mcbpete Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Yeah, I'd burn your computer just to be safe. Then bleach the room it was kept in. Then call in a vicar to exorcise the building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blir Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Aaaand the removed feature list for people who don't like clicking links: Feature deprecation section If you have Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Ultimate, Windows 8 Pro with Media Center, or Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center and you install Windows 10, Windows Media Center will be removed. Watching DVDs requires separate playback software Windows 7 desktop gadgets will be removed as part of installing Windows 10. Windows 10 Home users will have updates from Windows Update automatically available. Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Enterprise users will have the ability to defer updates. Solitaire, Minesweeper, and Hearts Games that come pre-installed on Windows 7 will be removed as part of installing the Windows 10 upgrade. Microsoft has released our version of Solitaire and Minesweeper called the “Microsoft Solitaire Collection” and “Microsoft Minesweeper.” If you have a USB floppy drive, you will need to download the latest driver from Windows Update or from the manufacturer’s website. If you have Windows Live Essentials installed on your system, the OneDrive application is removed and replaced with the inbox version of OneDrive. None of those removals are a bad thing at all. Media Center wasn't popular because it's gash. Media player is shit for DVD playback. Desktop gadgets are rubbish. I could go on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubin Farr Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 Media Center is still used by people attaching TV tuners, and Xbox 360 can be used as an extender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JS20 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 For anyone having problems with the Win10 upgrade notification patch coming back after you've uninstalled it. From an admin command prompt, add this registry key/value: reg add "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Gwx" /v DisableGwx /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f GWX = Get Windows 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
