Windows 10

 

  You may have noticed that down in the taskbar near the time is a little white 4 square Microsoft symbol. This is the symbol allowing you to reserve your free upgrade to windows 10. The windows 10 Upgrade is supposed to be made available  July 29th 2015. This will be a full version and not a trial version. Just be aware that if you upgrade to windows 10 you can not go back. The best course of action is to perform a back up of your entire system to an external hard drive using the back up in windows 7. In windows 8 and 8.1 you have to perform the image back up manually and you can also perform a file history. The other option is backing up your entire system to the cloud using something such as carbonite. Just make sure you have a full system image package and not just the data.

                      


                      

If you do not see the windows 10 icon upgrade here is a website on how to get it http://superuser.com/questions/922441/why-don-t-i-have-the-get-windows-10-icon . I did this on one of my computers and it worked. 

Once again if you are thinking of going to windows 10 just back up your windows 7, 8 or 8.1 systems first.
