Seriously, how bloody fucked can Windows 10 get? How could anyone see this as "progress" ?!?
First, upon getting my desktop, it keeps prompting me to create a "real Windows account" so i can use the "full features". I finally figured out how to get it to stop prompting me, and never ever used the Windows Store.
Then now finally, i decided i wanted to check out what was in the Windows Store. Soon it requires me to log in with a "real" account instead of the "local" one i've been using, and i just give in eventually. After trying a few worthless apps and games (Sonic Dash keeps on freezing or just randomly closing itself after about a minute of playing with no explanation whatsoever, others are more or less the same) i just say fuck it, this shit obviously doesn't work well enough to be good enough for anything yet.
Next time i bootup, i'm prompted with the login of my MSN account instead of the regular login. I hate seeing it there, so i try to change it back and get as far as this screen, which just freezes showing the spinning circles forever, i can't even switch back to the desktop because it's greyed out. Choosing "Sign-in Options" also freezes it, it's been this way even since i made the original "local" account.
Just how the hell do they expect people to use this shit?

Also, i have to block all Windows updates as well, they cause the spinning circle to show forever at startup if i don't remove them.

No, nobody likes Windows 10 Yes, everyone knows it sucks Yes, MS is aggressively pushing Windows 10 Yes, MS is paying people to astroturf forums Yes, these astroturfers are vehemently defending things like taking away your ability to disable things
Any other questions?

>>Just how the hell do they expect people to use this shit? Lock-in and inertia. They know that most people either have to use windows to run other applications that they depend on, or they use whatever OS their computer comes with and don't know that you can install other operating systems.

>How could anyone see this as "progress" ? Really easy. Everybody was shitting at flat design, but when the first Linux distro came with it, it was the best thing in the universe, it was the year of Linux desktop and all that shit. When the first Linux distro with something similar shows up, it will be considered standard and something great by Sup Forums.

You're not required to switch your account to use the store.
Chase Hernandez
But you are required to use your brain which is impossible for these shitposters.

You are full of shit and have no clue what you are talking about. Which distro "came out with flat design" smartass? Most try to copy osx aesthetics if anything (pantheon, xubuntu greybird theme). This isn't even specific to distros in first place, rather default presets for DE. People often rice with flat themes (numix, arc, paper) but that has nothing to do with linux itself, it's just ricers being ricers. tl;dr go back to where you belong.

W7 feels better and better every day.
Kevin Foster
You fucked up. Clean install and never, ever add a MS account. It is fucking cancer.
Jayden Ross
W8.1 is also pretty comfy right now. But Xubuntu is the comfiest.
Bentley Bennett
You misread the post, user. He's saying that once a distros COMES OUT with flat design and fuck all it will be the year of the Linux desktop and it will be considered standard.
Kayden Rodriguez
Hes saying that we hate on windows 10 on Sup Forums because its cool to do and if linux did the same thing it would be considered great rather than there being legitimate reasons to dislike windows.
Henry Williams
Windows 10 shows the intentions of MS. It's time for a new OS.

They changed that since 8/8.1?
Because I could browse Store just fine with local account on that and install 8.1 upgrade just fine with local as well. Maybe it is limited to certain applications?
Also, why not just creating separate MS account and have both local and MS one on same machine? I have that on laptop, was never really using the MS one, save for Skype few times (in before "lol Skype spies on you" - my family wont use anything else).

It hangs up when he tries to switch account... it happened to me too, then it suddenly worked again.
