Why do you feel the need to install Avira. Doesn't the default Windows Defender work well enough?
I think its more the fact that people bought a Windows 7 license and would like to continue to use it. I use my Windows 7 Professional license for Windows Media Center for my XBox 360 as a Media Extender still, and thats a piece of software that Microsoft has abandoned.

I use an AV because I don't update windows and I had a boot sector virus last year when I fell for the "common sense 2013 AV" meme
Parker Butler
You should not have to fight with the OS to get it to stop fucking you over, and on top of this, there's the telemetry that you didn't even mention.
You might as well have just used Windows 7. It has better performance on games anyways, IIRC.
John Kelly
It doesn't. W7 is dx11. Windows 10 has dx 11.1 and dx12, so much better performance in games.
Battlefield 4 was 15% faster iirc.
Camden Morgan
Why do you need an antivirus if you supposedly only use Windows for gaming?
Jose Green
Any computer connected to the internet is vulnerable. Even with an AV it's not 100% secure against a virus, but it helps.

Ever wondered why Edge and OneDrive are hardcoded and cannot be removed from Windows 10? Because they are always running in the background even if your browser is not open. They are sniffing your activity and sending data to M$ at all times.
Windows 10 EULA is that of a service, not a software product. Go figure.

Advertisers pay big money for market research data, meaning your purchase habits, your family, your location and even your social media.
You are really comfortable with someone taking advantage of your personal information and making a ton of money? If I am going to sell my personal data to advertisers, I expect compensation. We are not some tools for corporations.

Your compensation is getting better products that you actually want to use you retard. Without having data to analyze there's no way for them to know what to improve your wise. Looking at where users most often keep their mouse cursors, where people rest their palms while typing on a laptop, what level of force is most commonly applied before dropping a laptop, how fast is the mean impact, where is a device most commonly impacted, what's the most common crash, what buttons are least used in chrome/iOS/Android/windows and can we remove or hide them, whats the most common website format. Etc etc fucking etcetera. Root metrics define every electronic and every product you use. It isn't ingenuity that makes Google move the settings button into a menu instead of always being on your task bar. They counted how many times people actually used it and decided "oh no one ever clicks this shit" and hid it to give more screenspace. Like holy shit how do you think produ ts are designed. It isn't magic, they analyze data sent to them by users to determine the list desirable feature set. Because if given a survey people will often lie because they don't know what the fuck they want half the time. All this muhh freedom shit is the reason Linux is so crappy. They don't look at this user data and attempt to guess what features people want. >What are mother fucking root metrics

Noah Sanders
By actually working with large data sets at a fortune 50 company so you can understand what big data is even used for. You know. Like me. Companies want to make better products so they can sell more of them and make more money believe it or not. The data advertisers use is more often acquired from census data and extraloped or from purchases you make in stores. There's next to no reason for them to want biometric data from what you do in your computer or phone. It serves no purpose to them.

Why didn't you just download the iso and install? Takes thirty minutes maximum.

I didnt see an iso download, and its microshaft so I assumed that it had to be done in the most inconvenient way possible.
Owen Hernandez
>hp and windows are niggers just fucking get the image and use rufus to burn it onto a usb and boot into it you spastic child. And is this your first time installing windows or something? why the fuck didnt you port the binary installs for the drivers onto a seperate usb before you installed the fucking os. i might not be good with windows since i use linux most of the time, but it doesnt take a trained pilot to tell a plane driver that hes fucking retarded at his job if he crashes it into a building LOL
Elijah Diaz
Did you even check their website?
David Butler
>just fucking get the image and use rufus to burn it onto a usb and boot into it you spastic child. On the windows site, linked to me by msn, they only have this get windows 10.exe thing so I just went with it. And is this your first time installing windows or something? Done hundreds of windows installations. This is my first time trying to get 10 to work. I switched to linux before windows 8 came out. >why the fuck didnt you port the binary installs for the drivers onto a separate usb before you installed the fucking os. Because I dont want the fucking drivers? I dont know what you are freaking out about pajeet.. windows 10's installer is failing to resume after it suspects incompatibility with hp's bundled software like foxit pdf reader, pagelift, file sanitizer, hp botnet for companies, youcame.. things like that. after I installed 7 from the disc, I chose to put in the driver cd and only install lan to avoid any further incompatibilities, for example if windows 10 tries to bitch about synaptics drivers for my touchpad being incompatible.
yes, thats where I found the get windows 10.exe thats downloading this shit.

1. Get Media Creation Tool from M$ website 2. Download Windows 10 Pro ISO 3. Burn ISO to USB key 4. Use Windows 7 or 8 license key to clean install Windows 10
Takes a few hours to get ISO and only 20 mins to clean install. No that I expect the niggers at Sup Forums to know this.

DOS/Windows and related software are the easiest to use when compared with Linux. You have GUI and Google backing you up with any problem.
I don't understand, what is so difficult?
Connor Clark
on my linux desktop it give me the option to download the windows 10 iso directly on my windows laptop it makes me download the media creation tool. I downloaded the tool and open it, and the installer thats been at 99% for like two hours now immediately just to "ok were ready to do this shit".
Anyway thanks for showing me where to get the iso from, they are going out of their way to keep this thing form people.
Angel Collins
Nevermind, the installer just minimized, its still at 99%
Henry Martinez
And now you've gone full tard.
Andrew Edwards
>hardware maintenance WHat is Google >Install variety of OS heh. install wiz is not a big accomplishment kiddo >Operate Office before puberty laughed right here. Fresh off the boat from reddit kid? I don't think you know even one language.
Landon Russell
Windows 10 has some hidden issues.
The installer at 99% is building the ISO and verifying the data. Often times during install you will see it getting stuck but it is working.
Another issue is reset PC option, when you do full cleaning of drive and data, it stays stuck at 99% for about 5 hours where it is wiping your HDD to ensure no data is recoverable. To a user unfamiliar with this, they might panic thinking the installation is fucked.

No but back in the 90's it was a pretty good start for me since I was poor and only had a 486 with Windows 3.11. I am not claiming to be a wizard and I don't know programming because I went into economics.

>all microsoft EULA is that of a service, not a software product.
Retroactively. Doesn't matter what ms product you use or had/have a license for ... everything is retroactively the same as current Win10.

Mason Harris
I wasn't panicked, I'm just annoyed as hell. arch that is a year out of date and running on a 700 mhz arm processor can update faster and with less issues than windows 7 that is a clean install running on a brand new i5. I try to give up and go to windows 10 for a month just to finish this semester, and then I have this shit. Its like microsoft is broken at every turn.
All of this started because gwx or something broke dll dependencies of office and I wanted to reinstall instead of download botnet dlls to replace them.
Matthew Ward
wow. dos isnt even hard or easy.. there is just nothing to it. Its like trying to fix a car with a childs plastic screw driver.

windows devs use windows daily. they don't need customer data to know it blows lmfao. apple doesn't need such data to keep os x overall solid and easy to use, because after several years they've refined it, unlike microsoft with windows, which has ALWAYS been absolute trash
Thomas Cox
Yes.
Hudson Diaz
>to keep os x overall solid and easy to use, because after several years they've refined it, No, they threw osx in the trash in about 2009 and stole a copy of linux, hacked together a de to look like osx and called it a day. apple literally couldnt fix osx.

Windows 7 without telemtry updates is great. Windows 10 is garbage, heads up for those people using it, your system can and will break soon enough. I have tried W10 3 times on 3 different systems and all of them: >Broke after 2 months (Programs not loading up, HDD navigation errors) >Will have your Internet Speeds throttled by the OS phoning home (stayed at 70 ping and broke very often on W10, stays at 29 ping, no issues on same hardware)
