Windows 10 Anniversary Update version 1607 upgrade
It was optional at release but now seems to be compulsory.
BUT reported that it does not install / is not offered
on Tablets with only 1GB RAM.
I see no sign of it on my Lynx 7"
I have installed it now.
Bit of nightmare with lengthy download and v. lengthy install time.
On my i7 4.5Ghz ,2200 Mhz 16GB DDR3 RAM
about 3 hours (plus more cause it crashed 1st attempt)
Installation on Microsoft Surface Pro 2 was much more straight forward
by just leaving it on all night.
I then found start-up was incredibly slow & shut down took like forever.
Cured this (hopefully) by repeatedly restarting in Safe Mode.
Interestingly the size of the Windows folder has reduced considerably
to 18.5 GB total but given as only 12.5 GB on disc (uses compression)
so that pleases me even if all the new features are of no interest.
Rumour has it that Cracked Pirate copies do not have there Cracking broken.
And 'Free' upgraded ones are also OK.
