Windows 10 could be the last version of Windows

[peteyt]

windows 10 now available

However the actual update is being rolled out in stages, probably wise, as everyone updating at once would probably cause issues such as server crashes etc.

I am currently however testing a possible method for forcing the update. All I did for this was open command prompt and type in "wuauclt.exe /updatenow" (without "). I had windows update open at the same time which previously had found no updates but after using the command windows update stated to download the Windows 10 update.

It has downloaded and is currently preparing for installation - it apparently doesn't work for everyone - some people for example get to 100 percent download wise and get an error or something.

Is that for the final version? My installation with the other method sadly failed although it took some people a few times apparently

Should be the version you were trying to download but in ISO format instead. Plus you would get updates via Windows Update anyway.

Seems like your installation messed up somewhere. I used a lot of the preview builds and didn't have such issues.

If I download the ISO, can I use the same file on multiple pcs (all using legit windows?).

Currently overseas and will update the organisations computers if so. Cannot justify a 5gb download ten times though.

I assume so as long as you are doing upgrades and not clean installs. Mine isn't even activated at the moment but there was a post on reddit saying the activation servers was getting hammered. Hopefully it activate soon and I Haven't ****** up by going the quicker route of getting Windows 10.
