Two weeks of Windows 10: Just how is Microsoft doing?

What to do when Windows 10 messes up & it will

Call Tech support at 800-642-7676. The call back wait time was 6.5 hours when I called. It will get longer. Also, it is fairly easy to go back to Windows 8.1 or 7 if that was on your computer before the upgrade. Go to Settings. Go to Updates & Security. Go to Recovery. Select Go back to Windows 8.1. In about 20 minutes you will be back to your old Windows. I upgraded to Windows 10 and lost the sound and the screen on videos started freezing up. When I called tech support they told me how to recover Windows 8.1. It is one of the really few smart things they have done at Microsoft.It is typical of Microsoft to release a product that is half finished and to fix it along the way to the frustration of its customers.I really think that the products they put out are for software engineers and not the average computer user. You need to think like a programmer to use a lot of their software. Let the CEO of Micorsoft know how you feel. satyan@microsoft.com.
