How are you handling the "calling home to Microsoft" features? I 
installed it on my laptop before my desktop and stupidly did the express 
install rather than custom, so everything was turned on, syncing, 
Cortana, etc., etc.,. Most of the stuff is turned off.

When I first attempted to install Win10 Pro, Windows informed me that it 
couldn't tell if my laptop was ready for the install. So, I went to the 
Toshiba forum and looked on the list of those models that were 
compatible and mine wasn't on it. However, one of the moderators said 
that doesn't mean it won't work with some tweaking. Other users were 
successful, so I continued attempting to get it work and I did. I 
removed just about everything from the laptop and the OS installed w/o a 
problem. It runs flawlessly. As soon as I removed all my security 
software, the thing started to install.

I have only had a chance to install Might & Magic X and KOA and they 
both seem to work fine.
