Nope. Just given up and shut it down.

It was still downloading this morning. :mad:

Not sure, but I think it must have been pretty slow, because, I'm trying again, and it seems to be going a lot faster.

Incidentally, according to a screen message (which oddly wasn't showing last night), the Windows 10 download is 2,862.6MB

In hindsight, I should've taken my laptop with me, when I last went on holiday.

The hotel had 65Mbps Wifi.

Download completed. :j

Now at the "Configuring update for windows 10. Do not turn off your computer" stage.

Installation complete and, from a cursory examination, I can't see a whole lot different, compared to 8.1 :huh:

I did get a bit worried when I couldn't find Office 2013 :shocked: , but, on reinstalling Classic Shell, I found it.

go to the box at the bottom right (all settings) and then "system" , and turn a lot of things off

Should have gone to Specsavers!

OK, I've opened "All Settings", and I have nine icons, five on the top row, and four on the second.

Starting from the top row, going from left to right, they are as follows:-

System - Devices - Network & Internet - Personalisation - Accounts

Time & Language - Ease of Access - Privacy - Update & Security

What should I be turning off, and how?
