The Windows 10 upgrade on my HP went mostly ok, but after a while it became apparent all was NOT ok.
It is oh so slow. It froze a lot requiring a hard reboot. I do mean a LOT!
Finally, I decided to do a Reset, which means I will need to reinstall programs.
It is now resetting, hopefully this will work.
It took awhile, but I finally got the logon screen. Then all I was getting was 'Welcome' and that ever going circle.
Finally after about 10 minutes the Welcome left and now there was a black screen with a cursor that moves with the mouse, but nothing else.
Eventually Windows loaded, just about the time I thought it was hosed.
It still seemed slow, but it wasn't freezing any more. Files were all intact, and there was an html file on my desktop, containing a list of all the programs that had been removed. The majority of the listings had a hyperlink to the page for the removed program, making it easier to download the program if I wished. (That was cool!)
After downloading and installing the last big update for Windows, this computer sings!
I installed my must have programs and made a backup using Macrium Reflect. It only took 11.34 minutes!
A clean computer is a joy!
