Not sure if it's because it's "Microsoft hardware" or what but so far the only glitch was it recognizing my Jpn keyboard as a US keyboard...before I updated the 10 install. The update apparently installs all the necessary drivers so one restart later and everything looks good. Noticeable performance (speed) increases here and there. My only real complaint is I prefer clean installs rather than upgrades.

I doubt it's a dual booting system because I don't know what that is anyways. I assume it allows 2 different configurations that I would have had to setup to run and since I can't I didn't. Or some such.

Thanks. That helps to take baby steps anyways. I will compare them in the 2 different user accounts and see what I can find. It's not that big a deal, but it bugs me that inadvertent keyboard shortcuts or the system fairies keep changing it from the 1 step straight Hiragana to Proper Roman to the 2 step Hirgana-Clunky Jpn Roman-Proper Roman without the Microsoft Paper Creep telling me so. And the Guest User account is still on Hiragana-Proper Roman. Anyhoo, I'll rummage around down there. Thanks again.

Facebook, Google, your ISP ... anytime you do anything in the Internet you are being spied on in one way or another. How do you think those "services" make a profit? Your choices are to either unplug or get used to it. Windows 10 is no worse, an you can turn off most of the telemetry quite easily. There are reports that it is still phoning home even after you tell it not to, but a lot of that is likely to be paranoia.
IMHO it is a very well sorted OS. I will happily eat my words if it really does turn out to be an evil plot, but I doubt it.

I recall some of your posts in the past that actually suggest that you, Mr. Coligny, would be perfectly fine with that.
The person at Microsoft who checks out the pics, on the other hand, should be pitied.
But then again, that's what he/she gets those stock options for...
Salty wrote:Well if it is still phoning home and reporting on keystrokes even when told not to, that would not be paranoia - that would indeed be spying. But I do get your overall point - we get spied on all of the time. I`ll still be waiting until the very last...

Microsoft is thinking about security, not spying.

Please... Tell me you are joking... "We need to be able to see your dick pics if you want us to keep you safe from pretend laws in countries you are not"
It's the same level of stupid as stating "well, they certainly not be listenning on you since you are not intredasting" to minimize NSA wiretaping scandals...
Backdoors and constant reporting have no link to security.

Microsoft can't write a line of code without half a dozen bugs init. Any administrative access or reporting built in windows is just a security flaw waiting to be exploited...
Their automatic updates installation is also frightenningly stupid.

Please rest assured the sheer volume of data is your best defense.
