THE WINDOWS 10 TECH-PREVIEW PROCESS October 14, 2014. - The Windows 10 Technical Preview was released on October 1 that can be downloaded as an ISO file and installed as a dual-boot system or on a virtual machine installed in an existing installation of Windows 7 or 8.1. It is also possible to upgrade an existing installation of Windows 78.x, but this is not advisable on a computer that the user relies on. Users can preview the new version of Windows and provide Microsoft with feedback. Its not advisable to install Win10 Preview on a computer that you rely on because it is still in an early phase of its development and can therefore cause problems, which may be serious. I am not going to test it myself. I always wait for the official release of a new version. I got the first release of Windows 8 Pro for £24. Perhaps the new version will be that cheap. There are rumours that it might be a free release to the owners of computers running Windows 8. New versions of Windows are never a significant departure from the previous version, so I never have much trouble adapting to a new version quickly. Windows 8 wasnt that much different from Windows 7 apart from the tiled Startup screen and the lack of a Start button, which makes a return in Win10 - one half showing the Desktop menu and the other half showing the tiled menu. If you have any kind of feedback such as a suggestion, problem or solution click Start followed by the Windows Feedback tile. Here is a good article on the Technical Preview release: windowssecrets/top-story/why-you-should-join-win10s-tech-preview-process/ The image below shows the new divided Start menu.
