W10 Preview IMO is plain bullsh*t. Wasted 3 hours installing and Trying it out for 15 mins And going back to Windows 7 SP1

For me there just isn't any replacement for Windows 7 SP1 yet :)

Installed 10056 last night.
Good stuff overall. Boot time seems to have improved some bits.

My experience with Win 10 was a positive one. As a gamer that has used 7 and 8/8.1, I can say that this is a step in the right direction.

Do I need to Sign-in to Windows 10 with the account I used for Windows Insider or the local account can get new build updates?

You dont have to sign in to windows 10 to get updates, if I am not mistaken. But you do need an account if you want to run Cortana, save passwords, browsing sessions and stuff.

In my experience,Local accounts can get the updates just fine.

Thanks for the info, it took several restarts for updates to start working.

I have few problem I'm facing after installing fresh Win10 Build 10046, which are:

1. Taskbar settings & size keeps resetting on every restart.
2. After resuming from hibernation, windows automatically moves to 2ndary screen such as HDTV.
3. Spartan Browser worked 1 time only & after that it opens for 1sec then self disappears.

Other than that I'm still exploring haha

[MENTION=40068]Aciel[/MENTION]! From build 10041 to 10061, they are highly unstable. Especially the start menu which keeps crashing out of nowhere.

I am waiting for the technical preview. Home PCs are still running b9926 though.

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Gradually transitioning from console gaming to PC as the games are not worth it. 6 hours of Hellblade 2 is just not worth the $50 price tag.
    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
