Editor to share with you how to solve the problems that may be encountered when upgrading Windows 10, I believe most people do not know much about it, so share this article for your reference. I hope you will learn a lot after reading this article. Let's learn about it together.

1. Not all Windows users can upgrade

System updates will be rolled out step by step. As a result, not everyone can upgrade on July 29. The first to receive the upgrade will be those involved in the Windows Insider program, followed by those who run the following versions of the system: Windows RT 8.1, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 R2 (2919355) installed in Windows 8.1, or Windows 7 SP1.

two。 System requirement

If users do not want to encounter any problems during the upgrade, make sure that the device meets the configuration requirements published by Microsoft.

1. CPU with clock frequency of 1GHz or above

2. 1GB memory (32 bits) or 2GB memory (64 bits)

3. 16GB hard disk space

4. Support for DirectX 9 display cards and WDDM drivers

5. Microsoft account and Internet connection.

3. The activation process encountered difficulties

In the technical preview, some users have encountered activation problems after the upgrade. On July 3, Microsoft said it was "testing the activation process" and "hopes that the problem will be resolved soon." The defect should have been properly addressed before it was officially launched.

4. Force to receive update files and install

Instead of giving users any choice in system updates, Windows 10 forces users to receive and install updated files, which may improve system security to some extent, but users'PC or mobile devices also open the door to any files from Microsoft, including some potentially unpopular files.

5. System crash caused by forced installation of updates

Another problem with forced installation of updates is that the system may crash as a result. Rebooting may solve the problem. Of course, users can uninstall some of the updates that cause problems.

6. Software conflicts caused by forced updates

Mandatory updates are by far the most controversial aspect of Windows 10. These updates from Microsoft may conflict with some update management software from a third party, which can be terminated while Microsoft updates cannot. This will undoubtedly have an impact on the software of some companies.

7. Wi-Fi password sharing

Windows 10 introduces a feature called "Wi-Fi Sense", which originally appeared on Windows Phone 8.1. This feature allows users to share Wi-Fi network access with their contacts on Facebook, Skype, and Outlook. Now, this feature can automatically share the user's password with any contact, including some unpopular people. Users can click Wi-Fi > Network Settings > Manage Wi-Fi Settings (manage Wi-Fi Settings), and then clear all check boxes to disable this feature.

8. The printer cannot respond.

If your printer does not respond after the update, please reinstall the printer driver. To ensure that the printer can still run after the upgrade, the user may need to update the driver to the * version before the system upgrade.

9. Adapt to new browsers

In Windows 10, Microsoft launched a new browser, Microsoft Edge. The browser includes a button called "home" that users can add to or remove from the toolbar. Click this button and the browser will open the website selected by the user.

10. Find favorites

Edge browsers do not automatically load favorites data from IE. Users need to synchronize through the "Import favorites" function.

11. Email doesn't work?

Windows Mail in Windows 8.1 is popular with users, where they can create folders and subfolders. However, it has been found that applications in Windows 10 do not support these features. Users with this problem can switch to Thunderbird, which can be run in Windows 10.

twelve。 A weird Chrome browser

Chrome browsers behave strangely in Windows 10, maybe it's a deliberate effort by Microsoft to attract users to Edge? Users will find that Chrome browsers have a lot of problems when using YouTube services. If you must use Chrome, try to reduce the number of plug-ins open.

13. Users may need to reinstall Chrome

Some users find that Chrome crashes and rebooting won't solve the problem. The only solution is to uninstall and then reinstall.

14. Endless pop-up windows

Microsoft's Edge browser seems to like pop-up ads very much. Users need to turn on "Internet Options" (Internet option) and check "Turn On Pop-Up Blocker" in the "Privacy" column under the "Settings" tab to prevent pop-up windows from appearing. At the same time, users can also check "Disable Toolbars and extensions when InPrivate browsing starts." in the "InPrivate" column (disable toolbars and plug-ins when entering private browsing mode).

15. Music cannot be streamed when Edge is minimized

Edge is a general-purpose application, so no instructions can be executed when it is minimized. If it is minimized when it is streaming music, it will undoubtedly cause trouble for users. There is no solution to this, and if the user needs to use the device to perform other functions, he or she needs to find another streaming source.

16. Conflict between Edge browser and AMD graphics card

If the user's device is equipped with a graphics card from AMD, the Edge browser may crash frequently. It is hoped that this issue has been corrected in the official version.

17. Make a choice carefully

When upgrading to Windows 10:00, a pop-up settings window advises users to use new photo, movie, TV and Edge browser apps. If users agree to these options without thinking, all default applications will be set to Microsoft's own products. The solution is to go through these options carefully and then make a choice that suits you.

18. Blue screen crashes and reappears

This kind of "blue screen crash" phenomenon is rare now. If the user unfortunately encounters this situation, the PC should be reset. To complete the reset, the user needs to search the search box on the start menu for "reinstall" (reinstall), and then click "Remove everything and reinstall Windows." (remove everything and reinstall Windows).

19. The problem of touch screen mode still exists.

According to some users who use the preview version of Windows 10 on mobile devices, the touch screen is not very smooth to use. For example, when you try to drag windows, their edges are not easy to grasp, and the size of icons is not easy to manipulate through your fingers. For these problems, users can only improve the level of control through practice.

20. It's free now, but not in the future.

It is well known that Windows 10 only offers free upgrades for a year. After that, the retail version sold for $119. Therefore, don't delay your upgrade plan.
