Won't work. The start menu is also gone. The task bar icons are unresponsive, like they aren't even there. Anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix for this? I push the restart button on the computer and the system reboots. Then everything is OK. I know ARFcom computer gurus have the answer! |

Quoted: Win 7 Quoted: Quoted: Is this an update from Win7 or from Win8.1? Win 7 So far I've seen little to no problems with updating from 8.1 (but I've only seen 25 or 30 machines updated so far), but numerous problems with updates from 7. Right now I don't have too many answers beyond refreshing Windows, or rolling back to 7, doing a thorough cleanup and then trying the update again. Or of course, the clean install, which is always the best plan. Honestly, you'd have been better off waiting until the IT world had a better grasp on the problems that would occur and had some solutions ready. |

Quoted: yes it does. classic shell. the windows UI de-fuckifier since windows 8! Quoted: Quoted: Classic Shell works in 10. yes it does. classic shell. the windows UI de-fuckifier since windows 8! Win 8/8.1 was fine. Faster than Win 7 in operations and navigating. 8.1 is a bit better than 8. Classic shell is for those who still want XP |

A lot of people like the Win 7 start menu look. Doesn't hurt anything and choices/variety is good. |
