    It isn't just the space - I used the media creation tool to create the setup files on the external drive (could also be a usb stick) and ran it from there. It is a pain, but it did work.
    Yeah I use the MCT approach too. But the lack of space for Windows.old is normally the problem for mine.
    (It doesn't help that '32GB' is nothing of the sort on mine - even allowing for the difference between 1000 and 1024 it's still smaller than advertised.)

    You can keep your bouncy start menu tiles trying to sell you "Apps".

    I installed Win 10 recently to try out and it had these rotating squares adverting Candy Crush and Xbox. Both things I never used in my life.

    It's no different to any other OS, once you install it you can customise it to how you want.
    Silly not to like something you have control over. I doubt anyone has anything on their start menu that they never use.

    I used to hate W10 but Now I got used to it I find it's good.

    It's also worth noting there's far less troubleshooting problems with it than previous os's. The forum used to be inundated with problems before.
