Buying Windows 10 is a onetime purchase process and you will get the unlimited updates / upgrades. On the next step, it will ask for an upgrade or for a custom install.
- After it restarts, Microsoft says you should wait ten to twelve minutes to allow the process to finish.
- Windows Security is integrated into Windows, so you shouldn’t need to install it (and you won’t find it in the store).
- Click on Virus & threat protectionon the left action bar.
- Microsoft Update is really just Windows Update checking the update status of more software, so it comes through the same interface you’re used to seeing.
- I don’t worry about viruses because I’m pretty aware of what I want to install and what I should not install, so any antivirus will not be necessary on any computer I use.
I can’t help, but by way of confirmation, I typically get a 12 hour forecast for downloading a SD movie on a PC. @Karl-WE, I’ll check when I get the new version and report back. Unfortunately it’s hard for some people to reproduce due to different configurations & locations. I’m in EU West – London and I was able to download Kiwix.WikiMed successfully in less than 5 minutes with 130 Mbps regardless if the manifest has SignatureSha256 or not. If it does work then that’s great but just an FYI that winget-create and YamlCreate.ps1 will automatically add this back. Use `wininet` as the downloader; it is slower than DO because it is a very basic implementation, but since it isn’t trying to be smart it isn’t as affected by externalities.

Microsoft offered Windows 7 users a free in-place upgrade to Windows 10 during the year after its launch, and it would have been sensible to take it. Since then, you have been able to download a copy of Windows 10 and use Microsoft’s media creation tool to upgrade Windows 7 either directly or from a thumb-drive. So far, most users who have tried this and entered their Windows 7 product key have had their copy of Windows 10 authenticated. I can’t say whether that will continue to work. However, Microsoft wants people off Windows 7 and on to Windows 10, so it’s worth a go.
