The Windows 10 combines the best bits of old and new Windows features into a cohesive package, while correcting nearly all of the missteps of Windows 8. Windows 10 is much more usable than Windows 8 or 8.1 and proudly offers a bundle of new features, including improved security, a new browser, and the voice-activated intelligent assistant Cortana.
Compared to Windows 8, Windows 10 primarily tidies up the touch-screen features, making them less obtrusive than on Windows 8. It also introduces a host of other little tweaks plus new apps, such as the Edge web browser and Xbox gaming hub. Anyone with Windows 8 can get Windows 10 for free if they upgrade in the first year since release (until July 29 2016).
The upgrade process is mostly painless. There are few things you want to keep in mind. As such today, we're going to go through the basics to try to minimize any friction that may appear upgrading to Windows 10 from Windows 8.
