And here come the critics and semi-know-it-alls....

This always happens, with every new Windows release; the vultures circle and the know-it-alls babble on.....


People who aren't as familiar with their subject as they ought to be but still feel called upon to comment really shouldn't..... and I have examples:-



Don't tell me it has "a ton of bugs". Be specific! Make a list, or shut the hell up!


Again, be specific! What bugs? Don't be part of the problem, be part of the cure. And nothing has been more of a problem for me than Vista was on its release.


This is where he fails the "homework test" right here. As you see below, I'm using the free version of Bitdefender Antivirus in Build 10240. And if you haven't tried it, you really should. It works quietly in the background and kicks ass!



And there's more - this guy just loves exhibiting his ignorance of Windows 10...



Again, here's another screenshot for you. Do you see anything wrong with the System Restore? I don't....



I could go on, but you get the idea, I'm sure. And while we're on the subject of "disc images" please see my previous article on here about "DISM.exe" which is short for Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool. It can restore a defective disc image in less time than it takes to reinstall from a hard copy.

And don't believe everything you read from those "experts". An "expert" is anyone more than ten miles from home. And do try Windows 10. I think you'll like it in spite of those so-called experts.

  1. The reviewer said "if it's true that system restore is disabled by default."

    He does have a point "if" it is in fact disabled. Ray, is it disabled by default?

  2. Hi, Tom -

    No, it's alive and well, and all you need to do is make sure
    that you've configured it to be turned on for each operating system
    on your drive. It's also a good idea to set a new Restore Point
    while you're in there.
    As far as I can tell, it works just like it has previously.
