I have Win 10 and have had no problems, However, I get a email almost daily from How To Geek and it has lots of things to use and download- one a few days ago it said in a Windows 10 Update in July, if I read it correctly Microsoft is going to Charge for Updates to the OS. Has anyone heard of this change that Microsoft may be doing. Anyone who knows I sure could use the info. I deleted that one after reading.Thanks to all who may reply.

I never heard of this "How to Geek" I NEVER open any e-mail I never heard of. I have win 10. I am NOT charged for updates. Sounds like a scam.

The link is to your Gmail account...

And the How To Geek article said: "Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 10’s free upgrade offer will expire on July 29, 2016. After that, you’ll have to pay $119 to upgrade on any computer that hasn’t already made the leap. But with a few simple steps, you can “reserve” that free copy now, so you can upgrade after July 29 without paying."

Thanks to all! I do have win 10 Home and the ISO file I downloaded so I won't have to worry about that at any later date. I could not find the Article I read before. I may have misunderstood what it said, referring to updates to 10 after July. Will have to wait and see what happens. Thanks to All But I did find How To Geek here: http://www.howtogeek.com/t/windows/page/6/ check it out it might have something you may need help on at a later date. :)
