Guess I'll Keep it till I get a full Windows 10 key and can do a clean full install.

You can already do a clean install, as long as you upgraded first and the free activation was successful.

So, they kinda save the state of my upgrade and then allow me to clean install after that with my Win8 key?
I tried a full install at first but it wouldn't recognize my Win8.1 Pro N key as legit. So I did the upgrade...

Edit: I will probably Keep using the new browser. It's way faster than my Firefox :o

Yes, when you upgrade they add your PC to a whitelist on their servers (hardware based, I guess) and activate a generic license. When you do a clean install you just skip entering the key, and it will automatically activate when you go online.

Is there a point in doing a clean install instead of an upgrade? I thought that Windows upgrades are no longer bad.

Also, just finished the upgrade... seem to have some display/UI issues. Desktop icons are HUGE, taskbar + taskbar icons are TINY, everything in FF seems a bit blurred, some things, such as notification, appear under things rather than above them, etc. Sometimes it doesn't let me change resolution, either. Not sure what's up with that.

--edit: nevermind, a restart fixed most of the issues. Taskbar is still TINY. Will take a bit to get used to that.

Hey, no more terribad fullscreen apps :) Might actually start to use a few now.

Had a problem when I installed it and thought I should drop the solution here if someone got the same problems

Seems to work good so far

You can force it.
Or create an usb stick for installation like I did.

Okay, just ran into an issue. Everything was working fine at start, started playing some WoWs, then all of a sudden my physical memory usage went to 98%. This has persisted even after a restart. Nothing shows up in task manager to explain this. Also my system drive is at 100% :/

I keep the resource manager running in the background to track weird behaviour atm...

Nothing shows up in the graphs.

My disc also goes up to 100% not sure whats the cause but it has for a long time now, and its annoying as fuck. I was hoping w10 would fix that :C
