    I'm not sure about VPN, haven't tried it yet. However, I can view the tcp/ip properties of my connection via the old control panel.

    Lots of people in this thread have upgraded and not had the same problems as you. You are unlucky I'm afraid but the process was never going to be 100% success for every machine.

    Maybe just depend on Apps used. For both installs I run at the moment, VPN is working well and that's for Pro and Enterprise!

    In the old control panel, It's not accessible on VPN connections.

    Hi

    1st ty Murphy78 for the links.

    1. If this is close to RTM and the start menu stays clutter so you need to scroll through a long list of useless appz than it will be classic start menu and not a whole lot different than windows 8.1. You can not even click and drag a shortcut to the desktop. It is so non-modable it should be called OS10.1. ​

    2. The half baked settlings/control does not really work for me as now there are two control panels. One for a mouse and one for your thumbs. Put it all in one place I care less about the ui​

    3. Trying to intergrade small devices with multi-monitor workstation continues to be cumbersome and appears that it still does not give either a smooth experience. We have home, pro, ent, ent 2015 LTSB, all with N versions but no distinction between if your monitor is 60" (150) or 6" (15). It must be a resource thing and thank god the game developers have more resources since if not we would all be playing one game. There is so much software out their I really can not for the life of me understand why M$ is so pigheaded not the separate development and produce awesome on both. $h!t boys if you do not have the room build an addition we all know you have the cash​

    4. It will take a while for drivers to mature to what 7 and/or 8 are, think intel will support usb3 in 10 or will win 7 still best. That being the case who is really hot and bothered to install this for a main os as the apps are childish and have no place on a work machine. I will do it for education but where the money is it is definitely win 7 is the new xp.​

    Regards

    Are you able to upgrade a Windows 8.1 Pro activated via KMS to Windows 10 Pro and retain activation? Would it keep the days remaining or would it convert into a permanent retail activation?

    Hi

    Just upgraded two licenced 8.1 pro boxes using the 10240 ISO and both are activated. These boxes had previously had insider preview on them.

    These were valid licences which had been factory reset and upgraded.

    All good or so j thought. Just took a laptop with windows 8 home and tried to do the same. It keeps asking for a product key. This has never had insider preview on it. Again it's a valid licence.

    What gives. Have MS stopped me upgrading if you're not a previous insider?

    Thanks

    Just wait few more days, you will get upgraded. Or wait for official word from MS.

    Can anyone confirm that clean install of Win 10 build 10240 still gets permanently activated after having upgrade once? I mean previously people were talking about activation servers shut downed for clean installs, are they still? I wish to clean install again due to some driver issues. I did a clean 10240 install once and got activated automatically without MSA.

    I'm sure several have posted that they have done this okay.

    If stays as a KMS client then days remaining are irrelevant really, current local KMS solutions are working fine and there's an online host which ppl are activating/renewing from.

    Code:
    kms.xspace.in

    You need to upgrade it using a Windows 10 Home ISO, not a Windows 10 Pro ISO.

    confirmed... it's ESSENTIAL to upgrade from previous activated system to win10 KEEPING DATA AND SETTINGS, most important are SETTINGS... if you do so, win10 will be activated, and then you can wipe everything and install fresh win10, it will ask for a serial a couple of times but just skip them, and when you reach desktop and go check for activation status, it will be activated... just finished this, now looking for missing drivers...
