Facebook To Arrive On Windows 10 Platform

Microsoft announced a $26.2 billion acquisition of LinkedIn, bought Wand Labs for natural language tech, and released bug-bashing builds of Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile. Although it’s supposed to notify you of this, I’ve heard countless stories of users having no idea it was going to upgrade. You’d just want to let it finish.

There is an issue where certain apps won’t be able to set Start or Lock screen backgrounds.

The first con that has to be mentioned is the complete exclusion of the Start Menu from Windows. You can then pin it to the bottom taskbar of Windows for quicker access: right-click the Internet Explorer icon in the bottom taskbar and select Pin to Taskbar. The anniversary update is also said to enhance the functionality of Windows 10 for educators, with tools to apply a “faster, simpler” process for teachers seeking to deploy multiple devices in classroom settings. That isn’t the case this time around as you have to buy the Lumia 950 XL if you want its smaller sibling for free. Once installed, users can restore the correct location on their handsets, and the app will still function. All apps that came installed on your PC or apps that you manually installed will be removed. You will go through to Microsoft’s announcement post where you can learn more. However, a recent study done by TechRepublic has shown that under 20% of business owners would be willing to upgrade to the new version of Windows.

Agree to the warning message and your PC will restart. It is now already available to users using preview builds as part of Microsoft’s Windows 10 Insider Program. However, some see this as an intrusion to using their Windows PCs.

The new refresh tool is available for Windows Insiders, it fetches a copy of Windows online and performs a clean installation. You should be warned that this method will require you to find all the relevant drivers for your computer and this can sometimes be hard to source – so make sure you can find all the relevant drivers (such as audio, motherboard and chipset drivers) before proceeding.

That Lumia must be enrolled in the Windows Insider program, and running Windows 10 Mobile build 14360 or higher. It will work anywhere you see a contactless payment symbol.

If you’ve been running the same Windows install for a while, it might have become a little slow.
