Laughted my soul out :D
Poor guy
I upgraded from a W8 fresh install, and I can't shutdown the computer, it simply doesn't work. In order to don't lose data I have to close my user session and restart the system, and when BIOS screen appears I have to push the power button until it halts.
And also, updates doesn't work either. I have an update that tries to be installed whenever I boot using w10 (which I tend to be never), and after some minutes it yields that it was impossible to fulfill the update, it rollbacks everything and boots "normally".
Besides of this I really think W10 is a very good OS. Every time I must use it, I realize how much I like linux, and I appreciate it's strengths even more.
That's as far as I went though, I didn't bother to explore the OS as I already felt a sense of repulsion knowing all the internet shit and how Microsoft is trying to improve "my experience". Next thing I did was wipe the OS (and the recovery partition) and happily installed Linux.
Every time people ask me to upgrade their Win7 system to Win10 my expression is like "facepalm".
Meanwhile, I opened a terminal, "sudo dnf upgrade", and it finished updating by the time this guy was done screaming. Loving my OS.
privacy policy. I also think Windows is too overpriced.

Bought a new laptop and it came preinstalled, unforunately there was some conflict between AMD drivers and Windows pulling in drivers for the AMD card.
Kept geting black screen and popup about amd had recovered bla bla bla.
So i grabbed a fresh official iso and made a clean install, never been happier :)
But needed some tinkering
