    Got it in one!!!!!!!!!!

    Previously M$ would go all out to stop pirated copies being activated, sometimes even affecting legit users. BUT now M$ like Google now see revenue not from the their product, BUT services. They see their operating systems as "gateways" to them providing services to you. Apple started this and showed how successful this is, and M$ is catching up.

    So M$ aint too worried about who gets activated. In fact the more the merrier. The bigger number of people using Windows 10, the bigger the customer base to plunder with services

    Yep, MTK will work out-of-the-box for Office 15 :D.

    AGAIN: No need to backup any of those licenses. Office is Volume (expiration) and Win 10 Free Upgrade needs online activation, THIS IS MANDATORY, No OFFLINE BACKUP/RESTORE POSSIBLE SO FAR.

    It all depends on your graphics card what version you get
    Whether it be 12 or 11.2

    Does that mean that one system locale is faster than another?
    Or it's just 'en-gb' version itself slower or buggy than 'us'? If so, is there is some more info about this 'feature'?

    Sometimes I get confused over the DirectX. It reads DirecctX 12 in two previous builds and now I am having Direct X version 11.2. I am having Intel HD 4000.

    I don't think that bothers them at all. I think they see an opportunity to save billions a year (maybe a ted exaggerated) if they only have one OS to support going forward and the way this one is designed they won't have to start over for years if ever.

    Hi s1ave77:

    Let me give you the last steps:

    0. Run Microsoft Toolkit 2.5.3 and get Activation Backup for Office 2013 (under Windows 8.1)
    1. Update to Windows 10 (run setup) from the USB and check Window is activated
    2. Run Microsoft Toolkit 2.5.3 to re-activate Office 2013, after Windows 10 update
    3. Run Microsoft Toolkit 2.5.3 and get Activation Backup for Windows 10 and Office 2013
    4. Run a Windows 10 Clean Installation from the USB
    5. Install Office 2013
    6. Run Microsoft Toolkit 2.5.3 and get Activation Restore for Windows 10 and Office 2013

    Can you confirm me please?

    Thanks for your help.

    nope, that's too long sighted, they still have to support 7 for many years to come, and windows 8, hell, they are even supporting vista with updates for some years yet. It will be 20 odd years until that proved true.

    You won't need to try restore the windows 10 activation (not that its possible), it will already be activated.

    As Microsoft is a US base company there native software / language feels a lot faster and stable compared to say using Microsoft 10 Uk version..? hint while updates were coming throw Windows Update things were getting spat out again due to the region of the software updates being for US version and undoing themselves when the system would reboot as requested ..

    Also i was using cortana asking the simplest things and would get in the search box sort of like a enigma code going throw the box also stuff like startup menu on the left side would flicker or crash randomly to a point where i would need to to use google to find the reset code also apps would open and close straight away ...
