shutdown and reboot (both) there was a "getting windows ready" typical update prompt but no percentage progress. So it was so fast. And the icon is gone now. If you still want 10 I get the impression you can just download the ISO now and simply put it in the dvd drive and run setup.exe and let it upgrade from there. |

I have not made any updates this morning so there must have been a timing loop in the program to deactivated it. Mine is still there, but there's a different message now: "We're validating Windows 10 for your PC. We recommend that you upgrade after you get your notification that Windows 10 is ready for your specific PC. "While upgrades have started for most PCs, we're continuously working with our partners to ensure that even more PCs work well with Windows 10" Then there are two click boxes: "OK, notify me when ready" "More information" and if I click "more information", I get: "We're working with our partners to make sure that Windows 10 is ready for your particular PC. When you get your notification, it means that you can proceed with your upgrade" Talk about tautology! And does that suggest that there *might* just be some teething troubles that have only just come to light ..... ? Well, I think I have downloaded all the data necessary. I have four PCs and a laptop. Altogether last night I downloaded around 12 Gigabytes! And I found all the data in C:\$Windows.~BT on each computer. Mostly it was over 4GB but on one computer it was only 2.9GB David -- David Rance writing from Caversham, Reading, UK |

I updated my win7 laptop to windows 10 earlier today, and the whole process took about 1hr or so. So this evening I decided to update my windows 8.1 desktop, and after something like 5 hours I got a message saying windows 10 could not run on this machine, presumably because it complained that system folder could not be updated. Anyone else with windows 8.1 had this problem? |

It was there last night, but it is not there this morning. I have not made any updates this morning so there must have been a timing loop in the program to deactivated it. Or, it may be a "back door update"... -- Best regards, Neil |
